I live in the countryside

Chapter 138 Poverty is the biggest disease (1 more)
Qiao Churan sighed, raised her eyebrows and asked, "Do you have any ideas?"

Zhao Chengming paused, looked at Qiao Churan, and said, "I know, you've become an Internet celebrity now, and your development is getting better and better, but have you ever thought that if you wantonly grow greenhouses, it will destroy the original nature of the village?" Style."

After Qiao Churan's meal, Zhao Chengming continued: "Many things planted in the greenhouse have quick results, and if they develop later, I think it will not be good for the overall natural appearance of Qingxi Village."

Seeing Zhao Chengming's persistence, Qiao Churan smiled, looked over his shoulder at the rocky mountain behind him, pointed to the tallest one, and asked, "Do you know that mountain, because it is shaped like a lion, People in our village call it Lion Mountain, this is the tallest mountain behind the village, when you climb halfway up the mountain, you can see the entire Qingxi Village, have you ever visited it?"

Zhao Chengming didn't know what Qiao Churan meant by saying this, so he muttered, "I'm not here to climb mountains."

Qiao Churan shook his head, and asked again, "Do you know how many families there are in Qingxi Village?"

"263." Zhao Chengming answered quickly this time. He managed Qingxi Village with the village chief, so how could he not know this simple question.

"Then do you know how many impoverished households there are in Qingxi Village, what are the family conditions of these 263 households, how many households are widowed elderly, how many are left-behind children, how many school-age children should be studying in school but now they drop out of school and stay at home. How many households whose tile-roofed houses are about to become dilapidated? How many people have been working outside for many years, but they still can’t even build a brick building. How many families have their children finish junior high school because they can’t afford high school tuition , did not continue to enroll, and went out to work early? Just say that the gravel road under your feet, do you know when it was paved? It was last year, and you know what it was like before it was paved with gravel. status?"

Zhao Chengming choked for a moment. He knew that Qingxi Village had these conditions, but of course he didn't know the exact figures. Hearing Qiao Churan's calm questioning, he instantly felt that all his confidence in coming to Qingxi Village was evaporated.

It was shame to make his cheeks burn, and he understood the meaning of Qiao Churan's words.

The village chief needs to solve the problem of poverty the most.

Qiao Churan shook her head: "Come with me."

Zhao Chengming didn't know what Qiao Churan was going to do, but in this village where he didn't understand the language, a man who spoke Mandarin fluently to him made him subconsciously obey Qiao Churan's wishes.

Qiao Churan didn't do anything, but took Zhao Chengming around a few houses in the village.

"This is Grandma Wei's house. I don't know if you have been here, but you should have heard of Grandma Wei's son. When the children in the village scolded others, they would call him crazy. When the old man frightened the children, he would say that the crazy uncle is here." .”

Zhao Chengming has been here before, but he can’t speak the local dialect, so he asked a neighbor next to Grandma Wei’s house to help translate. He is an outsider, and Grandma Wei was very conflicted, so she didn’t want to say anything at all, and her understanding was limited. The old man is 80 years old and has a son with cerebral palsy. The son is in his forties, but he is as crazy as a child. In order to support his son and himself, the old man has to work in the fields.

Grandma Wei had sharp eyes. When she saw Qiao Churan, she came over with a big smile on her face: "Ranran, are you here? Come in, come in and have a seat."

She said that she wanted La Qiao Churan to come in, and she didn't forget to ask: "My eggs are only a dozen now, you either, hey, I don't know what's going on these two days, there are fewer eggs, are they from the city?" People want to buy again?"

A colleague of Qiao Churan who was pregnant before asked about native eggs. Qiao Churan saw that many people in the village had them, so she helped sell them. Grandma Qiao raised [-] chickens this year, all of which were provided by the Agricultural Economic Society for poor households. For the subsidy obtained after applying, the chicks don't need a penny, and they are given away for free. Among the chicks that Grandma Qiao got, there were twelve hens, which were kept and raised. Now the hens have laid eggs, and there are too many eggs to eat.

