1978: Female educated youth, don’t want an illiterate husband

Chapter 192 What? Xuemin, are you going to the battlefield? (Request full order)
"Come on, old man, it must be a good thing!"

She sent Feng Jiayou to Yanda early in the morning. Before they parted, she helped Cheng Xuemin tidy up his Zhongshan suit and spoke encouragingly.

When her mother mentioned this to her husband at the dinner table last night, Feng Jiayou and her family also thought about and analyzed it.

It was almost the same as the metaphor of the split of the Qin Dynasty, which alarmed the higher-ups.

Mr. Wu will definitely be very supportive!
But recently, many different voices have appeared in the local area, taking the opportunity to take advantage of Cheng Xuemin's lecture to start making sarcastic remarks.

To this!

Feng Jiayou's family was worried that Old Wu would blame Cheng Xuemin for talking too much.

Moreover, he dared to give such a large lecture without applying to him or seeking his approval.

So Feng Jiayou and her family are somewhat worried.

This was also what Feng's father had mentioned to Cheng Xuemin in the study room before. He was worried about the reaction after the lecture would be reported in major media outlets.

Therefore, I also gave a reminder to Cheng Xuemin that in the future, if there are large lectures like this and the topics are sensitive, he must remember to report them frequently.

Don't think it's troublesome, and don't be afraid that Mr. Wu will think it's troublesome.

Anyway, there is definitely nothing wrong in reporting frequently and keeping in touch with Mr. Wu frequently.

Feng's father advised Cheng Xuemin to calm down and relax on campus, but he didn't really want to be isolated from the world.

At least!

We still need to visit Mr. Wu frequently, and visit him every New Year and other festivals.

Because he, as the son-in-law, has already been labeled as Old Wu's man, and now he is even a pioneer, he cannot be satisfied with just being Old Wu's man.

It would be fine if we don't try to get involved, but since his son-in-law has plunged headfirst into it, let's lean over there!
Then you must become a direct descendant.

It's just a vanguard cannon. It will explode once and then disappear below. This is not acceptable.

So last night I told Cheng Xuemin to maintain a proper attitude when he goes to see Mr. Wu. Feng's father also said that Cheng Xuemin's attitude towards him in the study was very good before, and he hoped that he would continue to maintain it.

The attitude in the study that day...

Oh!
Cheng Xuemin remembered that no matter what Feng's father said, he would just answer: Yes, yes, yes, yes, you are right...

Ok!

Didn't the father-in-law turn pale at the time? Why did he bring this up again and ask Cheng Xuemin to keep it up?
After thinking it over in his mind, Cheng Xuemin smiled and said to his wife, "It must be a good thing. I know Mr. Wu. He usually doesn't call me if it's not a good thing!"

"Just brag!" Feng Jiayou straightened her man's collar and said in a stern and non-joking manner, "When you get there, don't be so playful as you are now!"

"If Elder Wu really scolds you, don't do anything rash. Just accept it with an open mind, okay?"

"I know! All right, you go in first, I'll go upstairs and sign in and then I'll be right there!"

"If you don't make it back by noon, you can walk back by yourself. Go slowly and be careful when crossing the road!"

Cheng Xuemin did not forget to give some instructions to the woman.

After saying goodbye to the woman, Cheng Xuemin first showed up in the office, popped his head out for a moment, and then took the opportunity to slip out.

My colleagues and professors in the office didn't say anything about this.

Moreover, only Cheng Xuemin was honest and showed up at the office almost every day. Like other teachers and professors, they were basically all located in the Yiyuan campus of Yanda University, and housing was arranged for them.

So basically, if they don’t have classes in the morning, they rarely come.

Even if I have classes in the morning, I would leave home and go directly to the classroom on time. It was rare for me to sit in the office for the whole afternoon or morning.

As for clocking in on time every morning?

nonexistent!

The school bell rings for students and teachers. Other teachers who don't have classes just pretend not to hear it.

and so!
Cheng Xuemin also hopes that Yanda can solve his housing problem and allocate him an apartment, which would be great.

This is not what Cheng Xuemin wished for.

Now Cheng Xuemin is at least a specially appointed lecturer of Yanda University, not to mention a formal on-the-job teacher of Yanda University. He is eligible for Yanda University's welfare housing allocation.

However, as many of Yanda's old professors and teachers passed away in the past two years, the housing problem has become tense.

Cheng Xuemin is a new teacher. Even if he is eligible for housing benefits, he has to stand aside and wait in line. It will definitely not be his turn in the next two years!

At about half past nine, Cheng Xuemin arrived at Zhonghai and waited outside Mr. Wu's office.

Secretary Yang greeted Cheng Xuemin politely, saying that Mr. Wu was very busy recently and his meeting was scheduled at ten o'clock, and then served Cheng Xuemin tea.

"Brother Yang, what is Mr. Wu's attitude towards my lecture that day?"

Attitude shouldn't be a problem!

Because when Cheng Xuemin came over this time and greeted Secretary Wu, this guy was very enthusiastic towards Cheng Xuemin.

