On February 5, 2008, Xinhuanet, China's Ministry of Civil Affairs revealed that since January 24, the snowstorm in East China has affected 17 provincial-level administrative regions including Hunan, with 103 deaths, 1.6 million emergency evacuations, and direct economic losses of 32.6 billion yuan, nearly 800,000 stranded Spring Festival passengers in Guangzhou, more than 100,000 stranded passengers in Shanghai, Nanjing and Hangzhou, and the entire southern region's highways, railways, and aviation lines have been suspended, and the south is almost paralyzed.

On the morning of the 10th, at a press conference held by the Information Office of the State Council, Gu Jun, chief engineer of the State Electricity Regulatory Commission, said: "Our goal now is to ensure that all the affected counties can restore power after the Spring Festival!"

Naturally, the leaders of the power bureau who received the instructions from their superiors would not slack off, and it didn't take long for the county to line up two young maintenance electricians who came to the village after a lot of hard work.

Fang Jiefang, as the acting village head, selected more than a dozen young people in the village to come out, and spontaneously organized a group of wire and cable maintenance personnel, led by Xiao Ye, two maintenance electricians repaired, and others assisted from the side. At first, the two young maintenance electricians were a little unimpressed, why they called someone from the police station to help, but later they admired his excellent craftsmanship. You must know that in the early years, the master was also an electrician, but it was really not profitable to be an electrician later, so Fang Jiefang entrusted him to the grassroots police station.

In order to have electricity in the village, the master and they united as one, and began the cable repair from the village to Yunzhezhuang in full swing......

On February 13th, Fang Ning's electric lights were turned on, there was a program on TV, and the whole small village was bright!

The village erupted in cheers, there was almost no electricity, and they were about to return to the primitive era from the life of modern people.

At the same time, the heavy snow that had fallen for more than a month in the south gradually stopped, and at the same time, the winter sun showed its first trace through the gauzy clouds, and the warm sunlight penetrated the thick clouds to spread the light and heat on everyone, and they cheered, jumped, and cried, all glad that this nightmare ice disaster had passed, and the beautiful days would come!

Today's Fang Ning is in a particularly good mood, there is a kind of deep calm in his pupils, holding a city morning newspaper in his hand, the edge of the paper has already been coarse and rough edges by his fingers back and forth, savoring the news in the newspaper, there is a bowl of fragrant noodle soup on the table, the golden fried poached egg is still bubbling with oil and gas floating on the soup noodles, put down the newspaper, pick up the soft poached egg with chopsticks and bite it on the lips, the touch is soft, and the aftertaste is endless.

Fang Ning stretched his waist, and a large area of sunlight fell through the light spots separated by the light and shadows of the balcony, and his eyes were bright.

There are still a lot of wonderful days waiting for Fang Ning to look forward to and show.

All parts of the south began to recover, the earth rejuvenated, the spring flowers bloomed, nature showed its vitality, the thin plum blossoms at the courtyard door also began to bud, the plum blossoms bloomed all over the branches, the birds sang and the flowers were fragrant, the lawn that was originally covered with snow gradually came to life, and the morning dew fell from the leaves of the grass, and finally dripped into the fertile soil, full of fragrance.

It is true that the ice disaster has brought serious meteorological disasters to the people in the southern region, but it also has advantages at the same time, a large amount of snow and thick ice are melted by the sun, and the snow water turns into clear and sweet streams flowing in the mountains and rivers, and at the same time, it also seeps into the black soil, so that the dry ground is lubricated, and the pests hidden deep in the soil are also frozen to death by this ice disaster, so it can be said that this year is also a good year for planting crops.

On the eighteenth day of the second lunar month, it rained, and there were several light rains for several days.

On the day of the spring equinox, the sun almost directly hits the earth's equator, and the day and night of the northern and southern hemispheres are equinox, which also marks the southern region into a sunny spring, the earth is rejuvenated, the willows on the roadside are still around, the warbler flies and the grass grows in March, and the villagers begin to prepare to sow seeds in the fields.

In this season when the warbler flies and the grass grows, the warm wind passes through the woods and the catkins flutter, which is a good time to step into spring.

It's a pity that Fang Ning and the others didn't have time to have this thought, so they were taken away by Fang's father and Fang's mother.

Originally, grandma's house in Yuezhou was an indispensable place to go, but grandma was next to them, so they didn't want to go, and then there were grandpa's younger brothers and sisters, these are relatives who have blood in their bones, and they must go, as well as grandma's relatives, it is also a lot of scary, and it can't be finished without six or seven days.

Fang Ning and his father's generation had a lot of girls, basically except for three or four uncles, the others were all women, so a large list of aunts called down, Fang Ning's brothers and sisters were also a little dazzled, but there were a few aunts he was still more impressed, Li Tiefei, Hong Weiping, Li Hongmei, these three aunts were all close to Fang Ning's family, and other aunts rarely had dealings with them.

Meixian Town Zheliao Village.

Here, the surname Li is a big surname, six of the ten people have the surname Li, the second surname is the surname Fang, Fang Ningzu Ruoshui has lived here for more than 20 years, his concubine Fang Fuxuan thrives here, it stands to reason that Fang Ning's eldest son on their side is the main vein, and Zheliao's side is a branch vein, but the people on both sides are not convinced, so they completely cut off the contact.

Inside Lijiazhuang.

The Li family is now allowed to be a family member is Li Xibao, that is, Fang Ning's grandmother's sisters and brothers are the third, and the grandmother is the second, as for why the boss Li Tianbao can't be a family, because he is too honest, has no opinions, and is a strict wife, the Li family has more than ten families and nearly hundreds of people, and no bold person really can't support this family.

Of course, the real person in charge of the family is still the great-great-grandmother, that is, Fang Ning's grandmother, eighty-two years old, sitting in a wheelchair, usually relying on granddaughters and grandchildren to help him walk, although he is too old, most of the time is confused, but this old man who is over eighty years old will also show a shrewd moment.

Among her sons and daughters, everyone wants her to die early, and also hopes that she will live a little longer, which is very contradictory and easy to understand, if an old man has not died, but can not take care of himself, then the juniors should serve the basin and urine and wash their pants, pestering their children and grandchildren, so I hope that dying early can make the younger generations easier, as for why I don't want her to die, it is because she is also the pillar of Lijiazhuang, many retired old cadres in the county are related to her, some of them are still her students and students' students, there are those people who help on weekdays, and Lijiazhuang's life is also better, but once the old man leaves the West, then people will go to tea and cool, the relationship between the previous generation is completely gone.
