Chapter 754: One School, One Person
。 Li Feng was a little stunned, how could she be a female secretary, it is not easy to be an official in this poor and remote place. Different from places like Lijiagang, the economy is harmonious, the transportation is convenient, and there is no noisy people in the place. These remote places, inconvenient transportation, people's thoughts seem to be restricted by traffic, most people have strong local feelings, or reject outsiders, especially too barren and noisy things, but not easy to manage. And Gao Xiaolan in front of her doesn't look like a mountain person, although her face is a little sallow because of the water and soil, it is still not difficult to see the temperament of the people in the city.
"Hello, Secretary Gao." Li Xiaoman was a little surprised, but he still stretched out his hand and shook the woman in front of him, it is really not easy for a woman to be the leader of a town, especially in remote mountainous areas, where the conditions are too poor and too hard, few people are willing to stay here, and few people can stay here. Especially in Xiaogouqiao Town, there are still many small families, and many things are quite difficult to deal with.
"This secretary of Xiaoshuigou Village Miao is also the principal of Xiaoshuigou Primary School." Gao Xiaolan's words made Li Feng couldn't help but look at the old man in front of him who opened the door for himself, and it turned out to be the secretary of a village and the principal of a primary school, so could the child on the side be a primary school student. Li Feng didn't know that there were many impoverished places in Dajiang Province, but hearing was false and seeing was believing, and Li Feng had close contact for the first time. I thought that my village was not rich enough, and the village had just solved the problem of food and clothing, but the children in front of me had layers of black and brown oil spots on their shabby clothes, and it was not difficult to see how long these clothes had been worn. Sometimes when you lament that you are poor, it is better to think about these children in the mountains, perhaps how lucky you feel that you still have at least two sets of clean clothes to wear.
It won't be too late. Xiaoshuigou Village is in the mountains, and because of the narrow mountain roads, cars can't enter it at all. I can only take the donkey cart, and the baby and a few children think it is very interesting, but unfortunately the donkey cart is not much used to transport the materials brought this time, a truckload of clothes, as for schoolbags and stationery, etc., this time at the request of Li Xiaoman did not purchase. Stationery, school bags, these things are not practical at all. It's better to wear more clothes than to hold a shriveled schoolbag and stationery at all.
The donkey cart is loaded with thick winter clothes, and the quality of the 100,000 yuan purchase is guaranteed, there is no brand, the price is cheap, buy one more piece, Li Xiaoman has inquired before he came, and there are more than 300 children in the town whose families are in extreme poverty. The factory price of these clothes is only five or six yuan and ten yuan a set, these are Li Feng found someone to contact, last time Wang Lao's benefactor comrade-in-arms has been very grateful to Li Feng because of the improvement of cancer, this time I found this old man's grandson to help a little, people are responsible for this piece of management, a wide range of people, this matter is really a trivial matter.
Although the quality of the clothes is not the best, the warmth is good, and there is no harmful substance to ensure this. This time, most of the materials are clothes, grains and oils. There are few other things. It was all real material, and more than a dozen donkey carts could not be pulled down at all, and in the end, the more than ten children and the old principal carried a large bag of clothes. Li Feng didn't care at first, thinking that the road was not far and the clothes were not heavy.
Li Feng, Li Xiaoman, Xiaoqing, Gao Xiaolan, three children, plus a little black bear and a little monkey sitting on a donkey cart are still a little crowded. The slow donkey cart has been walking for half an hour, and there is no shadow of a mountain village. Li Feng asked Gao Xiaolan on the side with a little confusion.
"Secretary Gao, how far is Xiaoshuigou Village?" Gao Xiaolan replied with a smile. "It's not far, it's just a few hills away." But Gao Xiaolan is not far away, and a few mountains are more than ten miles away. In the end, Li Feng couldn't stand it anymore, an old man, more than a dozen eleven or twelve-year-old children walked for more than an hour on the mountain road with clothes on their backs. Li Feng jumped out of the car and thought about helping. But the old headmaster waved his hand. ..., "It's okay, it's okay, the children walk every day." "It turns out that Fangyuan Xiaoshuigou Primary School is the only primary school within a radius of thirty or forty miles. The people living in the mountains are too scattered. No matter how much they have the ability to build a school, many children set off at three or four o'clock in the morning and walk twenty or thirty miles to school. Not to mention how difficult the conditions of the mountain village primary school are, it is not easy to know how difficult it is for children in the mountains to know how difficult it is to go over the mountains and mountains.
Li Feng felt that he was still lucky, although the road out of the mountain when he was in school was not repaired, it was better than here. But they were sent in bullock carts, and they could stay at school and go home on Saturdays. In addition, although Li Feng's family conditions were not superior when he was a child, at least the problem of food and clothing was not big.
