Era: Starting from cave dwellings in northern Shaanxi

Chapter 102 Said (shui) Service
  "Thank you, Auntie, you really don't have to do so much just because I'm here."

Sun Xiangyang's home was similar to Su Huiwan's imagination. Not to mention the bare walls, the furnishings and furniture in the home were in line with this poor place.

It wasn't until she saw the table full of food that she finally couldn't help it anymore.

Stewed pork ribs, stir-fried pork with radish, scrambled eggs, boiled eggs, white flour steamed buns, millet porridge.

For Su Huiwan, even at home, it is easy to have such a table of meals all year round.

It's not that I can't afford it, it's mainly that I'm used to being thrifty in the past.

But what's going on with her family, and what's going on with Sun Xiangyang's family?
  She estimated that the other party might have even revealed his family wealth, obviously not wanting to lose his reputation in front of her.

"Auntie, we had already stewed the bones before you came."

Dudu Mali said while drooling over the ribs in the basin.

Su Huiwan's hand holding the chopsticks suddenly stiffened.

"Don't talk nonsense."

Chen Shuting glared at her.

"That's right. You taught us to tell the truth before."

Dudu said confidently.

The expression on Chen Shuting's face suddenly became awkward.

"Eat yours quickly."

Sun Xiangyang took a rib in time and blocked the little girl's mouth.

Otherwise, the mother and daughter would definitely choke.

In the past, what Dudu told him the most was all kinds of 'bad things' about Chen Shuting, especially after she went to school, she was not allowed to do this or that, and even the toys she got from school were all confiscated. .

Especially when Sun Xiangyang came back this time, Dudu seemed to have found a backer, and he was obviously more confident.

"Sister, there's no need to go out. There are so many things at home that we can't finish them all."

Sun Xiangyang blocked the little girl's mouth and said another sentence himself.

Chen Shuting next to him gave him a hard look.

Su Huiwan nodded silently.

Except for Su Huiwan, who ate a little absent-mindedly, the rest of the group naturally ate the meal with great enthusiasm.

Although there is no shortage of food in the family now, before today, let alone eating meat every day, it was considered good to have some minced meat every three to five days.

The big fat that Accountant Sun brought last time has also been refined into oil, and some of it is added when cooking.

The remaining meat scraps were also wrapped into two dumplings.

After dinner, Sun Xiangyang took Su Huiwan for a stroll in Shuangshui Bay.

This was what Su Huiwan requested. She asked Chen Shuting not to delay sending her children to school. The purpose was to get in touch with Sun Xiangyang.

"Xiaoxian Well? I heard Tingting say before that this well was dug with your help?"

Su Huiwan looked at the words on the well platform and asked curiously.

Before the meal, she chatted a lot with Chen Shuting, and also learned about the other person's experience in the past few years, how she married Sun Xiangyang, and what Sun Xiangyang had done recently.

She couldn't help but become more curious about Sun Xiangyang.

"I am only responsible for finding the location. The actual work of digging wells is done by the well-drilling team organized by the brigade."

Sun Xiangyang tried his best to play the role of a tour guide.

There is no way, who let her be Chen Shuting's cousin, his cousin-in-law.

And he could also see that Chen Shuting had a deep relationship with the other party.

"Water found with a dragon-seeking ruler?"

"Correct."

"Then what are your plans in the future? Stay here and become a Feng Shui master?"

Su Huiwan asked casually.

From her words, Sun Xiangyang could tell that she had not given up yet.

"Let's go, I'll take you to another place to see."

Sun Xiangyang did not answer, but led Su Huiwan to Chagouzi.

However, this time Sun Xiangyang did not go down, but stood on it and looked down.

"Here, there are nearly one hundred acres of black land. Maybe you don't know what black land is. It was the richest cultivated land in the Loess Plateau, equivalent to the black land in the Northeast.

But over the years, with changes in the natural climate, over-cultivation, felling, and soil erosion, the black land has gradually become the barren yellow land it is today. The grain output of one acre of yellow land is not even as much as that of the black land. half.

In comparison, Shuangshui Bay is lucky to be able to find these black lands here.

For the people here, they may not be able to go out in this life and can only live by farming and working hard.

And this black land is their hope, the hope to fill their stomachs.

But do you know how you found this black land? "

Sun Xiangyang asked.

"I heard that you found it too."

