Lin Xiujuan and Bai Zhenguo were still very sad on their way back.
"When do you think we can retire? It's not good to be busy all day. I really want to be here with Junjun and my grandson!"
Bai Zhenguo complained a few words, why couldn't he retire earlier?
Lin Xiujuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and then she looked at the scenery outside, feeling a little sad.
Suddenly, a sentence Bai Zhenguo said before popped up in my mind.
Then I couldn't help teasing him, "I remember two years ago you kept saying you wanted to work until you were 70 and didn't want to retire. It would be too boring to go home after retirement, right?"
Bai Zhenguo was so stunned by these words that he couldn't say anything.
Because he actually said this before.
Lin Xiujuan was laughing beside her.
After laughing for a while, she opened the bag and found a lot of food inside. In addition to the nutritional supplements that Shen Youran bought for them, she also bought them new clothes.
There was also beef sauce and other food for them.
Looking at these things, Lin Xiujuan's eyes became moist, and Bai Zhenguo also felt sad.
How come the daughter they found was so good?
…
It's Monday again.
Zhou Xiaohui was very happy when she went to the hospital today, because Lu Yifan said that he would talk to Shen Youran about the house today and asked her to move out within three days.
I will be able to live in the family quarters soon, so it doesn’t matter even if the matter is discussed there.
Have your own strategies for dealing with it.
Besides, it’s been almost a month since that incident happened, and no one should mention it again.
Zhou Xiaohui felt very proud when she thought that Shen Youran had no house to live in and had to sleep on the streets.
Lu Yifan arrived at the army early in the morning.
I thought I would go over to inspect it later and talk to Shen Youran about the house when I saw her, but I didn't expect that I never saw her.
Shen Youran is now in the commander's office. Besides her, there are also Lu Zheng and those officers who were trained before.
The commander's face was filled with joy.
"The leader has approved it and asked me to follow Comrade Shen's method and conduct training in our military region first. We will review the results after a month and then promote it to other military regions."
Hearing this, everyone present was very happy.
"The leader is indeed wise, and he should promote it!"
"Yes, yes, yes, if this can be promoted to other military regions, it will definitely be very powerful."
"The most important thing is that we benefit first. Our military district will definitely take first place in the next military district competition!"
"Comrade Shen has made the greatest contribution. Doesn't the commander intend to reward her?"
"I also think Comrade Shen has made great contributions!"
These military officers in high positions all admired Shen Youran very much, so of course they had to say a few words for her.
The commander heard what everyone said and stared at them.
"Even you think Comrade Shen is very powerful and has made great contributions. Don't I think so too?"
“You guys!”
He said this with a speechless curl of his lips.
Everybody chuckled.
Then the division commander said, "Both I and the higher-ups think that Comrade Shen has made great contributions, so in addition to giving her a bonus, the army has decided to promote her to battalion commander."
After these words were spoken, everyone looked at Shen Youran with admiration.
None of them felt dissatisfied, and some even felt that this position was a bit low.
But now there is only one vacant position for battalion commander. Although the position of deputy regiment commander is still vacant, if he is promoted directly to that position, he will definitely be criticized.
So let's just leave it at that for now. He will surely make more contributions in the future, and it would be great if he could be promoted slowly.
"Congratulations, Comrade Shen."
"From now on, you should call me Captain Shen."
"You should have called Captain Shen a long time ago, right?"
"Yes, yes, yes, you have made so many contributions, you should have been the battalion commander a long time ago!"
Everyone congratulated him, and Shen Youran smiled faintly.
Finally I was able to reach this position.
"Thank you, Commander, and my superiors, for your appreciation of me. I have one more favor to ask." Shen Youran looked at the commander.
The commander was stunned for a moment, and no one else said anything.
Shen Youran straightened his back.
"Everyone knows that I have an agreement with my ex-husband, Captain Lu, that I must move out of the house he lent me within a year. Now that I have been promoted to battalion commander, can the division commander give me a little help through the back door?"
Shen Youran smiled with a hint of embarrassment.
"I want to apply for a house, can I get it approved earlier?"
The division commander burst into laughter upon hearing this, then looked at the guard next to him and said, "Xiao Liu, you should do this yourself."
"Why are you still using backdoors? You have made great contributions. I feel that promoting you to the position of battalion commander is a lack of ability, so I can only give you more bonuses."
"You have been promoted to the position of battalion commander. According to the rules, you can apply for it. It's just a matter of how quickly it will be approved. I'll ask Xiao Liu to urge you to do that."
After the commander finished speaking, everyone else nodded.
Then I thought about what she said.
She divorced Lu Yifan a year ago, and then resolutely joined the army as a female soldier.
In just one year, he has transformed from an ordinary soldier to the battalion commander today, and his future is limitless.
Everyone present thought Shen Youran was really awesome.
It is not easy for a female soldier to rely on her own strength to reach her current position step by step.
It is beyond their reach.
Especially those who have spent three to five years to reach their current position, all truly admire Shen Youran.
"Thank you, Master."
After talking for a while, Shen Youran finished expressing his thoughts and the teacher clapped his hands.
"Then follow your method. Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, I will call all the officials to a meeting and pass on this order."
"Please help me arrange the time according to the order of the camps."
The teacher felt that Shen Youran was more talented and organized in this area and could do it better than himself, so he gave this small task to her.
"yes!"
The meeting is adjourned.
Everyone else left, and the commander asked Shen Youran to stay for a while.
"Is there anything else the commander wants to talk to me about?"
Shen Youran felt a little strange.
He now couldn't wait to share the news of his promotion with Qin Ruxue and Bai Lishuang.
Before the library appeared in the space, she was still wondering whether she should work overtime during the New Year.
For example, being on duty or carrying out a mission.
I have to be promoted to battalion commander as soon as possible so that I can get a house.
Otherwise, after the New Year, when the agreed time between her and Lu Yifan comes, where will they live?
It was really inappropriate to live in the house allocated to me by Lu Zheng before marrying him.
