Chapter 183: The Finale
Five years later, the high-speed railway to Wujia Village was officially opened, tourism resources have been vigorously developed and supported, the economic income of local residents has increased by leaps and bounds, and the per capita income of Wujia Village and nearby villages has reached the well-off level stipulated by the state, completely out of the hat of poor areas.
Because of its steady and rapid development, Mrs. Wu's company was recommended by the local government as a key local development enterprise, and Xu Ming's development project was also listed as a national key tourist attraction. Both Mrs. Wu and Xu Ming have been commended by the government and society for their indelible contributions to the poverty alleviation and prosperity of the people in the entire impoverished area as leaders in local economic development.
Time flies, and it seems that they have supported each other for ten years. Xiao Xue'er will go to elementary school in the early fall of this year, and her brother and sister-in-law's baby are about to be born. Mrs. Wu touched her slightly bulging lower abdomen and looked at Xu Ming beside her with a happy face. The country has fully opened the two-child policy, and they also have their second child, and Mrs. Wu is already four months pregnant.
Although Wang's mother is getting older, her skills are becoming more and more vigorous and agile, Reiko is about to give birth, and Wang's mother laughs from ear to ear every day, and even dreams of chuckling. Because of the preparation of things for the baby's birth, Wang's mother is very busy every day.
"Madam, you just stay there and don't move, your body is not convenient, let your mother come, let your mother come." Seeing that Mrs. Wu was busy helping her wash the small clothes and bedding used when the baby was born, Mother Wang hurriedly snatched the work in Mrs. Wu's hand and said.
"Mom, no, the doctor said that proper exercise is better for the baby." Xu Ming, who was also helping to clean up, said.
"Movement is movement, labor is labor. If you want to exercise, you go to the village to wander, go to see the flowers and birds, this washing clothes and cooking, this is labor, we don't all say it, this labor is up to us. Wuduo's mother on the side also said with Wang's mother.
Since Reiko and Mrs. Wu were pregnant one after another, the family was too busy, and Wuduo's mother often came to help, it can be said that she came almost every day, and Xu's father also followed Wuduo's mother to take care of Xiao Xue'er, and occasionally took Xiao Xue'er to the house to take care of her. Xiao Xue'er and Xu's father are very close to each other, and grandpa and grandpa follow him behind his ass every day. For this reason, at the beginning, Wang's mother didn't eat wrong, and said: "My niece is my grandmother's dog, and I leave when I am full. ”
Father Xu didn't mind that Mother Wang was jealous, so he carried Xiao Xue'er on his shoulders every day to walk and watch the birds, tell her stories, tell her stories when he was a child, and occasionally tell her stories about Grandma Xu. The person Xiao Xue'er admires most now is the self-made Grandma Xu, and she often says that she wants to go back to the south to see and grow up to be a strong woman like Grandma Xu.
Mrs. Wu put down the work in her hand under the attack of the two old men, and said with a smile: "Then, I'll go out with Xu Ming for a walk, just right, I'll see if there are any fresh vegetables in the market." Because of the rapid development of tourism in the village, a farmers' market was built in front of Mrs. Wu's factory. Villagers and small traders bring their endless fresh vegetables and fruits and vegetables from all over the world to sell here every day.
Since Mrs. Wu's factory was built, her brother Defu and sister-in-law Reiko have also moved over. Because the factory needs workers to repair the machine, and Defu has always been good at this, so he works part-time in the factory. When the factory didn't need his work, he went out to do other work. Sister-in-law Lingzi works as a health supervision and management staff in the canteen, and walks around the back kitchen of the canteen every day with a big belly, to see if the vegetables in the canteen are fresh or not, and to see if the kitchen utensils are up to standard.
Xu Ming carefully supported Mrs. Wu, and the doctor said that because she was an elderly mother, she should pay special attention to her daily life, and Mrs. Wu's fetal reaction seemed to be much stronger, so she especially needed to take care of it. "It's better to go to the playground first to see Xiao Xue'er and Dad Xu before coming back to buy vegetables, it's still early to buy vegetables and cook in this world."
"It's fine." Mrs. Wu said with a smile that the doctor said that walking more every day is good for both the pregnant woman and the fetus. Therefore, Mrs. Wu has to walk from one end of the village to the other end of the village every day, to see the tourists coming and going, to see the rapid changes in the village, and to see the satisfied smiling faces of the old folks. Because of the development of the village, most of the villagers who had been working outside have returned. Many of the dilapidated houses that were originally abandoned have also been renovated into stone houses in the same style as Xu Ming's construction, or small hotels have been opened, or farmhouses have been opened. It has also attracted a lot of foreign merchants to invest and do business, and the village has never been more lively and prosperous.
