It's snowing again.

It has been raining since the second half of the night, and the snow is falling heavily, and there is no intention of stopping until the morning.

"Assistant Jiang, the snow is so heavy, are you still going?"

Li Qingyi looked at the big snowflakes flying in the sky and asked a little worriedly.

Shanhua Village, she went with Jiang Xiaobai in September last year, and the road to Xueluozhai was not easy to walk, and it was even more difficult to walk when it snowed heavily.

What's more, you have to walk for two hours on the mountain road.

"Otherwise, don't go along."

Jiang Xiaobai glanced at Li Qingyi and said.

The mountain road was slippery in the rain and snow, and he was just worried that Li Qingyi would not be able to walk on such a mountain road, so he had no other meaning.

Li Qingyi thought too much, thinking that Jiang Xiaobai said that she was afraid of difficulties, so she hurriedly said: "I'm just worried about your safety, I'm fine." ”

As soon as Jiang Xiaobai heard this, she knew that she had misunderstood herself, and said with a smile: "I don't mean anything else, it's just that you really don't need to follow me on this trip." ”

Li Qingyi said: "Then how can it be done? ”

"I'm your secretary, and I'll be with you wherever you go."

Jiang Xiaobai smiled, "I just went to Shanhuacun Primary School to have a look, and I don't have any work." ”

"Well, you just stay in Tucheng and go see that land, it will be developed after the new year."

Li Qingyi also knew about the development of the commercial and residential land in Tucheng.

Hearing Jiang Xiaobai say this, he immediately said, "Okay, I'll take a look again." ”

Jiang Xiaobai nodded, and said: "In addition, you go around Tucheng more to see where the land is suitable, let's take a few more pieces, once the natural gas project starts, the land price in Tucheng will be high in the future." ”

Li Qingyi said: "No problem, I'll investigate it, and then give you a plan." ”

With a work arrangement, she can not go to Shanhua Village.

After all, it's the work that counts.

Jiang Xiaobai said: "You can find Director Xu of the Land Bureau, you also met at the banquet yesterday." ”

Li Qingyi nodded, "Okay, I know." ”

Jiang Xiaobai opened the car door and was about to get into the car, as if he suddenly remembered something, stopped and turned around, and said to Li Qingyi: "By the way, you tell Li Gen to go to his house for dinner in the evening." ”

"Good! I'll talk to him in a moment. Li Qingyi agreed with a smile.

Jiang Xiaobai said: "The road is not easy to walk today, and it is estimated that I will come back a little late." ”

Li Qingyi said: "I will make it clear to him." ”

Jiang Xiaobai got into the car at this time.

Zhang Xiaoshun drove in the direction of Xueluozhai.

There are already fewer cars in Tucheng, and even fewer cars on the road after heavy snowfall, Land Rover Cou

t

Y almost all the way to the snow to the village.

Zhang Xiaoshun still parked his car in front of the old supply and marketing cooperative.

Seeing that the door of the supply and marketing cooperatives was open, Jiang Xiaobai walked in.

"Uncle Hong, hello!"

Jiang Xiaobai greeted and handed over a Huazi.

Hong Kaiyu rubbed his eyes, saw that it was Jiang Xiaobai, and showed a smiling face, "Xiao Jiang, it's you!" ”

"With such a big snowfall, why are you here?"

After speaking, he seemed to suddenly realize and said, "It's almost the New Year, let's go to see Teacher Li again!" ”

Jiang Xiaobai nodded and said, "Come, you smoke a cigarette!" ”

"Excuse me!" Hong Kaiyu smiled wryly, "I was happy to see you, I just talked and forgot to take the cigarette." ”

As he spoke, he took the cigarette with a smile.

Jiang Xiaobai hurriedly took out a disposable lighter, helped him light it, and then lit it for himself.

"It's still Xiao Jiang, your cigarettes are good to smoke!"

Hong Kaiyu spat out a puff of smoke and said with a smile.

Jiang Xiaobai smiled and slapped most of the half bag of Huazi on his hand, "You are used to smoking, this half bag will honor you." ”

Only give most of the bag with him, and it is not deep Jiang Xiaobai is reluctant. It's that he knows that if he goes to get one, or even a pack, the old man won't accept it.

And half a pack......

Hong Kaiyu happily took it and said with a smile: "Then take advantage of you." ”

"Come and sit down and have a cup of hot tea."

Saying that, he pulled Jiang Xiaobai to drink tea.

Jiang Xiaobai obediently followed him to the roasting table and sat down. If you don't drink tea, the old man will most likely return half a pack of cigarettes to him.

The rural old people in this era are so simple and lovely.

"Uncle Hong, you're okay!"

Jiang Xiaobai drank hot tea and asked loudly.

Hong Kaiyu said: "Okay, okay." Pointing to the fire table, he said, "Since you gave me this table, I am not afraid of heavy snow in winter, it is hot." ”

Jiang Xiaobai asked about some household routines again, and Hong Kaiyu also said them one by one.

In general, the days are getting better day by day.

However, he could also see that the old man's expression became a little gloomy as he spoke.

Jiang Xiaobai couldn't help asking, "Uncle Hong, what's wrong with you?" Did you encounter any difficulties? ”

Hong Kaiyu waved his hand, "I'm an old man who is about to enter the ground, what difficulties can I have?" He glanced at Jiang Xiaobai and said with some sadness: "You come this time, see ...... I can't see ...... The old headmaster. ”

Jiang Xiaobai was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "Uncle Hong, what's wrong with the old principal?" ”

Hong Kaiyu said: "Last month, the old principal left... Finish! ”

"Old Headmaster...... Let's go? ”

Jiang Xiaobai was stunned for a long time, still a little incredulous.

Hong Kaiyu said: "The old principal's health was not good, and he had been dragged by force, and he didn't survive this winter in the end. ”

The old principal's health was not good, Jiang Xiaobai knew about it, but he didn't expect him to leave so soon.

If he hadn't come this time, he wouldn't have known about it.

Shanhua Village is still too remote, and transportation and communication are very inconvenient.

Jiang Xiaobai borrowed two baskets from Hong Kaiyu, loaded all the things he brought to the school, and walked towards Shanhua Village with Zhang Xiaoshun carrying a basket of things.

Brave the wind and snow all the way, fortunately, both he and Zhang Xiaoshun have excellent physical fitness, and after more than two hours of trekking, they finally arrived at Shanhua Village.

The whole small mountain village is covered with snow, and no one goes out.

The sound of reading can be heard from afar, and the newly renovated school is covered in silver, only the bright red on the top of the flagpole on the playground is particularly bright.

Today, the students are all in the new school, and although there are only thirty or forty students, there are seven classes from preschool to sixth grade, with only six or seven students in each class, and the spacious classrooms with desks and chairs are a little empty.

But in the winter, there is a fire table in every classroom, and the classroom is warm.

"Assistant Jiang, are you here?"

Just when Jiang Xiaobai was looking at a classroom through the closed glass window, the young teacher inside also saw him, walked out quickly, and said with joy in his eyes.

"Teacher Yin, okay!"

Jiang Xiaobai said with a smile.

This teacher is none other than Yin Shi's son Yin Zheng.

He is now a volunteer teacher at Shanhua Village Primary School, and has been teaching here for a year, and after this winter vacation, he will also leave here and return to Qiusu Primary School in Qingzhou.
