The days when I came to the countryside were almost immutable. In addition to the usual work, I was chatting with people in the village. In the mouth of the villagers, Zhou Zekai knew that the village of Pinghua was really poor. There was only one sewing machine in the village, and it was still full. The villagers bought it together, and the villagers used it together. Otherwise, the villagers were slower to make clothes without this thing. There are several villages around that are even poorer than Pinghua Village. They have to come over to borrow sewing machines. It's just that you have to give the villagers some grain and the like after each borrowing.
As for the bicycle that Zhou Zekai asked about ... well, sorry, there is absolutely no such thing!
Bicycles are rare in the city these days, let alone in this small mountain village? There is a sewing machine that has made the villagers better than the people in the surrounding villages. What about two hundred bikes? They ca n’t afford to save this money in this small village, and the road in this village is so bad, how can it be suitable for riding that kind of expensive stuff! In case it breaks, it's heartbreaking!
"Epigenetics, did you ride a bicycle when you were in the city? What about that thing? I heard that people walk and fly like they ride ..."
The old man in the village chats with Zhou Zekai and asks the outside world curiously. The other villagers are listening with their ears. In fact, they all know that these people in the city look down on them. The educated youths have their eyes on their heads. Only Comrade Zhou Xiao is a villager who doesn't hate them. So many times, the villagers secretly give Zhou Zekai some home-made souvenirs, and he likes to hear the stories in the city.
After all, that's a world they've never seen before. Even if they haven't been there, a long experience is always okay?
They also don't want their children and grandchildren to live in such a small ditch forever. They expect their children to have a better and more perfect future!
"Grandpa Zhang, it's all fake. How can it be the same as flying?" Zhou Zekai laughed. If it is an exercise bike, it is really possible to break the limit, but like today's bicycle, plus the kind of road, Zhou Zekai really thinks Not to mention flying, it's faster than people, and it's terrible.
However, when facing the eyes of the villagers, Zhou Zekai did not say so, but said.
"Bikes feel like two or three times faster than people walking. Two or three times faster means that a person can walk one mile, but a bicycle can ride two or three miles, depending on whether the cyclist is there. Strength, the one who pedals the wheels with two pedals. "
Speaking of bicycles to everyone, the villagers nearby were very curious, and Yang Yuehua, who had come to listen to the other person ’s speech, was also very curious. She really felt that the man in front of him was really amazing! He knows so much! It's as if ... it's as if there is nothing he doesn't know ...
Looking at Zhou Zekai in a daze, he suddenly found that the man's eyes were looking at himself, and Yang Yuehua immediately lowered her head, and her face was a little hot. She felt that this man was completely different from those in the village ...
"Oh so fast ..."
The villagers around were shocked. It was too fast to go one mile to two mile away! At this moment, traffic generally depends on people, and communication basically depends on howling. I learned that there is such a novelty that villagers are curious and looking forward to it, thinking that one day they can ride on something called a bicycle. .
Soon, the crowd dispersed again, and it was time to go to work again. Zhou Zekai was accustomed to this kind of work. Instead, he didn't feel tired. He bent down with a sickle, and gently loosened the egg in his hand with one hand. He laughed, but he did not expect that this girl was quite fun. So many people dare to put eggs on themselves, and they were not afraid to refuse to answer.
However, since it was a good intention of others, Zhou Zekai naturally accepted it, put it in his pocket, and planned to wait until home before eating.
It was another afternoon job. Zhou Zekai, who had been ranked No. 1 in labor points for a long time, entered the village in less than half a month and was accepted by the villagers. At the same time, he was completely rejected by the educated youths. No educated youths were willing Talking to Zhou Zekai, in their hearts, this person betrayed their organization.
After eating the porridge, Zhou Zekai did not plan to go home today, and after asking the villager's home location, a person walked towards the village head's house. He actually had a small plan for getting rich and getting rich, wasn't it just a bicycle? As a terrible man with strong hands-on ability, Zhou Zekai fully grasped this thing. You must know that Zhou Zekai is a person who has modified the car himself. If the bicycle cannot be obtained, he should really jump off the building ...
On the way, Zhou Zekai ate the eggs given by Yang Yuehua during the day, thinking about the conditions of the Yang family, she didn't know how, she gave herself an egg a day, and she didn't know if she had eaten it.
With such an idea, Zhou Zekai came to the door of Yang's house. Although there was no one at the door, he stood outside and shouted.
"Is the village chief Yang?"
Soon after, a middle-aged woman with a similar appearance to Yang Yuehua walked out, and smiled as soon as she saw him.
"Are you Comrade Zhou? Come in quickly, Lao Yang will be back in a while. You sit and wait for him, have you eaten?"
