Chapter 55: The human heart is made of flesh

Qiao Xi walked down one by one, distributed all the money, and when he returned home, it was almost midnight, his hungry chest was pressed against his back, he ordered himself a bowl of noodles, and after eating, he lay down and fell asleep.

The next morning it was drizzling, and the village of Xiaoquanzi was covered in a thin veil, and everything became hazy and dreamy.

Qiao Xi's alarm clock rang, and she had been away from the village for several days, going out to see some dilapidated houses under repair.

She walked with an umbrella to the dilapidated houses under repair, because it was early in the morning, and it was raining, and no one was working. The progress of several dilapidated houses is similar, the frame is covered, and the aluminum alloy glass windows and doors are also installed, and they have all reached the final step of plastering cement as a whole.

The 22 dilapidated houses in the village need to be renovated in batches, and they will be almost completed in about two months.

Qiao Xi walked around the village, the river in the village was crystal clear, quietly flowing around several mountains, and when she looked ahead, she subconsciously stopped.

A white light truck stopped at the foot of the mountain, and several people stepped out of the car, looking at the trees everywhere on the mountain and pointing.

"What are you doing there?" These people were not from the village, and Qiao Xi walked over vigilantly.

Among the several people, there was a bearded man, and he laughed and said, "Girl, you got up quite early, we came to your village to buy trees, but this time we brought a big deal, and we plan to buy all the trees on your mountain in one go." ”

Qiao Xi's expression was stunned, and he immediately interrupted: "I'm sorry, the trees in our village are not sold, and they are not allowed to be cut down indiscriminately." ”

The bearded man was a little unhappy, "We have bought trees in your village several times, and your village chief didn't give us an official tone, but a girl came to say something about indiscriminate felling?" ”

Most of the trees on the mountain have been cut down over the years, and Qiao Xi is trying to figure out how to restore the green of the mountain, how can he sell the trees for that little money.

"Old Ma, what do you have with a girl, this batch of timber is waiting on it, you hurry up and contact their village committee, I will drive people up the mountain first." One by one, the chubby, bald men wiped the rain from their faces and shouted impatiently.

Qiao Xi's voice suddenly became cold, "You don't have to go to the village committee, I am the village secretary of the village, and I can represent Xiaoquanzi Village." ”

The bearded man named Lao Ma glanced at Qiao Xi a few times, and said with a smile: "You are the Secretary Qiao?" I heard that you are very unpopular in the village, huh? You don't want to think about it, if you don't let the trees be sold, you are preventing the people in the village from getting rich, why don't people hate you? ”

Qiao Xi said coldly: "This is our Xiaoquanzi's business, and our village will get better and better in the future, so I won't bother you to worry about this." ”

Lao Ma laughed sarcastically, holding his arms, "What a fart, what kind of poverty are you in Xiaoquanzi Village, I advise you to hurry up and accept your fate!" Sell the tree to us, maybe it can save you from the village. ”

Qiao Xi's expression became extremely serious, he narrowed his eyes, and said word by word: "Xiaoquanzi Village will never accept fate, Xiaoquanzi Village's fate is not fate!" After all, this place will become a piece of green water and green mountains, and it will also create mountains of gold and silver for us! ”

The chubby, bald man had already gotten into the car, started the car and drove up the hill. Qiao Xi rushed over, blocked in front of the car, and scolded angrily: "Return the car to me immediately, I repeat, not a single tree in our village is for sale." ”

The bald man snorted heavily, tapped the accelerator, and slowly approached Qiao Xi with his horn.

"You give me back!" Qiao Xi was anxious and reached out to push the head of the cart.

The bald man laughed in the car, honking the horn again and again, trying to shake Qiao Xi away.

Seeing that Qiao Xi still refused to dodge, he was a little angry and drove forward to start the car, Qiao Xi propped his hands on the front of the car, and shouted impatiently: "You go back, the trees in our village are not for sale!" ”

"I can't help myself! It depends on your strength, or the strength of the car! The bald man let out a loud laugh in the car.

