Chapter 89 Commendation

The commendation ceremony at the camp will be held two days later.

All the military dependents in the family compound accompanied their husbands to the event.

Some military dependents who couldn't go to provide support due to work reasons, and some who made excuses to avoid going, were so jealous when they learned about this commendation meeting that they were practically grinding their teeth in envy.

At the time, the military was talking about volunteers, which meant that volunteers wouldn't get any benefits and would have to work themselves to the bone to help. Of course, they weren't willing to do that.

Who would have thought that being a volunteer would earn me recognition from the military!

The commendation ceremony was held in an open space in the military base, and the ceremony was exactly the same as the weekly routine in schools in the modern world.

Jiang Ning was the first to be called up to the stage, and later, the military families who participated in the earthquake relief efforts came up to the stage one by one.

Commander Liang displayed his leadership qualities by handing out certificates and awards to each person. The awards included military water bottles and three enamel mugs printed with the four characters "Capital Military Region" for each person.

The military dependents on the stage, holding certificates and awards, were all beaming with joy.

The military families watching the commendation ceremony were incredibly envious. The certificates issued by the military region represent honor, and those awards would make them incredibly prestigious when guests came over.

However, they were already very happy to be able to stand on the stage to receive the award, but when Commander Liang presented the award to Jiang Ning, he directly took out two brocade banners.

One side reads "Outstanding Military Family Member," and the other side reads "High Medical Ethics and Superb Medical Skills."

Although certificates of merit are also honors, a banner is an even higher honor than a certificate of merit, and it is an honor that lasts a lifetime!

Jiang Ning held a banner in each hand, along with the same rewards as the military families. Brigade Commander Liang handed them to the orderly beside him. Just when Jiang Ning thought it was over, Brigade Commander Liang suddenly took out a wad of cash from his pocket.

When he told Jiang Ning that he had 600 yuan here, Jiang Ning was stunned for a moment.

Six hundred?

That's a lot of money.

Commander Liang only told Jiang Ning the exact amount of money; the others only saw the stack of money but couldn't tell how much it was.

Brigade Commander Liang placed the money in Jiang Ning's hand. "This is a reward from our military region and the Nanling Military Region. Each of them gave you three hundred. The Nanling side said that you can't just give us a banner to settle the matter after saving a life."

Everyone on and off stage stared wide-eyed when they saw Commander Liang pull out so much money.

The Capital Military Region gave Jiang Ning 300 yuan not only because she went to the disaster area to provide support, but also because she had contributed to the capture of the spies.

Of course, Brigade Commander Liang wouldn't reveal this. He only said on stage that the money was a reward from another military region for Jiang Ning saving an officer.

When the family members receiving the award on the stage heard this, they secretly suppressed their feelings of envy and jealousy, after all, they didn't have Jiang Ning's ability to bring people back to life.

Jiang Ning didn't stand on ceremony and accepted the money.

Brigade Commander Liang also asked a photographer to take some photos of the commendation ceremony.

All the military dependents in the entire family compound attended this commendation meeting.

This time, Jiang Ning became a household name in the military dependents' compound.

It's no longer a name based on her appearance, but a name that praises her medical skills.

The fame she gained earlier was merely fodder for gossip, but the fame she gained later was genuine. When Jiang Ning stepped off the stage, her sister-in-law even came up to her, saying she felt unwell and hoping Jiang Ning could take a look.

Jiang Ning didn't refuse, and even promoted Old Master Huang's clinic, saying that she usually saw patients there.

After the commendation ceremony, Jiang Ning and Shen Mo went home to their family compound together.

She even felt a little hot from receiving the 600 yuan reward. 600 yuan is not a small amount these days. When a military wife asked her about it earlier, she vaguely said that she didn't know and hadn't counted it yet.

Perhaps Jiang Ning's troubled expression was too obvious, Shen Mo asked, "Don't feel anything, this is a reward you deserve."

Jiang Ning wasn't pretentious. When she transmigrated to this world, she only had a few dollars on her. This was the first time she had experienced the horror of poverty, and she gradually became a little money-grubber.

So she was especially happy when she got more than a thousand yuan back from Jiang Ting.

But as a reward, 600 yuan is a bit too much.

"The Nanling Military Region is grateful for your life-saving grace, and you can accept this three hundred yuan. As for our military region..." Shen Mo lowered his voice, which sounded low and deep, "it's because you made a great contribution in catching the spy this time."

Jiang Ning was somewhat surprised. She knew that Feng Chuan had been arrested, but she didn't expect that Shen Mo would tell Commander Liang and the others about her report.

Shen Mo reached out and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. "So, you deserve the reward the military region gave you."

"We can't talk about catching spies, let alone publicize it. So when we were giving the commendation, Brigade Commander Liang only mentioned your support. The organization will remember your merit in catching spies, so don't worry."

"I see." Jiang Ning hadn't expected that the three hundred yuan had such a connection to her contribution. She nodded obediently. "I don't care about this contribution. You must be keeping it a secret for my safety."

Shen Mo is growing more and more fond of his wife.

If it were someone else, having performed such a great service, they would surely want to publicize it so that everyone knows.

The two walked to the entrance of the family compound and were about to enter when suddenly a figure rushed over. The person was covered in blood and his eyes were red as he grabbed Jiang Ning's arm.

The person who came was very strong, and Jiang Ning subconsciously frowned as she looked at him.

Huang Xiaodong?

Shen Mo quickly pried the person's hand off, his brows furrowing.

Huang Xiaodong was panting heavily, "Jiang... Jiang Ning, please save my grandfather!"

"Huang Xiaodong? What's wrong?" Jiang Ning frowned.

"I...I owed money outside...Today they suddenly came to the clinic, and when they were hitting me with sticks...my grandfather rushed out and was hit on the back of the head..."

His words were incoherent, but Jiang Ning grasped the key points.

Old Master Huang is in trouble.

Jiang Ning turned and walked towards the clinic, and Shen Mo followed.

She walked quickly and learned about the situation from Huang Xiaodong on the way. Since it concerned his only relative, he dared not lie.

After learning the whole story, Jiang Ning's expression immediately turned cold.