Mother Yang was entertaining Zhou Zekai. She was very enthusiastic. She had heard her husband praise the things about Comrade Zhou several times before. Thinking about her daughter's life-long events, Mother Yang was very welcome to Zhou Zekai's arrival.
"I don't need my aunt. I have already eaten. I've asked Mr. Yang for something. Can I wait for him here?"
Zhou Zekai politely greeted his mother, and then saw Yang mother nodded with a smile.
"Yes, yes, why not? You're waiting in the room, I'll get you some water ..."
Looking at this child's pure and polite appearance, Yang mother looked more and more like it. I just felt that if my girl married such a person, she was really satisfied. She also took the brown sugar at home and poured it. I hope Zhou Zekai can drink happily.
A large bowl of brown sugar water was placed in front of Zhou Zekai, and Zhou Zekai thanked Mother Yang very much. He also knew that in the countryside, this brown sugar was a precious thing.
"Auntie, I'm really bothering you. I have nothing to give you. This is a small gift I bought before I went to the countryside. I hope you will like it."
Zhou Zekai took out a small box stacked on his body, which contained an embroidered silk scarf, which Zhou Zekai had originally bought for his mother before going to the countryside, but later saw that the mother was crying so sadly, and was afraid to make her more sad So I brought it down and it came in handy now.
Mother Yang was shocked when she heard this, but she didn't expect that she just gave a glass of water, and others gave her a gift, or a small gift bought in the city! This made Yang's mother more cautious and dare not take it.
"Don't, Comrade Zhou, I've received your thoughts, but you can take this gift yourself, ah, I can't accept it."
The people in the village are more real. Mother Yang really doesn't think she should receive gifts from others.
"Auntie, please accept it. Since I went to the countryside, I have been taken care of by the village chief Yang, and I have to rely on the village chief Yang. If you do n’t accept it, I dare not come to the village chief ... ... "
Zhou Zekai's mind turned faster than the women in the village. What this said at the moment was hard to refuse, and put things directly in the mother's hands. He believed that the mother would let this silk scarf see him. Light.
This ribbon was bought by Zhou Zekai for a dollar, and it can be considered very expensive. It can be said that, let alone in the village, that is in the city, it is also the only one, but the mother Yang could only receive things and decided After her husband comes back, she must take good care of this child. Although she doesn't know what the gift is, she feels soft and thinks it is a woman's home.
After waiting for a while, at the urging of Yang's mother, Zhou Zekai drank the brown sugar water, and then waited for the village chief Yang Yang who came home and followed the village chief Yang Yuehua.
"Comrade Zhou Xiao? Why are you here?"
The Mayor Yang Cun saw Zhou Zekai's excitement and a smile on his face. Obviously, he had a good impression on Zhou Zekai.
"Mayor Yang, this is the case. I have something to discuss with you."
Zhou Zekai thinks about his own plan for making a bicycle. No matter how long it takes, as long as one is made, it will be worth a lot of money to sell ...
"What is the village chief! Just call Uncle Yang, sit down and say."
There are rules in the village. When a man speaks, a woman cannot be on the side, so Mother Yang and her daughter quickly go to the back room and leave the space to Yang Village Chief and Zhou Zekai.
"This is Uncle Yang. I want to ask, is there anything in our village to make iron? I want to make something myself."
It's too weird to say that I can make a bicycle now. Zhou Zekai plans to wait until the bicycle is ready.
"Iron making? Why do you use this? But ... our village has a big iron, which is the old cow's house. If you need it, I can show you over."
Knowing that the people in the city have many ideas, Uncle Yang asked after a while and found that it was wrong, so he did not follow up.
"Thank you, Uncle Yang. I want to check it out and do something. In fact, I live in Houshan and I am really scared. It is better to make some weapons to protect myself."
This is the reason for Zhou Zekai. As soon as he said this, the village chief Yang understood it and said quickly.
"Otherwise, don't bother you. It's really remote where you live. How about living in my house? There are also two empty houses on my side. They are guaranteed not to affect you."
This is to put Zhou Zekai under his eyelids, and let other people pick this fruit ahead of time. Yang Cun smiled, thinking of his daughter's shy appearance these days, he knew that it was Zhou Zekai.
When Zhou Zekai heard this, he was speechless, but still explained.
"Uncle Yang, I really don't need it. If I live here, those people who came with me should gossip again. I don't want to make trouble for Uncle Yang. You can rest assured that I can protect myself."
Zhou Zekai's considerate person also made Yang Village Chief appreciate Zhou Zekai more. At the same time, he also felt that the other party must become his son-in-law!
As for the room, Mother Yang took out the gift from Zhou Zekai and planned to take a look with her daughter ...
