Chapter 205: One Man Leads One Village, Illuminates the Whole City
When Dong Guofeng delivered the news to Yanziying, the Pengcheng Management Department and the Weixian County Management Department jointly optimized the important road sections in the urban area and the county.
In particular, it is worth mentioning that the management department has carried out in-depth optimization and refinement for specific good news delivery routes.
The Highway Administration and City Appearance Management Office received a notice to create a strong New Year atmosphere on both sides of the road.
Red lanterns, symbolizing good fortune, are carefully hung on the green belt, and LED light strips are wrapped around the tree poles, so that the whole road can also exude a warm and festive light in the evening.
Every 20 meters, New Year slogans are hung on each section.
Pengcheng is the first important town in northern Jiangsu, the largest city in terms of population, although Wei County does not have much light, but because of this movement, it is really busy.
There is no other reason, just because tomorrow the media in Ludao will come to follow the shooting, and this time the eyes of the whole country will gather in Wei County, and it is not okay to be cautious.
When many local residents went out to hang out, they stopped to watch when they saw such a big move by the management department, and asserted that a big leader was going to come down to inspect.
Otherwise, it would not have been so positive in previous years.
Camp Boom.
After Dong Guofeng left, Chen Ming gradually recovered his composure from the initial shock.
Although he was surprised by the result of winning the first-class merit, it was not incomprehensible or unacceptable, and it was not too much to accept this honor without guilt.
He just felt that it was too sudden.
Chen Ming, who was relieved, was about to continue to complete the Spring Festival couplets just now, when the villagers of the Qiziying camp, including his father Chen Qianghe and his third uncle Chen Qiangshui, all surrounded him.
He asked worriedly, "Ming, did something happen to you outside?" Although my aunt has no culture and doesn't understand any big truths, I can see that the big leader just now has a very serious face, if you have anything, just tell the people in the village, we can help you. ”
"That's right, Ming, you came back suddenly during the Chinese New Year, and soon after you arrived home, someone from the Armed Forces Department came, did something happen in the army?"
Just now standing a little farther away the villagers did not know what was going on at all, and asked worriedly.
And some of the older men who are a little closer can't listen to it.
"Go, go, what are you listening to? Just now, the people from the People's Armed Forces Department said that Mingming has made meritorious service again, isn't it? ”
"Yes, I heard it too, it seems to say that it is a first-class merit, and there is disaster relief or something, what the hell is going on?"
"Mingzi, you are what I grew up watching, tell my uncle if you have anything, what happened just now? Why did the people from the Armed Forces Department suddenly come over and say disaster relief, meritorious service or something? ”
Chen Ming faced the inquiries around him, scratched his head and smiled: "Uncle, aunt, you don't have to worry, it's not that you're causing trouble outside, the night before yesterday, there was a mudslide disaster in Wugai Mountain on Ludao, and our troops arrived first and launched a rescue in the disaster area."
"Maybe it was because I did well at the time, so the decision was made to give me a commendation."
Heron Island ?!!
Disaster ?!! in Ugai Mountain
The villagers of the Bangzi camp were full of confusion, they only cared about preparing New Year's goods for the past two days, preparing for the New Year, and they didn't know about it at all.
Hearing that Chen Ming also went to the scene for disaster relief, a group of people even raised their hearts to their throats, disasters, for ordinary people, are often cast layer after layer of shadows.
"You're alright, Mingzi." The third uncle, Chen Qiangshui, was also taken aback, he didn't expect his nephew to come home directly from the disaster area, and rushed over to pull Chen Ming to check.
Chen Qianghe also looked nervously, about disaster relief, the older generation of people have more experience of these than young people.
"I'm fine, Uncle San, it's really fine." Chen Ming seemed to be afraid that his family would be worried, so he deliberately stretched out his arms and turned around twice, which made the people around him dispel their worries, but despite this, everyone was still afraid for a while.
Chen Ming didn't talk about the rescue process, let alone the things that left the disaster area late at night, although these don't need to be kept secret, they have been exposed by the news, but it makes no sense to say it, it just adds to the family's worries.
Seeing that Chen Ming was really fine, Chen Qiangshui was completely relieved and greeted with a smile.
"That, uncle, aunt, our family still has to do things tomorrow, I won't write the Spring Festival couplets today, and when I'm done, just go to my house and write as much as I want."
Chen Qiangshui stood up to play a round and was ready to take Chen Ming back, although they had experienced it twice, they could be regarded as familiar with the road, but this time the notice was too sudden.
Family meetings are always held, all aspects of the arrangements must be in place, the dried fruits and snacks for entertaining guests must be prepared, and the chef and ingredients are inevitable.
Although the people in the meritorious service team usually don't stay here, tomorrow there will be not only people from the management department, but also relatives, partial relatives, villagers, neighbors, and people who come to be lively together.
It must always be arranged, and you can't let people stand.
Knowing that Chen Ming's family has something to do, how can other villagers care about writing Spring Festival couplets.
Student Wen even stood up directly and proposed: "What, Mingming, this kid has a future, our whole village is moving, sweeping the open space in front of each house, the first-class merit is not comparable to the previous two times, this is a great hero in the wartime, and many people will inevitably come to our village tomorrow."
"It's not enough for Lao Chen's family alone, and we can't just patronize and join in the fun."