Su Huiwan looked at the people below who were full of energy and hope, and even understood what Sun Xiangyang wanted to say to her.

"Yes, I found it, and there are people over there. They are members of the Shapingba commune. There are two hundred of them. They work as volunteers and bring their own dry food to help Shuangshuiwan reclaim the land for free."

"Bring your own dry food and help for free?"

Su Huiwan was stunned. Chen Shuting had not told her this before.

Is it possible that the production team here has such a good relationship with each other?

"Yes, because the well water in Shapingba has been polluted and turned into bitter water, and the well drilling team cannot produce water there.

In order to be able to drink normal water, the entire population of 575 in Shapingba even prepared to build canals and spend several years to prevent future generations from drinking bitter water.

It was me who helped Shapingba find a sweet water well. In order to thank them, they sent two hundred people, bringing their own dry food, to help Shuangshuiwan reclaim this black land for free. "

Sun Xiangyang spoke slowly, just changing the order of helping Shapingba find water.

“I say this not to boast about my achievements, but to tell you that I can make this place better and better.

Perhaps in your eyes, today's Shuangshuiwan is just a poor and backward small village. Even with these black lands, it can only rely on farming in this life to barely fill its stomach, and it still has no future.

And if I stay here, I will only be a worthless farmer for the rest of my life.

But, Reporter Su, I want to ask you, what makes you successful?
  If you go to college, have a good job, and stay in the city, does that mean you are successful?

But what about them?

Are they relying on their hard-working hands to reclaim this black land and make a living by themselves, so they are not considered promising?

People in Shapingba are willing to sacrifice for future generations. Isn’t that considered promising?
  It's normal for you city people to look down on country people.

Because in the eyes of most of you, country people are ignorant, even slovenly, and uneducated. Many of them can't even write their own names.

But without the food they worked so hard to grow, what would the people in the city eat?
  Did it fall from the sky?
  As for myself, given the special circumstances of my family, even if I go to college, there will be no results.

And I went to the city, what can I do?
  Helping people in the city with Feng Shui?

As... a lackey?
  Then why don't I stay here and help Shuangshuiwan and my hometown develop? ”    Sun Xiangyang’s voice was not loud, but it was like setting off a huge wave in Su Huiwan’s heart.

She carefully looked at the man in front of her, whom she had not fallen in love with at first, and felt that there was something indescribable about him at this moment.

At the same time, she also somewhat understood why Chen Shuting stubbornly wanted to stay. I am afraid that in addition to the conflicts with her family and the incident that year, the man himself made Chen Shuting willingly choose to stay.

And compared to what the other party has done and his future plans, what he has done is nothing at all.

Even for a moment, she wanted to stay and help develop Shuangshui Bay together.

"Reporter Su, or I should call you cousin, I know you are here with a mission. You want to persuade Shuting to take the college entrance examination and then return to the city. In your eyes, this is the most suitable thing for her. The road is also for her own good.

If she wants to leave here, I won't stop her.

But if you want me to persuade her, then I can only say sorry. I am not that great and willing to send my aunt out.

Don't say anything. Let Shuting come back after she graduates from college.

Do you believe this yourself?

From my point of view, I definitely hope that the family can be together, and Shuting's dream is to be a teacher. Now Shuangshuiwan has her own elementary school, and she is very happy now.

Isn't this enough? "

"I'm sorry, I was abrupt."

Su Huiwan exhaled a breath and said seriously.

"You are Shuting's cousin and a member of her family. It's normal to wish her well. But on this matter, you should ask her for her own opinion instead of trying to persuade her through me. That would be unfair to her. unfair."

Sun Xiangyang knew very well from the beginning why Su Huiwan came to him alone, so this topic came up.

Although, he is far from being as great as he said, even everything he did was out of utilitarianism, in order to make himself and his family live a better life.

However, Shuangshui Bay has Xiaoxian Well, and with this piece of black land, Shapingba also has a sweet water well, which solves the biggest difficulty.

Isn't this enough to explain the problem?
  "Don't worry, I will definitely not force Shuting to make a choice in this matter, nor will I put any other pressure on you. As for Shuting's mother, I will try my best to help persuade her. .

But you also know that there is something special about Shuting's family. Her eldest brother still refuses to come back.

And Shuting's mother is getting older. It is normal to miss her daughter and hope that her daughter will come back to her. Please understand the selfish mood of a mother. "

Su Huiwan said.

