"Xiaolin, Uncle won't lie to you." Niu Dasheng looked at Li Rui and sighed and said: "In fact, in the first two years, the tribal public office had this idea, because of the problem of funds, applied to the above, but never applied for it, the above said that the financial difficulties, only a small part can be allocated, and the rest is up to our tribe to figure out by itself."

Niu Dasheng took the teacup and handed it to Li Rui, and then said: "Later, the tribe really had no choice, so I had to raise funds to build the road, you also know the situation of our tribe, and when the funds were raised, the funds were still a big difference, so the matter of building the road has been stranded, and today my uncle is still very happy to hear that you are building the road, but this road repair is really difficult."

Li Rui knew Niu Dasheng's suffering, the Nong 2 tribe was indeed very poor, so that now some people in the tribe still wear patched clothes, and they have never been to a large community.

Thinking of this, Li Rui said with a smile: "Uncle, I haven't finished talking yet, I'll pay for the road repair."

"Knock", the cigarette pouch in Niu Dasheng's hand fell to the ground, he didn't have time to pick it up, he suddenly grabbed Li Rui's hand and asked excitedly, "What? Xiaolin, you said you would pay for the road construction?"

"Well, I'll come out!" Li Rui said very firmly.

Niu Dasheng looked at him in a daze and asked, "Xiaolin, don't dare to talk nonsense, you have to think about it, do your uncles and aunts know about this?"

Li Rui shook his head and smiled, "I'll tell them when I get home later, and they will definitely support me if they know."

Niu Dasheng shook his head and said, "Xiaolin, uncle knows that you have a good heart, but the money needed to build the road is not a little, you can go back and think about it."

He knew that it was not easy for Li Rui, and he saw in his heart the hard work of contracting land to grow grass and opening a chicken farm.

Seeing Niu Dasheng say this, Li Rui didn't refute it, so he said with a smile: "Nacheng, uncle, I'll go back and think about it first, and you can help me calculate how much money I need first, I have a good number in my heart."

In fact, Li Rui has consulted the relevant construction workers before, and according to the situation of their tribe, the cost of building the road is about 100 to 1.2 million.

One million is not a small amount, it is an astronomical amount for people from the Nong 2 tribe, but for Li Rui, although he can't take it out now, he can take it out when the spring starts.

When he got home, Li Rui mentioned the matter of road construction to Lu's father and Lu's mother, Li Rui was right, and his parents supported him. According to Lao Lu's words, this is a major event for the Lu family's ancestors to accumulate virtue for generations.

Near evening, Li Rui went to the factory to pick up Lu Yufei and Wang Mengyao, who were on Friday holiday, and they were busy with schoolwork, and now they all go home once every two weeks.

Before the car arrived in the tribe, Li Rui's phone rang, and it was Mao Xiurong calling.

"If you lie to me, I'll be back soon." After hanging up the phone, Li Rui's expression was a little strange.

"Brother, who's coming?" Lu Yufei asked.

Li Rui didn't need to hide it, and said, "Mao Xiurong, it's the one you had dinner with when you signed up last time."

Lu Yufei giggled, her voice was as pleasant as a bell, "I remember that sister, she is very beautiful, and she is famous in our school, she is a good student and beautiful, and many people chase her."

"Really?" Li Rui was surprised.

"This can still be fake!" Lu Yufei blinked her eyes and smiled happily, and suddenly came up to Li Rui and said, "Brother, what do you have to do with her, she seems to be so enthusiastic about you."

"Stinky girl, stop gossiping!" Li Rui glanced sideways, his eyes subconsciously looked at Wang Mengyao next to him, only to see Wang Mengyao looking at him in a daze, silent, and a little lost.

Li Rui arrived at the gate of the tribe, and Mao Xiurong was really standing at the gate of the tribe.

In the beginning, each tribe had only one gate, and they had to pass through it to get in and out. The gate is also very simple, that is, an opening is made in the earthen wall, and a memorial arch is erected with wood, and it is written that such and such a tribe is on it.

"Why don't you go in?" Li Rui said with a smile, he hadn't seen him for a while, and seeing Mao Xiurong again made his heart ripple slightly.

