The God of Wealth: Her Top Game of Thrones

Chapter 870 Village Party Secretary

Tang Tang took the roasted sweet potato and responded vaguely, "Well, come back and take a look."

Tang Tang went back to the car first, Tang Yu paid the money, and after everyone was together, Tang Xiao started the car.

This roasted sweet potato was indeed a bit dirty. The slightly burnt skin was covered with sweet potato honey, making it slightly sticky, and there was a lot of grayish-white ash on it.

"Why did the master suddenly buy roasted sweet potatoes?"

Tang Yu took it and didn't care about his own cleanliness at all. Instead, he helped Tang Tang peel the roasted sweet potatoes.

The baked sweet potatoes here are not the selected honey potatoes, but just ordinary big sweet potatoes. They are also baked thoroughly without any honey water.

Therefore, the flesh of these baked sweet potatoes is sometimes sweet and soft, while others are white, dry and powdery, and a little stiff.

However, this is the taste of the roasted sweet potatoes in my childhood.

With a slight gray smell of wood ash, the pale yellow and whitish roasted sweet potatoes are very fragrant when eaten, but they will also choke in the throat like egg yolk.

Tang Tang ate it mouthful by mouthful, and then said, "When I left the orphanage as a child, the first thing I ate was roasted sweet potatoes."

Roasted sweet potatoes were very cheap at that time. Tang Tang could earn 5 cents per piece of pocket money by helping classmates with their homework after school. She saved all the money. The only luxury she had was buying a roasted sweet potato once.

Just as dry and choking, but warm, fragrant, and a little sweet.

Tang Tang gestured for them to eat as well, and put Tang Xiao's aside to save it for him.

A baked sweet potato was not very big, and everyone finished it in no time.

The county town is also not big.

At this moment, the car had only driven for about 40 minutes, and it had already moved away from the center of the county and arrived at the suburbs where Chunyu County and the county were located.

The surrounding scenery became more and more desolate. There were no buildings to be seen, but only some orchards and fields.

We drove farther and farther, until we entered the mountains and even turned from the concrete road into a dirt road.

Tang Tang looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar scenery, and his heart was calm.

She had nothing to think about…well, that was okay.

What Tang Tang was thinking about at this moment was actually Gray's face when he died in her arms.

Pale and transparent, as if it would disappear into the sky and earth in the next second.

He vomited blood and died in her arms. His intermittent last words were like the cry of a nightingale. In the end, no matter how lively a person was, after his death, only a motionless corpse was left.

Later, Tang Tang even cut open his chest with his own hands and took out Gray's heart.

The memory of going to a different time and space was like a bizarre dream. After returning to reality, Tang Tang even occasionally wondered whether it was real.

During this period, there was no news about Gray, and no one knew whether he was dead or alive.

The mysterious Nyarlathotep also disappeared.

Therefore, after dealing with some things, Tang Tang made a decisive decision.

She wants to go back to the orphanage to take a look.

……

Empty, nothing.

Tang Tang got out of the car, and his white shoes stepped on the ground, raising some dust.

The dilapidated, cage-like orphanage in my memory no longer exists. All that remains is a vacant lot overgrown with weeds.

There were some messy things on the open space, and not far away was an abandoned pond.

Tang Tang walked slowly toward the pond along the route he remembered, and then stopped at a familiar place.

No, nothing.

The pond had been abandoned long ago, with only all kinds of garbage blown in by the wind from somewhere. There was no shabby shed as she remembered, no big yellow dog as she remembered, and no little boy as she remembered.

It is quiet and dilapidated here, but it stretches as far as the eye can see. All you can see are flat land and weeds, and in the distance are the old houses in the village.

Tang Tang seemed to have thought of something and decided not to get in the car, but walked directly to the village.

The village was also very poor and old. At the entrance of the village were a few old men wearing old cotton-padded jackets and knitted hats, basking in the midday sun and talking to each other.

When the old people saw Tang Tang, they were all stunned. They looked at each other and asked carefully, "Little girl, where are you from? What are you doing?"

Where have they seen such fashionable and beautiful young people? Whether they are female or male...

"Are you a star?"

Tang Tang shook his head and asked, "Old man, do you know if there is an orphanage near this village?"

"Orphanage?" Several elderly people looked puzzled and asked each other in dialect. Then they shook their heads at Tang Tang, "No, little girl, did you find the wrong place? There is no orphanage here. The young people have all gone out to work, leaving us old men and women in the village."

Most of the people in the village are left-behind elderly people, and there are also quite a few children. They are unable to be taken care of by the young people who work away from home, so they stay in the village to be taken care of by the elderly.

A group of left-behind elderly and children.

Tang Yu paused, then said, "Grandma, is there a village party secretary in the village?"

"Village Party Secretary? Yes!"

Speaking of the village party secretary, several old people suddenly laughed. The wrinkles on their faces were obvious and their eyes were cloudy, but they were very happy.

Probably because they rarely have the opportunity to chat with young people, the old people are very talkative and they are full of praise for the village party secretary.

"Oh, little girl, you don't know that our village party secretary is a good kid. He is a college student in our village. He came back after graduation! He said he wanted to... said he wanted to help the village!"

"Yes! The branch secretary is a good boy. He not only delivers oil and food to us old men and women, but also organizes the elderly and children to go to the brigade yard to watch movies together in the evening!"

"I'm old, I'm old. When people get old, they just like to be lively and bustling."

"Well, our village is poor and there are few young people. It's not like the village next door, where there's a canning factory and it's so bustling!"

It sounds like the village party secretary is a college student who returned to his hometown?

Tang Tang was very happy. Young people are always easier to talk to than stubborn middle-aged people.

So she asked for the location of the village party secretary and left with her people.

Everyone knew why Tang Tang came, so they didn't say much and followed Tang Tang tacitly.

The village is actually not small, with dirt roads and paths extending in all directions to other small villages.

There are many orchards and farmlands between the villages, so the village center is not difficult to find.

When they entered the brigade yard, Tang Tang could still hear the voice of a young girl, no more than 12 years old, who was raising her voice earnestly, "Grandpa Wang! How can you say that! How old is Wang Xiaoyu? She is only years old and will go to junior high school next year! The country requires nine years of compulsory education, how can you not let your child go to school!?"

As soon as the voice fell, there was the sound of another girl sobbing softly, and she said timidly, "Grandpa... I... I want to go to school."
