Chapter 034: Cancel the New Year's Sacrifice
Zhao Fangzhong's fourth room is the protagonist of this New Year's Festival, all the people in the fourth room have been preparing for the New Year's Festival for a long time, and now there are only four days left before the New Year's Festival, and they were suddenly asked to cancel, even Zhao Xiaohe felt that he couldn't go, he thought that the difficulty of the work in the fourth room would definitely not be inferior to the fifth room where Zhao Sanfu was, so he answered Zhao Fangzhong's phone with a complicated mood, because he didn't think that Zhao Fangzhong could bring good news.
"I'm fine with that. β
Zhao Fangzhong's first sentence was very relaxed, and Zhao Xiaohe was shocked.
"What? you meanβ" Zhao Xiaohe couldn't believe his ears.
"Uncle Ding agreed to cancel the New Year's sacrifice, and the people in the four rooms agreed. Zhao Xiaohe's reaction was obviously expected by Zhao Fangzhong, he was not surprised at all, and repeated with a smile.
"So smooth?!"
"In fact, it's not so smooth, it's Huaxiang who has been doing the work of the four-room people for a long time. He ......"
"He didn't come out, did he?" Zhao Huaxiang was quarantined because of his son-in-law from Wuhan.
"No, no, no, Huaxiang is contacted by phone or WeChat, he understands people and knows what can and cannot be done. Zhao Fangzhong knew Zhao Xiaohe's nervousness, and hurriedly explained, "Before I went to find Uncle Ding, Hua Xiang had already done the work of the other people in the fourth room, and after learning that I was going to persuade Uncle Ding, Hua Xiang called all the heads of each family in the fourth room and asked them to go with me to persuade Uncle Ding." β
Speaking of this, he laughed again, "Actually, Uncle Ding still disagrees in his heart, but the people in charge of each family have expressed their attitudes, and it is not okay if he disagrees, after all, the people who will do things at that time are all young people, and he can't afford to be an old man." So in the final analysis, it was actually to force Uncle Ding to comply. β
"Then Lao Ding Gong must not be angry?"
For the sake of the entire Zhao Jiazhou, I can only wronged his old man. We really can't do anything better. β
Zhao Xiaohe knew that he was telling the truth, and sighed: "In the end, it's still to blame those people who eat bats blindly, if it weren't for this pneumonia, we would have had a lively New Year this year." β
"yes. There are always people who feel that they are the masters of nature, who have no reverence for nature, and who wantonly bully nature, and now that nature has begun to take revenge on mankind, it has only taken pity on those innocent and kind people. "In the end, Zhao Fangzhong is a teacher, and he is very sensitive to environmental protection.
Zhao Xiaohe smiled bitterly: "Where are we the masters of nature? We are all just a part of nature, and all things in nature are equal to us." β
It's a pity that many people don't understand this truth. I hope that after this disaster, people will realize this and renew their sense of respect for nature and live in peace with it. β
"I guess so. Zhao Xiaohe didn't know the bottom of his heart, "But although our New Year is not happy, but in the end it is more comfortable than the people of Wuhan, they have sealed the city, and I don't know what will happen." β
"It's going to get better, believe in the country and believe in the party. By the way, how is the progress of the persuasion of the other rooms? There are so many messages in the group that I haven't had time to read it yet. Zhao Fangzhong pulled the topic back.
Zhao Xiaohe then told him everything he knew, including Zhao Zhenxing's use of Lego to coax Hangbao to persuade Zhao Laoyi.
"It's just that they can think of such a way when they are young. Zhao Fangzhong laughed loudly, "Although this is a bit excessive, it is also a last resort." Hope to wait until the good news. By the way, there is another matter, didn't I mention the matter of fundraising with you and the old secretary yesterday? I have received a lot of responses, and 200,000 yuan has already been received. β
"I raised 200,000 yuan?!So much money?!" Zhao Xiaohe was surprised and delighted.
"Well, who told us that there are many capable and caring people in Zhaojiazhou. I have sent the detailed list of fundraising to the old secretary, he didn't reply to me, I guess I don't have time to read WeChat, I'll send you a copy later. Huaxiang has already contacted to purchase anti-epidemic materials. There are still people who are ready to donate, and I see that the materials are quite abundant at present, so I suspended the first round of fundraising activities to see that the second round of fundraising needs to be carried out at that time. In addition, didn't our four rooms prepare a lot of materials for the New Year's festival? We are discussing donating them to the village for epidemic prevention and anti-epidemic purposes. β
Zhao Xiaohe was very moved, thought about it, and said: "The village has prepared some epidemic prevention materials, plus the 200,000 yuan raised, which can support it for a while. β
Zhao Fangzhong immediately sighed deeply: "It's good if you don't use it!"
"It's going to be useless. Zhao Xiaohe comforted Zhao Fangzhong, but also comforted himself, because this was his expectation.
"Teacher Fang, you have been guarding the card until so late, and you are busy persuading you to cancel the New Year's Festival in the morning, you are tired enough, since you have already persuaded you, then hurry up and go back to make up for sleep." β
"Okay. We'll get back in touch if there's something to do. Zhao Fangzhong hung up the phone after speaking.
After a while, Zhao Xiaohe received the first batch of fundraising lists from him, and after a general look, the first batch of fundraising lists were all in tens of thousands, as Zhao Fangzhong said, they were all famous people in the village. He found Zhao Qinggang's name in the fundraising list, and thinking of what Zhao Qinggang said to himself yesterday, his heart became heavy again.
