Mr. He Yichen came back from the hill overlooking the river bend, and when we were about to walk to the town, we unexpectedly met the mayor of the town.

Mr. Mayor is 38 years old, tall and strong, with a good higher education.

He is a native of the Winter Lake area, where he has lived for farming, fishing and hunting. He went to the capital to study when he was young, and did not stay in the big city after graduation, but voluntarily returned to the town and became an ordinary grassroots civil servant.

Because of his hard work and good relations with the locals, he was soon promoted to mayor of the town.

Later, the appointment system was changed to an electoral system. Because of his popularity, he was undoubtedly elected in every election with a high number of votes.

In the minds of the locals, he is the rightful mayor of Winter Lake Town. None of them could have imagined anyone else in this position better suited than the current mayor.

It is really not easy for a local official to be able to completely blend with the entire place and penetrate into the hearts of the people, and it can be said that it is an outstanding achievement.

We didn't have much to do with the mayor, but we all respected him.

Watching us from afar, the mayor greeted us loudly with a spring breeze. His hearty voice, as bright and warm as the autumn sun, has the power to penetrate people's hearts.

The mayor said, "Isn't that Mr. Liang and Miss Vera?" ”

He said, "Oh, what a blessing to have it, did you go out sketching so early?" ”

Mr. Yichen said, "Yes. There is an old Chinese saying that the early bird gets the worm. Didn't you also get up early and start working, Mr. Mayor? ”

Mayor Mare's laughter snapped. He said, "yes, yes, we are all early birds to feed. You are looking for invincible beauty as food for your spirit, and I am looking for all kinds of sesame chores in the town as a tonic for exercising yourself. ”

Mayor and Mr. Yichen shook hands, bowed his head and kissed the back of my hand.

"I've heard you're going to be out of vacation soon," he said. As the mayor of a town, I haven't even treated you well, thank you for your love of the town. I hope that in the future, you will help us promote the town, so that more people can know about the town and come here for vacation. ”

He said, "Well, let's sit down and have a drink, I'll have a treat." ”

In the face of such hospitality, we really couldn't refuse, so we followed the mayor to the town bar, the mayor ordered a martini for Mr. Yichen, and ordered me a glass of soda lemon fruit soaking water, and the three of us sat at a small table at the door of the bar, drinking and chatting.

Townsfolk were constantly passing by and greeting us warmly.

"Tourists come and go, but these are the people who live here all the time," the mayor said. Tourists are the water of the Ner, and we are the riverbed of the Ner. ”

The mayor took a sip of the vodka in his cup and said with emotion: "We people, the roots are buried deep in this land, even if we grow into towering trees, we still can't do without this homeland." ”

The mayor asked us where we went in the morning to get a view.

Mr. Yichen said, "We went to the hill on the other side of the river.

The mayor immediately nodded his head and said that it was indeed a very good viewing spot.

"When I was a kid, I used to go there by myself and play there and lie quietly on the hills," he said. However, I'm not going to see the scenery, I'm going to listen to a concert in nature. Listen to the singing of the Nell River to the accompaniment of the wind. ”

The mayor picked up a pencil on the table and wrote the words "Song of the River" in Russian on the wine list he ordered.

Pointing to the words, he said, "The song of the river is the melody of the river playing on the rocks, the roots of the trees, and the rapids." You are all people who work in literature and art, and you must know very well that every river is the greatest singer in the world. Throughout its life, each river sang its own song day and night. This song of the river will continue for a long time until it is interrupted and destroyed by the discordant behavior of our human beings. Fortunately, the Niere River is still singing melodiously in our land to this day, and its concert has not been completely interrupted by our roughness and recklessness. ”

"A lot of the tourists who come here come by in a hurry, they climb the hill just to take a few pictures and show off to their friends, to prove that they are the rich and leisurely class to come to this kind of place for a vacation, and that's it," said the mayor. They can't hear the singing of the Ner. ”

"When I was a child," he said, "my grandfather told me that you need to live here for a long time and know the language of the mountains and rivers to hear a few notes in that music. ”

Mr. Yichen nodded frequently, agreeing with Mr. Mayor's statement.

He said, "Your grandfather was really a wise old man. Mr. Mayor, you too, have a clear and transparent heart. ”

Mr. Mayor said, "You must have heard the song of the Niere. It was a powerful, rhythmic harmony. Its scores are engraved in the mountains, the notes are hidden in the cycle of life and death of animals and plants, and its rhythm lasts for a few moments and a century long. ”

"When I was studying in a big city, I always wanted to record a record so that more people in the city who were busy and troubled could hear the magnificent singing of these rivers in our land," he said. ”

I couldn't help but ask, "Did you do it?" ”

Mr. Mayor laughed and said, "No. Later, I slowly understood that for those who are full of dust in their hearts, they will always be deaf to this kind of music. Even if they were recorded, they would not be able to awaken their listening to nature. They can only hear the noise of their own hearts forever. ”

He lowered his voice and whispered to me, "Look at these people around us who get up early in the morning and drink big glasses. I don't know who can awaken that sharp soul within them. ”

As a small official at the grassroots level, it really makes us deeply admire to have such a poet's understanding and poet's heart.

The mayor is a remarkable man with both administrative ability and inner education, no wonder he is so popular in the town.

It was a real pleasure to talk to him and it was very rewarding.

The mayor later became famous on the Internet, and countless tourists posted photos of him in his prime and tall and mighty on his social media, and recorded his erudition and noble taste in talking with tourists.

More and more tourists are making meeting the mayor a must-do on their vacation. When meeting Mr. Mayor Mayor, more and more tourists will ask for his autograph and ask to take a photo with him.

Mr. Mayor became an integral part of the town's brand.

After he became internationally famous, it was impossible for him to stay in the town any longer.

Later, when I went to the town on my own, Mr. Mayor had been persuaded by his superiors to leave the town and be elected deputy mayor of the nearby big city in charge of agriculture, forestry and tourism.

Later, I heard that he had become a senator and had gone to the capital to show his talents and charms on a larger scale.

But he has also maintained the title of honorary mayor of Winter Lake Town.

The townsfolk never forgot him, and still treat him as one of the townspeople. When they talk about him, they still affectionately call him by his nickname, "our mayor".
