Chapter 6 Back to School

Zhuxian No. 1 Middle School.

When Huzi saw Wu Xiaotian return to school, he was overjoyed to take the backpack on Huzi's shoulder and punched him in the chest: "Xiaotian, you're back." I'm depressed, how are you doing at home, what are you doing? Unexpectedly, you're back. It's just wonderful. ”

Wu Xiaotian smiled indifferently and didn't say anything.

Huzi helped Wu Xiaotian spread out the futon on the bed, and asked happily, "How is your father doing now?" Have you continued to drink? ”

Xiaotian put his backpack on the head of the bed and replied, "I don't drink it during the day, but I drink a little at night." After a pause, he said calmly, "However, when I went back this time, my father was actually cutting bamboo and scratching strips, saying that it was weaving bamboo sieves and shakpies to sell in the town." ”

"What a good thing! It shows that your dad is in good spirits. You can study with confidence, there is no endless road, there will always be a way. Huzi comforted.

After a while, Huzi said again: "Xiaotian, I really thought you didn't study anymore. When I came home this weekend, I told my dad about your situation, and my dad sighed and told me to persuade you again. I'm relieved that you're back now. ”

Huzi had already made Xiaotian's bed, and suddenly climbed to the top bunk to find something, and then one turned over and jumped down, hesitating and saying, "Xiaotian, this is for you." ”

"What's that?" Xiao Tianhu looked suspiciously at the envelope handed over by Huzi.

"Open it and take a look." Huzi said.

Xiao Tian opened it and saw that inside the envelope was a pile of brand-new renminbi. "What are you giving me money for?" Xiao Tian asked suspiciously.

"This is my New Year's money, for you as living expenses." Huzi said sincerely.

"My dad gave me living expenses. Take it back, lest you have to find all sorts of excuses to deceive him when your father asks you. Xiaotian put the money in an envelope and returned the envelope to Huzi.

"My dad knows about it. You must take this money. Otherwise, I will lend it to you, and you will pay it back to me when you have the money. Huzi knew that Xiaotian had strong self-esteem, so he said to lend him money.

Xiaotian thinks about it, Huzi sincerely helps himself, sincerely regards himself as a friend, and wants to help him get through the difficulties, if he continues to be coquettish, it will inevitably hurt Huzi's heart. Besides, with the living expenses this month, for most of the next half year, who knows if Dad can guarantee to give himself living expenses every month. I can't be too sorry for the friendship of a good friend, and when I have money in the future, I will double it back to him.

"Then I'll take it. I'll write you an IOU. Xiao Tian said and went to find a pen and paper.

Huzi saw that Xiaotian took the money, and he was extremely happy. He said that if he writes an IOU, he will write an IOU, and he will pay it back if he can pay it back in the future, and forget it if he can't pay it back.

Huzi took the IOU, folded it and put it in the book. The two teenagers walked side by side towards the classroom.

After Wu Sifu fed the chickens, ducks, and pigs, he concentrated on weaving his basket and bamboo sieve. He first cut the bamboo into a finger-wide block, and then took the upper layer of green and yellow layers with better flexibility.

He first used a wide scorn hoop to shape the basket, the shape of a peach heart. Then use a finger-wide yellow scorn to build a frame to form a "weft", and then use a blue silk like the thickness of ramen noodles to weave on the "weft" one by one to form a "warp".

After weaving a silk, he stuck the joint at the "weft", and the other silk was connected from here to form a seamless joint. If you don't look closely, you can't see the joint, it's perfect.

Wu Sifu shuttled between the bamboos with a pair of big hands, dexterously weaving. The morning passed quickly, and two washbasin-sized baskets were completed.

In the afternoon, he had the whimsical idea to change the shape of the basket to a circle. However, it is much more difficult to weave a round basket than a heart-shaped basket, and the green seam is the most difficult process.

It took an afternoon of tinkering to make up a circle. He felt a little discouraged.

The next day, he made two more bamboo sieves. When I made up the first one, I was relatively rusty, but when I got experience in the second one, it was much easier to make up.

Zhucun Village Office.

Tang Xiaohong is holding a working meeting on the filing and registration of poor households attended by members of the two committees of the village branch and the captains of each production team.

There is no special village office in Zhucun, so in order to carry out work, the former village classroom has to be cleaned up and used as a village office.

Tang Xiaohong sat on the podium in the classroom, in front of an old table with a stack of materials on the table.

Tang Xiaohong said loudly to the village cadres and team leaders: "Yesterday, I went to the Shuangjiang Town Government to attend a special meeting, and the town asked for the establishment of a file for poor rural households.

According to the spirit of the national, provincial, municipal, and county documents, where the per capita annual net income of the rural population is less than 2,736 yuan, it will be regarded as a poor household, and then registered.

