Chapter 277 A New Son

Several heavy snowfalls before the New Year collapsed the houses of several nearby villagers.

Although it was New Year's Day, Ning Jingmo received a request for help from the villagers and still took the soldiers to help the villagers repair their houses.

I thought I could eat hot dumplings when I came back, but I didn't expect to encounter this.

After everyone calmed down, Ning Jingmo clapped his hands and signaled, "Everyone, please be quiet. I would like to take this opportunity to say a few words to everyone.

First, I would like to wish you all a happy New Year and all the best in the new year!

Second, please remember that safety is no small matter and must not be taken lightly at any time.

Today's incident is a lesson for us. Fortunately, Isandra had first aid knowledge, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."

That night, Minister Li took his wife and son Xiaoqiang to Ning Jingmo's dormitory.

Carrying large and small bags in his hands.

Ning Jingmo smiled and joked, "The New Year's goods have already been distributed, why are there so many things sent again? It seems that you have hidden a lot of good things."

Minister Li placed the things directly in front of Xia Songlan and explained, "You are wrongly accusing me. I bought these in the town this afternoon to thank you."

Afraid that Ning Jingmo wouldn't believe him, he pulled up his trouser legs to reveal his wet trouser legs, "Look, my trouser legs are all wet from stepping on the snow."

Then he turned to Xia Songlan and said, "Comrade Songlan, thank you for saving Xiaoqiang. You are our Xiaoqiang's lifesaver."

She said she pushed Xiaoqiang to the front and told him to kneel down and call her mom.

Ning Jingmo was unhappy, "Hey, what do you mean? Why do you let your son call my wife mom?"

But Xiaoqiang was really obedient. He knelt down and called Xia Songlan "Mom" in a crisp and bright voice.

Even Ning Ziqing and Ning Tianya, who were playing in the inner room, heard it and came out curiously.

Xia Songlan hurriedly went to pull Xiaoqiang, "What are you doing? Hurry up, hurry up, it's just a piece of cake."

Mrs. Li pinched the corner of her clothes and knelt down.

Xia Songlan hurriedly went to help Li's sister-in-law, "Sister-in-law, why are you kneeling down? Get up quickly, get up quickly. There's really no need to do this. This is what I should do."

Mrs. Li was not good at speaking, and her voice was choked with sobs, "You are our Xiaoqiang's lifesaver. Without you, Xiaoqiang might not be here right now.

I really don’t know how to repay you.”

Xia Songlan pulled her up forcefully and said, "Okay, no more talking.

First of all, I am a doctor, and saving lives is my job. Secondly, I will save people even if they are strangers.

Besides, Jing Mo and Minister Li are colleagues and comrades-in-arms, and we are friends, so it is impossible for me to just stand by and watch him die.

This is what I should do, no thanks needed."

Minister Li said sincerely: "I have to thank you, Comrade Song Lan, you don't know that my family has only one son for three generations.

It’s strange, my grandfather’s generation only had one son, my father.

My father and mother have worked hard all their lives, but I am the only one.

We have been married for almost ten years, and I am almost 40 years old when I had this only son.

He was saved by you. If he hadn’t survived, our Li family would have been extinct.

You are truly a great benefactor to our entire family.

My wife and I have decided that Xiaoqiang will recognize you from now on. You are his godmother, and Chief of Staff Ning is his godfather."

As he said this, he pressed Xiaoqiang's head again and said, "Hurry up and kowtow to your godfather.

Xiao Qiang quickly lay down, "Godfather."

Ning Jingmo was very happy. "Okay, since you called me and kowtowed, fine... I'll just treat you as having another son."

After hearing what he said, Xia Songlan could only agree, "It just so happens that I think Ziqing and Tianya don't have brothers or sisters to take care of them.

This is perfect, they both have a brother, and I have another son."

Then he waved at Ning Ziqing and Ning Tianya, "Come and call me brother."

The two children didn't know what was going on, but they walked to Xia Songlan obediently and shouted to Xiaoqiang in unison: "Brother!"

Xiaoqiang is lively and has the same personality as Minister Li, and he has a keen eye.

Immediately, my younger brothers and sisters started calling me.

Xia Songlan thought that she couldn't just acknowledge this son for nothing. She couldn't just respond to him calling her mom without even giving him a gift, right?

But this happened suddenly, and I hadn't prepared in advance, so I couldn't come up with any valuable gifts at the moment. Suddenly, I touched the jade pendant on my neck and took it off.

He waved to Xiaoqiang, "Xiaoqiang, come here."

She handed the jade pendant to Xiaoqiang and said, "This is the jade pendant my grandmother gave me. Jade can nourish people. I have worn it for many years.

This red string was woven by my mother personally for me years ago. I am giving it to you now as a gift from your godmother."

Minister Li declined hurriedly, "No, this is too valuable. The quality of the jade is good. How can you give it to a child?"

Xia Songlan smiled and shook her head, "No matter how good something is, it's just an object. Who made me like our Xiaoqiang? I'll give it to him as a gift first.

It is said that men wear Guanyin and women wear Buddha.

When my grandmother gave it to me, she said I should wear a Buddha pendant, but I ended up choosing a Guanyin pendant.

Now I think that maybe Xiaoqiang and I were meant to be together, and I had already chosen a gift for him at that time."

Having said that, he put it around Xiaoqiang's neck without waiting for Minister Li and Mrs. Li to refuse.

Xiaoqiang liked it very much and looked at it again and again.

Minister Li patted his hands and said, "Hey, take your dirty hands away. This is not an ordinary thing. You must take good care of it and don't lose it."

As he said that, he stuffed it into his clothes.

This pendant has been with Xiaoqiang since then. Even when he grew up and got a job, he never took it off.

Every year he would go to pay New Year's greetings to Xia Songlan, and then ask Xia Songlan to help him braid a red string and put on the pendant.

By the next day, many people knew about this.

Staff Officer Zhao teased Minister Li, "Old Li is great. Just a dumpling has made you and Chief of Staff Ning become relatives.

You can't just say that your Xiaoqiang should recognize him as his godfather, you should let Xiaoqiang take care of him as his real father."

Minister Li stiffened his neck, "Do you need me to tell you? I've already told the kid in our family that even if he is not filial to us, he has to be nice to Old Ning and his wife.

We must be especially nice to Songlan. If it weren’t for Songlan, our kid wouldn’t be where he is right now.”

"Puh, puh, puh, it's New Year's Day, what nonsense are you talking about? Wasn't he rescued? I was just joking with you, why are you talking nonsense?"

Staff Officer Zhao quickly spat a few more times.

Minister Li, "To be honest, I used to be narrow-minded and just wanted to have more contact with Chief of Staff Ning.

I thought I could make progress through his family connections, but now I think I was so short-sighted.

They have been able to get to where they are today entirely through their own efforts. Both of them are good people.

Forget it, let’s not talk about it anymore. All the things in the past are in the past. We will just be relatives from now on. I don’t want to think about anything else.”

Staff Officer Qian patted Minister Li on the shoulder and said, "When you spend more time with Lao Ning, you will find that he is different from us.

He stands higher than us, has a bigger vision than us, and has a longer perspective than us.

In the future, he will be someone we can never reach even if we look up to him."
