Chapter 385: The People Who Walked Out of the Village
"Then let me ask you, are you at ease?" I put down my glass and asked Lin Guoqing.
Lin Guoqing sighed and nodded: "Peace of mind!" I'm more at ease than anyone else, and when I become an official, climbing up is no longer for myself to compete for fame and fortune, but to let more people live a better life. If I don't blow it, I don't expect to be an official and get rich at all. ”
I grinned and sang a classic drama: "If you don't make decisions for the people, you might as well go home and sell sweet potatoes." ”
Lin Guoqing raised the wine and drank it with a snort.
Leisurely.
……
This night, I slept in the guest room of Lin Guoqing's house. I drank half of my stomach and was dizzy when I lay in bed. Lin Guoqing didn't get much better, and vaguely remembered that after Wen Xiaoxiao came back, she asked her two daughters to go to bed, and she cleaned up the mess on the table by herself. After cleaning up, I went to mop the floor and wash the dishes, and when I was done, it was already twelve o'clock in the evening.
She went to see how her two daughters were sleeping and tucked the quilt for Yaochi.
Back in the kitchen, I made two bowls of decanting tea. Bring a bowl to Lin Guoqing, pick Lin Guoqing up, and let Lin Guoqing drink the sobering tea. He brought me another bowl and put it at the head of the bed, so that I could drink it when I woke up. The next morning, I woke up dizzy and drank the decanting tea at the bedside. I felt a lot more comfortable, after eating the breakfast prepared by Wen Xiaoxiao. Lin Guoqing prepared two Changfeng cheetahs, I took one with him and his secretary, and the one in the back for Lan Huixin's sister and brother to sit.
The two cars roared towards Beiwangzhuang in the mountain col.
I haven't come back for more than half a year, and the entire Beiwangzhuang is still surrounded by towns and villages as if they have changed. What was originally a narrow parking road has been transformed into a wide concrete road, which can accommodate two large trucks at the same time to drive side by side. And the roads are not as empty as they used to be, and you can't see a car for hours. Along the way, after a while, you will see a truck, or a pickup truck with a price of about 100,000 yuan.
Lin Guoqing sat in the car and talked to me: "I know that you Beiwangzhuang married a rich daughter-in-law, and you want to build a modern villa and tourist area in Beiwangzhuang. At this moment, the surrounding economy was all alive at once. It's not me who blows, but now I can have a piece of arable land in Beiwangzhuang, which is more difficult than climbing to the sky. As for your family's previous dilapidated house, the value is now similar to that of commercial housing in the city. In this way, the supply is still in short supply, and no one wants to sell. ”
I smiled but said nothing, looking at my hometown on both sides of the road, and feeling a little embarrassed in my heart.
All this is the result of Xia Wanyu, she invested a lot of money here at the beginning, just to give me a long face and tell others that she is the daughter-in-law of my Hao family. But now, all this has been completed, but Xia Wanyu can't come back. Lin Guoqing threw me a cigarette, took out another one and lit it himself, and said, "When something like that happens, my brothers are very sad." Don't take it to heart, as long as people are alive, they are better than anything else. ”
I rubbed my eyes and said, "If you think too much, you're getting sand in your eyes." ”
Lin Guoqing smiled but said nothing.
……
When the cheetah was about to arrive in the village, I saw from a distance that a flat land had been leveled out on the original hillside of the village, on which dozens of delicate white buildings were built. At the head of the village, there were villagers dressed in new clothes. My parents stood at the forefront of the crowd, and my father's mottled old face was full of wrinkles, and he looked even older when he smiled.
My parents still don't know the news of Xia Wanyu's amnesia, and I didn't tell my parents when I came back this time, and I was the only one who came back.
I straightened my clothes and sat down.
The cheetah stopped in front of the crowd, and Lin Guoqing walked down first. The village chief led the villagers to take the lead in applauding, and I hesitated and pushed the car door and walked down. Immediately surrounded by a group of villagers, my parents also came up anxiously, after my parents saw me, they were not surprised, but glanced into the car twice, and asked me, "Where is Wanyu?" ”
I was a little embarrassed and said, "She didn't come back this time, and she was a little busy at work." ”
The village chief behind him took the lead in applauding and said, "As long as I come back." ”
My parents were obviously stunned, I had lived with them for 20 years, and I couldn't escape their eyes with this little care. The village chief took the lead and took Lin Guoqing and me to visit the villa that will be delivered today. The general manager of the contractor company explained the configuration of the villa and the various construction plans of the villa, and the villagers have been following us, and the atmosphere is very warm.
Many farmers took out their own firecrackers prepared at home, and we walked all the way, and the crumbs of the firecrackers flew all the way. When we walked to the door of the villa complex, we looked back and saw that the village was full of red, and we didn't know which family we thought was marrying a daughter-in-law. After visiting the villas, the village chief told me that a total of 34 villas were built this time. Hearing this, I frowned and asked, "Aren't there a total of thirty-five families in the village?" ”
As soon as these words came out, the people around them all lowered their heads at the same time and remained silent.
