[Chapter 268 Chapter 268 Pray for the Country]
Wang Pingyuan did not ask Cheng Liyan how to write the letter of introduction, but simply told him that he would send two blank sheets of paper and let him write it himself.
Cheng Liyan did not refuse.
To be honest, this is a particularly chaotic era.
They say the management is strict. If they want to investigate someone, they would like to find out everything about your ancestors.
But if you say that the management is not strict enough, the public security, procuratorial and judicial departments have all been overthrown, and in many places there is not even someone in charge of household registration. Everything is based on revolution.
It is normal for household registration to be lost or for the household registration room to be occupied for other purposes.
Without careful investigation, no one can tell who is in the jurisdiction and what their names are.
Wang Pingyuan benefited from Cheng Liyan's help.
Because of the food sent by Cheng Liyan, their brigade became the only brigade in the entire commune where no one went out to beg for food, and thus caught the attention of the commune leaders.
Later, the leaders investigated him and found out that he had close ties with the 125th Division headquarters in Binhai. When the troops came for field training, they actually specifically requested to go to such a remote and far-flung brigade.
Wang Pingyuan, who had such resources, immediately made the commune leaders look up to him even more.
This led to the opportunity for him to be officially transferred to the commune to be responsible for military and civilian service.
Thanks to Cheng Liyan, Wang Pingyuan not only had a formal position overnight, but also because he had been discharged from the army due to injury and had military merits, the leaders did him a favor and promoted him directly to a senior official after transferring him to the commune.
Although I don’t have any real job, at least I have the status of a cadre, and I will have a future to look forward to.
Wang Pingyuan knew very well that if it weren't for Cheng Liyan's help in the past, he would not have the benefits he has now.
Even if he had not refused the army's arrangement and went to work in the commune directly after retiring, he was an injured veteran with no background or connections. What kind of job could the commune arrange for him even if he went to the commune?
It would be great if he could be assigned to work as a gatekeeper in some unit!
Therefore, Wang Pingyuan is grateful to Cheng Liyan and also trusts him.
Not to mention that Cheng Liyan was the guarantor, he believed that this person would not do anything against the rules.
Even if Cheng Liyan really asked Wang Pingyuan to do something that would put his head on the line, Wang Pingyuan would not even stumble!
Cheng Liyan was very grateful for his comrades' trust and he did not explain further.
Faced with such comradeship, there was no point in him explaining it with nonsense.
He just said, "Okay, then hurry up and send it to me. I need it urgently. I'll call you when my son's full moon. As his godfather, you must come over to celebrate your godson's full moon!"
These words made Wang Pingyuan laugh again, feeling extremely satisfied.
While Cheng Liyan was busy confirming the old lady's identity, Madam Shen was also not idle.
The old lady was thinking about asking her family to prepare some more things for her daughter.
Before she came, she had to imagine what her daughter needed out of thin air, and even if she thought about it carefully, there would definitely be deviations.
For example, she is used to it and wants to use the best of everything.
Even though my daughter told me many times to keep a low profile and be careful about the impact, she actually couldn't really understand it at that time.
The things she chooses are usually low-key yet luxurious.
It doesn’t seem like a big deal when I look at it at home, but if I put it in my daughter’s current home, it does look a bit out of place.
No wonder my daughter didn't use all the cups, plates, teacups, fabrics and household items I sent her.
After taking a look around the house today, the old lady already knew what to do.
For example, the surface of this quilt cannot be changed, and it has to be made of somewhat rough cotton cloth, but the lining can be changed.
You can replace cotton with silk, which will be much lighter and softer...
After sorting out her thoughts, the old lady sat down at the desk in the cottage, picked up the paper and pen that Cheng Liyan had prepared for her, and began to write slowly.
Not to mention how Old Madam Shen is planning for her daughter's family, let's just talk about how Shen's eldest daughter-in-law, Shen Junyuan's wife Xiang Chunyun, was shocked when she heard those words after being called by her father-in-law!
It can be said that Xiang Chunyun's knowledge of more than 20 years was shattered when she found out that her mother-in-law went to her sister-in-law through that plate!
So much so that after her father-in-law formally handed the plate to her, Xiang Chunyun's hands were shaking as she held the plate.
But even if she was shaking again, she held the plate tightly and didn't dare to let go.
It can be said that at that moment, Xiang Chunyun felt that even if he died, the plate could not have any scratches!
Xiang Chunyun didn't know how he got out of the main courtyard.
If her husband hadn't been there to support her, she probably wouldn't have been able to walk.
But even so, Xiang Chunyun had no time to adjust his mood.
The first thing she did after returning to her own courtyard was to call her confidants and ask them to spread the news.
It is said that the mother-in-law dreamed of her aunt who had become a fairy. Her aunt asked her to recite 3,000 volumes of Buddhist scriptures in the Buddhist temple to pray for the country in order to reduce the killing spirit caused by the previous war.
From today on, my mother-in-law will stay indoors and not go out anymore, saying that she wants to recite sutras sincerely in the Buddhist temple.
After dealing with this matter, Xiang Chunyun summoned the person in charge of the household and rearranged the household affairs.
In short, from today on, everyone in the family must keep a low profile.
In addition, the family’s meals should be reduced, and there should be one vegetarian day per week for the whole family.
Although the Prime Minister's Office could not announce this matter publicly, it would certainly have to use various details to make outsiders believe it.
Her old lady did dream of being enlightened by the goddess. Now she stays indoors and recites scriptures in the Buddhist temple to pray for the country.
As for how long should we recite the scriptures?
Who knows then?
That depends on when the goddess will give the oracle again.
When Mrs. Shen was at home, she had actually handed over most of the household chores to Xiang Chunyun to handle, so making these arrangements was not a difficult task for Xiang Chunyun, and she arranged them quickly.
However, the white jade plate became her biggest concern at the moment. She felt a little scared just looking at it.
I have no idea how to place it.
In particular, my father-in-law and husband specifically pointed out that there was absolutely no pattern to the things my sister-in-law sent back.
Usually a note is written first, and then the things come.
Therefore, this jade plate must never be seen by others!
Therefore, there was originally a meeting room in the inner courtyard, and Xiang Chunyun usually handled household affairs in the meeting room.
But from today on, she decided to temporarily arrange the meeting place in the yard where they lived.
It was the small flower hall next to her inner room.
She placed the white jade plate in the inner room.
In this way, even when distributing work, Xiang Chunyun could ensure that she could see the plate through the door and ensure that the plate would never leave her sight.
After Xiang Chunyun took the plate back, he never dared to take his eyes off it for a moment.
I was afraid that I didn't see anything and something would happen to catch me off guard.
But even though everything that needed to be arranged had been completed, there was no movement at all from the jade plate.
It just sat there quietly on the table, no different from any other plate.
Seeing this situation, Xiang Chunyun couldn't tell how he felt.
Curiosity mixed with a little disappointment?
Fortunately, her disappointment did not last long.
Just when she sent everyone around her away and stared at the plate in a daze, a piece of paper with densely written words suddenly appeared from the plate!
