to farm together

"A'an, is Teacher Xue back yet?"

"No, what's the matter?" Xuan Yi'an had just returned from the field, took off his raincoat and hung it on the wall by the entrance, when he saw the second uncle hurried over with an umbrella.

It has been raining for a while these days, and it is still raining today. The second uncle closed the umbrella and said: "I just received a call from Liang Sen, saying that their village brigade is going to hold some discussion meeting, and asked me to call Let's go together."

"Discussion meeting?"

"Yes, Liang Sen said that he wanted to discuss the technology of vegetable cultivation, and even praised the old professor in his village to the sky. The professor also taught the people in his village every day, as if he really had a few brushes."

"Well, just ask Xue Chengqi and me to go?"

"It is said that anyone in the village who is interested can go, and it has just been busy for a while, and everyone is not so busy. If you want to go, you can go, but he specifically asked me to invite you and Teacher Xue to participate together."

"What about the village over there, will they also go?"

"Of course, the village head of their village must at least go, otherwise Liang Sen will lose face, and if he can't get along with Liang Sen, it won't be of any benefit to everyone."

"Okay, when is it?"

"Just tomorrow."

"Okay, I'll tell Xue Chengqi when he comes back."

"Are you all going?"

"Go, it's rare to have a chance to find out, why not go."

"Okay, I'll go with you tomorrow."

The second uncle chatted with Xuan Yi'an for a few more words before going out, saying that he wanted to talk to the villagers to see if anyone wanted to go.

The next morning, the drizzle started to fall again. Xuan Yi'an, Xue Chengqi, and the second uncle drove to the village brigade together.

Other villagers said that they didn't want to go, they couldn't reach that level of discussion, and they couldn't even care about studying with Teacher Xue.And using the title of seminar, it is obviously aimed at Mr. Xue and the others.In addition, the old professor may not be better than Teacher Xue. If he really has some skills, it is enough to have Teacher Xue around. Anyway, Teacher Xue will teach everyone when he comes back.

Driving on a rainy day, this road is not easy to walk, especially the small half of the dirt road that is not paved with cement.Not only did the road surface become muddy and slippery due to the rain, but it was also full of potholes. Fortunately, Xue Chengqi's car had a relatively high chassis, otherwise, if he accidentally fell into any mud pit, he might not be able to get out.

"Oh, this broken road, why haven't people been sent down to repair it?" After passing through a few big pits, the second uncle's old arms and legs were really uncomfortable, and he couldn't help but complain.

"That's right, it's been more than a month since the beginning of spring, so you won't really be right, so just keep it?" Xuan Yi'an sat in the passenger seat, looked sideways at Xue Chengqi and asked.

"I think so, don't believe me." Xue Chengqi replied with a smile.

The second uncle sat in the back and was surprised when he heard the words: "What? Teacher Xue means that they won't be repaired?"

Seeing that Xue Chengqi wanted to concentrate on driving, Xuan Yi'an went on to explain: "It's not that I don't want to fix it, it's just that I'm procrastinating. Second uncle, did you ask Liang Sen before?"

"Yes, Liang Sen said that there is a lot of rain in spring, which is not suitable for road construction, so no one was sent down."

Xuan Yi'an felt something was wrong when she heard it, and said mockingly: "Oh, this is an excuse. It's not raining heavily, and it's basically only half a day. Fill the pit with sand and stone, spread it with cement, and then cover it with a film and wait for it to harden. That's it."

"Yeah, I think so too, but Liang Sen gave me a lot of reasoning, and I don't know if other people's road construction is really different from ours. Now that you have said this, it seems that Liang Sen The grandson is fooling me again."

"Well, I don't know when it will be delayed."

"By the way, we can fix it ourselves..."

"No, the superiors won't fix it for us..." Xuan Yi'an knew that the second uncle was as naive as she thought before, so she interrupted directly, and told the second uncle what Xue Chengqi had told him before. explained it again.

The second uncle also expressed that he was disgusted when he heard this, and he said helplessly: "Is there no other way, this road can't be like this, it will be very inconvenient for us to sell vegetables in the future."

"Of course there is a way."

"I have a solution." Before Xuan Yi'an finished speaking, Xue Chengqi said at the same time.

The second uncle became happy again when he heard that, looked at the two of them expectantly and asked, "What can I do?"

Xuan Yi'an and Xue Chengqi looked at each other, and said with a smile, "I won't tell you yet."

"..."

Years ago, Xue Chengqi had predicted that this road would be like this, and Xuan Yi'an also believed that what Xue Chengqi said was indeed very possible, and the two of them naturally had long thought of a solution.However, the two have not discussed this matter, so they don't actually know what the other party said.

"Second uncle, don't worry, we have to participate in this discussion meeting first, and then see if this method is feasible." Xuan Yi'an comforted, then looked at Xue Chengqi and said with a smile: "I don't know if our method is the same of?"