Moreover, it is not a formal occasion. He is a few years older than Cheng Xuemin, so there is no need to call him Secretary Yang. Just call him by his name.

That's a good feeling!

Just from Secretary Yang's attitude towards him, Cheng Xuemin also realized that he had made another step forward on Mr. Wu's side.

Cheng Xuemin simply took advantage of the situation and directly addressed Secretary Yang as his brother, calling him Brother Yang!

"Xuemin, it's hard for me to explain this. Anyway, you will have a meeting with Mr. Wu later, so just handle it yourself!"

Secretary Yang said to Cheng Xuemin with a smile, but then changed the subject and said, "However, Mr. Wu called you here today, it should not be about your lecture!"

"If it's not about the lecture, then what is it?!"

Cheng Xuemin was shocked to learn that the reason Mr. Wu asked him to come over today was not about the lecture at Yan University that day. Then what was it?
But when Cheng Xuemin continued to question Secretary Yang, he had already made an excuse that he had other leaders to entertain, and asked Cheng Xuemin to wait here and he would come and call him at a certain time.

It was so mysterious that Cheng Xuemin's appetite was instantly whetted.

It turned out that it was not about giving a lecture at Yan University. He specially called Cheng Xuemin over to give him instructions on how to fight the next step in this battle.

But it was something else! What could it be?
Cheng Xuemin racked his brains but couldn't think of anything else. He was just a small author and currently a distinguished lecturer at Yanda University.

With this identity, Cheng Xuemin couldn't think of anything else he would do except writing articles for Mr. Wu or giving a lecture that day.

Since it’s not a long lecture, then it must be writing a manuscript?
Is it possible?
Due to the different voices on the fission of the Qin Dynasty, Mr. Wu wants him, the pioneer, to make another charge. Is it necessary to update the information?

But Secretary Yang just said that it's not about giving a big lecture. So Cheng Xuemin needs to write some manuscripts in other directions to divert the firepower?
Just as Cheng Xuemin was wondering why Mr. Wu had asked him to come over today, time passed quickly. When it was almost ten o'clock, Secretary Yang came back again and told Cheng Xuemin that he could come over!
"Okay, thank you Secretary Yang!"

Cheng Xuemin stood up, straightened his clothes, formally thanked Secretary Yang, and then followed him into Mr. Wu's office.

The office was still the same office, and Mr. Wu was actually still entertaining a leader inside.

Seeing Cheng Xuemin being led in, Old Wu raised his eyelids, slapped his thigh and shouted with a smile: "Look, Lao Shi, our pioneer is coming to you!"

"Whether our pioneers agree or not, I don't care!"

Mr. Wu joked with an old leader next to him, then greeted Cheng Xuemin and said, "Xuemin, you are here. Come and sit down. I just mentioned you to Mr. Shi."

"Hello, Mr. Wu, hello, old chief!"

Cheng Xuemin also quickly bowed and greeted him. As soon as he entered the room, Mr. Wu saw him and started joking with the old leader.

He said he was joking with the old leader, but Old Wu also said it for him to hear, to let Cheng Xuemin know that he had been looked for him today, not because Old Wu had any instructions for him, but because it was related to this old man in military uniform.

The old man in military uniform came to Mr. Wu specifically to find Cheng Xuemin, the pioneer, which made Cheng Xuemin even more suspicious and puzzled.

It seems like he has never had any contact with the army before?

Even if the manuscripts are published, they are rarely reprinted by the military’s People’s Liberation Army Daily or the People’s Liberation Army Literature and Art Press.

Therefore, Cheng Xuemin couldn't understand why there was an old man in military uniform waiting for him here at Mr. Wu's side.

"Comrade Xuemin, hello!" The old man in military uniform stood up, stretched out his hands and shook hands with Cheng Xuemin.

"Xuemin, let me introduce you!" Old Wu, who was standing next to him, also introduced Cheng Xuemin and said, "This is Lao Shi, who is in charge of the propaganda and art department of our General Political Department. He is here to call you, the pioneer, back to the team!"

The General Political Department’s propaganda and art department?
Cheng Xuemin was also very surprised after listening to Mr. Wu’s introduction. Then Mr. Wu said that this old leader actually came to call him, a young pioneer, back to the team?

Return to the team?

Which team are you joining?
How come there was no news in advance? This caught Cheng Xuemin completely off guard. He really couldn't understand what he was wanted to do?
But I still had to quickly greet him again, saying, "Hello, Mr. Shi!"

"Hello, Xuemin. Old Wu has also said that I am here to call on you, the young pioneer, to write an article for our soldiers who are fighting on the front line!"

"I just don't know if you have the time, Xuemin!"

Mr. Shi once again tightly grasped Cheng Xuemin's hand and explained in a concise and direct manner why he came to see Cheng Xuemin today.

Still writing articles!
Write an article for the warriors fighting on the front lines!
This……

Cheng Xuemin was shocked and surprised again. This Mr. Shi from the General Political Department came to him just to ask him to write an article?

It's just a commission to write an article, can Cheng Xuemin understand it this way?
But since it was an assignment for an article, why did Mr. Wu deliberately joke and remind Cheng Xuemin when he entered the door just now that whether Cheng Xuemin agreed or not depended on his own wishes?

