I've gotten used to it after so many days.

If there is any slight disturbance in the Li family, they will think of the worst.

I wish there would be a quarrel in their family.

The day Li Mingqing came back.

It happened to be the third day of the autumn harvest.

The villagers sat on the ground, exhausted with sore backs and arms.

Xiaohong and Xiaozhe were running on the road happily.

Other children in the village gathered around.

Without thinking, I just followed behind and ran like crazy.

Really having fun.

Old Mrs. Li stood up, brushed off the dirt on her body, and prepared to go home to cook.

Li Dahua grabbed her and said, "What are you doing? How can a mother-in-law cook for her daughter-in-law? Look at Jiaxue, she's dressed so fancy. Just let her cook."

"It's not easy for the two of them to come back once."

"What's there to worry about? They are enjoying themselves in the county town. You really treat Jiaxue as your own daughter."

Old Lady Li disapproved, "You should stop talking. Your daughter-in-law Lin Mei is still here. She must be feeling uncomfortable listening to her."

"What's there to be uncomfortable about? I'm telling the truth."

"Don't worry about my family's affairs."

"Okay, okay, I don't want to bother talking to you. Just do whatever you want."

When Mrs. Li went over, she saw Sun Jiaxue holding food in her hands.

Homemade croquettes.

The others were bought from state-owned hotels.

"I'm thinking about going home and cooking."

"Mom, stop working. I bought some meat and vegetables. The autumn harvest is very tiring. Let's nourish you and dad."

"We have everything at home. Don't waste your money next time you come back."

Li Mingqing said from the side: "Mom, how can you say it's a waste of money? It's ready-made and convenient. I rushed home as soon as I bought it. It's still warm."

"Okay, you're right."

Old Mrs. Li took the things with a smile.

What a coincidence.

Li Mingqing had just returned to the village when Zhou Jiangang brought two people from the county town in the afternoon.

He came to understand the people's sentiments.

When Zhou Jiangang arrived, Li Mingqing was taking Xiaozhe and Xiaohong to catch crabs in the river.

As soon as he saw Li Mingqing, he felt like he saw his savior.

"Ming Qing, I was thinking of looking for you to go to the countryside with me yesterday, but I didn't expect to see you here. It really is God's will."

Hearing this, Li Mingqing almost couldn't help rolling his eyes.

What he said was an exaggeration.

He looked serious just now, but when he saw Li Mingqing, he almost became a fool.

Fortunately, there were only two of us.

Otherwise it would be a huge embarrassment.

"Secretary Zhou, what are you doing?"

"I'm really not used to you calling me Secretary Zhou. Just call me Jiangang."

"That won't do."

Zhou Jiangang looked at the two children in the river and said, "Is this my nephew?"

"Yes, twins."

"You're so awesome, you're even better than others at giving birth."

"But why are you going to the countryside this time? Logically, you don't need to go to the countryside."

"Why not? From the masses, to the masses."

Li Mingqing nodded, agreeing with what he said.

"So along the way, what changes do you think have taken place compared to before?"

"I haven't noticed much change, but you do have electricity here. I heard you had to donate money to get it turned on."

"That's all in the past."

Zhou Jiangang truly felt that he was being wasted in the supply and marketing cooperative.

Such a person should be an official.

Li Mingqing looked at him and, taking advantage of the opportunity, said, "Look at the dirt road below. It turns to mud when it rains and is impossible to walk on. There's a saying that goes, 'If you want to get rich, build roads first.'"

"It makes sense, but it's impossible."

"Why not?"

"Building roads is not easy. It requires manpower, material resources, and financial resources. And let me be honest with you, the financial situation is not as good as you think."

Of course Li Mingqing knew.

In this day and age, it would be strange to have a surplus.

After all, many people find it difficult to even have enough food and warm clothes.

"You only need to pay for the cement or asphalt. As for gravel and stone chips, you won't need much. Five or six truckloads will be enough. There are plenty of gravel on the ground."

"This matter needs to be explained in detail, and the report needs to be approved."

Li Mingqing said: "I am just making a suggestion. As for its implementation, it depends on your ability."

"Brother, it's easy for you to say, but without money nothing can be done."

“It’s definitely not easy.”

He stopped there.

As for whether the subsequent arrangements will work, I don’t know.

Anyway, this road has to be built sooner or later.

This road from the town to the village connects five or six villages.

I believe that the villagers are very willing to come and work.

Zhou Jiangang walked around and said, "I've looked at several villages, but the big-character poster in your Lijia Village is the most correct. Did you write it?"

"It was indeed written by me. The color has faded a bit after a few months."

The team leader and the village chief came over.

Not only did the two of them come over, but they also brought Li Xiangjun and Li Mingfu over.

After all, the two wanted to retire and let their son become a village cadre.

Li Xiangjun and Li Mingfu stood there feeling extremely uncomfortable.

Very uneasy.

The two of them looked at the calm Li Mingqing and felt more and more that they were not cut out for this.

Li Mingqing almost couldn't help laughing when he looked at their legs.

It shakes like a sewing machine.

"Why are you two so nervous?"

"Ming Qing, I don't know either. I really can't control myself. What should I do? I'm embarrassing everyone."

"What are you two afraid of? There's nothing shameful about this."

"This is for a high-ranking official."
