On the first day of the Lunar New Year, everything starts anew.
Hushan Village is bustling with people going to the temple to burn incense, going to the market, and calling friends to play cards and drink.
But on the first day of the new year, the Gu family experienced a separation.
Because Han Zhiyuan and Cheng Suqing are leaving.
"Brother Han, Sister Cheng, can you play with me for a few more days?"
Gu Daqiang stood at the door, trying to keep him sincerely and reluctantly.
Han Zhiyuan sighed, "The New Year has passed, and there are still many things to do at home, so I won't bother you any more. When you have more free time later, you are welcome to bring your family to Jincheng."
In fact, for the old couple, it is already very precious to be able to take out three days to make this trip.
Given their status, they have a lot of personal connections and relationships to maintain, and since Cheng Suqing works in a hospital, holidays are even more rare. We are content to be able to spend a lively New Year together here.
Last night, the old couple set off fireworks and firecrackers by themselves for the first time in a long time, and they were laughing like children!
Another thing is that one should also be tactful. The Gu family is not without relatives, and they have to visit each other during the New Year. How can they live with so many people staying in their homes?
In the courtyard, Han Zhiyuan and Gu Daqiang were smoking and chatting, Cheng Suqing and Jiang Sao Sao were holding hands and chattering, Huo Qianli was talking on the phone, Gu Haitao was squatting on the side feeling quite lost, and there were only Xiao Yao and the other two, carrying their luggage, looking as if they had lost all hope in life.
After planning for so long and coming all the way here, not only did I get to be "humiliated", but I also only stayed for one full day?
But Huo Qianli's words silenced them again, "If you have the time, why don't you go back to your village and think of a way to build relationships with the villagers?"
A minute later, Huo Qianli put down his phone and said with a smile, "Teacher, Master's wife, the car will be here soon."
This time on the way back to Jincheng, Huo Qianli couldn't bear to let the two elders squeeze on the bus again, so he gritted his teeth and contacted a van, which paid a "sky-high price" of 500 yuan to take them directly to Jincheng.
Including the driver, there are seven people in total, just right.
Yes, Huo Qianli also had to leave. First, as mentioned just now, he wanted to leave some time for the Gu family to visit relatives. Second, while escorting the two elders, he would also go to Jincheng to wish Professor He and Xia Wanqing a happy new year.
The present status of Hushan Village is thanks to them. We should be grateful as human beings.
The van rumbled over, and everyone waved goodbye to the Gu family of three, made sincere promises for the future, and then set off.
Because it was the first day of the Lunar New Year, Huo Qianli gave the driver an extra red envelope of 18 yuan. The driver was all smiles, drove attentively throughout the journey, and tactfully didn't say much.
Xiao Yao turned his head and looked back, watching Hushan Village getting farther and farther away, and said with emotion: "Old Huo has worked hard in the past six months, but finally achieved remarkable results. From now on, we can sit back and wait for the results at ease!"
Huo Qianli smiled and said, "It's not that easy. There are still many things to deal with."
"Fake!" Xiao Yao pouted. "You have already planted the herbs, and there are experts from the pharmaceutical company stationed here to give guidance. You just need to wait for the harvest and then achieve great success. What else can you do?"
Huo Qianli shook his head, "Really, I'm not kidding."
Then he told everyone the story of Gu Gang and Xu Yanting, starting from the domestic violence when they first entered the village and ending with Gu Gang throwing a tantrum at the village committee. In between, he also included the story of how he led people to rescue Brother Hu and his group overnight.
Huo Qianli said seriously: "So I think that the development of the countryside cannot only be considered from an economic perspective. The progress of rural civilization is also something that our village cadres must think about and plan for, otherwise we will always be lame."
Lao Zhou was puzzled and asked, "This is just a matter of behavior and habits. Can't we just make a hard rule?"
"I think so, but in reality, it's no easier than getting rich!"
Huo Qianli sighed and told them how his three proposals at the village committee meeting a few years ago all failed, and even the simplest centralized garbage disposal could not be implemented.
"Old Huo, you are..." Xiao Yao was about to blurt out something, but suddenly glanced at Han Zhiyuan and slowed down his tone. "Aren't you a little too radical? It is said that people know etiquette when they have enough food and clothing. The villagers of Hushan Village are still so poor, and you are telling them to be clean, civilized and law-abiding. Isn't that a bit too far-fetched?"
Old Yang also said gloomily: "I also think that we should make money first. Once we have made enough money and have more communication with the outside world, the things you are worried about will naturally get better."
He murmured to himself that the province mainly measured economic indicators, so perhaps it was not worth the effort to promote civilization.
However, due to Han Zhiyuan's presence, he did not say it out loud.
Huo Qianli smiled and said, "Didn't I get the money?"
Xiao Yao, Lao Zhou, Lao Yang:.......
MD, so angry!
I really want to hit someone!
"I agree with Qianli's idea."
Han Zhiyuan, who had been silent the whole time, made his point clear as soon as he spoke, "If you don't think ahead, you'll have immediate worries. When a village develops to a certain level, it needs to achieve coordination among the system, organization, culture, and economy. If only one side excels, it won't last long."
He turned his head and looked at Xiao Yao and the other two. "The same landmines that you have encountered before will also be encountered by you in the future. If you watch what he does and think ahead and plan early, won't you be able to save a lot of trouble? You are hesitant and timid. You are a good young man living a decadent life. Don't tell others that I taught you so when you go out!"
Xiao Yao and the other two did not dare to resist at all and just agreed meekly.
The words came out as soon as the lips touched, simple;