A thought flashed through his mind, and Cheng Xuemin was about to nod and say yes politely!
But he was soon interrupted by Mr. Shi, who continued, "Xuemin, don't agree too soon, let's sit down and talk about it first. This is the situation of this manuscript!"

Then Mr. Wu gestured to Cheng Xuemin to sit down first so that they could have a good talk.

This made Cheng Xuemin even more suspicious and puzzled. He didn't understand what kind of show Mr. Wu and Mr. Shi were putting on for him.

"It's like this, students. There's a war going on in the south, and it's been going on for almost a month! Our General Political Department has also issued an instruction to arrange for some young cadres to go over there and bring some comfort to the soldiers fighting on the front lines."

"Our troops have already arranged for other young singers in song, dance, drama and singing! As for writing, Mr. Wu hopes to arrange for a young author to go over and express his condolences to the frontline soldiers on behalf of the cultural sector!"

"At the same time, I also hope to be at the front line and use the materials on the spot to write a heroic story!"

"So, since we are being asked to choose the general political officer, we will definitely choose you, the pioneer young general, Comrade Cheng Xuemin! We hope you can go south with the group, experience the front line in person, and help write a manuscript about the heroic deeds you have seen and heard!"

Mr. Shi briefly explained the situation to Cheng Xuemin, who was instantly shocked!

It turned out that Mr. Shi came over not only to ask him for an article, but also to have specific requirements for the article.

I want to write about the heroic deeds of the war going on over there, and I want to go south with the regiment to the front line in person!
No wonder Mr. Wu reminded himself just now that he had to ask Cheng Xuemin’s own opinion whether he was willing to go or not.

Go to the front line in person!
There was a real war going on over there, not just the war of words going on now. No wonder Mr. Wu looked so solemn after Mr. Shi explained the situation.

"Xuemin, this is the situation! For this article, I need you to go there in person, experience the battlefield in the south, interview more soldiers on the front line, and write an article about this war!"

"Of course, I also explained your situation to Lao Shi. You are preparing to take the college entrance examination this year, and your wife at home should be giving birth soon, right?!"

Old Wu then spoke up for Cheng Xuemin and explained Cheng Xuemin’s current situation!
Not to mention preparing for this year's college entrance examination, his wife is about to give birth. At this time, whether Cheng Xuemin can go to the front line to be a war writer depends on Cheng Xuemin's own wishes.

"Mr. Wu, my wife's due date is at the end of May, it's still early now!" Cheng Xuemin knew that Mr. Wu was speaking for him, but that was not an excuse for Cheng Xuemin to desert.

It was his lover who gave birth to the child, not Cheng Xuemin himself.

to be frank!
Cheng Xuemin certainly didn't want to be a deserter, nor was he afraid of going south to the front line, but this came too suddenly.

"May, that's coming soon! It's already March!" Old Wu nodded and said something to Cheng Xuemin.

"I go!"

Although it came suddenly, Cheng Xuemin did not hesitate for a moment and said to the two old leaders very firmly: "Mr. Shi, Mr. Wu, I will go. I should go!"

"So, I ask the chief to give me a task!"

His father-in-law, Mr. Feng, was right in advising him that when he gets to Mr. Wu's place, he must maintain a positive and positive attitude.

Anyway, all Mr. Wu asked of his son-in-law was to write a few more articles.

But he certainly would never have thought that Mr. Wu would send his good son-in-law directly to the southern front to serve as a battlefield writer.

If my father-in-law, Mr. Feng, and my mother-in-law, Ms. Feng, knew about this, I don’t know if they would regret it!
After all, their second son, Feng Jiacheng, was still stranded in Yunnan, which had already made them both worried. Now their son-in-law was going straight to the front line!

I’ve thought about it too!

If mother-in-law Feng's mother had accompanied Cheng Xuemin here today, would her son-in-law Cheng Xuemin have agreed so resolutely in person to the instructions of the two old leaders?
"Okay, okay! I knew you, Xuemin, had a high level of awareness. I was worried just now!"

Seeing Cheng Xuemin's resolute attitude, Old Wu was very satisfied and said, "Xuemin, to be honest, I applied to Lao Shi for this trip to the south!"

"You are now the center of Xuankou. My support to you is to divert your attention first, go to the south to gain some experience, and try to write a good manuscript. This is the best and sharpest counterattack against those voices!"

The fission of the Qin Dynasty that Cheng Xuemin talked about has been brewing for more than a week. It is not that Mr. Wu chose to wait and see and has not spoken out.

Instead, he was helping Cheng Xuemin to obtain a quota from the General Political Department to lead a delegation southward, and to squeeze Cheng Xuemin into the delegation heading south to protect him strategically.

This is the situation. We called Cheng Xuemin here today to consult Cheng Xuemin's own wishes and ask whether he is willing to go.

If you don't want to, Mr. Wu will definitely not force you!

Now Cheng Xuemin’s resounding statement certainly made Mr. Wu very happy!

Asking for a monthly ticket!