After Qiao Churan found out about this situation, she sent her eggs to the provincial capital for sale at the price of local eggs. Although she only earned a few hundred yuan, Grandma Wei still happily regarded Qiao Churan as a benefactor. At one o'clock, I asked Qiao Churan if anyone would buy it, but I was reluctant to eat it.

Zhao Chengming couldn't understand what Grandma Wei and Qiao Churan were saying, but seeing the two talking and laughing like this, he couldn't help being envious.

Sitting at Grandma Wei's house for a while, Zhao Chengming also had a deeper understanding of the situation at Grandma Wei's house.

Qiao Churan said: "Grandma is getting old, and the most worrying thing is her son, but she is 80 years old, she doesn't have much strength, and she has to take care of the fields, otherwise, both mother and son will not be able to survive, you said she needs it most What is it?"

If you tell her that to develop rural tourism in the future, we must protect the original rural environment so that everyone can live a good life. No one can understand this kind of words, and they will only think you are whimsical. Now, the only thing they want to do is It is to survive, to be able to eat and wear warmth, and to have a house that does not leak air.

Zhao Chengming was shocked a lot in his heart, and was speechless for a long time.

Qiao Churan took him to the next house: "This is Uncle Dongchun's house, but you probably haven't seen him before. The husband and wife went to work in Guangzhou when I was young. There are three children in the family. They live with their grandparents and come back once a year. Now they are not close to their children. The two sons have dropped out of school. Uncle Dongchun and his wife have nothing to do, but you let them go home. What about the source of income for the family? "

Zhao Chengming stood in front of the tile-roofed house of Uncle Dongchun's house. The iron gate of the yard was rotten. He could see the scene in the yard. He opened his mouth, but couldn't speak.

He had come and knocked on this door, but had never been able to enter.

"This is Uncle Nalou's house. Their whole family, including their son and wife, are working outside. Only Uncle Nalou and his parents are at home. Because he was working outside the house the year before, he injured his back and can't stand up now. Their house is half-finished. The house was originally intended for the eldest son to prepare for his marriage, but now, because of back injuries and medical treatment, all his wealth has been built in, half of the house has been demolished, and it has become a dilapidated house, so we can only build a shed on top of the half-built house She sheltered people from the wind and rain, and my son's marriage was also lost because of this."

"It was the fourth grandma's house. There were five muddy children in front of the door. They were her great-grandsons. His son, his grandson and his wife are all working outside, but it is not stable. Two grandchildren dropped out of elementary school, and the money they earn all year round is not enough to go outside. The fourth grandma is about the same age as Grandma Wei, but she still has to work in the fields."

"You don't know this little friend." Qiao Churan pulled a dirty child by the side of the square, heard the child sweetly call aunt, asked a word, gave her a candy, Zhao Chengming saw It seems that the little girl's little finger is missing one.

Qiao Churan watched the girl run away, lowered her eyes and said: "When she was more than one year old, her little finger was caught. The family didn't pay attention to it, and they didn't have much money to treat her. When she was found, it was already inflamed and festered. The finger is gone, the children are having fun now, this disease of poverty is a lifetime imprint."

"Look at this village." Qiao Churan stood on the edge of the square, and said to Zhao Chengming, "Pile up the rubbish casually, there is a pile of cow dung on the road, and there is a pile of cow dung on the road. However, everyone’s failure to develop habits is not because they cannot be developed, but in the face of poverty, these things have to be sidelined.”

"I was wrong." Zhao Chengming looked powerless.

Qiao Churan said: "It's not that you are wrong. Your idea is very good, but it is not what Qingxi Village needs most now. Why can Shuiman Village and Hengshan Village develop? Because they first helped the villagers solve the most urgent problems. The problem is food and clothing, getting rid of poverty, the fate that has plagued us for several lifetimes, and everyone can clearly see that this kind of struggle is useful."

