The Story of Qingfeng Village

Chapter 77
"Liu Li, come, come in." Grandma called him from the room.

Liu Li quickly ran over with a smile on his face, "Grandma, what did you ask me to do?"

Grandma led him into a room, "Come on, dear grandson, you will live in this room, this is where your mother used to live..."

The rooms where my mother lived in are all the memories and traces of my mother's stay.

For the impression of his mother Li Ying, Liu Li only stayed at a few years old.

In his memory, his mother was a very quiet person, she could sit in the room all day without making a sound.

Sometimes he walks up and down in front of his mother on purpose, or rattles those toys to get her attention, and even beats and scolds him, but she doesn't even look up.

Dad said that his mother was sick and couldn't take care of him or take him to play.

Can't you even beat him or scold him?He was so envious of other people's children being kicked out by their mothers.

Liu Li lives with his grandfather most of the time.

Only when Dad was resting did Grandpa send him over, and the family had dinner together.

At that time, my father would talk a lot to my mother, talking about the work unit, the family courtyard, and Liu Li.

I remember once when my father said that Liu Li was very good in kindergarten.

Mom seemed to understand, she suddenly raised her head, smiled at Liu Li, and nodded.

This made Dad and Liu Li very happy.

Keep saying happy things to make mom happy.

Liu Li also helped her mother scoop a spoonful of vegetables into the bowl.

But no matter how hard they try, mother's smiling face is short-lived after all.

She was completely in her own world again.

When Liu Li was playing with the children in the yard, others said his mother was crazy.

He was so angry that he never played with the children again.

I would rather squat on the ground and count ants by myself.

Then Mom went away, leaving them forever.

Liu Li followed his grandfather all the time, and his father would come to see him on weekends, but they could no longer talk to each other.It was as if the bond between father and son was gone.

After Liu Li grew up, they never talked about Li Ying.

They seem to be deliberately avoiding this topic.

So Liu Li didn't know about his mother's past.

His impression of his grandparents was only when his mother died. The adults were very noisy, and he was surrounded by several aunts and aunts.

He saw the person named grandma crying very sadly, shouting heartbreakingly at the picture of his mother, and being held up by several women, he couldn't stand up.

The man named Grandpa just smoked in silence, not saying a word.

And his uncle Li Qiang, who was still a student at that time, looked at this and that at a loss.

At that time, Liu Li didn't understand how the adults felt, and he gradually realized it when he grew up.

Looking at this simple and simple room, Liu Li thought, this is where her mother used to live, and she should have more memories here than in the city.

He wanted to ask about grandma and mother, but seeing grandma's white hair, he swallowed the words again.

He was afraid that bringing up the past again would make the old man sad.

"Grandma, go and rest."

"Well. You also wash up and go to bed early."

Grandma looked at him lovingly.

That little baby in swaddling has grown up.

After taking a special bath in the pigsty, Liu Li lay on the bed.

The quilt smelled of acacia and sunshine, it was very comfortable and fell asleep quickly.

The point is this is mom's room.

Maybe mother and child can meet each other in a dream.

In the village committee.

Li Jinfeng cleaned up the dishes and took them to wash later.

Zhu Xia stayed to tidy up the house and cleaned the ground.

Xiao Guangwei: "Mr. Zhu, I'm sorry to trouble you..."

Zhu Xia: "There's nothing to be embarrassed about. These jobs are not what you men like to do. You go out and don't bother me. I'll clean up the village committee. Don't be in a mess when someone comes tomorrow."

Xiao Guangwei and Wang Jinfa moved the stools and sat under the yellow fruit tree to brag and set up a dragon team.

Zhu Xia cleaned up the house, and seeing that it was not too late, she picked up the landline and called Liu Jianguo.

"Squad leader, I, Zhu Xia."

"Zhu Xia, haven't you rested yet?"

"Squad leader, didn't you rest too? There is something I want to tell you."

Liu Jianguo: "I also have something to tell you."

"Squad leader, you speak first."

Liu Jianguo: "Zhu Xia, you are really good at prophecy. Our distribution list has come out. I originally wanted to tell you tomorrow, but now that you have called, I will tell you now! I was assigned to Baima Town, After the specific work arrives in the town, follow the arrangement."

Zhu Xia: "That's good. Squad leader, let's visit Qingfeng Village first."

Liu Jianguo: "I think we will meet sooner or later."

Zhu Xia: "When are you coming down?"

Liu Jianguo: "Just these two days."

Zhu Xia: "The sooner the better, there's something you don't know yet, right?"

"what's up?"

"Liu Li has come to our Qingfeng Village?"

Liu Jianguo, who was sitting down to answer the phone, stood up all of a sudden.

"What? Liu Li? What is he doing in Qingfeng Village?"

Zhu Xia: "He just arrived today. He is a college student who came to Qingfeng Village to support teaching. I think he must have kept it from you. When we met last time as a classmate, you didn't mention that he was coming to Qingfeng Village to support teaching."

Liu Jianguo: "Yes, I knew he was going to support education, but I didn't know he was going to Qingfeng Village. Zhu Xia, are you sure it's our Liu Li?"

Zhu Xia: "Of course. Also, your father-in-law and Li Qiang are also coming back today. Coincidentally, they drove back to the village with Liu Li."

Liu Jianguo: "They... have already recognized each other."

Zhu Xia: "Yes. So, squad leader, you are the son-in-law and father that are missing here now."

Liu Jianguo: "I..."

Zhu Xia: "Come on, come to Qingfeng Village, your family can also be reunited."

Zhu Xia: Squad leader, I think not only the poverty alleviation work in Qingfeng Village needs you, but your father-in-law and Liu Li also need you.

Liu Jianguo: "I know what you mean. Am I that important?"

Zhu Xia: "Of course it's important. Even a screw has its own place and important function."

Liu Jianguo: "Zhu Xia, you think more clearly than I do."

Zhu Xia: "I'm an optimist, and I'm also a brick. Move it wherever you need it. Squad leader, you have to come quickly. I see Li Qiang's situation. I'm afraid they won't stay. You're here, plus Liu Li, It is possible to let Uncle Li and Aunt Li stay. As long as Uncle Li and Aunt Li are willing to stay, Li Qiang will also consider whether to stay or not.

You and Liu Li work together to get Aunt Li's job done first, as long as one of them stays, it will be a hindrance to the others. "

Liu Jianguo: "Let me think about it."

"Okay, think about it, I won't bother you anymore."

Zhu Xia hung up the phone.

He came out and said to Xiao Guangwei, "Liu Jianguo has been assigned to Baima Town."

Xiao Guangwei: "It's such a coincidence, it's not far from our expectation."

Zhu Xia: "I already told him that Liu Li is here, and Li Qiang's family is also back."

Wang Jinfa: "Then will he come to Qingfeng Village?"

Zhu Xia: "I think it will come."
