The new house was completed, just waiting for the owner to move in.

Lao Jintou can also be discharged from the hospital, and he only needs to recuperate at home and slowly recover.

According to local customs, after the house is completed, it is necessary to put whips and drink alcohol to be lively and lively, in order to show that the old is broken and welcome the new, and pray for prosperity.

Early in the morning, Long Dajun went to the town health center to pick up Lao Jintou and at the same time went through the discharge procedures for him.

A striped cloth shed of more than 20 square meters rose from the ground in front of the old gold new house, supported high. The four-corner ropes are pulled by steel bars and are firmly rooted into the ground, protected from rain and wind. Under the shed, two makeshift earthen stoves made of red bricks are blazing, and sparks are rising in the wind. A long board was filled with chicken, duck, fish and other meat dishes, and some seasonal greens such as cabbage, radish, lotus root, and coriander were piled up in a basket on the ground.

A few villagers were busy in and out of the shed, moving here and there.

At present, the rural banquet is also to hire a professional team. Whether it is a white case or a red case, the host is only responsible for providing the ingredients, and the other tables, chairs, benches, pots and pans are brought by the chef, negotiating the price, and lighting the fire.

The chef is a capable man in his fifties. A native of the neighboring village, surnamed Jiang, known as Chef Jiang. Over the years, as long as there is a banquet at home in the countryside around Jinkou Town, it is basically Chef Jiang who is invited.

Chef Jiang cooks a good dish. I heard that when I was young, I worked in a high-end restaurant in a big city, and when I was older, I returned home to do this with my daughter-in-law.

The purchased chicken, duck, fish and other ingredients were delivered to the village at five o'clock in the morning, Cheng Xiaoying and Long Mei were in charge of counting, making a wish to run up and down the ground to make contact, what is missing here, where is what is wanted, they are all shouting "Make a wish, there is a cup here..."

"Make a wish, when will the wine come back..."

Some villagers spontaneously came to help wash vegetables, move tables and chairs, set up tableware, all of them were smiling, and some even sang a small tune..."I'm so happy today..."

It was the first time that the old golden head house was so lively.

The sound of stir-frying, shouting, noisy, chickens and ducks, laughter, one after another, mixed together... A typical picture of harvest celebrations.

Seeing the simple and kind villagers singing and laughing from the bottom of their hearts, Zhang Xuejun couldn't help but feel emotional, in fact, the villagers' requirements are not too much, it is good to have food and drink, it is good to be happy, if you can get rid of poverty and become rich as soon as possible, it will be better.

Xie Feng said he would come today. Yesterday morning, Zhang Xuejun made a special trip to contact Xie Feng by phone.

The first is to report the progress of the work and build the house, and the second is to thank him for donating 10,000 yuan to the village, which alleviates the urgent need.

Xie Feng said that the construction of a new house for the five guarantee households was the first tangible and tangible thing that Zhang Xuejun had done for the village since he was stationed in the village, and he should have come to congratulate him on behalf of the organ, and he would not come empty-handed, which was also an affirmation and support for his work in the village.

The old golden head came back in a cart. Since the hospital's ambulance could only reach the edge of the village, Long Dajun arranged for someone to wait outside the village in advance with a cart. As soon as the ambulance arrived, everyone worked together to lift Lao Jin onto the board car, and pushed him directly to the door of the new house with laughter and laughter all the way.

Seeing a brand new house rising from the ground, if it weren't for the old neighbors next door or so, I wouldn't believe that Lao Jin would have killed him, this new house was his own.

He sat in the car, trembling and holding Zhang Xuejun's hand slightly, so excited that he burst into tears, and said loudly: "Thank you Secretary Zhang, you are really our eldest master, parents official!"

Zhang Xuejun hurriedly said, "Don't say that, old man. If you want to thank the party, thank you to the country's targeted poverty alleviation policy, our little thing is nothing..."

Seeing that Lao Jin was about to get out of the car, Long Dajun hurriedly handed over the crutches, and Zhang Xuejun helped Lao Jin to get out of the car slowly, put on crutches, and paced into the house step by step.

Walking to the new door, the old golden head slowly stretched out a calloused hand, gently touched and touched the new door, and kept saying "Okay.. Okay.."