"I can understand."

Sun Xiangyang nodded.

Then Su Huiwan took out paper and pen from her pocket, finished writing on them, and handed them to Sun Xiangyang.

"This is my work unit and the phone number where I can be reached. If you have anything or encounter any problems, you can call me."

"Cousin, you finally met Shu Ting, why don't you stay for two more days?"

Sun Xiangyang had already seen Su Huiwan's intention to leave.

"No, I'm in a hurry this time, and I have to catch the train back, so I can't stay longer. But don't worry, now that I know this place, I might come again in a while. Don't worry about me then. Just rush out."

Su Huiwan smiled and said.

"You are always welcome at Shuangshui Bay."

"That's it. I won't say goodbye to Shuting, so that she won't cry like she did when she was a child. Here is two hundred yuan. Please help me transfer it to her, just to buy something for Dudu."

Later, Su Huiwan took out a stack of large unity from her pocket.

"There's no need for money."

"No, this is given to me, my cousin, for Shuting and the child, so you are just helping to hand it over and have no right to refuse."

After saying that, Su Huiwan forced the money into Sun Xiangyang's pocket.

Then he smoothed his hair and took a deep look at the commune members under Chagouzi who were shouting slogans, laughing and working hard.

At this moment, she acknowledged what Sun Xiangyang said.

For people like Shuangshuiwan, hard work is the greatest reward.

Su Huiwan arrived suddenly and left neatly. Accompanied by Lu Weiguo, she left Shuangshuiwan.

When Sun Xiangyang came to the school, he saw Chen Shuting standing there with red eyes.

"See?"

Sun Xiangyang stepped forward and gently hugged Chen Shuting.

"Ah."

Chen Shuting nodded, her voice choked, and then buried her head in Sun Xiangyang's arms.

"How about I send you to catch up with her and you follow her back to stay for a while? As for the school, you don't have to worry. Although I haven't graduated from elementary school, I still have no problem teaching the first and second grades."

Sun Xiangyang said softly.

"No."

Chen Shuting reacted a little fiercely and shook her head vigorously.

"When you have time next year, you can go back with me."

"it is good."

Sun Xiangyang agreed.

Su Huiwan's arrival and departure were like a stone dropped in water, causing ripples, but as time went by, they slowly calmed down.

On the surface, there seemed to be no changes, but Sun Xiangyang knew that changes had actually occurred.

However, this change is not directed at Chen Shuting. She now stays in school every day and teaches those students seriously.

Except I become a little more proactive at night.

And Sun Xiangyang also started a fixed life of two points and one line.

Get up early every day, stand upright, and practice grappling techniques. After dinner, go for a walk around Chagouzi to gain some experience.

Then he took the dragon-seeking ruler and walked around Shuangshui Bay.

In the afternoon, I basically repeated what I did in the morning.

Originally, according to Sun Xiangyang's plan, this winter was mainly to reclaim the black land and strive to reclaim it before the year.

But with the addition of Shapingba, the progress was doubled and the time required was greatly reduced.

We can't finish the work and start the cat winter, right?

In Sun Xiangyang's view, this is undoubtedly a waste.

There is a saying that time waits for me, so Sun Xiangyang thought of finding something for everyone to do.

He had previously told Su Huiwan to stay here and help Shuangshuiwan develop. He was not simply perfunctory and showing off himself, but he really had this intention.

Shuangshuiwan is his basic base, the anchoring location of the system. Only by working hard to develop here, making Shuangshuiwan's territory larger and larger, and its population increasing, can he gain enough experience points in the future.

Regarding his idea of ​​finding something to do for everyone, the old party secretary undoubtedly fully supported him and allowed him to go ahead and do it boldly. If the sky fell, he would hold it up.

On this day, Sun Xiangyang stood on the high slope south of Shuangshui Bay, looking at the intertwined dragon-seeking rulers, his face full of surprise.

　Chapter One!
  　　I stayed up too late last night. When I woke up this morning, my head felt like it was going to explode. I took a measure and found out that I had a slight fever. Then I went to the pharmacy to get some medicine. I slept in a daze all day, so the update is late.

　　As for the second chapter, I will try my best to write it now, but I can’t guarantee it. But don’t worry, gentlemen, if you support me so much, then I will definitely do my best.