The village chief also glanced at my parents with some embarrassment, and I was stunned, so I turned my head and rushed to my parents. My mother glanced at my father, and my father said, "Our house is good, one more house will cost millions more, and my parents want to save you and Wanyu some money, so they don't want it." ”
Hearing this, I was almost angry.
Xia Wanyu went to such great lengths to do thankless things, wasn't it just to make my parents' lives better? As a result, now the villa is built, but it is not my parents' share. I was about to go crazy, but my mother hurriedly said to me: "Hao Ren, my mother knows that you are filial, and she also knows that you are benevolent and righteous, and she is willing to do good things for the villagers." But my parents' house is really good, warm in winter and cool in summer. Such a big villa, there are only two people in it? Mom and Dad really can't afford it, but our nest is warm and popular. ”
Listening to my mother's words, my heart was very blocked.
My parents worked hard to raise me, but in the end, I made them empty nesters.
With tears in her eyes, my mother said to me, "Go, go cut the ribbon." ”
"Huh!" I said yes, turned around and walked over to the red ribbon at the door of the villa. Pick up the scissors from the tray of the hostess next to you and cut the ribbon. Suddenly, there were many salutes and salutes. In the midst of the jubilation, I saw that my parents and their faces were full of tears. At the request of the village chief, I personally handed over the keys to the thirty-four villas to the head of each household in the village, and when the whole ceremony was completed, the whole village was filled with joy.
The surrounding hills are full of people from neighboring villages, and there are also reporters from the city who are walking the streets and alleys with microphones to ask questions. My parents, on the other hand, came home early. Lin Guoqing accompanied him to look at the villas, he sighed and said to me: "A total of nearly 70 million has been spent here, and with the surrounding facilities and paving, it has already been hundreds of millions." Xia Wanyu spent so much money, but she really couldn't get a dime in return. She has done so much, for whom, you should know better than me. My ascension this time can be regarded as your light. ”
I smiled wryly, and Lin Guoqing gave me a punch and said, "Don't cry and lose your face, it's ugly." ”
I sat on the stone on the hill and asked Lin Guoqing for a cigarette to light up. I don't know what the road is for, my heart is quite blocked, especially when I see my parents like this. Lin Guoqing squatted beside me, and the wind on the hill was very strong, blowing his hair ruffled. He said to me: "I am a cadre who has come out of this village, and I know the situation of this village better than anyone else. But Hao Ren, I still have to say that in this village, you are the most awesome, and you are also the most worthy of admiration. ”
I was silent.
Lin Guoqing continued: "I can get out of the poor mountain village and take root in the metropolis. With this article alone, you are enough to make these people admire the five bodies to the ground. To be honest, Xia Wanyu gave the billion. Half of it is used to build education, and I have only one goal, so that the children in the poor mountain villages can go out more and go higher. Don't let them be discriminated against, let them receive the same education as the children in the city. ”
Lin Guoqing breathed a long sigh of relief, and the cigarette on his mouth was blown out by the wind. He clicked it again, and sat on the ground, without the appearance of a municipal party secretary at all.
I said to him, "Thank you." ”
"It's me who should thank you." Lin Guoqing said to me.
I didn't speak again. The breeze is blowing, and the Beiwangzhuang under the afterglow is slightly mysterious.
……
In the evening, I stayed with Lin Guoqing to eat at my house, and Lin Guoqing readily agreed. When I got home, my mother was cooking on the stove and my father was squatting on the threshold and smoking. When he saw me coming back, my father stood up and opened his mouth to ask me, but after seeing Lin Guoqing behind me, he swallowed his words stiffly.
I know that they want to ask Xia Wanyu.
At dinner in the evening, Lan Renyi and Lan Huixin also came.
When the two of them returned, they went to their grandfather's grave. Lan Renyi brought a bottle of wine to the old man, and Lan Huixin brought a college textbook to the old man. Lan Huixin was crying on her grandfather's grave, Lan Renyi stood aside and said to Lan Huixin with a smile: "Sister, the old man should be happy for you to see the college textbooks." ”
Lan Huixin is the second person in our village to come out of the woods.
……
Mother stir-fried a table of dishes, and father took out a bottle of wine.
Lan Renyi took the wine bottle and poured us wine, I took the wine bottle over, took the small wine glass, and took the porcelain bowl to give myself a full bowl. Raising my neck and drinking it like drinking water, my parents were surprised, and Lin Guoqing also shouted that I was crazy. I grinned and beckoned everyone to eat. I was destined not to be able to eat a few bites of my mother's cooking.
Because, I'm drunk.
Maybe I want to run away from my father and mother's eyes, but I really want to get drunk.
When Lin Guoqing left, he was a little worried about me, so he drove to the doctor in a neighboring village and bought two bottles of medicine and handed them to my parents.
Asked my parents to let me eat two tablets when I was in a really dangerous situation.
My mother froze in place, her hands twisted together.
