Chapter 50 The excitement at the old village chief’s house
It's sunset again, and smoke is rising from the quiet villages.
At the entrance of Taoxi Village, a group of little children were still playing a game of fighting with crutches.
The children's chatter and laughter added a bit of excitement and vitality to this peaceful picture.
"Goudan, be careful, Qiqi will fall down after being hit like this by you!"
"Hey, I know! I'm helping Qiqi! Xiya, hold your head back, otherwise Qiqi won't be able to stand firmly!"
"Quick, quick, there's a hole, the pillars come over and fix it!"
The children devised strategies while playing.
Qiqi, "..."
She just wanted to play a game, but ended up being caught in the middle, airtight, and she was so short that she couldn't even see the heads of people outside.
Qiqi was so anxious that she stamped her feet and protested softly, "You guys keep bumping into me but I can't stand still! Let me play for a while..."
"Qiqi, please wait a little longer, we will win soon!"
"No, I'm just going out to play for a while -"
"Win, win, woohoo!"
Qiqi, "..." Alas.
The little Eggman was floating above her head, watching this scene and gloating.
Now the entire Taoxi Village, including the kids in Taoxi Village, treats Qiqi as a kid. Under such circumstances, she still wants to play games?
Play with loneliness.
Ring ring ring——
A crisp ringtone rang in the distance.
Under the setting sun, two figures on bicycles gradually approached and became clear.
Qiqi's eyes lit up, and she raised her short legs to greet him, "Grandpa, the village chief! Second uncle! Qiqi is here to pick you up!"
Hearty laughter burst out of the old village chief's mouth, "We Qiqi are really here to pick up grandpa? Keep your word, be good!"
After a day of running around outside, I heard the baby's milky cry and saw that sweet smiling face, and all the fatigue was swept away.
His Hua Zi was also there. After calling him "Master", he just stood there like a piece of wood. He was as cute and well-behaved as Qiqi's fingers.
People cannot be compared with others. Once compared, the old village chief felt that his grandson was worthless.
"Grandpa, village chief, second uncle, have you drank the jujube tea made by Qiqi? Does it taste good? Isn't the loquat very sweet?" The baby raised his little face in front of the bicycle, and his words were full of concern.
.
"Delicious! Sweet!" The old village chief smiled and took out a small plastic bag from the front basket of his bicycle and handed it to Qiqi, "Here, this is the Jigong Dan that grandpa bought in the county. It is sour, sweet and delicious.
Take it and share it with your friends!"
After saying that, he added, "Grandpa will tell your mother-in-law later that she will take you to grandpa's house for dinner and make braised pork for you!"
Chen Jianhe didn't forget what he bought, "Also, I bought a lot of the xiaolongbao that my second uncle promised to buy for you. Let Qiqi share it with himself!"
Knowing that Qiqi had good things, he would never eat them secretly, but would always share them with his friends, so when buying Xiao Long Bao, Chen Jianhe specially bought more.
Now that he has earned a lot of money, he can afford to buy things for his children, both young and old, and he is happy to buy them.
After giving Qiqi the things, Chen Jianhe rubbed the baby's head as usual, and then he went home with the old village chief.
As soon as the adults left, the children immediately cheered and gathered around Qiqi, their eyes brightening.
"It turns out that Xiao Long Bao is so small! But it tastes so delicious. It's so oily and sizzling when you bite into it. It's full of meat!"
"Jigong Dan is also delicious, sour and sweet, and it's so small, it looks like mouse droppings!"
"Can you speak? Can rat droppings smell like this? Hey, you said that the old village chief and Uncle Chen went to the county seat and didn't they get first place in the exam?"
"I don't know, but they are smiling so happily, they must have done well in the exam!"
Qi Qi distributed the things and walked towards the village talking and laughing with her friends while tasting the new ones, her eyebrows creasing with smiles.
She also felt that the village chief’s grandfather and second uncle must have gotten good grades in the exam, they were amazing!
After returning home, Qiqi first fed Zhang Xifeng one and a half small dumplings left behind.
The Xiaolongbao tastes really good, the filling is big and the skin is thin, and it tastes very fragrant.
"Why is there still half of it?" Zhang Xifeng finished eating and teased the little kid, "We Qiqi can't eat anymore?"
There was half of the three finger-sized buns left. Zhang Xifeng subconsciously thought that the baby couldn't finish it, so he left it. Otherwise, wouldn't he have swallowed it in one bite?
Qiqi bent her eyes and nodded, "Qiqi can't eat anymore. This is broken off. There is no saliva."
Zhang Xifeng laughed and pinched the baby's cheek, "Even if Qiqi has chewed it, my mother-in-law won't mind it."
The baby's eyes became even more curved, turning into beautiful crescent moons.
The little egg man was half sitting, half lying, floating in the air, quietly looking at the admiration in the little baby's eyes.
What can't you eat?
The steamed dumplings were distributed, and there were almost no leftovers for each of the little ones.
Qiqi only ate half of it herself, and was reluctant to finish the other half, leaving it all for her mother-in-law.
…
The old village chief's house was particularly lively at night.
Braised pork was stewed, a plate of eggs was cooked, vegetables and sour beans were added, bone radish soup was added, and freshly steamed large noodle buns were placed next to it.
This dish is already very abundant in the village.
After the food was cooked, Zhang Xifeng and Chen Jianhe were called, and then a few older people from the village were called. The table was full.
The most interesting thing is to talk about what happened in the county while eating and drinking.
"Oops, I almost got kicked out?! Oh my mother!"
"Boss Song also went to the meeting? And he directly signed to support our Taoxi Village? You won the first place without running for the election?!"
The old village chief was very good at telling stories, and the plot had ups and downs, which shocked everyone, "Yes, I won the first place! The town leader even said in person that if we perform well, we will reward our village later!"
Everyone, "..." are you still doing well? What have you done? You are not ashamed to say this!
After saying this, everyone still had happy faces, "Keep talking, keep talking, what next?"
The old village chief took a sip of his wine, enjoying the appetizing and anxious taste, "Then... Jianhe, you tell the story!"
Chen Jianhe coughed a few times and suppressed his laughter, and said seriously, "Okay, let me add what the village chief didn't say. When Boss Song signed, she was crisp and clear, and the agreement was reached with a stroke of her pen. She made a request,
We need the town to help our village build the road! Build the road from the town to our village!"
The big guy roared away with a roar!
Build the road! Build the road!
The mountain road from their village to the town is rugged and difficult to walk! In addition, it is far away from the town, so the most difficult thing for the villagers is traveling!
It’s dusty on a sunny day, muddy and slippery on a rainy day, and just walking back and forth on a bicycle can make you faint!
Boss Song gave them money to build the road, which means that everyone can walk on a flat and spacious road when going in and out in the future! It means that it will take a lot less time to go to town! It also means that they got the first job in the ten miles and eight townships of Hagilu Town.
honor!
When I go out and talk about Taoxi Village in the future, besides Little Qilingua, the first thing that comes to mind is that their village was the first to build the road!
This is the confidence and honor that people from Taoxi Village can feel proud of when they walk outside!
After the uproarious laughter, everyone present at the dinner table had tears in their eyes.
It's getting better and better.
The life and scene of their village are getting better and better.
