Chapter 159 So Sweet Candy
Liu Huaying's plan is to choose a suitable place upstream to build a reservoir, store all the water, and open the gate to release the water when rice seedlings need to be planted.

In this way, the conflicts caused by villagers fighting for water every year are solved.

Liu Huaying's professional knowledge is engineering design, and he drew the architectural design of the reservoir when he was recuperating.

After showing the design drawings to the old clerk, he also felt that this method was feasible, so he asked Liu Huaying to write out the plan, and he took it to the county town to submit to the superior for review, and if he passed it, he could get a sum of money.

In the spring of the following year, the higher authorities agreed to Liu Huaying's plan, but at that time financial difficulties, the funds and materials that could be allocated were far from enough to build a simple version of the reservoir, so he had to think about a solution.

Liu Huaying figured it out, the money was enough to buy materials, so he immediately called the village residents' meeting to mobilize everyone to build the reservoir together.

One hundred households all agree with the idea put forward by the village head of this age. They are tired of fighting for water all these years.

February passed, and with the full cooperation of everyone, the reservoir was built. It was already April, and there was still about a week before transplanting.

Liu Huaying was also worried that time was running out. When the amount of stored water was not enough, there was a heavy rain in the old world, and all the water gathered in the reservoir, and enough water was quickly saved.

In the first year since Shilipo started subdividing the fields to households, there was no unpleasant incident due to water grabbing.

What Liu Huaying wanted to do has been completed, and she submitted her resignation to the higher authorities.

On the day of leaving Shilipo, all the villagers who heard the news came to see him off. Boiled eggs, multigrain pancakes, thick noodle steamed buns, melon seeds and peanuts, all kinds of food filled the desk.

Everyone was unwilling to leave after giving good things, and they all looked at him eagerly.

The yard was full of people, and Liu Huaying's heart was warm and sour.

The little boys came too, Liu Huaying picked up the ones on the table and shared them among them, but no one was willing to take them. One of the boys with a hole in his trousers and his knees was exposed took out from his pocket, who knows how much money he had saved. The long candy was handed to him.

The candy wrapper was black, and it was hard to see what color it was. Liu Huaying took the candy and slowly peeled off the candy wrapper, and put it in his mouth. It was so sweet.

Later, Liu Huaying worked in Shilipo for five years, raising fish in the reservoir, planting spices on the mountain, and widening the road from the village to the countryside.

Under his painstaking management, Shilipo has become a well-known wealthy village.

The superior department found that he was particularly suitable for poverty alleviation work, and asked his opinion, Liu Huaying readily accepted and has been working until now.

Asked by Yanzi, Liu Huaying's brain was like playing a movie, recalling all the things she had done in these years, but she really didn't have the strength to open her mouth and tell Yanzi all these words.

No matter how much Li Yan encouraged her, Liu Huaying was so depressed that she could no longer support her and closed her eyes again.

I was too tired, and when my consciousness became more and more blurred, a familiar man's voice shouted in my ear, "Old Liu, please support me, I am Zhang Yufang, you are so lucky, the forensic doctor is here, we are giving You transfuse blood."

Liu Huaying heard his voice and wanted to open her eyes, but she couldn't.

A warm current was injected into the body, and the cold body slowly warmed up.

"Comrade Liu Huaying, I am the forensic doctor Zhang Yufang said. You should be the most sleepy now. Don't sleep. Only when you can open your eyes and see us can you sleep." Another man's voice said.

Liu Huaying's body was warm and she was so sleepy, but she was told not to fall asleep. It was a struggle against her own will, which was too painful.