I've got the information ready for the household survey here. When the captain of each team conducts a household survey, he must fill in the form one by one in strict accordance with the form.

Let me explain to you that the income in the table includes household production and operation income, transfer income, property income, and wage income. ”

Tang Xiaohong said above, but a captain below muttered in a low voice: "There are so many names, how can you figure it out, and you won't make people dizzy." ”

Tang Xiaohong heard the captain's whispered discussion, took a sip of water, and emphasized: "Everyone should pay special attention to the item of wage income, and the income from working outside should be counted as wage income;

Let me explain again that the income from the family's business, including the chickens, ducks, pigs, etc., that are fed must be counted as income; The money that children pay for the elderly is counted as transfer income; The old farmer's insurance, subsistence allowance, one-child fee, two-daughter fee, etc., are counted as property income.

Household production and operation expenditures, including the purchase of pesticides, fertilizers, seeds and agricultural tools. Income minus expenditure, divided by the registered population, is the annual per capita income. ”

The captains looked at the information in their hands with bitter faces, as if they wanted to figure out the content of the speech of Tang Xiaohong, the village secretary.

I only heard Tang Xiaohong say again: "This investigation and verification must be based on the principle of seeking truth from facts.

In addition, in this household survey, all households enjoying the national subsistence allowance policy should be investigated and verified, and those who do not meet the requirements should be cleared, and those who meet the requirements should be fully protected.

The party's policies are good, and no one will be left behind on the road to a well-off life. Everyone should implement the work carefully. ”

Captain Qiu said to Captain Li next to him: "Even if there are children who give money to their parents, I'm afraid no parents will admit to giving money." ”

"It's okay to add new subsistence households, but if you want to cancel people's subsistence allowances, you will definitely be scolded. Who wants to take out what they have in hand? Captain Li also whispered.

Third Uncle Wu pondered for a long time and said, "I have a question to ask." If the person who enjoys the subsistence allowance dies but his family is still poor, should the subsistence allowance be abolished? ”

When everyone heard it, they all knew that Uncle Wu was talking about Wu Sifu's family. Tang Xiaohong also knew what Captain Wu meant by asking this question.

"The people who enjoy the subsistence allowance are gone, and of course they have to be canceled. The family is poor, and the re-investigation does not meet the conditions for applying for the subsistence allowance; If you meet the conditions and apply again, you will not apply if you do not meet the conditions. Tang Xiaohong said concisely.

"Is there any support policy for poor households?" Captain Qiu asked.

"Do it in the spirit of the document. If there is no document stipulating it, it is not allowed to talk nonsense. Tang Xiaohong packed up her notebook and prepared to end the meeting.

The old village chief approached Tang Xiaohong and asked in a low voice, "Is Wu Sifu's subsistence allowance going to be cancelled?" If his family cancels the subsistence allowance, it will be really difficult. ”

Tang Xiaohong knew the situation of Wu Sifu's family, and he had been there several times. If his family's subsistence allowance is canceled, life will be really stretched. However, if it is not abolished, it will be difficult to do other mass work. Shen San's wife came to the village office a few times to make trouble, and she got a bowl of water.

"Wu Sifu is disabled, is it enough to apply for the subsistence allowance?" Tang Xiaohong asked.

"He is a third-degree disability and is not eligible to apply for subsistence allowance." The old village chief replied.

"This time, the poor households set up a file and listed his family as a poor household. If the state has a policy to help him, we will help him solve it at that time. Tang Xiaohong frowned.

"Far water can't save near fire!" The old village chief sighed.

"Poverty alleviation starts with aspiration! The subsistence allowance could not solve his family's practical difficulties. Tang Xiaohong said.

The old village chief didn't want to say anything more, and walked out of the village office with a stack of forms.

Tang Xiaohong stood in front of the village office, looking around, there was a sea of reckless bamboo in front of him. Yellow bamboo, hundred bamboo, nan bamboo, verdant and verdant, blue sea thousands of acres. As the saying goes, the mountains eat the mountains, but why are the villagers here still so poor?

In the past, villagers could still make money by weaving baskets, dustpans, bamboo chairs, etc., and they could also scoop clay paper and sell it for money; He had the strength to cut down the thick and straight bamboos and carry them to the side of the national highway to sell. Nowadays, every household uses plastic food baskets and plastic chairs, which are durable, who still uses bamboo products?

In recent years, forest fire prevention work has been strictly grasped, rural sacrifices are not allowed to burn paper money on open fires, and the paper scooping industry of the older generation is almost extinct.

Tang Xiaohong looked at the peaks in her eyes and fell into deep thought. He stared at the machine plow road winding in the mountains, and suddenly his eyes lit up, there is!
