The research team stayed in Xiaoquanzi Village for a day, and when it was close to evening, Director Zhang of the Municipal Poverty Alleviation Office looked at Qiao Xi, "Qiao Xi, borrow your village committee to hold a meeting, and the cadres from your village will also participate in it." ”

The content of their meeting was to build a road for Xiaoquanzi and how to build it.

During the meeting, Director Zhang would communicate with their city leaders on the phone.

Sun Honggang, secretary of the town party committee, also made a lot of phone calls to determine how much money the town could come up with to repair the road in Xiaoquanzi Village.

For a while, the neighborhood committee was full of phone calls.

Qiao Xi, Zhang Shouye and the other people in the village glanced at each other, and shook their heads with a smile, this mountain road will be built at least one million or more, and their village's capacity is limited, so they still don't participate.

The meeting finally decided that the money for road construction will be paid by the city and the town, whether it is the construction materials or the selection of the engineering party, which is the specific responsibility of the town.

By the time everyone had dismissed, it was already more than ten o'clock in the evening, and the van of the research team was bumped on the mountain road out of the village again.

After a week's time, all kinds of engineering vehicles entered the mountain road, if the mountain road can withstand the test of time, you can't do face engineering, you have to lay a good roadbed, you can't just make a fuss on the road, only the pursuit of good looks.

So with the rumbling sound, seven or eight excavators maneuvered, in order not to affect the tourism of Xiaoquanzi Village from other places, the mountain road is half and a half repaired, leaving half of the road in and out of the vehicle.

Xiaoquanzi Village is also busy, half of the village's labor is invested in the project, Qiao Xi runs on the mountain road every day, and there are several waves of tourists who come to Xiaoquanzi Village to travel, and Qiao Xi, who is busy, doesn't even have time to drink water.

She just accompanied the tourists to visit the mountain, returned to the village committee to report the progress of the project to the town, Zhang Shouye rode a bicycle, jumped down and wiped the sweat and said urgently: "Secretary Qiao, there are not enough people on the construction site, so many engineering vehicles have stopped running because of insufficient manpower, we still don't worry about money, hurry up and recruit people!" ”

Qiao Xi thought about it, originally wanted to let the laborers in the village have a place to make money, but it was even worse to delay the progress of the project, so she nodded and was about to agree, when she saw a few young people running from not far away, all holding travel bags in their hands.

The young man led by Qiao Xi has seen Cao Hu, the son of the old Cao family who was once selected as a difficult household, and later Qiao Xi found out that his family was hiding household appliances and so on, depending on the assessment of his family's difficult households. Cao Hu, who was the main laborer in the family, was also ashamed of Qiao Xi's reprimand, so he led his daughter-in-law to work at that time.

Cao Hu has experienced half a year of working outside, he is darker and stronger, and he didn't recognize Qiao Xi when he was far away, after all, Qiao Xi has changed too much, he recognized it carefully again, and shouted at Qiao Xi: "Secretary Qiao, I'm back." ”

His daughter-in-law also ran over with him, standing in front of Qiao Xi and smiling stupidly, "I also came back with Huzi." ”

Although they are the same age as Qiao Xi, they have all learned about the changes in Xiaoquanzi Village from their families during this time, as well as Qiao Xi's contributions to the village, and they have too much gratitude to her.

Qiao Xi smiled and said faintly with excitement: "Great, the village is short of manpower now, and it's just the right time for you to come back." ”

Cao Hu scratched his head, looking embarrassed, "Secretary Qiao, I'm just here to help build the road." Do you remember what you said to me when I went out to work? ”

Qiao Xi raised her head suspiciously.

Cao Hu's face gradually became serious, "You said that one day the village will develop, and I hope that when that day comes, I can come back to build my own village." ”

When he said this, he stood up straight inexplicably, "Now that I'm back, I'll listen to you and build my hometown well." ”

Seven or eight young people came running from behind, panting and shouting, "Secretary Qiao, we're all back." ”

Many of these people Qiao Xi didn't know, because they worked outside all the year round, and after Cao Hu's introduction, it turned out that they were all working at a construction site in the city, and when they heard that the village needed them, they came back collectively.

