Tiger Mountain Village, a provincial-level poverty-stricken village, had worn out three successive poverty alleviation cadres, yet it still maintained a stagnant attitude.
After a continuous ...
Mother Jiang looked at her daughter, a trace of heartache flashed in her eyes, "You must be tired, come and have a drink of water and rest for a while."
......
"Are you tired? Come and have a drink of water and take a rest!"
Gu Chengrong, who was sitting in the yard, watched his grandson come home from school and stood up with a concerned look on his face.
"Not tired! I'm going out to play!" The child shook his hands, threw his schoolbag on the table, and ran out.
Gu Chengrong chased after him and shouted, "What do you want to eat tonight?"
“Twice-cooked pork!”
The voice floated over, Gu Chengrong frowned and cursed, "I shouldn't have asked! You want to eat meat every meal, what kind of family is that?"
"I cut a pound of meat the day before yesterday, and I still have half a pound left to marinate. I'll cut two ounces of it and stir-fry it tonight. The baby is growing, so how can he live without meat?"
Gu Chengrong's wife came out of the house muttering, looking at Gu Chengrong, "Are you hungry? I'll heat up some food for you."
Gu Chengrong shook his head.
"You didn't eat anything at noon, and it's time for dinner now."
"So, it's time for dinner, why are you still so hot?"
Gu Chengrong stood in the yard, looking up at the two silent loudspeakers on the electric poles not far away, and murmured, "It's time to come back!"
......
"It's time to come back!"
Gu Daqiang moved a chair and sat at the gate. In the house behind him, three or five women were pestering his wife to talk about the village's gossip, but they would glance towards the door from time to time.
The sound of a motorcycle was heard, and Gu Daqiang looked in the direction of the sound. At the end of his sight, a motorcycle with three people on board was rumbling towards him.
The people sitting in the car were Gu Haitao and Huo Qianli!
This motorcycle taxi driver is so skilled! He drives so slowly!
Gu Daqiang complained in his mind and simply took two steps forward.
Gu Haitao jumped off the motorcycle and shouted as if to take credit: "Dad! Good news! We have reached an agreement!"
"The pharmaceutical company agreed to cooperate with us, signed an order with us, and directly secured next year's supply!"
"And this year, they are buying the goods from the fields directly at the market price in the provincial capital, which is nearly 30% higher than the price of the drug dealers in town!"
“They also agreed to provide us with fertilizers and film for free!”
"When the time comes, we will send experts to guide us. They say the yield per mu can be greatly increased!"
"Everything that Qianli-ge told us before was true!"
......
"Oh, Sister Liu! I'm telling you, Cadre Huo is back! The deal is done!"
"Really?"
"Really? I was just in Gu Daqiang's house and heard them say it myself!"
"Oh my, that's great! Can I really make money now?"
"That's right! Not only can we make money next year, we can make more this year. The pharmaceutical companies will come directly to buy our goods."
"That's great, that's great! Officer Huo is indeed the God of Literature!"
"That's right! I have to go back quickly. My roommate knows about this and will definitely want to drink a few sips. I'll prepare two more dishes for him!"
"That's right, I hurried back too! Haha!"
......
"Hey, Tieniu's wife, why are you still making a fuss? Go back and cook!"
"No rush. We have some leftovers from lunch. Just heat them up."
"What are we going to eat today? Officer Huo is back! He said he has made a deal for us. From now on, all the herbs we grow will be bought by us. We have a lot of them, and the price is much higher than now!"
"Really? Did you agree?"
"Of course! With Officer Huo in charge, there's nothing impossible! Why don't you go back and prepare two dishes to celebrate!"
The old woman chatted for a few words and then left in a hurry. She had to show off her exclusive news before her other competitors, otherwise she would have waited for so long this afternoon in vain.
"Boss, did you hear that?"
Hearing his wife's excited words, Tie Niu said calmly: "I heard it. It's a big deal. You are so shocked. Go back first. I will sort out this matter."
Seeing his wife walking away, Tie Niu threw away the hoe, jumped on the ground, and waved his fist excitedly!
......
"Sister Yang, what are you doing here right now?"
Jiang's mother, who was sitting under the eaves to get some fresh air, looked at Zhan's mother and spoke in confusion.
The Jiang family and the Zhan family live very close to each other. Ever since Jiang's father passed away, Zhan's mother would often come over to chat when she is free to help her relieve her boredom and help the Jiang family with some work.
"It's okay, it's okay." Mother Zhan smiled and waved her hands. "I was in a hurry to go back to cook, and I came to tell you by the way. Officer Huo is so amazing. He actually went to Jincheng and got the job done. It is said that in the future...Okay, I'm going back first!"
Watching the figure of Zhan's mother going away, Jiang's mother smiled slightly, then sniffed and shouted jokingly: "Qingyue, stop being in a daze, the food is all burnt."
In the kitchen, there was a sudden sound of ping-pong and flurry of activity.
......
"Mother-in-law! I'm hungry! I want to eat twice-cooked pork!"
Gu Chengrong's grandson rushed into the yard, yelling in a hurry. Gu Chengrong glared at him, "Are you going to eat the fried bamboo shoots and meat? You haven't finished your homework yet! All you know is to eat in one day!"
The grandson immediately became timid, and obediently ran to wash his hands, then started doing his homework.
Seeing this scene, Gu Chengrong became even more depressed.
This little thing is not obedient at all. It deliberately puts on this posture because it knows that it is about to eat, and thinks that others can't see it.
If he wasn't my relative, I would have beaten him with a stick.
Thinking of this, he became even more depressed and walked towards the door.
