Chapter Twenty-Five: Raising a Baby*
While talking, the three of them came to a meadow in the mountains. The green grass was spread on the hillside like a blanket, and in a trance, Gao Hongfei thought he had come to the grassland.
It was a very wide meadow, and at the edge of the meadow there was a stream that flowed through it, bent it, and flowed into the valley below.
"This place..."
Gao Hongfei's eyes became brighter and brighter. He was about to say something, but Liu Fugui suddenly made a silent gesture towards him, and moved forward a little bit on the grass with his buttocks.
Gao Hongfei was amused by Liu Fugui's appearance, and laughed out loud.
"Shhh......hhh
Liu Fugui suddenly pounced and pulled a straw rope towards a certain place.
"Giggle..."
said that it was too late, Liu Fugui hooked his hand, tightened the straw rope, and with a flick of his arm, a net pocket flew into his hand. There was a poor chicken inside, clucking and clucking.
"Haha, I've got it!" Zhang Xiaozhao clapped his hands and stepped forward happily, "Ah, this is a pheasant." Uncle Liu, is it your set?"
Liu Fugui smiled, raised the pheasant in his net pocket, and said to Gao Hongfei: "At noon today, let's eat it!"
Gao Hongfei, who was distracted, saw the clucking pheasant and suddenly his eyes lit up.
He suddenly tilted his head and looked at Zhang Xiaozhao, "Hehe, hehe......."
"Brother Gao, why are you looking at me like this?" Looking at Gao Hongfei, who was smirking at her with his arms in his arms, Zhang Xiaozhao felt a mess in his heart. couldn't help but take a few steps back and distance himself from Gao Hongfei.
"Hey, hey, hey......".
In an instant, Gao Hongfei was in a good mood, and he couldn't wait to hug Liu Fugui and kiss him. Of course, Liu Fugui is an old man in his fifties, too shabby. If you want to hug it, you have to hug Zhang Xiaozhao.
"Hey, hey, hey......".
Gao Hongfei approached Zhang Xiaozhao with a smirk and winked at her: "Xiaozhao, I have thought of what project to do." ”
Zhang Xiaozhao was stunned, "So fast, tell me, what to do?"
Gao Hongfei smiled, but sold the guanzi: "Secret!"
"Hey, it's still a secret. Don't talk about pulling down, who is rare!"
Zhang Xiaozhao pouted and went to the pheasant with Liu Fugui. Leaving behind Gao Hongfei, who was still laughing non-stop, made him a little embarrassed.
Two more pheasants were set, and the three of them went down the mountain. Liu Fugui repeatedly kept him for lunch and then went back. After postponing a few words, Gao Hongfei was not polite, and when he arrived at Liu Fugui's house, he sat cross-legged on the kang.
On the contrary, it was Zhang Xiaozhao, who was a little unaccustomed to returning to such a dilapidated house for the first time. She was a little hesitant to sit, afraid that the stains on the stool would stain her white pants.
"Xiao Zhao, do you know how to drive?"
Gao Hongfei didn't care about Zhang Xiaozhao's embarrassment, and asked her coldly.
"Yes, what's up?"
"Then turn around and drive. Gao Hongfei instructed, turned his head to Liu Fugui and said, "Uncle Liu, do you have any wine, do you have some wine, call Accountant Mao by the way, let's sum it up." ”
Director Mao is the accountant of Liushu Village, and to put it mildly, Liushu Village is such a big place. In fact, there are only two cadres, one is Liu Fugui, the village party secretary and director, and the other is Mao Youcai, the accountant and security director. If there is anything in the village, he will also sum it up, and then meet with a few old people in the village, and it will be over.
Liu Fugui called Mao Youcai to come, and the four of them gathered a table. Mrs. Liu Fugui slaughtered the chicken and took out a jar of barley to burn. After serving the food, Gao Hongfei was hungry, so he rolled up his sleeves and split it. That posture made people look at it, and they thought they had been hungry for three days.
Zhang Xiaozhao sat next to the kang, took the chopsticks in the head, held the vegetables from a distance, chewed and swallowed slowly, one bite at a time. To be honest, she's a bit hard to swallow. But looking at Gao Hongfei, it's quite refreshing to eat Haisai's food. She was a little depressed, what kind of person is this!
After a few glasses of wine, Gao Hongfei opened the topic.
"Liu Zhishu, Accountant Mao, let's raise a *. ”
"Chickens?"
The three people at the table all looked at Gao Hongfei.
"Well, chickens. ”
Raising chickens is Gao Hongfei's mountain road, and he gradually has a clear idea in his mind.
The reason is simple, consider shipping.
Liushu Village is the poorest village in Hongshan Town, with more than 100 households and a population of more than 400. Among them, there are more than 100 young and strong laborers, and most of them go to work in developed areas. Those who remain in the village are basically the old, weak, sick and disabled.
He also thought about planting trees, but he could plant trees, even if he didn't consider the problem of transportation, how could labor solve the problem?
It's so unrealistic.
If you raise chickens, these old, weak, sick and disabled people can come in handy. Not to mention that the old people in the village themselves are raising chickens, even the children in the village can catch a chicken and run all over the ground.
As for transportation, a two-meter-wide gravel road can be loaded on an agricultural tricycle, which is much more convenient than a heavy truck.
