Chapter 105 Xinmin Village
"It's just that the people in the village are used to burying their ancestors together, and they hope that we and our descendants will not be separated even after death."
"So, we simply communicated with the brigade and, at the cost of rebuilding the ancestral hall, set aside a portion of the hill behind the ancestral hall as a new cemetery for our two families."
"I heard that the elders of the two families in the village worked hard for a long time to make it happen."
"Then, Lin Village also belongs to the Xinmin Brigade?" An Songyu asked with a little hesitation.
An Jianning shook his head slightly: "Although Jiangcun and Lincun are adjacent to each other, they are actually completely unrelated."
Seeing An Songyu and the others' eyes widen instantly, the smile on An Jianning's face deepened.
But before she could speak, An Jianjia spoke first:
“It is because of this demolition that the two villages seem to be bound together.”
"In fact, Jiangcun and Lincun are directly under the jurisdiction of two brigades."
"Their Lin Village is called Xinqiao Brigade."
"It's one of the nearest villages on the edge of Rongdi."
"But Lin Village is the village farthest from Rongdi in the entire Xinqiao Brigade."
"Now that everything has been demolished, the Xinqiao Brigade no longer exists."
"As for our Jiang Village, it belongs to the Xinmin Brigade."
"The entire Xinmin Brigade is composed of nine member groups."
"Our Jiang Village is the closest to Rongdi, and should be called Xinmin No. 1 Community."
"Unlike Xinqiao Brigade, our Xinmin No. 1 Village was the first village to be demolished by the Xinmin Brigade."
“It is also the only village being demolished now.”
"So now, we are in the Xinmin Brigade?" An Songyu looked outside the ancestral hall.
They did see quite a few strangers on their way here just now.
The way they looked at the group of people was so envious that they almost burst out.
But An Songyu has seen such looks many times recently and had never thought of this.
An Jianjia nodded: "Our surnames An and Jiang are actually big surnames in the Xinmin Brigade."
"I heard that the land where we lived in Jiang Village was not suitable for human habitation because it was low-lying and had many rotten ponds."
"It was the ancestors of the Jiang family who led people to open it up."
"Later, seeing that there were more people who could be supported there, some of us with the surname An also moved there."
Speaking of this, An Jianjia also felt a little awkward.
Nowadays, you rarely hear debate about this issue.
But she was still in Jiangcun during those years.
Almost every major event during the Chinese New Year or other festivals.
As long as the Jiang and An families are together, such old stories have been repeated many times.
An Songyu has been back to the village for a short time and has never heard of such a statement.
However, An Jianjia didn't want to say much, so he continued with the original topic: "So the ancestral halls of our two surnames have been here in the brigade since they were rebuilt."
"It's just that this time our village was demolished and there was another additional resettlement fee."
"We just renovated the ancestral hall after discussing with the brigade and the elders of the clan."
“Even the cemetery in the back didn’t exist before.”
"But the location of the ancestral hall originally has a lot of space."
"After we divide up the cemetery this time, they will be able to be buried there in the future, and no one will object."
The ancestral halls of the two surnames in Anjiang were built almost adjacent to each other.
It is also surrounded by a not-too-high hill.
Moreover, in addition to the ancestral halls of the An and Jiang families, there seem to be other surnames around.
However, compared with the Anjiang two-family ancestral hall which has just been renovated and expanded, their presence is almost non-existent.
The small hill behind the ancestral halls of the two surnames was previously empty.
Nowadays, the part right behind the ancestral halls of the two surnames has been divided into the new cemetery for the Jiang and An surnames.
It seems that An Songyu and her sisters are quite curious about the Xinmin Brigade.
An Jianning simply took a few people to check out the situation nearby.
Although the Jiang'an and An's ancestral halls are a bit remote, the brigade headquarters can be seen after walking along the obviously newly built road for a while.
In addition, there are brigade primary schools, etc.
But compared to the prosperous Jiangcun Street, this place does have the tranquility of a small village.
There is only one store, a medium-sized grocery store.
When An Jianning took An Songyu and others to buy water, someone asked them if they came from Jiangcun.
Even at the Xinmin Brigade headquarters, there was no one who was not familiar with the people coming and going.
Although Jiang Village belongs to the Xinmin Brigade, most villagers have hardly ever been to the villages inside.
An Jianning's generation was not so bad, as among the friends they grew up with, there were always a few from the same team.
Even when I was a child, I went to elementary school in Xinmin Brigade.
As for the younger generation, not to mention An Songyu and his two brothers and sisters, who all grew up in the city.
Even An Songyue and his sister, who grew up in the village, chose a place with better educational conditions.
Instead of continuing to travel back and forth between Xinmin Brigade.
Night was almost falling.
An Jianping and others, who had been busy on the mountain for almost the entire day, finally came down from the mountain.
The people of Jiangcun, who had accomplished this great task, left the brigade headquarters together.
Seeing five cars driving out together, many people in the group felt extremely complicated.
This is simply a blessing from heaven.
It’s really a good deal for those people in Jiangcun.
Compared to most people who have not moved out of Jiangcun, An Songyu and his group are in more trouble.
After returning to the village, they could only say hello briefly to the people they knew before heading back to the city.
After being dropped off by An Jianan at the entrance to the family quarters, An Jianping could not help but bring it up again:
"I think our family needs to buy a car, too."
This time, Bi Lizhu had no intention of objecting at all.
In the evening, the whole family finally finished their work and gathered together again.
The village committee has already reminded us in the car today.
Regarding the use of village public resources to establish a logistics company, a conclusion must be reached as soon as possible.
After all, if you really want to set up a logistics company, there are still a lot of things to do.
Not now that most people are still in the village.
Wait until everyone really moves out.
It is really not that convenient to get everyone together at once.
In fact, the whole family already had some ideas about this matter.
After the meeting in Jiangcun, An Songyu came back directly and told his family.
It’s just that they haven’t filled out the opinion form yet.
Now that it was distributed to everyone, including Anshun and the two elderly people, they all filled it out without hesitation.
Wait until all the opinions are returned to An Songyu.
Seeing everyone agree, An Songyu was not surprised at all.
The next morning, An Songyu and Yuan Qionghua met to send both sides' opinions back to the village.