Speaking of this, Qiao Churan couldn't help but smiled: "You may not understand the local dialect, so you don't know. In Qingxi Village, there is a saying that a married woman does not enter Qingxi Village, and a married woman does not marry a Qingxi girl. Why, In the final analysis, because of poverty."

Qiao Churan took Zhao Chengming around half of the village, and also brought him to know many families. Finally, he said to the young man who seemed to have been shattered: "Of course not every family in Qingxi Village is like this. Live a good life. I bought a car and a house in the city. My parents are not here, so I don’t want to go back to this village for the rest of my life. It’s too poor here. Except for working, everyone can’t find a way to get ahead. You care about the ecology and the environment. It’s certainly true that we care about the environment and tourism, but the primary concern should be how people can survive and live better.”

"Secondly, things about ecology, environment, and tourism will gradually develop." Qiao Churan said meaningfully. "The change of concept can create sustainable development. You can't even walk the road, you have to run."

Young people, fledglings, still need to exercise.

Qiao Churan couldn't help but sighed in his heart.

Zhao Chengming looked at Qiao Churan, speechless for a long time, but his eyes were on the man not far behind Qiao Churan.

That man was dignified, even though he was dressed in ordinary clothes, he couldn't hide his appearance of being out of place with this defeated small mountain village.

Zhao Chengming naturally knew Qin Muzhou. He had met this person when he came to Qingxi Village, and he knew that it was after he came that the Agricultural Economics and Economics Society of Wuxi Town was drastically reformed, making it what it is today.

Qiao Churan turned her head along, and saw Qin Muzhou standing beside a tree, looking at her gently. Qiao Churan smiled, then turned her head and said to Zhao Mingcheng, "Think about it carefully, maybe your thoughts And the idea is actually very good, but he is not suitable for Qingxi Village today, and when Qingxi Village is suitable for such development depends on when you and I let it reach that opportunity."

After Qiao Churan finished speaking, he stopped talking and went back to find Qin Muzhou.

Qin Muzhou's gaze was on Zhao Chengming, and he naturally knew the predicament this young man was facing, so he didn't say anything, but lowered his head and asked Qiao Churan, "What are you talking about?"

Qiao Churan smiled: "It's hitting the kids."

Qin Muzhou smiled lowly.

kid?I don't even know who the kid is.

What Zhao Chengming was thinking in his heart, Qiao Churan didn't know, he looked at Qin Muzhou: "What are you looking for me for?"

Qin Muzhou said: "It's not that I want to take you to meet someone."

Qiao Churan paused. The last time Qin Muzhou mentioned this matter, she was too busy these days and almost forgot. When she mentioned it suddenly, she immediately realized it and blinked her eyes.

Qin Muzhou said lightly, "Meet an elder."

"Elder?" Qiao Churan chewed the word, then looked at Qin Muzhou's expression, "What elder?"

Qin Muzhou took her hand to go into the car, "I'll know when I see you later."

Qiao Churan immediately refused: "Wait a minute, I'll go back and change."

Qin Muzhou laughed and said, "That's good."

She is very tall. Qiao Churan didn't intend to go out of the village today, so she just put on one casually. Now she wants to go out to meet someone. No matter who it is, she can't go out like this.

He gave Qin Muzhou a blank look, and dragged him back to change his clothes.

Qin Muzhou didn't stop him, and let Qiao Churan toss.

In the car, Qiao Churan reapplied her lipstick in the mirror, "Can't you say it now?"

Qin Muzhou looked at her, and said seriously, "Are you nervous to meet your parents?"

Qiao Churan paused and almost drew the lipstick crookedly, but seeing Qin Muzhou's appearance, he knew that he must have said something to scare her, so he snorted softly: "There's nothing to be nervous about, their sons have become me." people."

Qin Muzhou was delighted to hear these words, "That's true."

But he also explained to Qiao Churan: "Go see my teacher."

Qiao Churan: "?"

　The situations that Ranran said actually happened in reality. Poverty is still a tumor that plagues many people.