Although some people have not seen Qiao Xi either, they have heard the family mention the first secretary of the village, and their own village has also undergone earth-shaking changes because of Qiao Xi, and now is the time when the village needs them, they have no choice but to shirk it.

In the next few days, a large number of people who went to work in the city returned to their hometowns and participated in the construction of the village.

Reunions are always joyful, and for a while the village is immersed in an atmosphere of joy, plus it is for their own village, everyone is riveted to the end.

The forty-mile mountain road took two months to build, and when the first snow came, the project was completed, and a wide oil road led to Xiaoquanzi Village.

There is an endless stream of tourists who come to Xiaoquanzi Village, see the clear sky, see the thousands of trees and pear blossoms, and there are more people who come to visit the children of Xiaoquanzi Village. Under the leadership of the teacher, the children in the city came to the village school in batches, and they played with the village children and established a pen pal relationship.

At the end of the year in a blink of an eye, a busy year has passed, and every household has begun to buy New Year's goods, Qiao Guodong and Luo Haifeng came out of the vegetable market, carrying large bags and small bags in their hands, Qiao Guodong glared at Luo Haifeng next to him with some complaints, "They are all good daughters you raised, and the New Year will be celebrated in a few days, but she is relying on other people's villages, and she really has to be a village official and become addicted?" Don't even want a home? ”

Luo Haifeng shook his head and smiled, "It seems that my daughter was only raised by me alone, you don't have a share?" Didn't Xixi say that the village has been busy recently, didn't their village just launch a parent-child activity? Call on parents in the city to bring their children to the countryside for the New Year and experience the atmosphere of the countryside for the New Year. ”

Qiao Guodong snorted heavily, "His idea is getting more and more correct, he can do whatever he wants, and he doesn't discuss it with our old couple at all." Other people's families celebrate the New Year, so don't let our family celebrate this year? ”

"Why do you always find fault with Xixi, do you think she will be easy? When you are in the unit, you often don't go home for more than a week for a certain project, and you will go home and fall asleep, and she hasn't learned from you. Luo Haifeng slapped him lightly, and longing gradually appeared in his eyes, "The New Year in the countryside seems to be really exciting, I remember when I was still at my mother's house, on the day of the New Year, I had to go out to visit the New Year door before dawn in the morning." Hey, you can't sleep even if you want to, there are fireworks everywhere, and there are melons, fruits, pears and peaches on the tables of every house......"

Surprisingly, when Luo Haifeng told it, Qiao Guodong didn't refute it, and a trace of nostalgia appeared in his eyes.

Although the buildings in the city are clean and comfortable, they increase the distance between people, and the Chinese New Year becomes more and more tasteless.

Carry out parent-child activities, spend the New Year in the countryside, and look for the flavor of the New Year, this activity launched by Qiao Xi seems to be really good!

The old couple took the New Year's goods they bought back home, Luo Haifeng opened the carton and put them in the basket one by one, and when she inadvertently looked at the carton, she called out as if she had found a new world.

Qiao Guodong threw down the newspaper in his hand, stepped on his slippers, and hurried into the kitchen, "What's wrong?" ”

Luo Haifeng pointed to the cardboard box and shouted excitedly: "It's Xixi...... It's the eggs of Xixi's village. ”

Qiao Guodong took the egg box in his hand, and the front color printed a nest of native eggs in the mountains, below is a row of eye-catching red letters, Xiaoquanzi Village farmer's native eggs, in addition, there is a small monkey riding a bicycle in the upper right corner of the carton, and a long ribbon is pulled behind the car, which reads: Welcome to Xiaoquanzi Ecological Tourism Village!

"Old Qiao, it's really the village where our Xixi is located!" Luo Haifeng shouted happily, tears in her eyes inexplicably.

"Look at what pleases you, besides, what's so pleasing about that?" Qiao Guodong looked at the cardboard box several times, and walked out of the kitchen with his hands behind his back, but immediately turned around and said hurriedly: "By the way, don't throw away this cardboard box, you fold it for me and keep it." ”

This girl is doing a good job, she is the daughter of my old Qiao family.

Dad, be proud of you!
