The order was conveyed quickly. All battalion headquarters and company party branches rushed to the regiment headquarters after receiving the call.
 No one knows what major event has happened. A meeting of grassroots cadres of the entire regiment is to be held.
 Several leaders of the infrastructure company also rushed to the regiment headquarters on tractors.
We were still discussing what happened along the way?
Because it was quite far away, when Ma Quanyi arrived with the people from the infrastructure company, the auditorium of the regiment headquarters was already full of people.
 There are more people in the regimental agencies. After all, they are production and construction units, and they cannot be as capable as real combat troops.
There are several people sitting on the rostrum. The one in the middle is not familiar to everyone.
 The head of the group and the political commissar were accompanying each other. These must be leaders from higher-level agencies.
As long as the position is not as high as that of the regiment commander, they will not sit on either side. The regiment still maintains the style of the army. The relationship between superiors and subordinates is particularly clear.
 The leader cleared his throat, blew into the microphone, and then asked:
“Is Comrade Ye Wancheng here?”
Everyone was stunned. Everyone knew Ye Wancheng, and they knew him because of his good medical skills. Moreover, he was unwilling to stay in the regiment hospital and took the initiative to work as a health worker at the grassroots level.
Why is he being mentioned in this enlarged meeting of the league cadres? No matter how famous he is, he is just a health worker. He is nothing here!
Anyone here has a higher status than him. Isn’t this unscientific?
Ye Wancheng was also stunned and remained silent for a while. Ma Quanyi next to him quickly poked him.
 “The leader is calling you!”
It was only then that Ye Wancheng realized what he was doing and quickly stood up.
“Report to the leader, Ye Wancheng is here!”
 The leader smiled and waved his hand. "Okay, just come. Sit down first!"
Everyone looked at each other in confusion, wondering what kind of medicine the leader was selling in this gourd?
 After everything was ready, the political commissar stood up and picked up a piece of paper.
The political commissar rarely reads from the script when delivering his speeches. He has good literary talent and basically expresses his speech without the script. I don’t know why he changed to reading from the script today.
“Dear leaders of the Ninth Division, on behalf of the Tangcheng City Lunan District Committee, I sincerely admire you for cultivating such good soldiers as Ye Wancheng and Liu Qinghua!
 While visiting relatives, the two of them bravely participated in emergency rescue and disaster relief regardless of their personal safety. Many injured people received timely treatment.
 They do not seek fame and fortune, but we cannot deny it. Therefore, in the name of the district committee, we implore the leaders of the Ninth Division to commend these two comrades!
Sincerely yours
salute!"
 Tangcheng City Lunan District Revolutionary Committee.
After reading this letter, the audience was noisy. I didn’t expect these two people to come back from a trip to do such a big thing.
 The political commissar knocked on the table to signal everyone to quiet down. Then he picked up a piece of paper.
 Everyone was in an uproar and secretly dumbfounded. "What else is there?"
The second letter read by the political commissar was a letter of commendation from the Jinling City Revolutionary Committee. It was similar to the letter from the Tangcheng Road South District Committee.
Although communications were underdeveloped at that time, such major news would naturally be reported on radios and newspapers every day.
Since they are all Chinese, the commanders and soldiers of the Corps are naturally paying attention to every news over there.
But I didn’t expect that someone around me would go there to participate in emergency rescue and disaster relief. And they would be commended by the government there. This honor makes everyone envious.
 The political commissar sat down after reading.
At this time, the regiment leader stood up. "The Party Committee of the Economic Division has made a decision. Each of us in the Ninth Division will donate ten yuan to support the reconstruction of Tangcheng!
 I hope that the leaders of each unit will go back and convey this spirit. Of course, don’t force this matter. Everything is voluntary!”
　　"Wow!" Fierce applause rang out. How could anyone question such a decision? It was an era of sentimentality, and all selfish behaviors would be despised.
“Now I invite Comrade Liu Qingquan, deputy political commissar of the division, to announce two appointments!”
 The audience looked at each other again for a while. Shouldn’t this commendation letter after reading it be a commendation? Why did someone from the division announce the appointment? There is something wrong with this procedure.
No matter how doubtful they were, everyone calmed down and listened to the deputy political commissar's speech.
“Comrade Liu Qinghua is conscientious in his daily work and does not care about personal gains and losses. Coupled with his outstanding performance in Tangcheng rescue and disaster relief, the Party Committee of the Division decided to appoint Comrade Liu Qinghua as the deputy political commissar of the Third Regiment!”
 The venue was silent for a moment. Then applause broke out.
 Everyone understands that the reason why Liu Qinghua was promoted and transferred to the Third Regiment was actually to help reunite his family.
 His lover serves as the director of Santuan Hospital. The two of them spend less time together and more time apart. This time the whole family is finally reunited.
The applause stopped. The deputy political commissar picked up another piece of paper and read:
“In view of the fact that Comrade Ye Wancheng...appointed him as the instructor of the infrastructure company to take over the position of Comrade Liu Qinghua!”
Ma Quanyi applauded while having mixed feelings in his heart. He didn’t expect that his opponent would become equal to him in a blink of an eye.
But Yang Yulin, Zhao Dengxuan and others applauded desperately. They wished they could slap their hands into pieces.
 The commendation meeting ended soon. The political commissar specifically asked the comrades of the infrastructure company to stay for a while, and then announced the adjournment of the meeting.
 A few people from the infrastructure company thought that the political commissar wanted to encourage him and asked Ye Wancheng to keep up his efforts.
Unexpectedly, the political commissar handed Ye Wancheng a large paper bag.
“Comrade Ye Wancheng, you have given birth to a good son! You have made great contributions to our regiment!
Your family suffered losses in this earthquake. I heard that houses are also being built in my hometown. This is a reward given to you by the Youth League Party Committee!"
 The political commissar smiled when he mentioned this.
"Don't refuse this, it's mainly for your son! Bring him to see me when you have time. Liu Qinghua can boast of your son as a god!"
Ye Wancheng held the money and his voice was choked up: "Thank you, leader!"
At this time, the group leader also came over and patted Ye Wancheng on the shoulder.
“There is a shortage of doctors in the regiment right now. So you can continue to serve as a health worker in the infrastructure company. Is that okay?”
 Ye Wancheng stood at attention. "Make sure to complete the task!"
 The leader nodded with satisfaction. "You are a good comrade. Nowadays, material rewards are not recommended very much. So this money can only be given to you privately. I hope you understand!"
 Ye Wancheng nodded heavily.
The instructor also returned to the infrastructure company. He wanted to hand over work to Ye Wancheng.
Yang Yulin and others were noisy along the way. They asked Ye Wancheng to treat him to a drink. He would naturally agree to this.
 When he arrived at the company, he first went to the company headquarters. Liu Qinghua handed over the work to Ye Wancheng.
Then they went to Ye Wancheng's house together. Ma Quanyi and the others also came.
 After all, Ye Wancheng is already the company instructor. This face must be given.
Meihua was shocked when she came back. She didn't expect all these people to gather at her house to drink.
 After everyone finished telling her what had happened, she sat aside in disbelief and was in a daze.
It wasn’t until Ye Wancheng handed her the brown paper bag containing the money. She took it out and counted it several times before she wrote the letter with a smile on her face.
Chapter completed!
