Seeing Yan Qingnan communicating with the villagers, it was not only Liu Dahai who was nervous, but Liu Hongkun and Ma Kaishan were just as nervous. If Yan Qingnan heard anything bad from the villagers, they wouldn't be able to escape.

Yan Qingnan carefully inquired about the living conditions of the elderly in the village, whether the subsistence allowance was received on time, whether there were regular free clinics in the town, and how the crops were harvested.

Gu Xiaoyu saw the gap, approached Lin Dong, and gently touched him with his arm.

"Old squad leader, what do you command?" Lin Dong said with a smile.

Gu Xiaoyu said: "I told you earlier, don't call me the old squad leader, call me Xiaoyu!" ”

Lin Dong smiled.

"Lin Dong, is it okay to meet today? Secretary Yan is here, look at how big your face is! Gu Xiaoyu said with a smile.

Lin Dong nodded, "Thank you for working hard for me in the back." ”

"You really wronged me, Secretary Yan really cares about you, and she has always taken the initiative to ask me about your situation. This time, too, when I learned that you were back, I temporarily postponed an important meeting and took a day out to rush over. Gu Xiaoyu is not boasting, Yan Qingnan really values Lin Dong very much, not because Lin Dong is rich, but because he values his ambition to serve his hometown!

The reporters of the newspaper and the TV station came, and Liu Dahai was busy, busy greeting them. He commanded a few close relatives and began to carry the local products of the village to the reporters' cars, and he also scattered cigarettes in circles and circles.

Today's scene was much bigger than he expected, especially Yan Qingnan's appearance, which brought him unparalleled shock and surprise. It really made his face glow!

After chatting with the old man in the village, Yan Qingnan took the initiative to ask to see Lin Dong's parents.

Liu Dahai searched for a long time, and stepped on the corner to find the second elder of the Lin family.

Yan Qingnan grabbed Mother Lin's hands as soon as he came up, "My thanks to you two, you gave birth to a good son, I thank you on behalf of the people of the county." ”

The second elder of the Lin family has never seen such a big official, and he is so excited that he doesn't know what to say. The old couple just laughed.

Mother Lin's mouth was more neat, and she said: "Secretary Yan is polite, our family owner has just done something small for the village." It's not worth your praise for him. ”

Yan Qingnan sighed: "Eldest sister, Lin Dong didn't just donate money to build a bridge for your village, he did a great thing for the county!" ”

The second elder of the Lin family looked dazed. As if I didn't understand.

Liu Dahai introduced Lin Hongkuan to Yan Qingnan, "Secretary Yan, this is the old lady of our village, the oldest generation, take me to preside over the groundbreaking ceremony today." ”

Yan Qingnan glanced at Lin Hongkuan, held his hand and said, "The old man has a good body." ”

Lin Hongkuan smiled and said: "Yes, our Liulinzhuang is beautiful, I am reluctant to die early." ”

"Taigong, on a good day, what do you say that you can't die!" Liu Dahai looked displeased.

Lin Hongkuan didn't even look at him. Liu Dahai didn't dare to say anything, he knew Lin Hongkuan's temper, and if he didn't get it right, he would be scolded on the spot.

"The auspicious time has come, Secretary Yan, why don't we start?" Liu Dahai asked respectfully.

Yan Qingnan nodded. "Okay."

Facing the old bridge, the leaders of the county and town stood in a row, Liu Dahai waved his hand, Liu Dahe lit the firecrackers, and for a while, the crackling sound shook everyone's eardrums, and the sound spread far away. Summoned all the idlers from the neighboring villages.

Lin Hongkuan presided over the groundbreaking ceremony, and he told the villagers about the history of the old bridge with tears in his eyes, which was interspersed with some people and some things, which caused many elderly villagers to shed tears, adding a bit of heavy atmosphere to the festive groundbreaking ceremony.

Newspaper and television reporters were busy interviewing villagers and taking many photographs. At Lin Dong's request, he took a photo of the villagers and Lao Qiao. Lin Dong told all the villagers that the photo would be washed out and given to each family. …,

When cutting the red silk, Lin Dong and Yan Qingnan were together. But Lin Dong refused, and finally Liu Dahai cut the red silk instead of him.

There are not so many complicated procedures for the groundbreaking ceremony in the countryside, and Lin Dong and the leaders in the county and town have dug up a shovel of soil by themselves.

The next link is not ambiguous, the villagers are very superstitious, so every family in the village will slaughter animals and sacrifice to the gods when they start building a house. Building a bridge is a big event for Liulinzhuang, so Liu Dahai has been prepared early in the morning, and a table of eight immortals has been set up on the riverside in front of the old bridge, which is full of offerings, with livestock, melons and fruits and snacks.

At the outermost end of the table of the Eight Immortals were two large candlesticks, on which the red candle the thickness of the arm was burning. It stands to reason that it was still foggy in the morning, and after the firecrackers were released just now, the sky suddenly cleared, and as soon as the sun came out, it immediately drove away the dense fog between heaven and earth.

In the middle of the candlestick is an incense altar, and there are already many incense candles on the table.

Entering the local customs, although Yan Qingnan is an atheist, he took the lead in worshipping incense. Since her, people from the town and county have all put incense on her in turn.

After the worship, the contents of the table should not be wasted, and according to the customs of the village, after the ceremony is over, those things can be taken down and eaten. The children of the village had been waiting for that moment for a long time, and as soon as the ceremony was over, they rushed forward like a swarm to snatch their favorite food.

By noon, the villagers had dispersed.

"Leaders, there are some wine and dishes at home, all of which are local local dishes, it's noon, and the leaders will finish eating before leaving." Liu Dahai said, very nervous, if Yan Qingnan and the others didn't give him face, then it means that he didn't make a good impression on them today.

Yan Qingnan glanced at Lin Dong, "Okay, then thank you Secretary Liu." ”

Liu Dahai put a hanging heart into his stomach, but he didn't know that the reason why Yan Qingnan stayed was completely for Lin Dong's face.

When he returned to the village, Liu Dahai was still sitting on a wheelbarrow. He was in a good mood today, he met the secretary of the county party committee, shook hands with the secretary of the county party committee, and invited the secretary of the county party committee to have a meal at home.

Gu Xiaoyu asked Yan Qingnan for leave and said that he wanted to take a walk on the riverside with Lin Dong.

Yan Qingnan knew that they were old classmates, and felt that these two were a good match, and hoped that Gu Xiaoyu could develop with Lin Dong in his heart. Of course, she is also selfish, if Lin Dong and Gu Xiaoyu get married, then Huaicheng County's status in his heart will be even more important. In that way, there is no fear that Lin Dong will not invest in Huaicheng County.

After everyone dispersed, the Twin Demon River quickly returned to its former calm, and only the firecracker paper on the ground and the smell of sulfur in the air could prove that it had been lively just now. (Your support on this site is my biggest motivation.) )