Li Feng looked at the children's faces flushed, but none of the children said they were tired, and Li Feng didn't know what to say. This person is in the mood to sit in a donkey cart, and finally everyone comes down. The goods can be put in the car and put them in the car, although Gao Xiaolan and Principal Miao talked about how embarrassed to let the benefactor walk, saying that nothing would work. Finally, when he was still seven or eight miles away from the village, Li Feng saw a touching scene, it turned out to be a woman in the village carrying a bamboo child, and she was stunned to let Li Feng and a few people go.
"Thank you, so let's do it, a few children are tired, let them sit." Li Feng looked at the baby, the bell, Meng Meng, these women are too enthusiastic, they can't sit down, and the three children sit down to make the family happy. At twelve o'clock, I finally arrived at Xiaoshuigou Village.
The village is much larger than Lijiagang, and there are at least two or three hundred households, which is a very large village in the mountains. The village was full of old people and children, watching the arrival of the donkey cart, most of these donkey carts were organized in the town, and only two or three families in the village had donkey carts. Many of the old people in the village were dressed a little strangely, and Li Feng couldn't tell what kind of ethnic costume it was. But it's definitely not Han costumes, Li Feng pulls the baby Mengmeng, and Xiaoqing pulls Mengmeng. A few people had really never seen this meeting, and at this time, Li Feng felt that he didn't know what to feel, but the eyes of these people had a big impact on Li Feng.
It is a kind of indifferent expectation that has been tortured by poverty, and how many years of struggle on the poverty line of a group of old people has left indelible traces. A group of children were a little afraid of the people who came, and timidly looked at Li Feng and the others through the big eyes of the black water. This time, the person in charge, Zhu Ming, seemed to have seen too much, and did not feel too much, directing everyone to carry the material. A group of children and elderly people came to help, but these clothes, grain and oil had to be counted, and finally decided to transport them to the primary school first. Li Feng arrived at the primary school, although he was already prepared, but he saw that a few of them were like cowsheds, and they were the only primary schools within a radius of dozens of miles. Li Xiaoman and Xiaoqing's eyes were red, and the three little girls of the baby's cute bell sucked their little noses. I thought that Li Kouzi Primary School was already very poor. But compared to here, it's heaven.
Gao Xiaolan introduced it on the side, because the mountains are not rich, no, it should be very poor, and most of the children learn to recognize the two words and go home to help the family make a living. There is only one teacher in the entire elementary school, the old principal, who has only finished elementary school, and is not a high-level intellectual. Even so, a handful of people in the village have finished elementary school.
Li Xiaoman and Xiaoqing both grew up in the city, although Li Xiaoman grew up in an orphanage, but he didn't suffer much for so many years, until he graduated from college, although he had a baby for a few years and lived a hard life, but compared with the people in the mountain village at this time. Li Xiaoman felt that he was not poor at all.
There are five classes in the whole elementary school, with the first and second grades attending together, the third and fourth grades attending together, and the fifth grade having only two classes a week. Even so, the old headmaster has not had a few days off at the end of the year. The most lacking thing in the mountains is not material, not schools, but teachers. But the salary here is very low, at most two or three hundred yuan a month, and no one wants to come. ..., Li Feng sighed when he heard it, yes, others also need to live, and it is impossible to selflessly donate everything he has here. It is not easy for a college student, whether it is a rural area or an ordinary family in the city, to provide for a college student. If you come here after graduation, how will the family live, and what will happen to get married and buy a house in the future? If you have the heart, you may not be powerless, this is also a social reality, why so many people are willing to stay in the big city, not to make some money, buy a house, and have a peaceful life in the future. The most ordinary, the most realistic dream is actually the most difficult dream to realize.
Taking root in a mountain village, this is easy to say, but a few people can do it, Li Feng knows that he can't do it. "Mr. Li, Ms. Li, this is the list of villagers in Xiaoshuigou Village, you can see if these substances are being sent out now." Zhu Ming's main task this time is to serve Li Xiaoman's family well, and they have donated so much money, so they have the right to see the money used in practice. Because the amount of Li Xiaoman's donations was too large, they were transferred from the bank account to the Hope Project account in batches, and if Li Xiaoman found any misuse and squandering, he had the right to terminate the transfer of the next sum of money. These are all done with the help of the He family, although Li Xiaoman is not very cold to the He family, but this thing is not bad, at least a little more protection.
"Okay, Director Zhu, it's okay, you're busy, I'll just take a look here." Li Xiaoman didn't have any thoughts, just looked at these children with an expectation in their eyes and felt that the money was worth donating. At least a few more children can get out of the mountains and out of this barren land, and everything they do is worth it.
The oil and grain were directly distributed to the village name of Xiaoshuigou, and as for the clothes, because the whole school was for children, the old principal needed to notify the children from each village to come and collect it, so it would not be possible for a while, too many children, too remote. Now that the holiday has already been over, the third, fourth and fifth grade children in Xiaoshuigou Village have been sent out today, and they will be notified about the afternoon. When the time comes, we will come back and distribute it, and it will be lunch time. The women set up a table of banquets early, but everyone didn't have much appetite at this time, Li Feng just took care of a few children to eat, and ate a little himself. (To be continued)