Mao Xiurong pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "You're not here, and I'm embarrassed to go in." Immediately, Mao Xiurong and Lu Yu followed

Fei and Wang Mengyao greeted each other.

When they arrived at home, Lu's father and Lu's mother warmly entertained Mao Xiurong, who seemed to them to be like a future daughter-in-law.

After dinner, Mao Xiurong said that she wanted to experience the feeling of spending the night in the mountains, so Li Rui directly drove Mao Xiurong to the chicken farm.

Li Rui took Mao Xiurong to visit the chicken farm, which made Mao Xiurong feel very excited. The two then sat on the lawn outside the chicken farm for nearly two hours before getting up and going back to the house.

"Brother Xiaolin, I'm too old with Sister Yan, and I'm a little unaccustomed to living together......" Mao Xiurong looked at Yan Dulan's house.

Mao Xiurong is a woman after all, so Li Rui arranged for Mao Xiurong to live in a room with Yan Dulan in the evening.

Li Rui smiled and said, "My aunt is very good, she will be fine all night."

"I'm ......" Mao Xiurong had no choice but to nod, walked towards Yan Dulan's house, and looked back at Li Rui step by step.

This slightly pitiful look made Li Rui feel a little strange in his heart, and Li Rui said with a smile: "That Xiurong, otherwise you can stay in my room at night."

"What about you, Brother Xiaolin?"

Li Rui smiled and said, "I sleep in a chair."

As he spoke, Li Rui opened the door and turned his head to look at Mao Xiurong who was stunned, "Come in quickly."

Mao Xiurong's cheeks flushed, and she finally walked in.

Li Rui moved three chairs, used them as a bed, and then lay down, the two talked for a while, and Mao Xiurong yawned.

"Hurry up and go to sleep!" Li Rui looked at Mao Xiurong who was lying on the bed in the dark and smiled.

Mao Xiurong hummed, and after a while, she suddenly raised her head and looked at Li Rui and said, "Brother Xiaolin, the chair must be uncomfortable."

"It's okay." Li Rui smiled.

"That...... Otherwise, you will sleep on it, the chair is so hard, you must not sleep comfortably." Mao Xiurong hesitated and said.

"I'd better sleep in a chair." Li Rui said with a smile.

"It's okay!" Mao Xiurong said with a red face, seeing that Li Rui didn't get up, she sat up and said, "Brother Xiaolin, hurry up."

Li Rui was stunned, slept next to Mao Xiurong and said with a smile: "Nacheng, don't worry, I won't do anything."

"Well, Brother Xiaolin, I believe you!" Mao Xiurong nodded and smiled slightly, closed her eyes and continued to sleep.

The next day, as soon as it was dawn, Mao Xiurong opened her eyes to see that Li Rui had woken up and was looking at the ceiling.

Mao Xiurong's cheeks flushed and she smiled, "How did you sleep last night?"

"Good!" Li Rui looked at Mao Xiurong and replied with a smile, but secretly said in his heart that he was a good fart, there was a beautiful girl sleeping next to him, no matter how upright he was, he would react, and he would not do it in the future.

Li Rui took Mao Xiurong to the mountains to play in the morning, and then went to the river to catch fish and grill fish and have a lot of fun, until Mao Rulang sent a car to pick up his granddaughter, Mao Xiurong had to reluctantly go back.

Sending Mao Xiurong away, Li Rui returned to the chicken farm again, and his heart suddenly felt a little empty.

Sitting in the yard and watching the workers busy in the chicken coop, Sun Yongguo's daughter-in-law Chi Dongyan came out and looked at Li Rui in a daze, and said with a smile: "Xiaolin, as soon as that girl left, did you think about it?"

Li Rui waved his hand and smiled, "No."

"Not yet?" Chi Dongyan raised her eyebrows, lowered her voice and smiled: "Don't lie to my aunt, we are all from here, I can see at a glance what you young people are."

"Oh?" Li Rui smiled and said with interest, "That aunt, tell me what you see?"

The corners of Aunt Li's mouth twitched, and she smiled, "Auntie can see that that girl is interesting to you, isn't she?" Z.br>

When Li Rui heard that Mao Xiurong was interested in him, he was still very happy, and smiled and said, "Auntie, we are just friends."