"I propose that early tomorrow morning, a table be set up at the door of each house, and hot tea, melon seeds, and fruit snacks can be put as much as you want, so that the comrades from the management department who come over can taste it."
"Don't be afraid of people eating, don't let people say that the people in our Yuandian Yanzi camp are stingy."
"If you have nothing at home, you will go to Qianghe's house to help, and the New Year's goods that have been blown up today will be sent over first, and tomorrow you will arrange people in each team, and follow Mingming to greet the leader tomorrow."
"Get busy, post today's Spring Festival couplets, and whoever hasn't yet asked me to write them, showing the atmosphere of the New Year."
"Buy more firecrackers, and they'll all be festive."
"Hurry up, get busy, it's going to be dark, and it's going to be difficult to do when the mall closes."
In the end, Wen Xuexue is the person with the highest prestige among the older generation of the Yanzi Camp, and when he speaks, the whole village starts to act.
Although the village in some provinces does not have its own ancestral hall of the clan, it is better than the hearts of the people.
With Mr. Wen speaking, most people are willing to cooperate.
Chen Ming stood aside and couldn't interject, he could only be regarded as a junior in the village, and seeing that the villagers were busy because of his affairs, his heart was even warmer.
Maybe there is a saying that is very true, when you are strong, you are surrounded by good people, and when you are down, you are surrounded by people who step on you.
But no matter what, at this moment, the whole village was busy for Chen Ming.
Chen Qianghe couldn't wait to pull his son and take Chen Qiangshui and Peng Peng's little guy back, Hu Caixia fried tofu at home, and didn't know the news of his son's return.
Seeing Chen Ming suddenly arrive home, his mother Hu Caixia hurriedly got up to greet her, and said with a look of surprise: "You kid, why don't you know how to say it in advance if you want to go home today."
"It's good to come back, it's good to come back, quick, Mingzi, you go to the house first, you are at home for the New Year this year, I want to go buy some more things, his third uncle, you also go to the house to sit, I'll go out and buy some more things."
Hu Caixia said, without waiting for Chen Ming's response, she was ready to take off her apron and go out happily.
Seeing this, Chen Qianghe waved his hand with a slightly meaningful expression.
"Don't be busy, I'll buy the things later, my son has made meritorious service again this time, and people from the county will come over tomorrow to send the merit."
"Wait for Qiangshui to take me to the county, go to the big supermarket to buy some dried fruits, buy a bag of melon seeds, and entertain guests tomorrow, you will go out to the town to buy some cigarettes, buy some wine or something, you have to buy something better."
"Then call his aunt, second aunt, and third aunt to come back and help prepare."
Meritorious service again?!!
Hu Caixia stopped in surprise and looked at her son on the side.
Regarding the disaster relief, his father Chen Qianghe tacitly did not mention it, and the third uncle did not say it, so Chen Ming naturally would not mention it in front of his mother stupidly.
simply smiled and changed the subject: "Mom, I'm hungry, do you have something to eat at home now?"
"Yes, yes, freshly cooked meat, smoked bacon, and fried meatballs." When Hu Caixia heard that her son was hungry, she quickly put the meritorious service behind her.
For a mother, no amount of merit is as tangible as when a child returns home for the New Year.
Chen Qianghe took Chen Qiangshui to the door to paste all the Spring Festival couplets he had just written, and the house must be very lively at night, so it was too late to do these things.
Regarding the Spring Festival couplets, Chen Ming did not rush to do them, these things are all done by his father, who is the head of the family, in Zhang Luo, and now it is not his turn.
Night, again.
After two days and two nights of hard work, the rescue work in Yao Village at the foot of Wugai Mountain is nearing completion, and the mud in the houses has been basically cleared.
But the atmosphere at the scene was particularly depressing, overwhelming, and the golden time for rescue was seventy-two hours, but this was just a theory.
The impact of the mudslide was far more violent and terrible than the flood and the earthquake, so that dozens of families closer to the foot of the mountain had no chance to react, and it was too late to run out when they heard the movement.
The huge impact bulldozed the entire courtyard, and the innermost area was blocked, strictly prohibiting media workers from approaching, but at this time, not many media workers were hanging around here, and they were all arranged to Pengcheng from above.
Chai Shuyao stood on the periphery of the forbidden area, and saw that the whole person was stupid in place, this rescue, Chen Ming carried out thirty-six people alone, and the follow-up rescue force, thousands of people rushed to help.
Chai Shuyao only understood at this time that thousands of people asked for credit, not only for the dawn of the night, but also for the hope of living, the bitter complaint of natural disasters, the longing for his family, and a sustenance for his soul.
The reconstruction work is ready to start, the rescue forces are retreating one after another, and Chai Shuyao is also about to set off for Pengcheng.
Compared with the situation in Yao Village, the Yanziying side is much more lively.
Especially the Chen family.
At eight o'clock in the evening, Chen Ming's uncle Chen Qiangjiang, his father, the third uncle, and many people from his family gathered together, and they all heard about the day's events.
Including the juniors of the Chen family, they also rushed back from outside, especially the cousin of the uncle's family, Chen Kaifei, when he was working in the county, he heard that Wei County was going to do something to send merit tomorrow.
It is also hung with lanterns and light strips on the main road sections, and New Year's slogans are everywhere.
It's just that he never expected that the notice issued from above was to carry out in-depth optimization, clean up work, and light up the entire city, just for one person.
One man lights up a city.
And this man is still his cousin.
