Chapter 444 Mother's Nature
Chapter 444 Mother's Nature
Soon it was time for the two children to start school.
I don’t know whether the children had discussed it in advance or they were particularly independent, but they refused to let Ning Jingmo and Xia Songlan send them off, and they all chose to live in the school dormitory.
According to the school's requirements, Ning Ziqing had to live on campus, but Ning Tianya could have gone home, but she still chose to live on campus.
And they call it training their ability to live independently.
Ning Jingmo wholeheartedly agreed with the children's choice.
The day after the children went back to school, Wang Qiuping and Ning Shenghe, the old couple, went out traveling again.
Only Ning Jingmo and Xia Songlan were left at home.
Xia Songlan felt a little disappointed. "Why do I feel like my home has suddenly become deserted?"
Ning Jingmo was happy to see this happen, and put his arm around Xia Songlan's shoulders, "Isn't this good? We have rarely been able to enjoy our own world since we got married.
I left home right after I got married, and when I came back I became a father of two children at once.
Now that I've kicked these two little guys out, I can finally hug my sweet-smelling wife as I please."
Xia Songlan raised her hand as if to hit him again, but remembering that Ning Jingmo had already raised his opinion a few days ago, she withdrew her hand.
Ning Jingmo shamelessly moved his face closer and said, "What's the matter? I don't want to hit you. It's okay. A slap in the face is fine.
I am not like Qi Bin, who was scratched on the face by Zhang Rui but did not dare to admit it and insisted that it was scratched by a cat.
Whose cat scratched him on the face?
Xia Songlan was curious, "When did it happen? How come I don't know about it?"
"Just a few days ago, Qi Bin provoked Zhang Rui, and the couple came to blows.
Of course, it was Zhang Rui who hit Qi Bin unilaterally, and Qi Bin did not dare to fight back. If that guy had fought back, Zhang Rui would have been useless now. "
Xia Songlan curled her lips, "He has the nerve to fight back, a grown man."
Ning Jingmo nodded, "Yes, yes, that's what I said. How can a man fight with his wife?
You must not fight back when you are hit, and you must not respond when you are scolded.
If a daughter-in-law hits us, it means she loves us; if a daughter-in-law scolds us, it means she is affectionate towards us.
Beating is love, scolding is care."
Xia Songlan spat, "Slippery tongue, stop changing the subject, tell me what's going on."
“It’s because their son insisted on going to the island after graduating from military school.
Zhang Rui didn't support it, saying that the life there was too hard.
Qi Bin, however, thinks that a real man has ambitions and can go anywhere.
Just because of such a small thing, the couple had a huge quarrel.
By the way, Qi Bin also asked you to find some time to ask Zhang Rui to help her see if she has reached menopause. Her temper is too abnormal. "
Xia Songlan sighed at the side, "Actually, I can understand Sister Zhang Rui's thoughts. If it were me, I wouldn't want Ziqing to go to the island to suffer.
It’s the nature of being a mother.”
Ning Jingmo immediately patted his chest and assured, "Songlan, don't worry, I will have to ask for your consent before I go to Ziqing in the future.
If you don't agree, I'll tie him up at home and not allow him to go."
"Don't give me that. I won't let my narrow-minded thinking affect Ziqing. I will stick to Ziqing's ideas."
Ning Jingmo quickly flattered him, "My wife is still very reasonable.
Zhang Rui has been working in political work all her life, so how could she be so selfish and narrow-minded? Her thoughts are not pure at all.
I don't think you need to help her figure out whether she has reached menopause. You should let her go to the Party School for more training."
Xia Songlan couldn't help it this time, she raised her hand and patted him, "Don't meddle in other people's affairs."
In fact, Ning Jingmo was just talking, and he quickly took out two movie tickets from his pocket, "Song Lan, I bought movie tickets, let's go to the movies tonight!
Don’t cook, let’s eat out.”
"When did you buy the movie tickets? How come I didn't know?"
"This is a surprise, of course I can't let you know."
Xia Songlan hadn't been to the movies for a long time, so she was of course happy to accept the little romance that Ning Jingmo occasionally created.
I also changed into the new skirt I bought a few days ago.
