Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
At the end of summer, golden waves of wheat fill the fields.
The autumn harvest season is approaching, and the farmers working in the fields are sweating, looking at the crops that are gradually ripening and fruitful, and their hearts are full of joy and desire for a good harvest.
This year is the most energetic year for the villagers of Hongshan, although because of the land contract in the mountainous area, those profiteers have been slaughtered, so that most of the villagers have a large amount of savings in their families.
But their roots are still in this land.
Now, after the appearance of Hongshan Village has changed, even those lands have also undergone qualitative changes.
Originally, the villagers planted some cash crops, but because the soil quality of the surrounding area was worse than that of other villages, the annual harvest was not as good as that of other villages, and there were even losses, and they worked in vain for a year.
In particular, Qingyuan rice, although it is a variety with high nutritional value, very popular and good price, since Li Xiangnan returned to his hometown and introduced this new rice to Hongshan Village to start planting, there have been planting failures and losses year after year.
Originally, the villagers were expecting that Li Xiangnan knew a lot and had a wide range of knowledge, and that he should be able to have a good harvest by planting Qingyuan rice with him.
But no one expected that the shadow of continuous planting failure and yield reduction hung over the heads of the villagers, making everyone doubt whether this kind of rice was suitable for cultivation in Hongshan Village, and also questioned Li Xiangnan's relevant knowledge in agriculture.
Although later, there were some things in a row, Li Xiangnan did a lot for the village. made everyone have a very high evaluation of Li Xiangnan's behavior and affairs, and also reversed some of the bad impressions he brought to the villagers. But for this matter of planting Qingyuan rice, the villagers are still not very optimistic about him.
So this year, in addition to all the land owned by Li Xiangnan's family was stubbornly planted with Qingyuan rice again, there are only a few families who planted a few acres to support him in order to take care of Li Xiangnan's face, but in general, compared with last year's large-scale planting, this year is less pitiful.
However. This year is different from previous years.
The families who planted Qingyuan rice are all happy these days. I am also very motivated to work, and my expression of joy is always on my face.
Obviously, although there are no signs in the early and middle stages of this year's Qingyuan rice, in the middle and late stages, when the rice seedlings set head, the rapid growth has broken most people's eyeballs.
Especially those who have grown crops all their lives. They just had to take a look at the paddy field to know what this year's harvest would look like.
Obviously, this year's Qingyuan rice planting in Hongshan Village will be a great success.
It is precisely because of this that the families who chose to support Li Xiangnan and planted Qingyuan were very happy, not the joy that the crops were about to be successful and abundant. Rather, we rejoice in their wise choice.
And most of the villagers who originally wanted to plant, but did not plant for various reasons, now look at the Qingyuan rice that is growing happily and is about to be harvested and successful. But his bowels were all repentant.
Whenever I see people like Hua Guolin and others happily humming songs every day, waiting for the Qingyuan rice to ripen and prepare for harvest. When he saw people, he began to ridicule how wise his choice was, and at the same time satirized the scene when some people were ostensibly supportive, but duplicity, and those people were ashamed and embarrassed.
Sun Dezhu, as the village party secretary, has always been very discerning, and he has always been optimistic about Li Xiangnan, so this year his family has also planted Qingyuan rice in most of the fields.
These days, Qingyuan rice is ripe and about to meet the harvest time, Sun Dezhu considered that there are not many plants in the village this year, so he went to each family to discuss it roughly, finalized the harvest plan, and then came to Li Xiangnan's house.
Entering the courtyard, Sun Dezhu saw Li Yanguo moving his body in the shade of the big tree in the courtyard, and gradually adapting to normal walking, which was very smooth.
After a few days of recuperation, Li Yanguo's leg injury is in very good condition, and now he can walk on the ground, exactly like a normal person, and he is no longer limping as before.
Especially the face of Li Yanguo's restoration, Sun Dezhu couldn't help but sigh in his heart every time he came to visit, because he was used to seeing the previous face with hideous scars, he almost forgot what he looked like when he was young.
And now, after Li Yanguo's appearance has recovered, his sword eyebrows and eagle eyes look resolute and upright, heroic and extraordinary, as if he has suddenly become much younger, if he doesn't see it every day, almost people will not recognize him himself.
With such feelings in his heart, Sun Dezhu entered the courtyard and said, "Yanguo, haven't you come back to the south yet?" ā
Li Yanguo's physique is very strong, and he has cultivated the exercises, plus the medicinal effect of the True Spirit Chalcedony Pill is extremely powerful, so he has recovered from his injuries very quickly recently, and he is already able to walk on the ground.
Although I can't walk completely at a brisk pace, basic walking doesn't have much of an impact.
