Speaking of Ning Ge's identity, it does make people feel somewhat awkward.
Old Master Ning joined the army to fight the enemy at a young age; in wartime, one never knew when they might give their life, so he married early, taking Madam Chen Lin as his first wife. The couple had their eldest son, Ning Gang, second son, Ning Li, and their daughter, Ning Zhen, and their relationship was very good.
After the liberation, Old Master Ning, because of his commendable military service during the resistance against Japan, rose through the ranks to become the Commander of the Military Region. With improved living conditions and many children, and because his wife was in poor health, a nanny was hired to help with household chores and caring for the children.
The nanny, Ah Xiu, came to their home when Ning Gang was twelve, mainly to take care of the youngest daughter, Zhener.