"Secretary Qiao." With an exclamation, a voice hurried over, and then also supported the front of the car slowly moving forward with both hands.

Qiao Xi turned his head to see that it was Xiaobao's father, wearing a raincoat and shouting in the drizzle.

"Little Daddy, why are you here?" Qiao Xi was stunned.

"Secretary Qiao, not only me, but many others."

As soon as Xiaobao's father finished speaking, he saw figures running from all directions, some people directly threw away the umbrellas in their hands, and they all went to the surroundings of the light truck, pushing down the mountain in unison.

Without any reason to ask, these people spontaneously organized, just because their Secretary Qiao was doing this.

The bald man in the light truck was shocked by the scene in front of him, and his car was surrounded by crowds, all pushing his car backwards.

He quickly stopped the car, only to feel the car moving backwards quickly, he opened the door and jumped out.

With a bang, the car was pushed down the hillside by everyone, and the car overturned on the ground.

"Why did you overturn my car?" The bald man rushed over with a snort, rolled up his sleeves, and looked like he was going to fight.

Qiao Xi walked in front of everyone and said coldly: "How many times have I told you, the trees in our village are not for sale, you have to drive up, and now everything is your own fault, I haven't called the police to arrest you!" ”

When the villagers heard what was going on, they were filled with indignation, and pointed at the bald man, "Yes, what Secretary Qiao said is right, the trees in our village are not for sale, you should leave quickly, otherwise we will call the police to arrest you." ”

The bald man and Lao Ma and the others looked at their angry faces in disbelief, which seemed to be different from what they heard, this village secretary surnamed Qiao was very prestigious in the village!

The car overturned at the foot of the mountain, and the old horse and a few people couldn't help it up, so they had to beg the villagers.

Xiaobao's father walked to Secretary Qiao's side, "Secretary Qiao, can we help him?" ”

Qiao Xi's eyes were a little complicated, and he nodded slowly.

As if they had been ordered, everyone present went down the mountain together to help lift the car.

Zhang Shouye came over on a bicycle, and after asking the reason, he scolded Lao Ma: "Lao Ma, don't come to our village in the future, and the trees in our village will not be sold to anyone again." ”

Lao Ma said anxiously: "Old village chief, this time we are really in a hurry, you sell us another batch of trees, and I can raise the price for you again." ”

Zhang Shouye scolded, "Get out!" In the past, we didn't understand, but you bought all the trees, and you were harming our village. If you don't leave, be careful that we beat you bitches. ”

When the old horse saw this posture, he immediately panicked, and hurriedly got into the car with the others, and escaped from Xiaoquanzi Village.

Qiao Xi walked up to everyone, with a smile in his eyes, "Thank you, you are the one who has kept this place and left hope for the village." ”

"Secretary Qiao, we want to thank you." A man wiped the rain from his face and shouted sincerely.

Qiao Xi was inexplicably moved, her heart was warm, she seemed to see the future of Xiaoquanzi Village, and an invisible force condensed.

Zhang Shouye came over and nodded, "Secretary Qiao, you go back with me first." ”

Qiao Xi followed him out suspiciously, until she came to the door of her house.

She was stunned by the scene in front of her, the door was full of villagers, some wearing raincoats, some with umbrellas, and at this moment, they all looked at her.

"Old village chief, why are the big guys here?" Qiao Xi wondered.

Zhang Shouye took a sip of the pot and said with a meaningful smile: "The big guys are all waiting here to pay you back." ”

Everyone shouted one after another, took it into their pockets, and took out all the money from last night, "Secretary Qiao, the chicken money you paid us last night, we can't ask for it, we have to pay it back to you." ”

Qiao Xi went to pay back the dead chicken money last night, and when Zhang Shouye heard that the family went to work, he thought of the practical things Qiao Xi did for the village, and they all began to blame themselves.

Although it rained lightly in the morning, everyone still arrived at Qiao Xi's door, but Qiao Xi went out first, and some people went around looking for Qiao Xi and saw the scene on the mountain.

People's hearts are flesh and blood, and Qiao Xi has done a lot more than them, who were born and raised in Xiaoquanzi Village.
