[211] Turning into the village
In the blink of an eye, two days passed in a hurry, and the county magistrate led three staff members to meet with Wu Daguang.
The day is not coincidental, a few people on the bus not long after a light rain, after this trip of the bus just in the third of the position broke down, repaired the car took half an hour, the bus arrived at the town at three o'clock in the afternoon, the sky was gray and very depressing, in the past, there would be villagers driving Wu Daguang's tractor to pick up, but today there is no trace, Wu Daguang deliberately did not let people pick up, let the county magistrate walk this muddy road in the countryside.
Wu Daguang could see that the three staff members were already impatient, and they didn't dare to explode because of the county magistrate's face.
"Don't worry, we'll be home after a while, I've already asked the village chief to prepare food at home, and we can rest when we get home." Wu Daguang deliberately said that the actual journey is still half a day, and if you get home, it will be dark. Wu Daguang took out bread from his bag and gave it to Zhang Manfu: "Manfu, the apricot blossoms give you something to eat on the road." ”
Man Fu took the bread, took two small bites, was reluctant to eat it, and held it in his hand.
After walking for about 20 minutes, someone finally got impatient: "Daguang, there is no village in front of this boundary and no store behind the village, how long do you have to go?"
"It's almost there, it's time to arrive. Wu Daguang carried Zhang Manfu, who was tired of walking, on his back.
"You can't be lost. Another staff member said.
"I used to get up just after twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, and I walked up from this road to the market, can I still recognize this road as wrong?" Wu Daguang said with a smile.
The county magistrate didn't say a word, and let his shoes and trousers be covered with mud and wet and damp, he knew in his heart that Wu Daguang was letting them see the way their children had to go to school.
For two hours, the county magistrate and his entourage didn't care about getting dirty, and sat on the stones on the side of the road to rest.
"Daguang, you always say that it's almost fast, how far is it?" The county magistrate couldn't stand it anymore, so he ate something in the morning, and now he is hungry, cold and tired.
Wu Daguang saw that a few people were really at the limit, so he didn't have to embarrass a few people: "Or I'll run back now and let the tractor in the village come back to pick you up, if you can go, just take a few steps, if you can't go, just sit here and wait." ”
The county magistrate and several staff members looked at each other, and the county magistrate waved his hand: "I really can't walk, these two legs can't take a step." ”
Wu Daguang shoved Zhang Manfu, who was staying by his side, to the county magistrate: "Then ask the county magistrate to help take care of it first, and I'll be back in about an hour." ”
"Go, go, go. The county magistrate said.
Wu Daguang walked twice as fast as he did just now, plus he ran, and it took more than half an hour to return to the village, stuffed some food into his mouth in the village, and beckoned the villagers to drive a tractor to pick up the county magistrate, the villagers didn't know that it was the county magistrate who was going to pick up, and there were crop crumbs on the tractor, and the children in the village wanted to go with Wu Daguang in order to take the tractor.
Tossing back and forth, isn't it getting dark, and when I see the county magistrate again, the county magistrate is taking turns carrying Zhang Manfu to the direction of Xiawa Village, Zhang Manfu fell asleep on the back of the county magistrate, in order not to let him get cold, one of the staff members covered him with a coat.
Wu Daguang turned the tractor, stopped next to the county magistrate, rubbed his hands and sighed: "It's so cold, how few of you wear so little." ”
As soon as Wu Daguang said that it was cold, the staff member who took off his coat and shivered with cold.
After all, they are from the county, how can they stand this kind of suffering, Wu Daguang had to take off his coat and hand it over: "Brother, if you don't dislike it, put on my clothes." ”
The staff member was still going to stiffen up: "No, you can wear it, it's quite cold, I'll bear with it a little longer." ”
Wu Daguang threw his clothes into the arms of the staff: "Don't be reckless." ”
The county magistrate and several staff members were pulled on the tractor by the villagers, Wu Daguang drove the tractor to Xiawa Village, not long after driving, he regretted it, the weather in late autumn was really fucking cold, the hair on the whole body stood up, the whole body couldn't help but shiver, the villagers behind were okay, there was a car body to block the wind and still gather, he was in front of the good food.
With the fastest time to return to Xiawa Village, in Wu Daguang's small courtyard, the village chief and his mother-in-law were having a hot meal, the meal had already been cooked, it was hot over and over again, Wu Daguang's kang in the tile house was hot, the village chief didn't know that the person who came was the county magistrate, only knew that it was Wu Daguang's friend, so he didn't have any welcome ceremony.
After entering the small courtyard, Wu Daguang beckoned the county magistrate and several staff members to enter the house to warm up, and shrank on the kang one by one, and it took a long time to relieve.
Before the meal, the village chief's mother-in-law brought six bowls of ginger soup into the door: "The autumn day in the countryside is like this, it's not cold, drink some ginger soup and don't catch a cold, the rice will be served." ”
The meals are just ordinary home-cooked meals, and for those who have been hungry for a day, they are especially fragrant.
After eating, they lay on Wu Daguang's kang one by one, their eyelids didn't have to struggle, and they didn't want to open them anymore when they closed them.
After one night, these cadres got up very early, but when they got up, they didn't know what to do, they didn't know what to do if they wanted to consume time or not.
Breakfast was prepared and delivered by the village chief at home, and the fragrance of last night's food was completely because he was hungry and tired, and this morning, his stomach was not empty, and he was full after eating two bites one by one.
When he arrived at his own territory, Wu Daguang took it upon himself to lead the county magistrate around.
"This is Xiawa Village, no one in the village has ever been out of the mountains, the way to make money is to make money is the family of a few acres of land, rely on the sky to eat, the rain is more afraid of water, less rain is afraid of drought, the annual income is only a few hundred yuan, nearby villages have Shangwa Village, Shangwa Village, Guojiagou, Wangjiaba, In some small villages in Beihe Village, I built a school in our village, and I also took a fancy to the location of our village not far from these villages, and of course I also have selfish intentions, building a school in our village, so that the children in our village can walk a few steps less, and the family does not need to send their children to school, they can get there themselves. Wu Daguang introduced.
Greeted an old man who drove an ox cart to pull corn home, the old man greeted politely, and leaked out the few remaining teeth: "Daguang is back." ”
"Yes, are you done harvesting the crops in the field? ”
"It's over, it's the last car, your friends are good at business, but not farm work. The old man said.
"Then you get busy first, and I'll take them around. ”
Farewell to the old man, there are still so many people in the village, everyone will greet Wu Daguang when they see him, and there are many gossipy women.
"Daguang, these four are your friends. ”
"Daguang gave us an introduction. ”
……
Not only did he wander around Xiawa Village, Wu Daguang also led several leaders to go to the next few villages to have a look, and the people in the next village also knew Wu Daguang, Wu Daguang went all the way, but anyone who knew that he was Wu Daguang's would say a few words, just like the neighbors next door.