"I heard that the third aunt will also come, and she started her old business of weaving at home?" Mrs. Wu asked Xu Mingdao on the side.
"Well, act quickly, I came back the day before yesterday, and I started to open my doors today." Xu Ming said with a smile. Speaking of the third aunt, both of them were deeply touched. It is said that the third aunt suffered a lot after going out to work, and the child who finally survived graduated and saved some money to find a job for the child, and was deceived by others. The mother and son were penniless and desperate, so they returned to the martial arts village.
"The reason why people are confined to face is probably because they can get mixed up." Mrs. Wu said with a smile.
"No, it's all the same. When I came back that day, I almost didn't recognize her, she was much older and haggard, but not as much as before. Xu Ming said.
"Wucai Wuwen's fish farm has been expanded and converted into a fishing garden, which is really good, and it is crowded all day long. I heard that there is also a membership system? Walking through the natural health fishing garden of Wucai Wu Wen's family, Mrs. Wu asked with a smile.
"No, two people have bright minds, and they don't have to say anything about business. It has also established its own publicity webpage and WeChat public platform, and the publicity work has been done very well. Xu Ming said.
Because the construction of the ancient houses in the village is based on the basic construction of the previous village, it does not affect the daily life, production and operation of the previous residents. Therefore, everyone was very supportive of Xu Ming's construction, and spontaneously accepted Xu Ming's unified design and arrangement. If you want to be a martial artist, you will consciously take out part of your income and hand it over to the village every year for the public construction of the village. The village now has not only set up a spontaneous study committee, but also a library, a leisure hall for the elderly, and a fitness and leisure club for the youth.
"Come out for a walk!" Uncle Wu saw the two of them passing by and greeted him warmly.
Because of the development of the catering industry, Uncle Wu's mutton is in short supply, and now he doesn't have to go out to catch the market, and someone will come to his house to buy it when the time comes. Probably because the economic conditions are better, Uncle Wu looks much more energetic.
"Uncle Wu, go free-range!" Xu Ming said hello with a smile.
"Well, let them walk more, not get sick, and the meat is fragrant." Uncle Wu said with a smile.
All kinds of grass in the woodlands on both sides of the village road are extremely dense and luxuriant, it is the best place for Uncle Wu to herd sheep.
"Uncle Wu's two sons have been sent to a specialized nursing hospital, and part of the cooperative medical treatment will be reimbursed, part of the civil affairs will be subsidized, and part of the village will also be helped, so he basically doesn't have to pay." Xu Ming looked at the back of the old man who was gradually moving away and said.
"Well, the old man has worked hard all his life, and he should enjoy himself when he is old." Mrs. Wu said that she heard that Xu Ming had also arranged for him to help, and several young adults in the village took turns to cook for the old man and talk to the old man when he had time.
"Look over there, the one with the red wine flag, guess who drove it." Xu Ming said with a smile.
"I've known for a long time, it's Lin Yue's favorite proprietress branch." Mrs. Wu said with a smile that Lin Yue persuaded the proprietress of her favorite rice hotel to come to Wujia Village to open a shop specializing in winemaking, and she also proudly bought shares, and specially called Mrs. Wu to tell her about it. She also said that when she came back from this trip around the world, she wanted to come to Wujia Village to live for a while, and she and Xu Lie concentrated on making people.
"You've always been walking with your head down, and you don't pay attention to this, why did you know this time? Oh, it's Lin Yue, she must have called to tell you. Xu Ming said with a smile.
"No, she's about to go back to China, and she said that she came here to make people this time. They also asked me to set aside the house next door to them, and they want to rent it for a long time. He also said that he wanted to buy the house and make it their base for man. Mrs. Wu relayed Lin Yue's words to Xu Ming.
"Let them go, they pay, and we can not give anything." Xu Ming said with a smile. Now the houses in the village basically have regular tenants and residents, and the houses are basically impossible to buy. If it weren't for Xu Ming's house on Lin Yue's side, it would have been bought at a high price.
"Well, as long as you don't embarrass her, she'll be happy." Mrs. Wu said with a smile.
