Chapter 726 Good News
After Mr. Mai and Mr. Xu left, Jiang Xia asked Zhou Zhou and Zhou Ying while cleaning: "Do you want to go to Beijing City after the closing ceremony, or do you want to go to Beijing City on the fifth or sixth day of the New Year?"
Zhou Ying: "Let's go during the holidays!"
She can't wait!
Zhou Zhou asked: "Is there any difference? Which time is more convenient for little aunt?"
When Zhou Zhou answers questions like this, he always thinks more about it and is a very considerate child.
Jiang Xia smiled and said, "Any time is convenient for me, depending on what you like. If you go before the New Year, you can only play for three days and then come back. If you go after the New Year, you can play until your school starts."
They don’t know yet when school will start, but based on past experience, it will either start on the twelfth day of the first lunar month or after the Lantern Festival.
Wouldn't that mean I can play in Beijing for many days?
Zhou Ying immediately changed her tone: "After the New Year!"
Anyway, it’s fun to be in the village before the New Year.
By then, people from several villages will pull big nets into the sea, and it will be very lively.
Before the Chinese New Year, every household makes rice cakes, cloud cakes, tea cakes, fried oil corners, sugar rings, and oil cakes... anyway, they make a lot of delicious food.
She has already made an agreement with her friends in the village that when it is their turn to make something delicious, they will go to their house to eat!
You can go to different friends’ homes to eat every day.
Zhou Zhou heard this and said, "Then let's go after the New Year."
Zhou Chenglei and Zhou Chengsen were washing dishes. "Second brother, when are you going to visit Comrade Ruan Tang?"
Zhou Chengsen: "On the twenty-eighth day of the lunar year, I will accompany her back to Beijing and pay her a visit."
Although Ruan Tang disagreed, Zhou Chengsen knew that she was worried that he would be embarrassed by her family.
But Zhou Chengsen is not afraid of being embarrassed. Being embarrassed is also because they love Ruan Tang.
Compared with the possible embarrassment, he cared more about her feelings. She cared so much about him, and he would not allow himself to be inadequate in any way.
Besides, Ruan Tang’s marriage report probably won’t be approved so quickly.
In addition to filing a marriage report, they also have to file a relationship report.
Moreover, you have to be in love for more than half a year before you can file a marriage report.
If he didn't meet her parents as soon as possible, would he have to be in a relationship with her secretly for more than half a year? He couldn't do such a thing.
Zhou Chenglei nodded but did not comment.
Zhou Chengsen added: "Please help me collect those mussels. I won't be back until New Year's Eve."
Zhou Chenglei: “No problem.”
Normally he is in Jing City, and his second and eldest brothers help him deal with everything at the fishery and factory here. Now he is just helping out a little.
*The next day, Zhou Chengsen returned to work. As soon as he sat down in the office, someone came to his door.
Seeing the person coming, he stood up in surprise: "Mr. Mai, why are you here?"
Mr. Mai smiled and said, "I plan to fund the construction of a highway from your village dock to the city, expand your village dock, and donate to build two primary school teaching buildings and establish a middle school."
Of course, that road is not from the village dock to the city, strictly speaking it is from the granddaughter's home to the city.
Zhou Chengsen: “…”
*At ten o'clock in the morning, the village chief Zhou Bingqiang received a message from the brigade, asking him to lead the villagers to improve the sanitation of the village and avoid fruit peels and garbage everywhere, so as to welcome the big boss from Hong Kong Island who came to donate money to build roads and schools.
As soon as Zhou Bingqiang received the notice from the brigade, he ran home excitedly to get the gong.
Zhou Bingqiang's wife asked, "What are you doing with the gong? What news do you want to tell everyone?"
Zhou Bingqiang said excitedly: "There is a big boss from Hong Kong Island who is coming to our village to build roads and expand the wharf, and also to donate to build a primary school and a middle school! I will notify the villagers right away and ask everyone to clean up the wharf and the paths in the village, so that the boss won't be scared away when he sees our village is so dirty!"
Zhou Bingqiang's wife was surprised when she heard this and said, "Why would a boss from Hong Kong Island come to our village to build a road? Do they have so much money that they don't know where to spend it?"
Her first thought was which fool would do such a stupid thing? Is he stupid and has a lot of money?
Zhou Bingqiang: "The big bosses over there like to come back to the mainland to build roads and schools. They are doing good deeds! What do you know? Hurry up and take a broom and clean up the dock! Don't let the dock smell of fish and dead fish!"
Zhou Bingqiang's wife: "I'm busy! Please use the gongs and drums to notify others to clean up!"
Zhou Bingqiang: "I am the village chief, and you are my wife. Shouldn't you take the lead?"
Zhou Bingqiang's wife pursed her lips and said, "So what if I'm the village chief's wife? I don't get any good things, but I have to take the lead in all the hard work! Don't bother me, do it yourself if you want to! I don't have time!"
Zhou Bingqiang was very disappointed: "I said you are short-sighted, but you don't admit it! Do you know what good it would be for us if that big boss really came to our village to build roads, docks and donate schools?"
"What's the benefit?"
Zhou Bingqiang whispered, "This is my achievement as village chief! If it really succeeds, how much respect will the villagers have for me in the future? I might be able to be promoted to a town cadre with this!"
Zhou Bingqiang's wife didn't expect this benefit. She turned around and looked for a broom: "I'll go sweep now. I'll call other people to sweep. I guarantee it will be clean! Not even a leaf! You should also hurry up and take the gong and drum to notify others!"
Seeing that she understood, Zhou Bingqiang quickly took the gong and ran out while beating it: "Attention, villagers! We have big news now! Good news to announce! A boss from Hong Kong Island..."
Zhou Bingqiang's wife found a big broom, the kind made of bamboo.
She took a broom and a bamboo dustpan and ran out. When she passed by Jiang Xia's house, she saw Zhou's mother sitting there feeding the triplets. She walked into the yard and said, "Mrs. Yongfu, go sweep the streets! Bingqiang has found a boss from Hong Kong Island to come to our village to build roads, docks, and schools. The big boss will come to inspect in the afternoon. Everyone in the village needs to go and clean the docks and streets. You should go quickly too!"
Zhou's mother has heard what Zhou Bingqiang said. This is a good thing and she should have participated. However, the old man and A Lei went out to sea, and Jiang Xia went to the factory. How could she have time to look after the children?
"I am taking care of my grandson now, so I don't have time to clean the dock. I will sweep the path near my home later."
Zhou Bingqiang's wife: "Whose family doesn't need to take care of grandchildren? You are not the only grandmother! Let me tell you! This is a great thing! A great thing that will benefit the villagers! My husband finally persuaded that big boss from Hong Kong Island to come to our village for inspection! If your family doesn't send people out to clean up, resulting in insufficient manpower and the dock is not cleaned up, then the big boss will go to other villages to build roads, docks, and schools! You will be the biggest sinner in the village! Hurry up, every family must send someone to clean up! If you don't go, you can find a big boss from Hong Kong Island to come and build the road! Doesn't your family know a lot of big bosses from Hong Kong Island?"
Zhou Bingqiang's wife walked away after saying this. She just came to show off and show off her power as a "government wife".
But she also had to urge everyone to clean the dock well, and had no time to talk to Zhou's mother.
Thank you for your blessings, love you (^з^)-☆
Also, I’m going back to my hometown to celebrate the holidays today, so I don’t have time to write two chapters. I’ll make up for it tomorrow!
