official journey ups and downs

More and more villagers gathered to watch. Almost all the people in the village surrounded Li Maoshan's house. There were even people on the courtyard wall, chicken coop, toilet wall, and the tree in front of the door.Everyone in the village is like this, if anyone has something to do, they must run faster than anyone else, and they have to run with a bowl to watch the excitement during meals.

Qin Qihua crossed his hips angrily and walked around in the yard. He pointed at Li Maoshan and scolded: "Well, you Li Maoshan, you don't want to be the village chief, right? , let me tell you, someone will come to develop Lion Head Mountain soon, which is good for you, Qiaobei Village, Shihe Town, and even Dongquan County. Can you handle this responsibility?"

Li Maoshan didn't intend to continue to be the village head, but when he heard that someone had come to invest in Lion's Head Mountain, his body trembled, and the cucumber in his hand fell to the ground. He looked at Qin Qihua helplessly, and was speechless.Hearing that someone came to invest, the villagers rioted for a while, and soon happily discussed the investment in Lion's Head Mountain.

Since the last mine accident, the Lion's Head Mountain Mine has been in the consolidation phase.Cai Jiaquan took tough measures and shut down all enterprises in one fell swoop, investing huge sums of money to restore the vegetation on Lion's Head Mountain.For a period of time, this work has been continuously promoted, but the effect is not very obvious. For the financially dependent Shihe Town, it is simply rushing ducks to the shelves, and the pockets are shy.

Originally, some nearby villagers were still working in the Shitou Mountain Mine. Although they did not earn much, they could barely support their families.But since the shutdown, the source of income has been cut off, and life has become more difficult.

Qin Qihua saw that his work had worked, so he said to Shen Tong again: "Shen Tong, you recruited this big company with all your efforts, and it is said that you were sent to an asylum because of this, and you have to follow me. Let's go, this is your income from labor, and it is also the reward you deserve for your efforts."

Qin Qihua deserves to be working at the grassroots level all year round, and he convinced Shen Tong and Li Maoshan with a few words.Shen Tong also stood there dumbfounded, with his head lowered and not speaking.

Qin Qihua walked up to Li Maoshan, kicked Li Maoshan's ass vigorously, and said, "Why are you still squatting here, why don't you hurry up and pack things for Shen Tong, shit, and talk back to me, the opposite You pay it back."

Li Maoshan was kicked by Qin Qihua until he sat down on the ground, causing the crowd to laugh.A villager who climbed up a tree to watch the fun laughed so hard that he almost fell off the tree. Fortunately, the fellow on the tree caught him.

At this time, Tian Xiulan lifted the curtain and went in to clean up for Shen Tong. Every time she packed up something, she felt inexplicably sad.Although Tian Xiulan and Shen Tong have not been together for a long time, they live together every day and eat in the same pot, even strangers have feelings for each other.Especially that lingering relationship with Shen Tong, which she will never forget.Before she knew it, Tian Xiulan shed tears, which made Shen Tong beside her very sad.

Shen Tong's things were very simple, a quilt and a few pieces of clothes, which were quickly packed into the car.The moment Shen Tong was about to step into the car, there was a hysterical cry from a distance: "Officer Shen, wait a minute."

Shen Tong immediately looked back, and it turned out to be the old lady Zhang who lived in the west of the village and was nearly 80 years old.I saw tremblingly walking towards Shen Tong with a cane and a basket in his hand.

The old lady Zhang is a five-guarantee household. She has no children and never married.Later, someone wanted to marry her, but she thought her body was dirty, so she refused.Later, he lived alone all his life.Although her family was not seriously affected by the landslide this time, she had no choice but to wait for others to help her because she had no labor.

After Shen Tong saw this situation, he organized villagers who were not affected by the disaster to help Mrs. Zhang renovate her house. In addition, Shen Tong also rearranged her yard and built a chicken coop for her in the northeast corner.When she was free, she would accompany Mrs. Zhang to work in the field, which made Mrs. Zhang very excited.

She didn't know who said that Shen Tong was going to leave, so she hurriedly put the eggs she had accumulated into the basket one by one, and walked quickly to Li Maoshan's house.

Shen Tong hurried over, supported Granny Zhang, and said with concern: "Grandma Zhang, walk slowly."

Mrs. Zhang stood still, gasping for breath, and said after a short break, "Officer Shen, I heard you're leaving?"

Shen Tong held Mrs. Zhang's withered hand, looked at her taupe eyes, and nodded heavily.

Mrs. Zhang sighed helplessly, and said: "I was still counting on you to go to work in the field for me. What can I do if you are gone?" Gently wiped dry eyes.

At this time, Qin Qihua also got out of the car, walked quickly to the old lady Zhang, and said affectionately: "Ma'am, Shen Tong has more important tasks on him, don't worry, if Shen Tong doesn't leave, he will come back often It's up to you."

Mrs. Zhang glanced at Shen Tong, pointed at Qin Qihua and said, "Is what he said true?"

At this moment, Shen Tong was also deeply moved by Mrs. Zhang's actions. He didn't want to shed tears in front of so many people, so he just put back his tears and said with a choked voice: "Grandma Zhang, I'm in the town. I won't go, if you have something, you can tell Brother Li Maoshan, if he knows, I will know too, and I will definitely come back in time."

"That's good, that's good, come on, Officer Shen, take this, grandma has nothing to give you." After speaking, he handed over a basket of eggs.

Shen Tong refused to ask for anything, pushed back and forth several times, old lady Zhang stomped her feet angrily, and shouted with all her strength: "You must take it, this is the best wishes."

Qin Qihua looked at it and was moved by it, so he said to Shen Tong: "Shen Tong, why don't you just accept it, this is not only the sincerity of the aunt, but also the hearts of all the villagers in Qiaobei."

The crowd of onlookers also suddenly opened their mouths, saying in one go: "Chairman Shen, just accept it..."

Shen Tong couldn't bear it anymore, took the egg with tears in his eyes, and bowed deeply to Mrs. Zhang and the people present.

After the car started, Shen Tong climbed onto the car window, watched a group of people running after the car, and saw him off.Shen Tong poked his head out and kept waving to the crowd. His heart had already taken root in Qiaobei Village.

At this moment, Shen Tong understood that he was dispatched to Qiaobei Village. Although he was far away from the political center, he won the hearts of the people and a group of lovely villagers who really supported him and loved him.From this point alone, Shen Tong also felt that these days and nights in Qiaobei Village were very worthwhile and unforgettable.

Farewell, Qiaobei Village!Farewell, a group of lovely villagers!

The car was driving unsteadily on the way to the town government. Qin Qihua, who was sitting in the front row, suddenly said, "Shen Tong, it seems that your prestige is very high in Qiaobei Village." While Qin Qihua was speaking, he looked through the rearview mirror Look at Shen Tong.

Shen Tong leaned back on the table and chair, looking at the receding cornfield.When he went to Qiaobei Village, the corn was still a foot-high seedling, but now it is a straw as tall as a person.At this moment, his mind was full of details about life in Qiaobei Village. When Qin Qihua asked him, he didn't answer, but smiled slightly.

Qin Qihua observed Shen Tong, feeling very uncomfortable.He said in his heart: "I have been in the township for almost 20 years, and I am not as prestigious as Shen Tong who has been in the village for two or three months." Seeing that Shen Tong did not speak, he did not ask any more questions, and also looked into the distance...
