Tian Chengcheng and Tian Hengyuan followed the village chief to the village committee.
On the way, Tian Chengcheng gave the six buns that Hu Zi brought back to the village chief and said, "Grandpa, these are what Uncle Hu Zi brought back."
The village chief said, "It would be great if we could sell these buns and get some money. Tell Huzi not to always ask for Aunt Wang's things. It's not easy for them."
"This is what Uncle Huzi saved because he couldn't bear to eat it. Uncle Huzi is so filial."
Tian Chengcheng put into practice the filial piety she had just learned from the old lady.
"All the children in our village are good and filial. Go tell your uncle Huzi that there is no shortage of food at home now. Let him eat well and work hard. He doesn't need to worry about the family affairs."
The village chief said this, but the smile on his face betrayed him.
He was actually relieved in his heart.
The village chief specially came back home to put down the buns before going to the village committee.
The village committee, which was deserted before, is now bustling with activity. Everyone has a happy smile on their face and their voices sound particularly enthusiastic and high-spirited.
"Village chief, hey, Fubao is back. Look at the child, he looks even better after not seeing him for a few days!"
"That's right, Fubao is a lucky child. Just looking at her little face makes me feel good."
"The climate and soil in the city are what nourish people. Look at Fubao. He has only lived outside for a few days and he is already like a city kid."
Everyone gathered around Tian Chengcheng and started praising her.
Tian Chengcheng felt embarrassed by the compliment and smiled back politely, but the smile on her face was almost frozen.
What happened? These people are too enthusiastic towards her!
"Okay, stop praising him. Fubao is almost drowned in your spit! No matter how much you praise him, he's not your child anymore. If you have the time to spare, go do some more work."
Tian Fuhua rushed into the crowd, shouting while carrying Tian Chengcheng on his shoulders and squeezing out of the crowd.
"Oh my, these guys are really good, they have so much strength."
Only after running to the office did Tian Fuhua put Tian Chengcheng down.
Tian Chengcheng was still confused. Riding on the neck of an elder was like this—
So embarrassing!
However, her embarrassed look when she saw Tian Fuhua's tears almost melted his heart, and he couldn't help but pinch her cheek.
"Fubao, are you scared silly?"
Tian Chengcheng looked at him calmly and said, "You scared me. I'm afraid of heights."
"I saw you sitting on your bike without holding the handlebars, looking quite happy. You're so brave, how come you're afraid of heights?" Tian Fuhua obviously didn't believe him. "Did you bring anything delicious for uncle?"
Tian Chengcheng really wanted to roll her eyes at him, but after thinking it over she held back.
He took out a few pieces of candy from his pocket and threw them to him, "Here, here you go."
Tian Fuhua didn't hesitate and directly peeled a piece and put it in his mouth, and put the rest in his pocket. "Candy is still delicious, so sweet. Thank you Fubao."
"You're welcome." Tian Chengcheng replied with a forced smile and asked, "What's wrong with those uncles and aunts outside? Why are they so enthusiastic towards me?"
She really felt it was a bit strange. He hadn't been home for just a few days, so even if he missed her, it wouldn't be so exaggerated!
"Please beg me quickly and I will help you later." Tian Fuhua said.
This time, Tian Chengcheng rolled her eyes rudely, looked at Guo Hongchang next to her, and stuffed a small box of chocolates into his hand.
"Uncle Guo, what's going on?"
Tian Fuhua got anxious when he saw this and quickly went over to grab hold of him.
"Fubao, it's not nice of you to be so partial. Am I not nice to you? Why is his chocolate and mine fruit candy?"
"Because I think you like to eat fruit candies." Tian Chengcheng showed her small white teeth, without any guilt at all.
I will never tell him that it’s because chocolate is expensive.
Guo Hongchang is the person she wants to help, so of course his treatment is different.
"Do you think I believe what you say? It's not nice for children to lie."
"I'm serious." Tian Chengcheng said, pushing him aside with her little hand and continuing to question Guo Hongchang.
Guo Hongchang ate a chocolate bean, and his big eyes behind the lenses were full of smiles.
"It might be about the electricity. A few days ago, Xinxin said she saw people in the city using electric lights, so she suggested to the village chief that every household in the village should also have electric lights so that they can still do things at night. However, the village has limited funds, so everyone thought of asking you to pay part of the money first and then paying you back when they have more money."
Because the first batch of wages for the workers was paid by Fubao, this matter somehow became known to everyone.
So when it came to the electricity issue, everyone agreed to let her pay the money first.
Tian Chengcheng understood.
This is someone else's good deed, and she pays for it!
Alas! It must be no good that Tian Xin is thinking about her.
However, providing electricity to the entire village is a major benefit to the people, so she did not refuse. She just regarded it as a reluctant act to help Tian Xin record a credit, and maybe she could even gain some experience.
After learning of her decision, the system excitedly said, "Host, this is a great thing. You will definitely gain a lot of experience."
"Just be happy yourself, don't tell me. I'm unhappy anyway." Tian Chengcheng retorted directly and closed the call with the system.
She accidentally discovered the blocking function, which allowed her to cut off communication at any time if she didn't want to listen to the system's nonsense.
I feel so good!
The despised system: "...Oh, I'm doing this for your own good. How can you treat me so cruelly? Never mind. For the sake of the huge amount of experience I'm about to gain, let's be happy for a while."
After knowing the whole story, when the village chief came to discuss the idea of advancing money to provide electricity to every household, Tian Chengcheng agreed immediately.
"Of course, how much does it cost?"
She also had to set aside some money to build a primary school in the village, and construction had to start as soon as possible, otherwise it would be too late.
"I went to the town for consultation. Every household only needs to buy an electricity meter and install the wiring at home. They will take care of the outside affairs." The village chief was very happy to see that they agreed so readily.
Although Tian Chengcheng didn't know the prices at the time, she knew that the electricity meter and cables added up to a considerable amount.
There are more than a hundred households in the village. She silently calculated her own small treasury and was afraid that she would be nervous.
The village chief paused, feeling a little reluctant to speak, but for the sake of the village's welfare, he had no choice but to thicken his face and said, "I calculated that the next family would cost about 35 yuan. If that's the case, our village will get almost 4,000 yuan."
Four thousand yuan is not a small amount of money, and the village chief felt guilty when he said it out loud.
But he had no choice.
Thirty-five dollars a family is something even his family can't afford, let alone other families.
Hearing this number, Tian Chengcheng breathed a sigh of relief silently. Fortunately, it was okay. Her heart was at ease.
However, when she saw the people outside craning their necks, she did not speak easily.
She could take out four thousand yuan, but she would not show off her wealth. Today, she took out four thousand yuan easily. Those people might think that she was very rich and would continue to covet her little treasury, which would cause her endless troubles later.
"I don't have that much money. I'll go ask Aunt Wan tomorrow if she can lend us some." Tian Chengcheng said.
