Chapter 363

After new year's Eve.

On the first day of the new year, I want to go out to pay New Year's greetings.

According to custom.

Comrade Xiong Xiaocai got up early and was busy cooking. At about five o'clock, he knocked on the door, shouted Zhong Tianzheng Ah Xiang, sat around the table and began to eat.

A rich table of delicious food is destined to make people move their fingers.

Dumplings with egg skin and meat filling are standard.

Seven thirty in the morning.

Everyone packed up, cut off the water and electricity in the room, and then set out directly to rush to Comrade Xiong Xiaocai's hometown two hours away.

After two hours of high-speed running, I finally came to my destination.

In recent years, the country's infrastructure has been gradually improved. The slogan "build roads before you get rich" has provided practical convenience to the people.

Comrade Xiong Xiaocai's hometown is a small village deep in the mountains. He has to go through a long section of mountain climbing Road from the town. Since the road was repaired, he has gone up a lot faster, and the road is easy to go.

Zhong Tianzheng is in charge of driving. Ah Xiang sits in the co pilot, and the old couple of Comrade Xiong Xiaocai are in the back seat.

"No."

Zhong Tianzheng drove the car, put it into gear and backed up, making way for the car coming down from the village.

"What's wrong."

Comrade Xiong Xiaocai was in a happy mood and asked casually.

"Design, unreasonable design."

Zhong Tianzheng pressed the window and put his head out. "Look, this road is big and big. The traffic lane of a single lane is not big enough to make complaints about. It may be considered that when the design is concerned, the traffic may not be high and the utilization rate is low."

Comrade Xiong Xiaocai also hasn't come back for some years, so he is mostly happy and doesn't consider these: "isn't this normal? It's good to have a cement road in the countryside. It's also the requirements of this and that."

"Last point."

Zhong Tianzheng naturally has no what to make complaints about: "how many years has this road been designed?"

"I find you are so wordy."

Comrade Xiong Xiaocai was a little impatient. Looking at the car slowly driving by, he thought a little: "more than two years? Yes, it was more than two years. When the road was built, the government subsidized the big head, and then each family gave a little more money. In our family, we gave three, one thousand. "

"There are so many people in this village, plus subsidies, that's a lot of money?"

Zhong Tianzheng muttered and turned the steering wheel to continue driving up: "but pay attention to the road. Many places are cracked and the gap is so big. When you look at the side, it's all broken and rotten, just like paper paste. There won't always be big trucks passing by in the village. "

"It seems that it is."

Ah Xiang raised her head and looked out from the windshield: "generally speaking, the service life of a highway is more than three years? It has rotted like this in three years. If this road is placed in the city and large trucks drive, it will be ruined in less than half a year. "

"All right, all right."

Comrade Xiong Xiaocai waved his hand and didn't want to mention it at all: "I said two police officers, we're here to visit relatives, not the quality inspection and acceptance Bureau."

"Yes, yes, yes."

Zhong Tianzheng answered and finally stopped talking.

After driving for about five minutes, the car finally drove smoothly.

Far away.

The outline of the countryside was presented to us.

On the gate at the entrance of the village, "Pengjia village" came into view.

Comrade Xiong Xiaocai's life experience is also quite bumpy.

Her father died of illness when she was very young, and then remarried here with her mother and formed together with another family, but the family was not perfect. Her stepfather was not good to her and liked drinking.

When Comrade Xiong Xiaocai was young, every time her stepfather drank too much, she had to suffer and was often beaten.

At that time, everyone meant to live together. Their feelings were not very deep, and their family relations were naturally disharmonious.

When he grew up, his mother died, and Comrade Xiong Xiaocai seldom came back here after graduating from college.

According to her own words, the grace of raising is more than enough, but to say how deep the father daughter relationship is, it must be false, so she doesn't want to pay emotionally, but is willing to undertake her own obligations economically.

The reason why I came back this time.

It was because Comrade Xiong Xiaocai's half brother accepted his daughter-in-law and specially invited her, so she was pleased to be invited.

After all.

When I was a child, I lived together for so many years. Even if there is no blood relationship, my feelings are still a little.

Besides.

She hasn't come back for a long time. It's time to come back.

"It's the first one next to the village."

Comrade Xiong Xiaocai commanded Zhong Tianzheng to drive to the outer yard of the first family at the entrance of the village. There were a lot of firecrackers left in the open space.

Someone came out of the room and greeted them warmly.

"Call me uncle."

Comrade Xiong Xiaocai took out a pile of gifts prepared in the trunk and introduced the man in front of Zhong Tianzheng to him.

Zhong Tianzheng knows this man, Peng Jin, but he doesn't have much impression.

After greeting, it's natural to set off firecrackers.

The next occasion is basically a lively and polite process. We greet each other with smiles, greet each other, or hand over cigarettes to each other, and casually talk about some topics that kill time.

Now the trend of social development is like this. More and more people are running to the city. Sometimes relatives may not see it for several years. Over time, the feelings naturally become weaker and weaker. Many people are basically strangers and don't know each other.

Over the years, Comrade Xiong Xiaocai has developed well, found a good husband and good family conditions, so they are undoubtedly more popular. Zhong Tianzheng Ah Xiang, who came back with his girlfriend, naturally received more attention.

I managed to cope with this one. They were called physically and mentally tired. They looked at the gap and drove away directly.

The road is just outside my uncle's house, and the reservoir is opposite.

Opposite the reservoir is a high mountain, covered with snow.

"Hoo."

Ah Xiang took a deep breath and looked at the misty water: "well, it's really good in the countryside. The air is much fresher."

"That's certainly not. Rural areas also have rural advantages."

Zhong Tianzheng felt a cigarette from his pocket and lit it: "do you regret coming here with me?"

"There's nothing to regret. I think it's very good. At least it's lively. Staying in Shangnan has no atmosphere for the new year." Ah, Xiang still feels very interesting at this point: "I think this is called the new year. Only when it is in full swing in twos and threes can there be an atmosphere."

"That's good."

Zhong Tian nodded and didn't say any more.

According to the original schedule.

The purpose of their coming here is to have a wedding wine and pay a new year's call, and leave the next day.

Who knows.

What happened next had to change the plan.
