He is used to weighing the interests. It is not wise to go against such a powerful and resourceful woman like Li Miaomiao. In fact, they didn't have any major grudges, right?
As for his nephew who was sent for reform, to Accountant Wu, his nephew was not as important as his own interests. The most important thing was that this woman, Li Miaomiao, was too difficult to deal with. He always felt that there was something weird about this woman. He couldn't tell what was wrong with her. In short, every time he met her, he couldn't help but feel a sense of fear in his heart.
I didn’t have this feeling before I met Li Miaomiao, but it changed after Li Miaomiao was injured.
"Okay, that's it. Let's have lunch at Comrade Li Miaomiao's place. It's settled."
Secretary Ying and County Magistrate Liang had both spoken, so the other cadres certainly had no objections. They also had a good impression of Li Miaomiao. Although her house was a bit shabby, it was kept clean and tidy, giving a peaceful and comfortable feeling.
The technician from the province was very dissatisfied and didn't want to stay here at all. He felt that Lu Miaomiao was a very difficult and scheming woman, but he had no say in the matter and could only sit there depressed.
Li Miaomiao just pretended not to see his reluctance. A grown man was so petty and timid, and he looked like a mean person at first glance.
"Dear leaders, I will go to the kitchen to help you. You can have some tea and some tea cakes here."
"Comrade Li Miaomiao, go ahead and do your work. Don't worry about us. We can take care of ourselves. But you're busy in the kitchen alone. Do you need our help?"
"No, no, I work very well. It's just a meal and I can prepare it quickly. I don't need your help. You can just take a rest." Li Miaomiao said hurriedly. How could she let the leaders come to the kitchen to help her? She didn't care, but she was afraid that the village chief and Accountant Wu would be trembling with fear.
Secretary Ying and County Magistrate Liang took the baskets and were led by the little guy Pei Yifan to pick vegetables in the vegetable field.
"Old Ying, life is really good now. When I get old and retire, I will go back to the countryside to live in a yard like this and grow flowers and vegetables."
"You are old, and you have a lot of time to wait. Besides, our country is in need of talented people right now. Even an old guy like me is reluctant to retire easily, let alone you who are in the prime of life. You dare not even think about retiring."
"Old Ying, what you said makes sense. I've learned my lesson. For the sake of our country, personal gains and losses are nothing."
Pei Yifan listened to their conversation from the side. Although he was very young, he could roughly understand what they meant. He felt that someone like him would never be able to do it, but he felt a little admiration and yearning.
Secretary Ying saw Pei Yifan tilting his head and looking at him: "Little guy, do you understand what we mean?"
“Grandpa Ying, I can understand, but I don’t quite understand.”
"Oh, what don't you understand?"
"Is our country really so good that it's worth sacrificing everything for it? I don't quite understand."
"Study hard, little one. You'll understand once you've read. Our motherland has been ill for a while and isn't strong enough. It will take the hard work and dedication of several generations to catch up and surpass our enemies. As members of this country, we all have the obligation and responsibility to contribute our own efforts to this goal."
Pei Yifan actually understood what Secretary Ying meant, but for him, the most important thing now is this small family. His greatest wish is for his mother to live a good life. The country has so many people contributing, and he is not the only one who needs it.
However, Pei Yifan did not foolishly say such a selfish idea out loud, but nodded as if he understood.
"Grandpa Ying, I understand. I will study hard and become a useful person."
Secretary Ying and County Magistrate Liang were both very satisfied after hearing this. This was a very talented child, and if he was well trained, he would definitely become a pillar of the country.
"Xiao Fan, judging from your age, you are almost old enough to go to school."
"Yes, Mom plans to send me to school next year, but I'm worried that no one will take care of her at home. There's no school in the village, and I have to go to the county to go to school. This will take up Mom's time even more, and I don't want her to be too tired."
Pei Yifan did not express his thoughts in front of Li Miaomiao. He had such high expectations of her, he could not bear to disappoint his mother, let alone make her worry. However, in front of Secretary Ying and County Magistrate Liang, he had no concerns and Pei Yifan told them what was on his mind.
What a sensible child! Secretary Ying and County Magistrate Liang felt very sympathetic after hearing what the little guy said. Then they thought about the education problem in the village. There must be other children in the village who are the same age as Xiaofan, and they are in the same situation. It is too inconvenient to send them to school in the county town.
It is especially inconvenient for the adults in the family who have to go to work to pick up and drop off their children.
Xiaofan's conditions are relatively good. Comrade Li Miaomiao is very hardworking and capable. The family has a bicycle to pick up and drop off the child, which is just a matter of time and effort. However, other villagers in the village do not have transportation to send the child to school, so it becomes unrealistic and the child can only stay at home.
"Children's education is a big problem."
Secretary Ying said earnestly that he has always attached great importance to this aspect. Only by improving education can the motherland have talented people to take over in the future. There are too many vacancies in all walks of life and lack of talent. He also heard some rumors that some people at the top have suggested resuming the college entrance examination, but this is just a sign and has not been implemented yet. It will take quite some time.
"This is indeed a problem. We have to find a way to solve it. This situation is probably not limited to Fanglin Village. I'll have people investigate other villages and they should be in the same situation."
Originally I went to the countryside because of the soap workshop matter, but now there are new problems to solve.
"Let someone investigate. I want to know the educational situation in each village. Educational issues cannot be ignored. They concern the next generation of our country."
"I'll arrange it when I get back."
When Pei Yifan heard them say this, something flashed quickly in his eyes. If a school could be built in the village, his problem of going to school would be solved. He wouldn't have to go so far to the county town, and he could go to and from school by himself every day without causing trouble for his mother.
"Grandpa Ying, Uncle Liang, are you talking about the school? Can we build a school in our village? The children in the village are all looking forward to going to school. If we had a school, we could learn to read and write like people in the city."
Pei Yifan looked at Secretary Yin and County Magistrate Liang with excitement and anticipation. The little guy's enthusiastic eyes made it impossible for them to say no.
