It was a sunny and breezy Sunday, and a silver-white car quietly drove into Meixi Village and stopped in front of the village committee office building. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Since Meixi Village developed a leisure tourism resort, Huang Daniu has hardly rested on Saturdays and Sundays, and now he and Hua Qiangqiang are arranging various tasks in the office. Hearing the movement outside the window, he couldn't help but look around. I saw an old man 60 miles away, supported by a young man, and got out of the car.

The old man was on crutches, and although his body was a little inconvenient, he was in good spirits, and he was looking around, as if he was looking for something.

"Daddy!" Hua Qiangqiang happily ran out of the office and greeted the old man.

Huang Daniu understood that this old man was Hua Mingwei, the father of Secretary Hua Qiangqiang, and couldn't help but follow out excitedly.

"Uncle Hua, I finally see you!" Huang Da Niu looked at the old man and said excitedly, and his hands had already held one of the old man's hands.

Hua Mingwei also looked at Huang Da Niu with a smile, as if he guessed who he was.

Hua Qiangqiang introduced: "Dad, he is Huang Daniu, the director of the village committee, that is, the village chief Niu I often mention to you. ”

"Well, that's spirity, I guessed it from the beginning." The old man was very talkative and cheerful.

"By the way, Director Huang, this is my love, ****." Hua Qiangqiang introduced Huang Daniu to the man who helped the old man get out of the car.

Huang Daniu took a closer look at Secretary Hua Qiangqiang's husband, and couldn't help but marvel, only to see that he was handsome and burly, calm and generous, and Secretary Qiang Qiang was simply a natural pair, a pair made from the ground.

"Hello! Welcome! Huang Da Niu stretched out his hand and said.

He also stretched out his hand to hold Huang Da Niu's hand and said, "The name of the village chief who has been admired for a long time, when I see it today, it is worthy of the name, Niu!" ”

"Hahaha......"

Although it was the first time we met, everyone seemed relaxed and uninhibited. Huang Daniu invited the old man Hua Mingwei and the husband of Secretary Hua Qiangqiang to sit in the office, and Zhou Yafang also came down from upstairs to make tea and greet the admirable old man warmly.

"Uncle Hua, why didn't you say it first and came, you see that we are not prepared at all!" Huang Da Niu said very reluctantly.

"Da Niu Village Chief, don't see outside, I just want to come down and take a look, don't bother about me, and don't alarm the villagers. Later, you can take us down and have a look. At the end of the day, I have to pay tribute to the two old people who have passed away. Hua Mingwei said easily and affectionately.

Hua Qiangqiang knew that his father was going to worship Huang Daniu's grandfather and grandmother, that is, the parents of Hua Mingwei's good comrade-in-arms Huang Dongsheng, so he said: "Dad, let me tell you good news, in fact, Director Huang is the nephew of Huang Dongsheng's uncle. ”

"Oh!" The old man stared at Huang Da Niu in surprise, and then said to Huang Da Niu: "No wonder when I saw you for the first time just now, I always felt familiar, it turned out to look similar to your uncle's appearance back then!" ”

Huang Daniu smiled: "We should be like the same root, the same ancestor, and the same bloodline." ”

"Hmmm! The personality is also similar, I heard Qiang Qiang say, upright and stubborn, enthusiastic and kind, it is really a party to raise a person! Hua Mingwei nodded while looking at Huang Daniu.

"Uncle Hua, when my grandfather and grandmother were here, they often talked about you!" Huang Da Niu muttered.

"Ouch, I'm ashamed to say it, that is, I came to Meixi Village to see the old man in the year I transferred to work in the local area, and I haven't been here since, alas, I'm ashamed!" Hua Mingwei said.

"Uncle Hua, don't blame yourself, in fact, you work in another city, and you are a leader, it is impossible to have time to come, my grandfather and grandmother will not blame you, they often tell me and my family, 'Your Uncle Hua is a leader in the unit, and the work must be very busy, and it is a long way away from us, it is not easy to come here, but he is thinking about us, and he sends money on time every month, which blessing we have cultivated in our life, there is such a good son!'." They were still talking like this in their last days! Huang Daniu said.

Hua Mingwei couldn't help but burst into tears when he heard this, and said, "I should come and see them!" Should come! ”

Huang Daniu explained: "Uncle Hua, my grandfather and grandmother died in the same year, and my grandfather also left after my grandmother left for half a year. They don't let us tell you at the last minute, saying don't affect your work. ”

Everyone was silent, and Hua Mingwei was even more heavy.

"Dad, let's go out for a walk, you see that you have been separated for more than 30 years, and you will definitely have some surprises and gains when you revisit the old place!" Hua Qiangqiang was afraid that his father would be too sad and sad, so he made a suggestion.

"That's right, Uncle Hua, let's go down and take a slow walk, and by the way, please give us some advice on our work." Huang Da Niu also said.

The old man, accompanied by his daughter and son-in-law, Huang Daniu, and Zhou Yafang, gradually walked into the depths of the village.