When he came down from upstairs, Ning Jingmo was surprised at first, but then his eyes were full of disapproval.
"We are just an old couple going out to have a meal, there is no need to dress up so beautifully, isn't this giving others a bargain?
Look how soft and tender this little face is, how thin this little waist is, and how white these little legs are.
Oh no, no, let’s not go!”
Xia Songlan knew that Ning Jingmo was teasing her, so she urged him with a smile, "If you don't go, I'll go with someone else."
Ning Jingmo was just joking with her. He was already holding Xia Songlan's bag in his hand and followed her out the door.
The couple decided to eat at a dumpling restaurant near the cinema.
Ning Jingmo knew that Xia Songlan liked the ones with leek and egg filling, so he ordered a plate for her first.
I ordered a pork and green onion filling.
As soon as the dumplings were served, Ning Jingmo's eyes stopped at the entrance of the restaurant.
But he quickly took it back and did not attract Xia Songlan's attention.
He held the vinegar bottle and said to Xia Songlan, "There's only a little vinegar left. I'll ask the waiter to pour some new vinegar."
Xia Songlan stopped him and said, "Forget it, it's okay if you don't eat it."
"How can that be? If you don't dip your dumplings in vinegar, you'll have to eat fewer."
Then he walked towards the waiter.
But his eyes were still looking towards the hotel entrance.
While handing the vinegar bottle to the waiter and talking, he had already strode out of the restaurant.
The man at the door was sneakily taking pictures of Xia Songlan with a camera, and was caught by Ning Jingmo.
He was afraid that Xia Songlan was waiting anxiously inside, so he made a phone call first, and soon two people came and took the person away.
From beginning to end, Xia Songlan didn't notice anything.
I laughed so happily while watching the movie in the evening, and kept recalling the plot of the movie on the way back.
Ning Jingmo was also very cooperative and discussed the movie clips with her.
At night, after Xia Songlan fell asleep, he went to the study and made a phone call, "...Zhou Guoqing? How could it be him?
All I know is that he used to be a technician at the Fangshi Printing and Dyeing Factory, but was later laid off.
I haven’t heard of him in the past few years... Yes, he is Songlan’s cousin’s husband...
Hmm... OK... Let's investigate secretly first, so as not to alert the enemy."
Zhou Guoqing didn't expect that the first time he sent people to follow Xia Songlan and take pictures, they were discovered and caught red-handed.
What he could not have expected was that because of this small action of his, Ning Jingmo targeted him.
Xia Songlan has been busy with the production and manufacturing of medical devices recently.
Two years ago, Xia Songlan met Cui Jingquan, and with Cui Jingquan's help, she also established her own medical device manufacturing company.
Cui Jingquan first wanted to thank Xia Songlan for saving his father on the plane.
Secondly, he saw the strength behind Xia Songlan and, with the intention of making friends with her, he not only took the initiative to contact Xia Songlan many times to thank her for saving his life.
When he learned that Xia Songlan wanted to establish her own medical device manufacturing company, he provided her with multi-faceted help and advice.
In just two years, Xia Songlan's medical device company has been able to independently develop and put into production.
Xia Songlan still handed over the construction and specific operations of the factory to her cousin Zhang Beichen.
After several contacts with Cui Jingquan, Zhang Beichen found that this person had good qualities and was indeed a qualified businessman who was very good at research.
He also knew Xia Songlan's personality very well, so in future work, he would be the one to contact Cui Jingquan.
Later, he helped Cui Jingquan many times, as a way of repaying his kindness in helping him build the medical device production line.
Cui Jingquan saw through it but didn't say anything, still maintaining an attitude of "everyone is fine".
When the production line was officially put into operation, Zhang Beichen also invited Cui Jingquan. After all, he is the leader of the entire northern medical device industry.
Everyone visited the production line together and then went to a celebratory banquet.
The banquet was held at the International Hotel in the north of the city, a five-star hotel with a large banquet hall.
In order to build momentum for the company, Zhang Beichen invited many business partners.
In a short while, guests gathered.
Xia Songlan was not good at this kind of socializing. She just greeted a few people she knew and then hid in a corner to eat.
"What a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you here."