Slowly moving into the room, I saw a new table, a new chair, a new bed, a new quilt, a new... Everything is new, the old golden head touched it here, wiped it there, and couldn't suppress his inner excitement anymore, and cried loudly like a child, if it weren't for Zhang Xuejun and them supporting him, he might have to kneel in front of Zhang Xuejun on the spot.

Hearing Lao Jin's cry, some villagers followed the house curiously, perhaps with the same thoughts as Lao Jin, or they may have been infected by Lao Jin, their eyes were also moist, and some also shed tears of joy.

Seeing Lao Jin crying silently, Zhang Xuejun was worried that standing for a long time would affect the recovery of his feet, so he beckoned everyone to put Lao Jin on the bed to rest.

Cheng Xiaoying hurriedly ran in and shouted, "Secretary Zhang, Director Xie is here."

Zhang Xuejun hurriedly came out and saw Xie Feng and the others coming this way from a distance. So, Zhang Xuejun hurried up to meet him, and shouted from afar: "Director Xie, welcome, welcome!" Yan Ran looked like a master.

Xie Feng was in a good mood, smiled, and took Zhang Xuejun's hand, "Secretary Zhang, it's hard, the action is so fast, if you say that you will build it well, the first hand is the first hand!"

"Thank you for your support, and your 10,000 yuan" Zhang Xuejun smiled and took his hand.

"You see that you are really realistic, you only remember money..."Xie Feng pretended to be unhappy with a straight face, and deliberately scolded.

"Don't be stingy, leader! Hahaha"

The two exchanged a few words and dug holes for each other...

As if he suddenly remembered something, Xie Feng stopped laughing and said, "You have suffered so much here, we can't stand and do nothing, right?" He pointed back, "I said that I would give you an air conditioner." How's that, talk counts! Brought, you say, where is Ann?"

Zhang Xuejun only saw Xiao Lin and several installation masters in the office at this time, standing behind him with two cardboard boxes, oh, the air conditioner was delivered.

He looked back at Lao Jin's house, looked at Xie Feng sincerely and said: "Now, Lao Jin's feet are inconvenient, so he can only stay in the house for a long time, and the temperature in the house is relatively high, of course, it is the most suitable place to settle here."

"Okay, listen to you!" Xie Feng responded cheerfully.

There is a lot of strength in numbers, and the air conditioner is quickly installed.

Lao Jin, who was already excited, suddenly found that there was an extra air conditioner, thinking that he was dreaming. He rubbed his eyes, yes, the air conditioner was installed in a short time, and it was hanging in his room.

In the past, I was always envious of other people's air conditioners in their houses, and I always hoped that one day I would have one. He also knew that his idea was just a dream. Unexpectedly, today not only did I live in a new house, but also an air conditioner, which... It's a dream come true.

The old golden man's face burst into tears again...

It's time to get ready for dinner.

Long Dajun wrapped a large round firecracker with both hands, walked to no one's place, ripped open the package, and rolled to the ground, and the round firecracker turned into a long firecracker. He lit a cigarette, took a few puffs, climbed down, found the lead, took the cigarette in his right hand, took two steps back, and lit the firecracker.

The firelight flashed, crackled, and the deafening sound of firecrackers quickly resounded throughout the village. The black smoke drifted everywhere in the wind, and the air was filled with a pungent smell of sulfur, which made people feel a little uncomfortable all of a sudden.

As soon as the firecrackers go off, everything is a new beginning.

The sound of firecrackers slowly stopped, and the smoke slowly dispersed with the wind.

Long Dajun began to beckon everyone to sit down.

Long Dajun arranged for some old people in the village to sit with Lao Jin, and the old buddies happily raised their glasses to celebrate, drinking and blushing, like an old naughty child, talking about strange things and strange things that they heard at the edge of the village and around them, saying a word of teasing, laughter and laughter.

Deputy Secretary Xing made a special trip to congratulate Director Wang of the Town Civil Affairs Office, and according to custom, Zhang Xuejun left them and Xie Feng to sit around a table for a light meal. Due to the inconvenience of Lao Jin's foot injury, Zhang Xuejun and the Long family toasted on behalf of him one by one to express their gratitude.

Zheng Heizi was also at the scene, he just watched from afar, listened to the laughter from afar, and said viciously, laugh, there is a time when you cry...
