Chapter 433 International Friends 9

1.

Spring listened to the conversation between Yang Jiachao's grandmother and the Japanese, most of whom were Japanese asking about the Yang family's family situation, such as: family members, sources of income, daily expenses, etc. With the assistance of the translator, Grandma Yang answered the questions raised by the Japanese in a realistic manner, which aroused a burst of embarrassment and emotion from the two Japanese old men, and expressed sympathy for the changes and experiences of Grandma Yang's family.

The conversation lasted for more than ten minutes, and when it was almost 11 o'clock, the honorary president of Yokohama University in Japan raised his wrist to look at the time, and said goodbye to Grandma Yang, and informed the accompanying Chinese officials that the visit was over. At the same time, the honorary president also expressed his gratitude to the Chinese side for their preparatory work for the visit.

Grandma Yang understood that it was these Japanese who were leaving, so she hurriedly took advantage of the conversation between the Japanese and the Chinese officials to withdraw into the house. A few minutes later, Grandma Yang walked towards the crowd tremblingly, carrying a cloth bag in one hand and two hands of insoles in the other.

Grandma Yang came to the two Japanese old men, handed the cloth bag and insoles in her hand to the two Japanese old men, and told the Japanese through an interpreter that the fried peanuts in the insoles and cloth bags were gifts she gave to the Japanese, but because she didn't know the size of the Japanese feet, she didn't know if they would fit. The Japanese expressed their gratitude to Grandma Yang again and again through the translator, especially the two pairs of colorful and beautifully patterned insoles.

Standing beside Grandma Yang, Spring couldn't help but moisten the corners of her eyes when she looked at the half pocket of fried peanuts in the hands of the Japanese and the insoles of the two hands. Spring knows that Grandma Yang's dizzy eyes have to take these two pairs of insoles with a stitch and a thread, and I don't know how many nights she has to stay up. There is also the half pocket of fried peanuts, maybe the Yang family saved it from their mouths, and it was a snack specially for Xiao Jiachao to satisfy her cravings. But now, with her sincerity and enthusiasm, the old man surprised the visiting Japanese, and also shocked Chun and the accompanying Chinese officials.

The group walked out of the small courtyard of the Yang family, Grandma Yang shook hands with the two Japanese elders and said goodbye, and the crowd slowly walked towards the Cuijiagou Village Committee under the leadership of Spring. After walking a long way, I could still see Grandma Yang's thin figure standing at the entrance of the alley in the spring, still reluctantly waving to the crowd walking away.

The group came to the parking lot in front of the village committee, taking advantage of the chaos of the crowd getting into the car, the deputy mayor Xu Wenkai pulled over the spring, and told the spring to go to the police car in front of him to lead the way, and the next stop was to the "Haitian Hotel" in Heishuigou Village, Hushan Town. As soon as Spring heard it, he understood what Xu Wenkai's purpose was to lead the way to the "Haitian Hotel" by himself, and he couldn't help scratching his head in confusion. Chun wanted to ask Xu Wenkai, didn't the Japanese already offer to rush back to Dongzhou City? Why did they forcibly keep the guests? You must know that the cost of eating for these 40 or 50 people is not a small amount, and the town government has this money to do something, so why do they have to eat and drink? But when the words came to his lips, Chun swallowed the words vigorously. Spring understands that he is soft-spoken, and if he really wants to say this, not only will it not help, but he may also get into trouble for himself, so it is better not to say it.

At this moment, the branch secretary and village head of Cuijiagou Village hurriedly rushed towards the crowd. This is a sturdy middle-aged man, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, dark skin, at first glance it is the result of years of field work, it can be seen that he has just come back from the field, his trouser legs are still half pulled, and his hands and feet are covered with yellow mud.

While greeting the familiar government leaders, the family member of Cuijiagou Village rushed to the car of Song Chunshan, secretary of the town party committee, and explained something to Song Chunshan with a cramped expression through the glass. The location of Spring and Xu Wenkai is not far from Song Chunshan, and Spring can hear him explain to Song Chunshan that he didn't know that the leader was coming, so he didn't wait in the village committee in advance, ask the leader to understand, etc., and asked Song Chunshan if he had any work instructions.

Song Chunshan smiled and waved his hand, to tell the truth, as the "soil emperor" of one acre and three points of land in Hushan Town, Song Chunshan has rarely had contact and impression of these grassroots village cadres, but Song Chunshan doesn't know them, they don't dare not know Song Chunshan, so Song Chunshan's heart is still full of respect for Cui Jiagou, the head of the family.

When this family member of Cuijiagou asked about the work instructions, Song Chunshan groaned slightly, and suddenly asked him to go to the town tomorrow to find the director of the civil affairs office to see if he could find a way to solve some practical difficulties for Grandma Yang's family. Song Chunshan's words made Spring secretly happy in his heart, as long as Song Chunshan spoke, the director of the Civil Affairs Office would have to give Grandma Yang's family some help, unless his director of the Civil Affairs Office didn't want to do it. If this visit can really help Grandma Yang's family solve some practical problems, it will also be a good surprise.

The convoy set off again, still leading the way in the police car at the front, and the unsuspecting Japanese were still sitting in the two minibuses, believing that these officials at all levels were now escorting them out of the country as they had greeted them earlier. The ushering and sending that is valued by Chinese officials is the most important link in the reception activities of officialdom, and it is an important aspect of expressing the friendship of the host and reflecting the politeness of the quality. Through the exchanges in the past few days, these Japanese people have also had a general understanding of the current situation of Chinese officialdom, although they are not used to it, they can only follow the local customs, otherwise, they feel a little sorry for the enthusiasm of these officials at all levels.
