I Led the Entire Village out of Poverty and to Prosperity

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 ...

Chapter 83 Parents' Love for Their Son

What's the scariest thing that can happen to a drunk woman?

When I woke up, there was a dishevelled man lying next to me.

What's the scariest thing that can happen to a drunk man?

When I woke up, there was a dishevelled man lying next to me.

When Huo Qianli regained consciousness from his deep sleep, he opened his eyes with a splitting headache, and gradually felt the leg pressing on him. He turned his head stiffly and almost kicked Xiao Yao down.

He got up quietly, put on his clothes, and turned his head to look at Xiao Yao who was sleeping soundly. This scene gave people a somewhat strange feeling.

He tapped his head lightly, stood up and walked out of the room.

After going downstairs, he said hello to Sister Jiang who was busy in the kitchen, scooped a basin of water from the kitchen pot, washed his face carefully, picked up the thermos and poured a cup of hot water, walked out of the door, and saw Han Zhiyuan and Cheng Suqing exercising in the yard.

"Teacher, Master's wife, did you sleep well last night?"

Han Zhiyuan smiled and nodded, and Cheng Suqing also smiled and said, "It's fine! I'm used to living in the city, and once I get to the village, it's really quiet at night!"

Huo Qianli smiled and said, "That's true. I heard from the villagers before that some people snore so loudly that it's hard for people in the next room to sleep."

Cheng Suqing thought Huo Qianli was joking and laughed, "It's not that exaggerated!"

Huo Qianli laughed, "Today is New Year's Eve. Teacher and Master's Wife, do you have any ideas? If not, I'll take you for a walk."

Han Zhiyuan was about to nod when Cheng Suqing smiled and said, "You guys go shopping. I'll just go for a walk with your village chief's wife."

Seeing the two men's suspicious looks, Cheng Suqing frowned, "You guys are going to starve at noon!"

The two people who only ate and did nothing were speechless in an instant.

As they were talking, Gu Daqiang's bald head appeared from behind the house, holding a basket in his hand. He smiled when he saw the three of them and said, "I drank some wine yesterday, so I just went to the field to pick some pea tips and made some soup!"

Cheng Suqing wanted to help, but was repeatedly rejected by Gu Daqiang. She carried the things into the kitchen and left them to her wife without caring about them anymore.

The breakfast table was still unusually rich. Yesterday's sausages, bacon, and cold dishes were all prepared and served. Then two hot dishes, one meat and one vegetable, were newly cooked. In the middle of the table was a large pot of pea tip soup that was just boiled in water.

The people, who were a little tired at first, drank a bowl of pea tip soup with the fragrance of the green fields to soothe their drunken stomachs;

Then I drank two bowls of thick and sweet firewood porridge, which drove out the alcohol in my body and made me feel so comfortable that my pores opened up.

It's that easy to revive with full health.

After dinner, Huo Qianli, Gu Daqiang and Gu Haitao accompanied Han Zhiyuan and three classmates to walk around the village to see the green mountains, the winding rivers, and the human nature.

After the men left, Cheng Suqing went back to her room, took out a nutritious gift box from the box, and went out with Sister Jiang smiling, heading for Jiang Qingyue's home.

The things for the Gu family have already been delivered. These gift boxes were prepared extra, a full box. If there is a need, they can be given to someone. If not, they can be left to Huo Qianli. In the future, he won't have to pay for the gifts himself. They come in handy now.

The first thing Cheng Suqing saw when she arrived outside Jiang's house was the neatly stacked firewood at the base of the wall and the clean courtyard without a single weed, and she nodded slightly.

After all, Mrs. Jiang is the wife of the village chief. Although her interpersonal skills cannot compare with Han Zhiyuan and his wife, they are good enough in this village.

He led Cheng Suqing in, and with a smile introduced her identity to Jiang Qingyue and Jiang's mother who came out to greet her, and then said that he had come to visit her specially to thank Jiang Qingyue for her help to Huo Qianli.

Cheng Suqing smiled and handed over the gift box. She exchanged some pleasantries with Jiang's mother and Jiang Qingyue, who were flattered. After chatting for a few words, she smiled and said, "Qingyue, can you walk with Auntie?"

Jiang Qingyue was stunned for a moment, and Sister Jiang smiled and waved her hand, "Go ahead, I want to learn how to make jelly from your mother, so I don't have time."

"Go ahead and ask Miss Cheng for advice." Jiang's mother also said with a smile.

On the village road in the mountains, Jiang Qingyue and Cheng Suqing were walking and talking and laughing. An old man who was not dressed ostentatiously but was very elegant, and a girl who was dressed simply but was generous and calm. The atmosphere was not as tense as is common in idol dramas.

After walking for a while, Cheng Suqing stopped to rest and looked at Jiang Qingyue. She was plain-faced but beautiful, she was wearing cloth shoes and old clothes but had no inferiority complex, she lived in a remote place but had good conversation. The more she looked, the happier she became.

She took Jiang Qingyue's hand and froze for a moment. Then her nose felt sore. "What a good kid."

Jiang Qingyue smiled but said nothing.

"Silly child, you should continue to study! The government has student loans, and you can pay them back slowly after you get a job. How can you give up your future because of that? Why would you deliberately hand in a blank paper for the college entrance examination?"

Jiang Qingyue was shocked when she heard this. This was the first time she heard someone in the village guess this fact.

She shook her head. "My mother is not in good health and needs someone to take care of her. My sister still has to go to school. Someone has to earn money to support the family."

Her tone was calm, without revealing a trace of regret, but to those who were around her, it was filled with a sorrow that could not be expressed in words.

Cheng Suqing patted her hands gently. "You are so smart, how can your life be like this! Lao Han is a professor at Shuzhou University. Let him help you make connections so that you can take the adult college entrance examination. How about being classmates with your sister? I will take care of your mother's illness. I am a doctor at Shuzhou People's Hospital and should be able to cure her. Don't worry about the money."
