Chapter 71: Zhou Cheng's Trip (1)
Xu Yaoguang chattered about the three elder brothers one by one, and poured two cups of strong tea, and his heart suddenly became much happier.
Later, Liang Xuetao asked him what he planned to do.
"What can I do, do what everyone wants, my eldest brother can't say it, so he relies on my dad .......to show off his power at home" Xu Yaoguang spread his hands and shook his shoulders helplessly.
This kind of family affairs involving the support of the elderly is indeed a headache.
Once he says it, Xu Guoguang's behavior will certainly be criticized, and the other three brothers will be more or less stained with the reputation of being unfilial.
Xu Yaoguang was only angry for a while, so he couldn't turn around, and when some of the resentment in his heart was vented and the whole person calmed down completely, his thoughts also changed.
The next day, after lunch, some aunts and daughters-in-law sat together and talked about the public well to be drilled in the village.
Since the water and electricity outages in Ota Village in late December, the power outages have been relentless, but the water outages are really a headache.
Speaking of which, it is common for water to be cut off in Datian Village over the years, so every household has basically drilled a well, just like Liang Xuetao's house, where there is a front and back yard.
Of course, not every house in the village has a water source underground.
In order to take care of these people, the village committee specially funded the construction of two wells in the village, which are considered public wells.
However, no matter how much well water there is, it is not inexhaustible, and over the years, the two wells are almost dry due to the frequent use rate.
However, during this time, because the outdoor temperature is too low, the only small river in the village formed by the confluence of several mountain springs in Yushan, a thick layer of ice is frozen on the river surface, and before the snow, it is already difficult to dig ice to get water, and now it is even more difficult.
Zhou Cheng saw that more than a dozen households in the village had a problem with water, so he immediately made a decision and found someone to dig three wells, and he paid for it.
He was a man of his word, and that afternoon, he brought back a diesel generator and several barrels of 100 liters of diesel from the county, and the next day he hired a master who specialized in drilling wells to go around the village to explore underground water sources.
The commotion was really big, and now almost everyone in the village knows about it, and when they heard that this fee was paid by him personally, everyone praised him for being a good secretary for a while.
In the next few days, several well-drilling masters came to the village one after another, and after some exploration, they began to drill wells.
This kind of weather, the weather is cold and frozen, in fact, it is not suitable to open a well, fortunately, it is the time of farming, the village is idle and the villagers are idle, more than a dozen young and middle-aged people have made a lot of effort, and three wells have been laid in a few days.
The next day, some households in the village, as well as the homes of the elderly and children left behind, received some food and daily necessities secretly sent by Zhou Cheng.
After delivering the supplies, Zhou Cheng went to Liang Xuetao's house.
Wei Hongyu soaked a pot of Lao Junmei, served it to the table, and then went back to his room.
Zhou Cheng picked up the teacup, took two sips of hot tea, and then groaned for a long time, and slowly said, "I'm going home, back to the capital." ”
Liang Xuetao was not surprised. In his previous life, he had returned to Datian Village after the end of the world and stayed for more than ten days, and there was no such person as Zhou Zhishu in the village at that time, so when he saw Zhou Cheng for the first time in his life, he expected such a day
He looked up at the other party and asked, "You won't come back in the future, will you?" ”
"Hmm!" Zhou Cheng nodded: "The order will come down in a few days, and it will be ....... in the future" He paused, and he didn't know what to say for a while, how about meeting again in the future? It seems too hypocritical to say this, and both parties actually know in their hearts that the possibility of meeting again is not great.
Liang Xuetao patted him on the shoulder: "When are you leaving?" ”
"Early tomorrow morning."
"Go to the city? Do you want me to drive you? Liang Xuetao asked casually.
Zhou Cheng shook his head: "No, Brother Xuetao, you don't have to mention this matter to others." ”
Liang Xuetao nodded.
The two chatted for a while, Zhou Cheng said goodbye and left, from beginning to end, he didn't mention the batch of materials stored in Liang Xuetao's house, and Liang Xuetao didn't seem to think about it.
However, Wei Hongyu learned that Zhou Cheng was leaving Datian Village, and suddenly asked about it.
Liang Xuetao smiled: "Do you think he didn't count in his heart? He couldn't take such a long way away, so he gave it to me as a favor. ”
Early the next morning, the sky was just white.
Zhou Cheng left the dormitory, and as soon as he left the village committee building, he saw Liang Xuetao carrying a black bag, standing at the gate leisurely, with a tall posture and a calm face, and the corners of his clothes on both sides of his body were slightly agitated with the morning breeze...
Liang Xuetao stepped forward, handed over the bag in his hand, and then said a smooth journey, turned around and left.
Zhou Cheng looked at his back as he gradually moved away, his heart was a little mixed, and his throat couldn't help but stir a few times.
If he hadn't served as the secretary of the village party committee of Datian Village, he would probably never have intersected with a clay leg like Liang Xuetao, counting the time, he stayed in Datian Village for more than a year, and in addition to the cadres of the village committee, it seems that he only made a friend like Liang Xuetao.
Thinking of this, he smiled and shook his head, then opened the door, got into the driver's seat, and slowly left Ota Village with the roar of a car.
After driving more than 200 kilometers all the way, getting off the highway, Zhou Cheng was about to drive in the direction of the airport, and suddenly saw a person on the right side of the road, who seemed to be waving to him, and glanced at the license plate number of the Audi A6 next to the other party, Zhou Cheng immediately stopped the car and opened the window to look over.
Soon, the other party came over.
A young man in his thirties, tall, navy blue cotton jacket, black trousers, three-seven hair, dressed quite gently, but his face is dark, with a collapsed nose and a wide mouth.
"Mr. Zhou!" The man briefly introduced himself.
After hearing this, Zhou Cheng couldn't help but secretly speculate that this kind of appearance can be the secretary of the city leader, either the background is hard, or it is extremely capable.
He frowned and said, "Didn't Mayor Xiong explain it to you clearly?" Don't pick me up, just wait for me at the airport. ”
Mayor Xiong, named Xiong Dingbang, deputy mayor of J City, member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, mainly focusing on finance and trade in J City, some time ago through an old classmate and Zhou Cheng's father, Zhou Yanhuai, hooked up, and now he is a peripheral member of Zhou Yanhuai's faction.
Secretary Chen leaned over slightly, and said slightly respectfully: "Mayor Xiong has repeatedly instructed me to be sure to entertain you well, originally he wanted to come in person, and you also know that the recent extraordinary times have led to a lack of skills......
When Zhou Cheng heard this, he couldn't help but smile playfully: "Uncle Xiong is too polite." ”
Twenty minutes later, the two cars slowly drove into Rongyun Airport in J City, one after the other.