"Friend, let's be in a room last night!" At this time, Tang Yumei came out of the hatchery room and said with a smile.

Li Rui's face turned red, although they were in the same room and didn't do anything, but they couldn't tell what they were thinking when they were seen, and the more they explained, the darker they became, so Li Rui just smiled awkwardly and stood up

To enter the house.

"Yo, look at Xiaolin's shyness, my aunt told you not to be shy, men and women don't need to be so embarrassed about this." Chi Dongyan said with a smile.

Before Li Rui sat down in the room, Li Rui's phone rang, it was Mao Xiurong calling, telling him that he had arrived at home, and at the same time, Mao Xiurong was also on the phone to thank Li Rui for his hospitality, and Li Rui responded politely.

After hanging up the phone, the phone rang again, this time from the tribal chief Niu Dasheng.

Gathering his mind, Li Rui answered the phone, and then went out of the chicken coop and went down the mountain.

When he got home, Niu Dasheng was already sitting at his house, talking with Lao Lu and his family.

"Uncle Niu, is the budget ready?" Li Rui walked in and asked with a smile.

Niu Dasheng looked at Li Rui and said with a smile: "Xiaolin, I just gave your parents, oh no, it was the uncle and aunt who chatted for a while, and they also supported you in doing this."

Seeing that Niu Dasheng specially changed his words, Lu Mu said with a smile: "Old Niu, after doing good things for the tribe, our Xiaolin will be in charge, we don't need to ask, we will support it anyway!"

"Hey." Niu Dasheng nodded and sighed: "No wonder your family is so popular in our Nong 2 tribe, this family style is so good in the first place, if our tribe was like you, we would have been rich long ago."

Lao Lu waved his hand and smiled: "Old Niu, look at what you said, the folk customs of our tribe are also simple, and they are all good, but our tribe lacks an opportunity, you said that our ancestors have lived in this land for several generations, and our descendants have to keep it, not only to keep it, but also to let our children and grandchildren live less of this kind of poor life."

"Listen to your words, brother, it really makes my old cow ashamed."

Li Rui was also enthusiastic when he heard it, and at this moment he felt that Lao Lu's thoughts, which were a little old-fashioned before, were so wise.

"I said let's stop flattering each other, let's just talk about things." Lao Lu smiled, got down from the kang and said, "You talk to Xiao Lin, I'll go make a pot of good tea for us, Xiao Lin bought it two days ago, it tastes fragrant, and I'll bring you some when I go back."

"Dad, you sit and talk, I'll go!" Ye Lan got up and went to pour tea.

Niu Dasheng didn't refuse, looked at Li Rui and said, "Xiaolin, I also thought about this thing you said yesterday all night, and when I came here today to hear you say this, I will rest assured, then we will repair this road."

Li Rui was happy for a while when he heard this, and said, "Uncle, that's right!"

Niu Dasheng smiled bitterly, and then said: "But the cost of road construction is huge, and you can't pay it all alone, Uncle thought about it last night, in addition to the above appropriation, we still take fundraising, and don't you think of the rest of the money?" In addition, I will go to the factory tomorrow to find Yongcheng, Yongcheng was raised by our tribe, and now I should pay some money."

Zhu Yongcheng and Li Rui that Niu Dasheng said in his mouth knew that his parents died early, and this family had a bowl of rice and a piece of clothing for that family. Later, the tribe funded the university, and now he is a department manager in the factory.

However, Zhu Yongcheng has never returned to the Nong 2 tribe since he mixed up, and almost no contact with the tribesmen.

In the evening of the same day, a meeting was held in the tribe to discuss the approval of specific matters such as the construction of the road. The next morning, Li Rui drove Niu Dasheng to the factory together.

Before, Li Rui planned to pay all the money alone, but Niu Dasheng also made sense to say that, anyway, he said that Zhu Yongcheng had a general relationship with other people in the tribe, but unlike him, he was the main person who funded Zhu Yongcheng's growth and schooling. On the other hand, Zhu Yongcheng is a member of the 2nd tribe of Nong, and he was raised by all of them, so it stands to reason that he should also contribute to the construction of roads.

Li Rui can't say anything, let's see how much he can raise at that time.
