Sang Mianmian's growth journey can be described as smooth sailing.
Born into a wealthy family, pampered by her parents, and loved by her relatives, she could easily be called a favored daughter of heaven.
But this woman, who was born into such privilege, chose the most difficult path in politics.
After graduating from university.
With the help of her uncle, Sang Mianmian went to a small mountain village not far from Kyoto and became a college student village official.
Sang Mianmian did not arrogantly claim that she did not need her family's support.
The educational philosophy she received from a young age was that connections are an advantage.
Her uncle also knew deeply about her desire to do something practical. Although the village was not far from the capital, it was indeed very poor and needed help.
"Secretary Sang, I've cooked some stew at home. I'll bring you a bowl later."
Sang Mianmian waved her hand with a gentle smile: "Aunt Sun, I don't need it. Let Gou Shengzi have a few more pieces."
She smiled all the way back to her dormitory, but once there, her face fell and she let out a deep sigh.
This Dayue Village is located deep in the mountains. The people are very simple and honest, but they are also really poor.
She's been here for over a month now. Besides learning about the village's situation, she just wanders around trying to find some ways for the villagers to make money.
Although Xie's godfather was rich and had said more than once that he wanted to donate money, Sang Mianmian was very tempted, but she still refused rationally.
Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.
Besides, she can't possibly rely on her family for everything, can she?
"So sweet~ Your smile is so sweet~"
My phone rang.
"Hello." Sang Mianmian answered the phone.
"Sweetie, have you missed me?"
"I've thought about it," Sang Mianmian replied with a perfunctory smile.
Across from her was her boyfriend, a junior in the physical education department. He was warm, cheerful, and, most importantly, handsome.
His appearance on the court was particularly captivating, exuding hormones, which led Sang Mianmian to fall in love with him at first sight and pursue him passionately.
But...
While at school, she would be very willing to have a boyfriend to relieve the fatigue of studying.
But at this point, she started to get a little impatient.
She gave her boyfriend a few perfunctory replies, hung up the phone, threw her phone on the bed, rubbed her face, and felt extremely frustrated.
"Ding-dong~"
The phone rang again.
Sang Mianmian picked it up listlessly, unlocked it, glanced at it, and sat up abruptly after seeing the sender's name.
Liu Xiaotian!
It was that bastard Liu Xiaotian!
Mentioning this name makes Sang Mianmian grit her teeth in anger.
Five years ago.
That bastard caught her off guard when she was about to leave, not only throwing her into a panic but also stealing her first kiss.
God knows, if that bastard hadn't dodged so quickly, she could have knocked his teeth out on the spot.
What's most outrageous is that this person has been gone for five years, during which time he only sent text messages and made phone calls, and never even showed his face.
In the last two years, it's gotten even worse; they've stopped even sending text messages and making phone calls.
Thinking of this, Sang Mianmian moved her finger and simply blocked the person.
She lay back down and continued to consider feasible policies.
In recent years, with the country's vigorous development of the economy, the economic level of the people has improved rapidly, and their requirements for the quality of life have also become higher and higher.
As a result, people became richer.
But that only applies to a small number of people. In many remote villages, people still struggle to get enough to eat and rarely get to eat meat more than a few times a year.
The village where Sang Mianmian was assigned was in this situation; it was very close to Beijing, but deep in the mountains.
Every time I go to town, I have to cross three mountains.
I wanted to sell some local mountain products, but they're not as famous as those from Northeast China, and the scale isn't large enough.
Transportation has become a problem for those who want to grow greenhouse vegetables.
Therefore, Sang Mianmian wanted to first help the village make money, and then build roads, so that everything would be available.
Money, money, money!
Ultimately, it all comes down to making money!
She's having a brainstorming session.
The incessant phone rang again.
"Hey~"
"My dear daughter~"
"mom?"
Sang Mianmian sat up abruptly. "Why did you suddenly call me?"
"You and Dad are back?"
"No, no." Bu Ling laughed on the other end of the phone, "It's because Xiao Tian couldn't get through to you that he called me."
"Mom, whose mother are you anyway?" Sang Mianmian complained, "Why do you always favor him?"
“Oh my daughter, you have no idea how handsome Xiaotian has become. How can you blame his mother?” Buling said righteously.
Sang Mianmian pouted: "He's not as good-looking as my dad."
"Tsk~ Hard to say, you know, there are two styles?" Bling lowered her voice to explain to her daughter: "They're better looking than all the boyfriends you've ever had."
"Really?" Sang Mianmian asked skeptically, "I don't believe it!"
"Hey, you brat, believe it or not!"
"Remember to call Xiaotian back, bye!"
Before Sang Mianmian could react, he slammed down the phone.
Sang Mianmian stared at her phone for a long time before awkwardly putting it down.
She didn't know what was wrong with her, but she just felt awkward and didn't want to talk to Liu Xiaotian.
A short while later, that annoying ringtone came again.
Sang Mianmian stared for a moment before answering the phone: "Hello."
"Mianmian." A clear and pleasant voice came from the other end of the phone.
Sang Mianmian silently prepared herself mentally, then asked fiercely, "What?"
Hehe~
"What are you laughing at?" Sang Mianmian's tone was particularly unpleasant.
"It's nothing," Liu Xiaotian's serious voice came through, "I just missed you."
Sang Mianmian's heart suddenly softened. "Hmph~"