Xue Chengqi stopped the car, turned his head to wink at Xuan Yi'an, and said with a smile, "You'll know if you take a look." Then he turned around and said to the second uncle: "Here, don't worry, this road must be repaired. When the time comes, Second Uncle, you will know when you look at it."

The second uncle got out of the car with the two of them, so he didn't ask what they were talking about.

The seminar started at nine o'clock in the morning, and they arrived at eight fifty-five in the morning.Fortunately, I was not late, although the road delayed a lot of time.

"This village brigade is different from our small village. There is also a dedicated building as an office area." Xue Chengqi saw it for the first time, and couldn't help but praise it.

There are not only independent offices in this office building, but also reading rooms, conference rooms for meetings or training.There is also a small square in front of the office building, and there are many villagers chatting there in twos and threes at the moment.

"That must be different."

"Whose building does it belong to? It's quite impressive."

"It's Liang Sen's." The second uncle knew which building Mr. Xue was talking about without even looking.

This Liang Sen's house is next to the village office building, and it is also the tallest, most glorious and most beautiful building in the village brigade.I don't know what he was thinking, whether he was stupid or reckless, and he didn't know how to keep a low profile. Anyone with a discerning eye would know that this building was built with embezzled money.

Because Liang Sen's family didn't have the money to build a house no matter what, even an ordinary two-story adobe house might not be able to be built, let alone a three-and-a-half-story house that was well-decorated inside and out.

Liang Sen is actually over 60 years old. If he had followed the retirement age stipulated by the state, he should have retired long ago.However, there is no establishment of cadres in the village, so there is no strict requirement on the retirement age.Of course, the key is that Liang Sen's nephew is the leader of the county.

It is said that since Liang Sen became the director of this village, his family has never planted land again.However, their family still has a canteen, but those in the village can't make much money.

There are only two sons in his family. The eldest son has been away from home for many years and has not returned home. I heard that he is engaged in some shady activities outside. A few years ago, he was arrested and squatted for a few years.The youngest son was the one who reported Xuan Yi'an and the others last time. He was loitering at home all day, only knowing about eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, so where would he get any income.

Among the three, the second uncle was the most familiar with the village brigade. He led Xuan Yi'an and Xue Chengqi directly through the crowd and into the training room.

The training room was almost full of people, except for a few vacant seats in the front row, where Liang Yiming, the secretary of the village brigade, sat.Seeing the second uncle coming in with two young people, he hurried over to express his welcome.

Xuan Yi'an and the others sat down in the row not far from the village party secretary, and then the second uncle chatted with the village head of Li Village next to him.Li Dashu, the head of Li Village, probably heard about Xue Chengqi and the others, and greeted them warmly. He also told Xue Chengqi that the group of villagers behind him were all from their Li Village and brought them here to study.

After a while, Liang Sen came in with a few people, and when he saw Xue Chengqi, he smiled and said, "Oh, this is not Mr. Xue. I was worried that you would be embarrassed to come. I specially asked your village chief to bring you."

"Hehe, Director Liang was joking, I'm not ashamed."

"Haha, it's time, it's time for class, let's talk later, maybe you will know in a while."

As Liang Sen spoke, he saw an old man with half-white hair but still in good spirits walking into the door.At the same time, the training room fell silent, and the villagers standing outside the office building also gathered around the training room.

The old professor wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and he looked like an old school intellectual. He glanced at everyone with a smile on his face, and said slowly: "Welcome everyone to come to our planting seminar today, and I am very grateful to Director Liang for giving me the opportunity. We created this opportunity for exchange."

After a pause, he waited for the applause to stop before continuing: "My surname is Fan, and I am a retired old teacher. Most people here already know me, so I won't introduce too much, and most of you here are veterans. The front-line agricultural personnel are more experienced than me teaching, and I heard that there is a young and promising professional teacher in Lang Village, so we should take this opportunity to communicate and discuss."

Then, Mr. Fan first introduced his own theoretical knowledge of planting to everyone, and then communicated and discussed by asking questions.

Not to mention, this old professor is still very well-versed, maybe he is not so rich in experience, and the knowledge he teaches is not so advanced.But this knowledge is very practical, and it is still helpful to the farmers in the village.

But this is a discussion meeting, but it is actually more about Professor Fan's personal lectures, or Liang Sen wants to show off to the small villages, especially Xue Chengqi and them.To show the superiority of their village brigade, let everyone follow or obey his leadership.

In class, Xue Chengqi asked many questions correspondingly, and Professor Fan answered them one by one.These answers, while not the best, do apply at this stage.So Xue Chengqi still recognized the old professor's knowledge, maybe they can communicate more and try to cooperate, for fear that Liang Sen's level is not reliable.