Taking advantage of this, he took a look at the latest epidemic on the Internet, and his mood became more and more heavy.
Seeing that there was no good news in the persuasion group, there was no way to think about it, so he could only continue to wait.
Turned back to his yard, quietly listened to it, saw that there was no movement in the supermarket, and calmed down, and then rode an electric car to the east of the village card point, saw that the card was very smooth, and then rode an electric car along the Nandi Road to the west to patrol, and saw that there was no one in the village all the way, so he turned to the village West card point.
At this time, the people who guarded the card in the west of the village were Xie Guining, manager Xie who was sent by Qinglan Transportation Company to serve as the first poverty alleviation secretary of Zhaojiazhou, Zhao Zhengyang, the leader of the fifth room, and Zhao Jiacheng, the director of public security in the village.
After greeting the other two, Zhao Xiaohe asked Zhao Jiacheng about his room to persuade him to cancel the New Year's sacrifice.
Zhao Lei and Zhao Yi haven't replied yet. Zhao Jiacheng, who has always been bad at words, responded softly.
"I heard that Zhaojiazhou's annual festival has a history of seven or eight hundred years, and everyone is ready, but it is not so easy to cancel. Xie Guining shook his head and expressed his opinion.
Originally, this class was guarded by Xie Guining, Zhao Zhengyang and Zhao Sanfu, Zhao Sanfu left temporarily, let Zhao Jiacheng take his post, and called Zhao Jiacheng away near noon, Zhao Jiacheng didn't come to guard the card until mid-afternoon, Xie Guining naturally asked the reason.
"This pneumonia is really bad, and it broke out at the end of the year. Zhao Zhengyang sighed and answered.
"If it weren't for the end of the year, the flow of people would not be so large, and the epidemic would not have developed so rapidly. Xie Guining looked worried, "Fortunately, Wuhan has been locked down." A city with a population of more than 10 million is not easy. β
"Although it is not easy to lock down the city, it is the most effective way to prevent and control the pneumonia epidemic at present. It is estimated that in a few days, many places will be closed, and Qinglan will too. Zhao Xiaohe tried to guess.
"Qinglan is closed down, this shouldn't be enough," Xie Guining disagreed with his words, "We are far away from Wuhan, it is not so serious, judging from the current epidemic prevention situation, Zhaojiazhou has done better, and many people in other villages have not paid attention to the pneumonia epidemic at all." β
One sentence made Zhao Xiaohe worried: "In fact, pneumonia is getting closer and closer to us, and it is far from enough for Zhao Jiazhou to do a good job in epidemic prevention." β
There is no way to do that, we can only manage ourselves, not others. Zhao Zhengyang also answered with depression.
didn't want to drive everyone's pessimism, Zhao Xiaohe said with a smile: "If everyone can manage themselves, that's good." β
As he was talking, Zhao Xiaohe's mobile phone rang, and when he saw that it was Zhao Wenming's phone, he quickly connected it.
"Xiaohe, Lao Yigong agreed to cancel the New Year's Festival!"
"Really?!"
"Yes, surprised, surprised?" Zhao Wenming kept laughing on the phone.
"What a surprise, what a surprise!
"Eh, this is not my ability, you don't know that I went to find Lao Yigong at noon, and he scolded him so much that he wanted to grow wings and fly away. It's all the credit of Xingxing, ouch tsk, I heard that Hangbao rolled on the ground for half an hour, and the old man who loved his grandson had no choice, so he agreed. Although this method is a little damaged, it really works. But in the end, this is also a last resort. Okay, let's not talk about it, since Lao Yigong agreed to cancel the New Year's sacrifice, then I will hurry up and persuade others to cancel the banquet. Let's talk about it later. β
Zhao Wenming said and hung up the phone.
Zhao Xiaohe happily told everyone the news, and of course, he hid the twists and turns of the process.
He was thinking of persuading the group to talk about it, and found that everyone had already said it, and what made him even happier was that Zhao Wenfeng, Zhao Lei, Zhao Yi, and Zhao Biru all shared the good news in the group.
[Even the four rooms on duty agreed to cancel the New Year's sacrifice, and Uncle Wu was also a little shaken when he heard the news, and now there is only one person left in Gengong, maybe I should hold another patriarch meeting, Xiaohe, you come to the village now] - just saw Zhao Xiaohe speaking out in the group, and Zhao Sanfu saved the effort of making a phone call.
Zhao Xiaohe answered the call and arrived immediately, put away his mobile phone, briefly shared the good news with the three people who kept the card, and hurried to the village committee.
When passing by the health center isolated by the village committee, he happened to see Zhao Zhiyang hurrying out with a medicine box, he immediately parked the electric car in front of Zhao Zhiyang, and was about to ask who was sick, Zhao Zhiyang actually got directly into his electric car, urging him to "go and go".
"Where?" he was surprised.
"You're not here to pick me up?"
"What's wrong with my family?!?"
"Your dad fainted, don't you know?!"
"What? My dad fainted?" Zhao Xiaohe immediately started the electric car to accelerate.
"Eh, why don't you say hello when you start the car!" Zhao Zhiyang was almost thrown off, and quickly grabbed Zhao Xiaohe's clothes.
