When Niupitang was taking his father and uncle and brother to swim.
Their uncle was helping to cut trees in the mountains to build a school for the village.
Jianhua and several men from the village carried the cut trees to the foot of the mountain and pulled them to the school on a cart.
The school has been demolished and the foundation has been laid. Chen Hongjun and a dozen bricklayers are working there to draw the wires.
Next to them were piles of red bricks, which were specially approved by the township chief for their village. The village chief took people to the brick kiln factory to bring them back.
There is still one month left before the autumn harvest. Chen Hongjun plans to recruit more people to build the school before the harvest so that the children in their village can continue to study in the winter.
The village chief's wife and several women in the village cooked mung bean soup and brought it in buckets for the workers to drink.
Xiao Mo drank a large bowl and sighed, "The food from our Northeast is still so delicious! The water boiled with mung beans has a sweet taste."
The village chief's wife wiped his sweat off his face and said with a smile, "You like the food we have here, so let Dalin and Jianmin bring some for you every year."
"Auntie, please don't do that. I'll come back when I want to eat. Without the water here, the food won't smell as good as this."
Everyone working here laughed when they heard his words. Xiao Mo Ke was really good at talking. He really was worthy of being a kid from their Yushu Village.
The village head's wife nodded his head and said with a smile, "Okay, I'll save all the fine food for you when you come back to eat."
Xiao Mo smiled and said, "Aunt, I don't like to eat fine grains. I just like to eat two-grain bread and wild vegetables and mushrooms from our mountains."
The village chief's wife scooped him another bowl of mung bean soup, and thought with concern, who would like to eat coarse grains when there are fine grains?
It's because the child is kind-hearted. He said he doesn't like to eat fine grains and prefers to eat two-grain pancakes.
When Xiao An and Xiao Mo returned home, Grandpa Qi had already prepared the meal, including steamed rice, stewed eggplant with beans, and scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
The two men were already hungry after working for a whole morning, so each of them took a large bowl of rice and sat at the table to eat.
Grandpa Qi watched the two brothers eat happily, "I steamed a big pot of rice today, you two should eat more."
Xiao An put an egg in his bowl and said, "Grandpa Qi, you eat too."
"Okay, okay, eat quickly, don't pick it up for me."
Xiao Mo took a few bites of rice and felt less hungry. Then he asked with a smile, "Grandpa Qi, where did you and your old friends go today?"
"We're just walking around. Xiao An, Xiao Mo, when are we going back?"
The two of them burst out laughing when they heard what he said. They wanted to come back when he was not here, but now they want to leave after only being back for a few days.
Grandpa Qi glared at them both, then laughed and sighed, "I am just worried about my business. Your Grandpa Wang and Grandma Wang and I are back.
The braised meat shop and dim sum shop at home cannot be opened. How much money will be lost in this day? ”
It was only when he went to Beijing that he realized how big the gap was between the children in his village and those in the city.
When I came back this time, seeing the children’s clothes and the school environment in the village, I wanted to earn more money and do something for my fellow villagers.
Xiao An advised him, "Grandpa Qi, there is no end to making money. Now that we are back, we should stay here for a while. The school has just started to be built. Xiao Mo and I plan to go back after the main structure is completed."
Grandpa Qi thought for a while and said, "Why don't you two stay here for a while, and I'll go back to Beijing with Jianhua and Dashuan's wife."
The two brothers looked at him speechlessly, thinking of his braised meat shop, they didn’t want to stay there for even a day. Didn’t they know who it was in the first place? I long to come back.
Qi Ye chuckled a few times, then picked up his bowl and continued eating. He ignored the two brothers' opinions. He was going to go back with Jianhua anyway.
After dinner, Grandpa Qi went to wash the dishes, and the two brothers sat in the yard to discuss what to do.
We can't let the old man go back alone. Even though we have Brother Jianhua, he has to take care of Aunt Dashuan, his wife and children. I don't know if he can take care of them all by himself.
Jianmin, Dalin and Fansace have agreed not to come back next year. This year they plan to stay at home for a longer time and go back when school starts.
"Second brother, why don't you accompany Grandpa Qi back first, and I will go back to Beijing with Grandpa Wang, Grandma Wang, Brother Jianmin, Brother Dalin and Brother Xiaofan."
In fact, they can't help much here. Just give the money to the village chief and the principal. With them watching over it, nothing will go wrong.
But Grandpa Wang and Grandma Wang wanted to stay here for a few more days, so one of them had to stay to keep them company.
Xiao An thought for a moment and said, "Xiao Mo, Erdan from Uncle Hongjun's family, stopped studying after graduating from junior high school.
Although he is a few years younger than me, we often played together when we were young.
I want him to go to Jingshi to set up a stall and sell clothes. What do you think? ”
"Of course! Brother Erdan is very nice to me. When we were still in Yushu Village, I went to their house to play with Sandan and he even gave me food to eat."
Xu An smiled and said, "Okay, I'll go ask Erdan this afternoon if he wants to go with us. If he wants, let him and Grandpa Qi go with Brother Jianhua.
The two of us will stay and help the village build a school, and then go back with Grandpa Wang and Grandma Wang. ”