He walked under the tree, pulled a rattan chair for Sun Dezhu to sit down, and after helping him pour a cup of cool herbal tea made by Mu Yue to relieve the heat, he said: "Before harvesting Qingyuan rice, he should come back, after all, this is the knot he has been buried in his heart, and he will naturally untie it himself!" ā
Sun Dezhu nodded slightly, and said: "Yes, the many failures he has experienced in the past have indeed brought him a lot of blows, and it has also made the villagers gossip a lot behind their backs, and now he is finally about to succeed, and it can indeed lift his knot!" ā
Li Yanguo said: "Old branch secretary, are you here today, do you have something to discuss?" ā
Sun Dezhu took out the old cigarette stick, Li Yanguo helped him light it, Sun Dezhu took a sip, and then said: "The main reason is that there are relatively few Qingyuan rice seeds in the village this year, but they have been successful, and the yield in other places is still reduced due to drought, so the price of Qingyuan rice this year has risen to a high price before the harvest, and I came this time with the work task assigned by the county!" ā
Li Yanguo had already roughly guessed what was going on, so he said: "Is it that the county wants to advertise when they see that we have successfully planted this year, and use Hongshan Village as a demonstration site for publicity, and at the same time buy a batch of Qingyuan rice from our village for other purposes, and want to cite it as a political achievement?" ā
Sun Dezhu nodded and said, "You're right, that's what the county meant, but because the matter involves Xiang Nan, the county magistrate still asked me to ask Xiang Nan's opinion first!" ā
Li Yanguo felt strange when he heard this, and said: "Since the county plans to do this, Xiang Nan has no political status, why do you still have to ask Xiang Nan's opinion on this matter?" ā
Sun Dezhu suddenly smiled, took two puffs of cigarette stick, and said: "You may not know anything about this matter Yanguo, when he went south to exorcise ghosts and subdue demons, Shi Fu saved people, and helped some high-level officials in the county and city a lot, plus the mountain contracting project in our Hongshan Village has also brought them a lot of benefits, so those officials have always respected Xiangnan's identity as a little heavenly master, and it is not strange to ask him for his opinion!" ā
After Li Yanguo heard this, he didn't think so.
He felt that the things that his nephew had done before would not be taken too seriously by those leading cadres, after all, from an official point of view, those were all superstitious activities and could not be put on the stage, and those people would express such an attitude, and what should be valued by the nephew's background in other aspects.
didn't say anything more on this issue, Li Yanguo said: "Old branch secretary, for the result, I and Xiangnan should be almost the same, and I won't pay too much attention to it, but I have a word to remind you, now in the future, the Qingyuan rice planted in Hongshan Village may be very different from other places, I will build yƬ You take some rice first, take it to an authoritative organization for identification and testing, with this written report, then the interests of Hongshan villagers will not be affected in the future!" ā
Sun Dezhu is also an understanding person, and he quickly understood, and after nodding, he did not mention this topic again.
He turned his head and saw Mu Yue carrying a teapot out to store water and watering the flowers next to him, so he asked with a smile: "Yanguo, what are you going to do with Miss Mu's marriage, Miss Mu's popularity among the women in the village is getting better and better, and the women in the village are in a hurry, rushing to be a matchmaker for Miss Mu!" ā
Li Yanguo said: "There are no elders in our Li family, I can decide for myself, but Mu Yue's family still has parents and grandfather alive, and I can't be too hasty in this matter, otherwise it will be difficult to say if it is not right!" ā
"That's just as well!"
Sun Dezhu nodded, and was about to talk about this topic, but at this time, there was a sound of cars ringing outside the yard, and two big men in suits and sunglasses, who looked like underworlds, walked into the courtyard first, and Sun Dezhu's eyes couldn't help shrinking, and he didn't know what was going on.
Li Yanguo didn't pay too much attention to these two people, since these two people came in, he saw through the strength of the other party at a glance, he saw Sun Dezhu's nervous expression, so he comforted: "Old branch secretary, these two are bodyguards, it is estimated that they are here to find Xiangnan, don't be nervous!" ā
Mu Yue was watering the flowers with a kettle, and when she saw these two men in suits and glasses entering the yard, she put down the kettle and greeted her.
Immediately, I saw a woman with a beautiful figure and a beautiful appearance entered the courtyard, especially the voice of the beautiful and delicate woman, as if it could hook people's souls, so that Sun Dezhu couldn't help but shudder, and didn't dare to look at this extremely beautiful and charming woman, for fear that if he couldn't control the gaffe, the old face would be lost.
So Sun Dezhu retreated, and said: "Yanguo, since you have a guest at home, then I'll leave first!" With that, Sun Dezhu quickly left the courtyard.
The woman who came was none other than Nan Wuyao.
After Mu Yue welcomed her into the courtyard, Nan Wuyao looked at the courtyard and couldn't help but praise: "This courtyard is very beautiful, very leisurely and leisurely farm life, it seems that Mu Yue, you should be very comfortable here!" ā
It was the first time Li Yanguo had seen Nan Wuyao, not to mention this woman's appearance, as well as that bewitching temperament, especially the restrained strength, which made Li Yanguo a little jealous, and said, "Muyue, who is this?" ā