The old man admired as he walked: "The stone road is still there, but it is cleaner than before; The old house with black tiles and white walls is still there, but the walls are whiter than before, the windows are brighter than before, and the pillars are smoother than before; The mountains are greener, the water is cleaner, and the flowers are blooming more delicately. The green mountains are dripping with green and green cattle walking, and the cottages are plain and elegant and full of smoke, which really gives people the feeling of returning to the basics. You have not only protected the ecology, but also developed the economy, which is commendable! It's not worth it if something new is developed but something that was originally good is destroyed. Gold and silver mountains are not as good as green waters and green mountains! ”

The old man's earnest words are not only an affirmation of the work of young people but also an earnest teaching to young people, and Huang Daniu, Hua Qiangqiang, and Zhou Yafang are all encouraged.

When he came to the edge of the hot spring bath and looked at the cars full of tourists, the old man smiled and said: "Business is really booming, this girl Qiang Qiang really didn't lie to me!" ”

"Hey, Dad, why should I lie to you!" Hua Qiang said coquettishly.

"Hahaha......" everyone laughed.

When he walked to the meat and vegetarian restaurant, the old man looked at it for a long time, and then said: "Who designed these two buildings, they are beautiful and creative, they have both modern atmosphere and ancient charm, they are magnificent but not impetuous, coquettish but not vulgar, they are really good!" ”

"Dad, we designed it ourselves, do you know what these two houses are for?" Hua Qiang teased his father.

"Entertainment? No, I remember, meat and vegetarian food hall, go, go in, we have lunch here today, I'm in for a treat! The old man said cheerfully.

"Dad, look at your urgency, this place hasn't opened yet, and the interior is being renovated!" Hua Qiangqiang said.

"Hahaha......" everyone laughed again.

"Uncle Hua, it's time for me to invite you to dinner today, I have asked my daughter-in-law to kill the chickens and ducks at home, today I will taste the chickens and ducks raised in my cottage, it's really good!" Huang Da Niu said enthusiastically.

After having lunch at Huang Daniu's house, the old man went to the mountain to pay respects to the parents of his comrade-in-arms Huang Dongsheng. The old man stood in front of the grave of the second elder and said in a deep voice, "Old man, I'm late! I'm sorry I couldn't do anything for you, old man! When I was in the army, Dongsheng said to me, he said, our village is beautiful, but because there are no roads, the life of the villagers there is very difficult, and my parents have never gone out of the city to play. He also said that after the self-defense and counterattack war, he would return to his hometown and lead the villagers to blow up the mountains and open the way, so that the villagers could embark on the road to prosperity, and so that his parents could go out of the mountains to the city. Alas, I have never been able to find a chance to fulfill the wishes of my comrades...... However, my daughter Hua Qiangqiang fulfilled my wish, he and your nephew Huang Daniu, as well as the village officials, worked together to build Meixi Village into a beautiful leisure and ecological tourist village, in the near future, everyone in Meixi Village will become rich and live a good life, you can rest in peace! ”

When Hua Mingwei was about to leave Huang Da Niu's house, Huang Da Niu's mother brought out a small wooden box with a lock from the room and handed him a key, saying that it was handed over to Hua Mingwei by Da Niu's grandfather before he died, but he never found the opportunity.

Hua Mingwei stared at the small wooden box with his eyes locked and his brows tightened, wondering what it contained.

"Dad, look at what you're guessing nonsense, won't it be clear at a glance when you open it!" Hua Qiangqiang said.

Huang Da Niu also said: "Uncle Hua, just open it!" ”

Hua Mingwei carefully opened the small wooden box, and everyone was stunned. It turned out that the small wooden box was full of neat stacks of RMB, and there was a small note pressed on it.

Hua Mingwei gently picked up the small note and read it carefully.

"Mingwei, it's not easy for you to get that salary when you work in the city, we advise you not to send us any more money, but you still keep sending us money, we are very upset. In fact, we can receive a pension from the government every month, which is basically enough for our daily needs. We're all old, and we live in the mountains, so we don't have any money to spend, so we put all the money you send in this little wooden box, even if we help you save the money, and when you retire and have time, you can come in here and have fun, and get the money back by the way. Dongsheng parents. ”

After reading the note, Hua Mingwei was so excited that he couldn't speak.

Everyone took the note and shed tears.

Hua Mingwei donated all the money left by the old man to the tourism cause of Meixi Village.

When Hua Mingwei was leaving, a large number of villagers suddenly rushed in front of the village office building, some of them were holding chickens and ducks, some were holding dried bamboo shoots, dried mushrooms and honey, saying that they were given to the old man to bring back to the city.

The old man was so moved that he asked everyone to keep their things for their own use.

Everyone said to the old man: "You not only sent your only daughter down and worked hard for us, but also donated most of your life savings to us to build a tourist village, you are our living Buddha, and we should remember you and respect you for generations!" If you don't take these things, we won't let you go! ”

In the end, the old man only accepted a few mountain goods to show his gratitude on the grounds that there was no place to store them at home, and then returned to the city.
