Rebirth 78 was replaced by a husband, the cold educated youth pulled the curtains every day

Many villagers gathered outside the brigade headquarters' wall.

There are people of all ages, young and old.

They all looked at the project team curiously.

The shout from the woman in the project team just now made many people laugh.

Some brave villagers sat directly on the broken wall.

Such a scene of onlookers made Village Chief Liu and County Chief Sun look unhappy.

"Village Chief Liu, they are watching like they are looking at a giant macaque. It's so rude. You should go and communicate with these villagers and pay attention to your attitude." County Magistrate Sun frowned and said to Village Chief Liu.

"Okay, I'll go."

After responding, Village Chief Liu hurried to find the old branch secretary.

"Old Li, look at these people in your village. What kind of people are they? You should immediately drive them away. If they leave a bad impression on the Hong Kong businessmen, you will be guilty of a serious crime."

Village chief Liu grabbed the old branch secretary and said with an unhappy look on his face.

"I'll go. I'll go right away."

The old branch secretary was also frightened when he heard this, and hurried to the wall, stretched out his hand and started to shoo people away.

"Get down! Get down~!"

"This isn't your kang, yet you're sitting on it!"

"Don't look! I'm telling you, if anyone disturbs these leaders, don't blame me for withholding your rations!"

"Go, go, go... Hurry up and leave. If anyone stands in the way, you will get ten pounds less grain during the Autumnal Equinox!" the old branch secretary threatened.

When they heard that their rations were being withheld, the group of villagers who were standing by the wall watching the excitement suddenly scattered and left in a hurry.

Only a few men who had not yet found wives were still reluctant to leave and kept looking back, staring at the women in the yard.

The time soon came to night.

There was no fire at the brigade headquarters, so some villagers prepared dinner at home and then brought it here.

There were no particularly good dishes, just the most ordinary farm dishes. The best dish was a pot of chicken stewed with mushrooms. Apart from that, there were no other meat dishes.

After sleeping for a few hours, Shu Tianqi finally recovered a lot.

The entire project team gathered in the yard, each holding a bowl. There were several pots of food on a table in the middle.

The old branch secretary looked embarrassed and said to everyone, "Leaders, our conditions here are really limited. Please don't be disgusted."

"Old man, we are the ones who have caused you trouble. We should be the ones to say thank you." Shu Tianqi said.

For such a poor village, it is really not easy to have such a meal. The chicken in the bowl may be someone's treasure.

Hearing Shu Tianqi's words, the old branch secretary smiled:

"We are all country folk, and we don't understand much, but we know you're here to invest. As long as you invest here, things will get better. Leaders, just invest here."

The old branch secretary's words were very straightforward.

But it also reveals the simplest desire.

It is extremely difficult for rural people to get rich by relying on themselves. Not to mention, the road out of the village is an insurmountable gap for them.

Now that these wealthy bosses have come to them, the old branch secretary is eager to take out the best things in the village.

As long as we can keep these big bosses and let them invest in the village, he would be willing to do anything.

"Old man, we are indeed here to invest, but whether it will succeed in the end depends on many conditions. We need to fully investigate and discuss before we can come to a conclusion. I can't answer you now."

Although Shu Tianqi was somewhat touched, he did not get carried away.

Everyone has dinner.

Lu Ye took the large white porcelain bowl in his hand and added a bowl of rice from the wooden barrel. Then he walked to the table and put some dishes into the bowl.

Then he sat down on the steps in front of the house and started eating by himself.

Su Mengyao also got a bowl of food and sat next to Lu Ye.

Both of them were familiar with this way of eating and did not feel there was anything wrong with it.

Seeing this, the project team members followed suit, prepared their meals, and found a place to sit and eat.

Shu Wen also got a bowl of food and sat on the bench with her father Shu Tianqi, eating slowly and leisurely.

After dinner, it gradually got dark.

Comrades like Lu Ye were taken back home by their fellow villagers.

It was not even 6 o'clock and the power was cut off in the village.

It was Su Mengyao who used matches to light the kerosene lamp that the old branch secretary had prepared in advance, which provided lighting.

Several women were lying side by side on a large bunk bed.

Shu Wen and Su Mengyao were at the innermost side.

It’s too early for anyone to sleep.

Shu Wen actually began to admire Su Mengyao, and was also curious about Su Mengyao's previous life in the countryside.

"You're pretty good. I didn't know how to use that lamp just now. Luckily you were here, otherwise, we wouldn't know what to do."

Su Mengyao held her head with one hand and said with a smile:

"What's the big deal? Our conditions here are backward, especially in the countryside. When I was working in the countryside, there was no electricity at the educated youth camp, and we used kerosene lamps like this."

"You Hong Kong people haven't seen it much, so it's normal that you don't know how to use it."

Shu Wen looked at Su Mengyao: "Tell me about your life in the countryside. I'm actually quite curious."

"Okay, then I'll tell you..." When talking about the past, Su Mengyao also became interested and immediately told Shu Wen about it.

the other side.

Lu Ye was taken back home by a fellow villager.

In the shabby room, the walls were still covered with newspapers, which had already turned yellow.

The earthen kang was heated very warmly and the bedding on it had been laid out in advance.

"Leader, please sit down..."

The old man who brought Lu Ye back looked at Lu Ye somewhat stiffly.

"Uncle, I'm not a leader. You can just call me Xiao Lu. I'm from Hua County, so we're fellow villagers." Lu Ye said with a smile.

"You are also a leader. The branch secretary told us that everyone coming this time is a leader and asked us to treat them well," said the old man.

The kerosene lamp was a little dim. Lu Ye took out a cigarette from his pocket, took out one and handed it to the old man.

"Uncle, you smoke."

The old man saw the cigarette in Lu Ye's hand, licked his lips, but did not dare to take it.

"Your cigarettes are too expensive. I can't have them."

"Uncle, I'm going to stay at your house for a few more days. If you're so polite to me, it will make us uncomfortable. Just let me go and treat me like a young man in the village."

Lu Ye smiled and stuffed the cigarette in his hand directly into the old man's hand.

"Uncle, now that land reform has taken place, how much land did your family get?"
