The leisurely life of farmers in mountain villages

Chapter 158 This Road Should Be Repaired

Wang Fumin's family in Taohualing Village bought a brand new black sedan, which immediately became the biggest news in Dazhai Village.

Old neighbors, new neighbors, old and young in the village all came to watch the fun.

The car was parked in the yard of Wang's chicken farm, surrounded by people watching the excitement, and brought the children here, for fear that the children would accidentally damage the paint of the car, and they all looked like they were facing an enemy.

Wang Fumin treasured this sedan car even more than his own son, and people who came said that the car cost 10,000+, and it would cost thousands of dollars if a piece of paint was knocked off.When people who come to see the freshness hear it, they dare not move even more.

Wang Fumin and his wife used to live in the center of the village. There were only about [-] households in the village, and the original houses were all very close to each other, so everyone was very close.So, after the car was bought, almost everyone in the village came to see it.

Sometimes some guys who used to have a good relationship wanted to sit in the cab. If Wang Shaodong saw it, he would take the initiative to open the car door for them and let them touch the steering wheel or something.But when there was only Wang Fumin, he seemed a bit reluctant.

After Wang Shaodong noticed this, after everyone had left, he reminded his father that this car was just a pile of scrap iron, far less important than the old and young men in the village, so don't affect the relationship with everyone because of this dumb thing.

Moreover, Wang Shaodong also said that his brothers and uncles went in and sat around, and the damage caused was not as severe as the small dirt road from Dazhai Village to Taohualing Village.

This dirt road is only 4000 meters in total, full of potholes, if a careless person drives the A6, he will have to bump into it.

Another point, more importantly, in the summer rainy season, the roads are very muddy, not to mention sedan cars can't be driven at all, even tractors often get stuck in mud puddles.

Among the fourteen administrative villages in Dazhai Township, by 2003, the two richest villages were Dazhai Village and Bianjiaquan Village.These two villages are adjacent to National Highway 205, and there are almost two dozen wealthy households who own private cars.

Those who own private cars also park their cars in the courtyards on both sides of National Highway 205, and never drive their cars into the village.

Among the other twelve natural villages, it is considered good for a few villages to have two broken Santanas.And like Wang Shaodong, there are really not many people who directly drive an A6 into their homes along the dirt road.

Wang Shaodong likes cars, but he doesn't say he treats them like his ancestors.However, when it comes to the potholed road, Wang Shaodong has a small plan in his heart. When he has money in the future, he must repair the 4000-meter dirt road into asphalt.

After the car was bought, it was kept in the yard for the villagers to visit, and Wang Shaodong never had a chance to drive it out.

Six days later, Wang Shaodong called Han Kang and asked him how the contact for the class reunion was going and how many people could be there.

The class reunion is scheduled for tomorrow, the second day after the May Day holiday. Basically, all the students who went out to college should be able to come back.Unless it is those who go out of the province to go to university, and the travel expenses are too expensive to return.

As for the majority of those who can't get into college, let alone, when they heard that they had a meal in Xinxing Building, they really didn't care who invited them.

Wang Shaodong wanted to invite his classmates to get together tomorrow in Xinxing Building, and Han Kang told Wang Shaodong on the phone that he, the Communist Youth League Secretary Han Haixia, and Fatty Wu Zhe made the call one by one. There were 48 people in the class. , We were all notified, and there were only thirty or so people who agreed at that time, and then said to see how many others would go if they had time, and it was clearly stated that they could not participate, that is, three people who were studying in universities in other provinces.

When Wang Shaodong heard this, he thought that he had to book a hotel today, and it seemed that there would be no problem with more than forty people. If the head teacher and the others invited him over, there should be enough room for five tables.

Thinking in this way, Wang Shaodong told his family, and then planned to drive the newly bought A6, and planned to go to Xinxing Building to book a private room first, and then went to the school to sit at the home of his head teacher Ma Guanghui.

The car drove to the door of Ma Zhentang's house, Wang Shaodong frowned, then took off the gear, pulled the handbrake, got out of the station and rushed inside at the door of Ma Zhentang's house, shouting: "Uncle Zhentang, my sister Lili hasn't come back on Wuyi yet?"

Yesterday, May Day was a holiday, but Wang Shaodong didn't hear Ma Lili coming home.

Ma Zhentang's daughter-in-law came out of the house and said to Wang Shaodong with a smile: "Dongzi, your sister Lili is going to be a tutor in Quancheng on May [-]st, and she doesn't plan to come back."

Wang Shaodong snorted, turned around and got into his car with some regret.

The village road is a dirt road built in the 80s when it was first opened. Before that, in the 70s and [-]s, this dirt road was less than one meter wide. Let alone driving a car on it, even two bicycles had to be on the road. The individual carried his bicycle to the side of the road to give way.

If you want to get rich first, build roads. In the past, it was not just a simple slogan. The fact is that if you don’t build roads, villages in the mountains like Taohualing, Qingquanling, Luohanyu, etc. have no way out.

Later, in the 90s, the state called on all villages to raise funds to build roads, and then the relatively wealthy Dazhai and Fangjiazhuang villages raised funds to build asphalt roads from the original dirt roads.However, from the village head on the west side of Fangjiazhuang Village to Taohualing Village, the four-kilometer road was poor because the villages on both sides were relatively poor, and the money raised was not enough to repair the asphalt road. Flatten it with a roller.

But after a rainy season, the sand and stones were washed away, making the dirt road even more difficult than before.

Walking on this kind of road, driving a car with a low chassis like the Audi A6, if you are not careful, you will be knocked by a raised stone on the road.

At most, Wang Shaodong dared to put it in second gear, dodged left and right in the car, and finally came to the asphalt road in Fangjiazhuang Village, and he let out a sigh of relief.

"NND, when I have money, I have to build this road into a two-way, four-lane asphalt road. It's too fucking embarrassing."

A good car is not as fast as someone else's bicycle. Wang Shaodong was so aggrieved that he immediately shifted to fifth gear on the asphalt road.

In this day and age, there are not many pedestrians on the road, but there are more people walking around on both sides of the road and watching the pedestrians on the road.

A brand new Audi A6 drove over from the west, and those who knew cars on both sides of the road frowned.

"He's from Xibian Village, who bought an A6?"

"You still don't know? A big chicken farmer in Taohualing Village, their family bought a new A6."

"Emma, ​​with the bumpy road over there, can you still run A6?"

Indeed, this road really needs to be repaired.