What Gao Hongfei was sure of what he expected in his heart was the grass where he was caught chickens by Liu Fugui.
With such a wide meadow and surrounded by a two-meter-wide mountain stream, this is the most suitable place for free-range poultry.
Raise pheasants, that's it!
He told the three of them these thoughts, and Liu Fugui and Mao Youcai's eyes became brighter and brighter the more they listened.
Zhang Xiaozhao was surprised, "Is he really here?"
Do you really want to toss in this poor ravine?
Zhang Xiaozhao was a little unconvinced.
Treating others with himself, Zhang Xiaozhao is pinching his nose and eating. If it weren't for Gao Hongfei's insistence on eating here, she would have run away long ago.
However, because of this, Zhang Xiaozhao became more and more surprised by Gao Hongfei.
A top student from a prestigious university in the provincial capital, but he went to the countryside to work as a civil servant. Zhang Xiaozhao is becoming more and more curious about Gao Hongfei, what kind of person is he?
As he was talking, there was a sudden commotion outside the door.
Mrs. Liu Fugui ran in and said, "Senior cadre, Liu Dazhu is outside, I originally planned to come in." I said you were eating, and he said he would come in when you were done. ”
Liu Fugui was anxious, "You mother-in-law, call him in." ”
Liu Fugui's fat woman was anxious, "I asked him to come in, but he refused." ”
"Hey, how do you say this, how can we eat and ask someone to wait, I'll call him. ”
Gao Hongfei slipped his shoes and jumped off the kang, and went out without putting on his shoes.
Zhang Xiaozhao didn't move, but the noise outside was louder. She was a little curious, and couldn't help but go out to see after Liu Fugui. At this glance, she saw something that stunned her.
Outside, there was an old man on crutches, dirty and not sloppy, leading a teenage girl, and the two of them knelt down towards Gao Hongfei together. Gao Hongfei dragged the old man desperately, and helped the girl to prevent them from kneeling.
What's going on?
"Maoye, don't do this. It's just a little thing, those who can't afford it, get up quickly, don't be like this. ”
Gao Hongfei pulled left and right, while asking Liu Fugui's mother-in-law to help people.
"No, no, no, senior cadres, you let our father and daughter kowtow to you, otherwise, I'm uneasy. ”
The old man wiped his tears and dragged the girl: "Mao Ye, quick, kowtow to the senior cadres with my father." His great kindness, you have to remember it for a lifetime!"
"It's... What are you going to do?"
Zhang Xiaozhao squeezed to Gao Hongfei's side, and Liu Fugui's courtyard was already crowded with onlookers at this time. Zhang Xiaozhao didn't know what to do, and he was a little panicked.
"Xiao Zhao, don't be stunned, help me help people. ”
Gao Hongfei eagerly opened his mouth towards Zhang Xiaozhaonunu.
Liu Fugui persuaded with emotion on the side: "Otherwise, you can let Mao Ye kneel for you." I know Dazhu's fierce seed, if you don't agree, he won't leave today. ”
Gao Hongfei was anxious, "I said Liu Zhishu, aren't you doing me a favor." How big it is to kneel around, this is not a feudal society. We're all party members, and the old feudal set doesn't have it, isn't this a bastard? ”
"Uncle Gao, Teacher Fan told me that it was you who came to my house to persuade my father, and said that you would pay for my tuition, so my father let me continue to study, so let me kowtow to you. ”
Saying that, the little girl rushed to kneel in front of Gao Hongfei, who was one head and two big.
Zhang Xiaozhao was confused when she heard this, but at this point, she finally understood that Gao Hongfei actually subsidized the tuition and miscellaneous fees of out-of-school students! Her heart was turbulent, and she became more and more incomprehensible to Gao Hongfei.
This guy is a little too much.
Eyeballs rolled. Zhang Xiaozhao stepped forward and said to the little girl: "Little sister, your name is Mao Ye, right?" Did the teacher teach you, only your parents and elders can kowtow. You have to kowtow to Director Gao, he turned around and went to the unit, and he was known, but he had to be punished. ”
"Ahh So what to do?"
The little girl was so anxious that she was about to cry.
"It's simple", Zhang Xiaozhao picked up the willow hairy leaves, looked at Gao Hongfei again, and said with a smile: "You have to study hard, you will be admitted to university in the future to get ahead, and take your parents to leave this poor ravine." This is the best reward for Director Gao. You say yes, Director Gao?"
Gao Hongfei nodded hurriedly.
"No!" Liu Maoye shook his head. Looking at Gao Hongfei, he said solemnly: "I want to study hard and be admitted to university, and when I grow up in the future, I will be a cadre like Uncle Gao and go back to our village to work." ”
"Good!"
In the crowd of onlookers, someone suddenly clapped their hands and shouted.
"Okay, the hairy leaf girl is so ambitious. The senior cadres are doing well!"
Gao Hongfei looked around, and it was Liu Laohan with a little hairy head applauding. The villagers on the side also applauded when they heard Liu Laohan's applause. Even the little hairy head next to Liu Laohan slapped vigorously, Gao Hongfei looked at him, this kid was stupid.
Gao Hongfei was in a surging mood, and the villagers were simple. Whoever is good to them, they all see in their eyes and remember in their hearts. At this moment, Gao Hongfei was very moved.
