The severe cold has not yet faded, and the festive "New Year" smell on the streets is blowing in the face.

There are many villagers setting up stalls along the street intersection in Piyazi Village.

Those who sell skinned teeth, local chickens or eggs, and some people sell grass carp from the Ningxi River.

Village officials took to the streets again to carry out a weekly street cleaning.

The sidewalks on both sides of the main street in the east-west direction of Piyazi Village.

More than a dozen village cadres are clearing the snow in sections.

I heard the noisy sound of horses' hooves coming from the east.

Miao Miao saw that the horses running from the sidewalk did not seem to slow down at all.

He hurriedly shouted, "Everyone be careful, avoid the horse point." ”

As soon as the words fell, three tall horses galloped past Miao Miao.

Fortunately, Miao Miao dodged in time, otherwise she would have been knocked to the ground by the three horses who were on a rampage.

Looking at the figures on the back of the three horses wearing red blankets, the anger in Miao Miao's heart did not come to a place.

Miao Miao was afraid that the horses would collide with the village cadres who were clearing the snow.

He hurriedly threw down the shovel in his hand and hurried after the galloping horse.

In the west, Jack Hill was pushing the snow with a snow plough when he heard the sound of horses' hooves, and saw three horses rushing up without a head.

He threw away the snow pusher in his hand, and when the horse approached, he reached out and, somehow, grabbed the horse that was running in front.

The owners of the two horses in the back had to pull the reins.

Both horses raised their front hooves and neighed.

Jack Shan looked up at the three green-faced boys on the horse, "Chef Ma's youngest son Ma Jun, Xiao Tashi's eldest son Garula, Ayishan's eldest grandson Gali, you three stinky guys, your eyes are full of anger?" Didn't you see the village cadres sweeping snow on the sidewalk? What should I do if I bump into someone? ”

Unconvinced, the three boys sat on their horses and looked at the kind-eyed Jack with disdain.

Miao Miao came over panting and asked sharply, "Are you betting on horses?" ”

The three boys listened to Miao Miao's words, looked at each other, pretended not to hear clearly, and ignored him.

Jack Shanbai suddenly understood, "How old are you?" Just play this? It's too unusual, how much do you bet? ”

The three boys were still pretending to be deaf and dumb.

Miao Miao guessed, "Is it 100 yuan?" ”

Jack Shanbai said coaxing and frightened: "Betting on horses is also gambling, you almost hit pedestrians in order to gamble on horses, should you find your adults to deal with this matter." ”

The Hui boy named Ma Jun said anxiously: "I didn't gamble so much, just 10 yuan." ”

Jack Shan worshiped with interest, "In this way, I will make a bet with you, bet 100 yuan once, I lose, I will give you 100 yuan each." ”

Little Tashi's son, Garula, unceremoniously asked, "Then what should we do if we lose?" ”

Jack Mountain Bai pointed to the snow on the sidewalk, "The three of you each clean 100 meters of snow, what's the matter, do you dare to bet?" ”

Ma Jun, a hairy young man, came as soon as he opened his mouth, "Who is afraid of whose grandson." ”

When Miao Miao heard this, she reprimanded: "You kid, why don't you have any politeness, why do you talk to the old man?!" I didn't learn well at a young age, so I learned to bet on horses. ”

The eldest boy Ma Jun didn't realize his lack of education, and glared at Miao Miao angrily in disbelief.

Jack Shanbai winked playfully at Miao Miao.

Miao Miao understood what Secretary Jack meant, and looked at how I cleaned up these three stinky boys who didn't know how thick the sky was.

Jack Shanbai raised his voice and asked, "Which of you lent me a horse to ride?" ”

Afterburner, who was silent next to him, hurriedly jumped off the horse.

He obediently handed the reins of the horse to Jack Shanbai.

Jack Sanbai grabbed the reins in his hand and stepped on the stirrup, and he turned over and easily got on the horse.

From the way he jumped on his horse, it was clear that he was an old rider.

Under the witness of Miao Miao and Afterburner, the three horses ran forward at the same time.

The horse's hooves kicked up a puff of snow.

After a while, Jack Shanbai returned triumphantly on his horse.

He jumped off the horse, tied the reins to the telephone pole, and muttered disdainfully, "Cut, a few dolls with no hair, still fighting with me, still tender." ”

In the team to clear the snow, there were three more sixteen or seventeen-year-old boys.

Although the three hairy boys are reluctant, they are willing to gamble and lose.

In half a day, the snow on the sidewalk was cleared.

Miao Miao looked at the three boys who rode away, and said worriedly: "Secretary Jack, these boys who are at home on vacation, let's gather them together and do something meaningful. ”

Jack Shanbai held the head of the shovel handle with both hands, put his chin on the back of his hand, and squinted to discuss with Miao Miao, "Miao Miao, isn't the 3,000 mu of land in our village 20 yuan more than the target per mu?" I want to spend all the 6,000 yuan on these children on winter vacation. ”

"Yes, it's better for the village committee to guide them to do some serious things than for them to be idle at home." Miao Miao agreed with Secretary Jack's opinion.

Jack Shanbai communicated with Miao Miao, "Recently, the epidemic prevention work has been strengthened, and the higher-level departments require each village to set up a card point to check the health QR code and itinerary data card of pedestrians. What I mean is that we can mobilize the idle strong laborers in the village, let them become volunteers for epidemic prevention work, and use the income of our village collective to give them some subsidies, so that the village cadres can free up their time to do some other work. ”

Miao Miao said worriedly: "The card point is full of volunteers, okay?" ”

Jack Shanbai waved his hand, "Deputy village head Yuan Jie leads the team to be responsible for the card point work, think about it, what should these college students and high school students do at home?" You can't let them bet on horses anymore, can you?! ”

Miao Miao pondered for a while, "Can you arrange these idle students on duty, don't we do nucleic acid testing every three days in Ningxi, let them maintain the nucleic acid testing team, and enter the information of the tested villagers into the system." The village cadres vacated and hurriedly collected the serious illness, accident medical insurance and pension, and handed them over to the township before the Spring Festival. ”

Jack Shanbai nodded, "Okay, let's have a meeting in the evening and arrange it." ”

Miao Miao mentioned one more thing to the village party secretary, "Secretary Jack, it's almost the Spring Festival, every year there are paired units to visit relatives and comfort people in difficulty, I want to take the opportunity of the county unit to sell the special products of our Piyazi Village, in the WeChat group of the big family of Piyazi villagers, many villagers say that their stored Piyazi has not been sold out." ”

Jack asked, "And what do you want to do?" ”

Miao Miao pointed to the parking lot in front of the village committee, "Let the villagers make use of the parking lot and set up stalls there to sell leather teeth." ”

Jack Hill pondered for a while, "Just do what you want, hey, don't say it, we don't even have a decent bazaar in Piyazi Village, it's also a problem." ”

Miao Miao struck while the iron was hot, "Secretary Jack, I have already taken a good look at a piece of land, let's strive for a project this year and build an activity venue." ”

Jack Hill was surprised: "Where is there an open space on the side of the street?" They are all villagers' houses. Three years ago, a piece of land adjacent to the west of the village committee where garbage was piled up was renovated and expanded, and became a large warehouse of the village committee. You can't tear down this big storehouse, can you?! ”

The land on the banks of the Ningxi River
