Chapter One
"How's your mother's health?" The old lady asked: "Why didn't you bring her to the city?"
"My mom is still working on the farm! She doesn't want to come to the city, and my younger brother and his wife are very filial to her."
"Great!" The old lady heard these words and said with excitement what everyone thought Wang Dongshan couldn't understand.
"What's too good?"
"Chairman Wang, you have a car, why don't you sit in it?" Hu Jinqiao was also very pleased that her son would soon recognize this godfather: "Besides, why did you come back so early?"
"Aunt Hu, the city arranged a car for me, but it's a public vehicle and I'm not allowed to use it for personal purposes. I came back so early because I was afraid of being late for work."
"You're the leader, being late once or twice is no big deal, right?" Hu Jinniao asked.
"Just because I'm the leader, so I can't be late!" Wang Dongshan said firmly.
The old lady said happily: "Good, your method is the same as my son's..."
Hu Jinjiao was afraid that Old Lady would mention the Municipal Party Secretary, so she interrupted her: "Mom, it's almost time."...
In the next room, the municipal party secretary clearly heard the conversation in the living room. He dialed Hu Jinhua's phone with his mobile phone: "Come over for a moment."
Hu Jinjiao saw her husband smoking contentedly and knew that he was satisfied with Wang Dongshan.
"Did you all hear that clearly?" Hu Jinqiao asked: "How was it?"
"It's okay." Chen Yuntian said: "Not bad, like a communist party member. ...Forgot to ask you, does he know who your husband is?"
"I don't know."
"Good! Now I can rest assured."
When Chen Yuntian walked into the living room, he saw Wang Dongshan busy with his back to him and his elder brother. He waved his hand at Old Lady Tian and Tian Tingyu, and quietly walked out of the living room. In the corridor, he said to Hu Jin'e: "I'm going to work, tell him, don't talk about this matter today."
"Got it." Hu Jinyao asked him: "Did you tell him your identity?"
"Go with the flow, don't tell him for now."
The old lady was extremely surprised that young Wang Dongshan was so familiar with the procedures and rules of "recognizing a son". It's like a farmer cultivating land, he knew exactly when to water this piece of land, when to plow, when to press, when to rake, and when to sow. He was also very clear about the tools used for farming, such as the plowshare for turning over the soil, the double-plow for sowing seeds, the light cultivator for harvesting, and the shallow-toothed rake for loosening the soil.
The old lady's consideration was very thorough. She worried that if she accidentally bumped into a half-understanding person who didn't understand anything, during the ceremony, they wouldn't even be able to say auspicious words, wouldn't that lose the original meaning of being superstitious?
At this time, she thought of the eldest son and daughter-in-law in the countryside. Right, they should be called back, their experience with such things is too much.
Xiao Baomu Tian Tingyu was also a personal clever, seeing the old lady let her call 100 kilometers away in the countryside, the eldest son and daughter-in-law, suddenly had an idea.
"Grandma!" Tian Tingyu pulled up the old lady's hand and squatted beside her legs, saying: "Grandma, let's just say it like this, even if it's a big deal, it's still the rural brother who found a fortune teller to calculate it."
"You're afraid that your elder brother will find out that it was you who found me, and he won't be happy about it?" The old lady was very pleased with Tian Tingyu's behavior at this moment. So the words she spoke were especially warm: "You child are also a kind-hearted person, speaking to your country bumpkin elder brother like this."
Tian Tingyu originally had a lot of words to persuade the old lady, but unexpectedly, she didn't have to say much and the old lady cured her heart disease that had been hanging in the balance.
Tian Tingyu was excited, like a swallow, and rushed to the phone. She dialed the phone number of the municipal party secretary's brother in the countryside. The elder brother in the countryside said, "I'm just about to go out to the fields, and your call came!" Is my mother okay?
"It's not about being early, but being timely. I can calculate it!" Tian Tingyu spoke eloquently: "Grandma is fine, but she has been thinking about seeing you and your wife these days! Don't worry, it's like this..."
Tian Tingyu's three under five minus two explained everything. The municipal party secretary's elder brother from the countryside readily agreed...
Wang Dongshan set up the incense table and offered dishes in the living room of the municipal party secretary's house with the help of his elder brother from the countryside. Each dish used 15 large bread loaves instead of steamed buns.
……
After doing all this, Wang Dongshan wanted to ask the old lady a new question. He stuttered: "Grandma,......"
Wang Dongshan had not yet asked the old lady this embarrassing question, but the old lady brought it up herself, and they really became "heart-to-heart" connected.
"Chairman Wang, there's something I'd like to bring up." The old lady looked at Wang Dongshan with a benevolent gaze.
"Wang Dongshan said: "Grandma, we are all one family now. Whatever you want to say, just say it. As long as I can do it, I will not decline!"
"You can do it." The old lady said: "I'm just afraid your mom won't be happy!"
"Grandma, let me tell you. My mom is a kind-hearted person just like you. She would never do anything bad or harmful to others! As long as it's something that benefits others, she will always support me." Wang Dongshan was truly talented in his performance, and these few words not only moved the old lady but also touched the hearts of Secretary Hu's wife, Hu Jinyao, and everyone else present except for Tian Tingyu.
"I want you to acknowledge me as your godmother," said the old lady, speaking from her heart.
Wang Dongshan immediately knelt down on the carpet: "Auntie is above, from today onwards, Wang Dongshan, your nephew, will be your son!" After saying this, he kowtowed three times to the old lady.
The old lady was so excited that her eyes were filled with tears: "Good! Good! Good! Qiang Tian, Jin E, quickly help your brother up!"
Big brother, big sister-in-law, and Hu Jin'e, hurried forward and helped Wang Dongshan up.
"Daughter." Wang Dongshan said: "Let's get started."
"Let's begin!" The old lady finally gave the order: "Bring out Chen Wen-yin."
King Dongshan incense knocks head...
Hu Jinjiao led out her son Chen Wenyun, and Wang Dongshan had him sit on a square stool. He said: "This is the longevity star's Dou." Wang Dongshan also had Chen Wenyun's feet step onto a small square stool, saying: "This is the longevity star's Shengzi."
Big brother and sister-in-law said in unison: "The rising son sits on the Dou, Chen Wenyun can live to be ninety-nine!"
Under the old lady's command, everyone repeated it again.
Wang Dongshan tied three red threads around Chen Wenyun's neck and said, "This is the auspicious color of Caishenye."
Big brother and sister-in-law shouted in unison: "A big ingot of silver is rolling in!"
Everyone shouted in unison: "A big ingot of silver is coming!"
Wang Dongshan took the lead in tying 1,000 yuan on the red ribbon. The crowd followed suit and tied money onto the red ribbon.
Wang Dongshan opened the silver chain on the silver lock and put it around Chen Wenyun's neck, saying: "This is the silver chain of Master Lu Xing."
Big brother and sister-in-law said in unison: "The road to being an official is bright and smooth!"
Everyone shouted in unison: "The path of being an official is bright and smooth!"
Wang Dongshan fastened the silver chain and said: "This is also a golden lock for a dog."
Big brother and sister-in-law said in unison: "During the day, jumping around like a monkey! At night, sleeping till dawn!"
Everyone shouted in unison: "Jumping around like a monkey during the day! Sleeping soundly till dawn!"