"Hey, when was this café built, why didn't I care before?" Mrs. Wu said as she looked at the café next to the playground.
"A foreign merchant opened, and the decoration came a while ago and was just listed in the past few days. You know, where this man is, you can't guess. Xu Ming said mysteriously.
"Where? After all, it's my Greater China, and what can it be a foreign country?" Mrs. Wu smiled and teased Xu Mingdao.
"You really guessed wrong this time, it's really foreign, it's from the Philippines!" Xu Ming said with a smile.
"Wow, our village has attracted foreign merchants? Well, awesome, awesome. Xu Ming, it seems that you are really a great hero who saved the villagers of our Wujia Village! Mrs. Wu thought that she knew Xu Ming at first, and Xu Ming was full of confidence.
"Laughing, I'm just doing something I like in a place I like, and being able to change a place and improve the lives of a group of people, I feel a special sense of fulfillment, and I have also reaped the greatest happiness in my life." Xu Ming said proudly. He would never feel that what Mrs. Wu said was a compliment to himself, or a compliment to himself, and a realistic evaluation of himself!
"You're amazing, I'm not bad, my factory now has nearly two hundred people. It can solve the employment problem of many families in the surrounding villages and towns. Mrs. Wu said proudly.
"Well, you're amazing, I'm also powerful, we're a strong team." Xu Ming said with a smile.
In the playground in the distance, many people are playing with their children. Little Cher and her grandfather are riding the Trojan horse somewhere on the merry-go-round. The sun is just right, the spring breeze is also warm, and this kind of day is the best time to be a merry-go-round.
"By the way, Wu Da and Bai Yuzhu came here a year later, saying that they wanted to do something for the village and wanted to donate to build a welfare home, did you agree?" Mrs. Wu asked.
"I agreed, why didn't I agree, they didn't look for me and just looked for the town, since they came to our company and wanted to supervise the construction through our company, it was our support and trust, why didn't I agree." To be honest, I appreciate their trust. Xu Ming said.
"Well, their guesthouse is doing well, and it is said that they have opened a number of chain stores." Mrs. Wu said.
"Well, as long as you work hard, everything will get better and better." Xu Ming hugged Mrs. Wu and sighed.
"Yes, the truth." Mrs. Wu said as she stroked her bulging belly.
Just as the two of them were chatting leisurely about the changes in the village and the feelings in their hearts, a panting voice came, it was the voice of Takedo's mother.
"Madam, Xu Ming, quick, quick, call your dad, call your dad over." Wuduo's mother shouted at Xu's father, who was playing the merry-go-round with Xiao Xue'er in the distance: "Old Xu, old Xu, come here, look, look, who's back." ”
Mrs. Wu and Xu Ming turned around curiously to look, and in the bright sun, a handsome and tall man with sword eyebrows and starry eyes stood in the April sunshine, with a modest and warm smile on his face, and beside him was a delicate and beautiful young woman who looked gentle and kind. The woman leaned gently into the man's arms, a little shame on her face. The man's hand gently put his hand around the woman's shoulder, and at a glance, they were a pair of sweet lovers.
"Budo." Xu Ming shouted lightly.
"It's me, I'm back." Wudo said with a smile. The face was handsome and healthy in the sunlight.
"Budo!" Father Xu, who rushed over, shouted excitedly.
"Well, Dad, Mom, I'm back." Vudo said.
"It's good to be back, it's good to be back." Father Xu said with a smile, and Xiao Xue'er on his body pointed at Wu Duo curiously and asked, "Grandpa, who is this." He tilted his head and thought for a while and said: "He calls you Dad, and my dad also calls you Dad, so it seems that he is Dad's brother, and he looks younger and hotter than my Dad, probably my uncle, Grandpa, you said I was right?" Then he said to Mrs. Wu next to him, "Mom, am I right?" ”
"Yes, call uncle." Mrs. Wu nodded and smiled.
"Well, hello uncle." Xiao Xue'er exclaimed sweetly.
"Hello." Wu Duo walked into Xiao Xue'er, stretched out his hand to hold Xiao Xue'er's hand and smiled.
A butterfly that took advantage of the warm breeze to come out early for a walk landed on their hands that they were holding together, and then flew away gently, flying in the middle of a group of people, stopping for a while and leaving. With the warm breeze at the end of April and the laughter of a group of kind and beautiful people, the butterfly flies towards the warm sun of May and towards a beautiful and happy tomorrow.
