The fat director and the commune leaders all looked at Chang Gui and the three village party secretaries. They didn't understand what it meant. If you set off more firecrackers, you should set off more firecrackers, or else don't set off any firecrackers. What does this mean?
Chang Gui made them feel a little embarrassed, so Jiang Hua stood up and said, "This is a signal to the people at the gate that they can open the gate and release the water."
After a while, someone shouted: "The water is coming."
The people around were shocked and rushed to the edge of the canal to watch the excitement. A water dragon rushed from a distance.
The sound of running water was more pleasant than any music. After a while, the water fell from the canal into the reservoir. Seeing that water began to accumulate in the reservoir, people began to cheer.
The gongs and drums were beaten again to make cheerful sounds, and people whispered happily while watching the water in the reservoir slowly increase.
The fat director looked at Jiang Hua at this time: "Little comrade, I remember you. I told Chang Gui that when the reservoir is completed, I will let you join the organization at the completion ceremony. Now is the perfect time."
Chang Gui immediately responded: "Yes, we have already prepared it."
Immediately, members of the village organization unfurled an organizational flag. Jiang Hua stood in front of the flag and read the declaration word for word along with Chang Gui.
When the last word fell, everyone around him applauded.
The fat director took a few commune cadres, three village party secretaries, and Jiang Hua up the river and saw deep pits every 100 meters and asked, "Why do we have to dig so many deep pits?"
Jiang Hua said: "The cement and sand content in Wuding River is quite high. These deep pits are used to settle sediment."
The fat director nodded, "Very good, very thoughtful."
The fat director was not too tired. He walked all the way to the sluice gate and inspected the entire water diversion project before happily returning to Ishikawa Village.
Chang Gui naturally entertains a good meal. Today's Ishikawa Village is not comparable to what it was two years ago. There are more than 500 chickens raised in the village. They only sell eggs to the supply and marketing cooperative, which makes a lot of money every month. Income.
So this time Chang Guiyi ruthlessly killed five chickens to entertain the leaders, and their mouths were full of oil after eating.
After the fat director and the commune cadres left, Jiang Hua said, "Secretary Chang, I'm afraid you're going to make a mistake this time."
"What?"
"The commune cadres see that our village is rich, and they are afraid that they will have to fight against the autumn wind from time to time."
Chang Gui said confidently: "Don't be afraid, it doesn't matter if you come once or twice, but whoever dares to come all the time, I'm so ashamed that he doesn't dare to see his ancestors."
The small reservoir was filled with water in two days. After closing the gate, the water level has not dropped significantly. It seems that the reservoir is quite successful.
The Fat Director held another commendation meeting. Jiang Hua, Chang Gui, Bai Laowu, and Zhou Yuhai all wore big red flowers. The Fat Director stood in the middle, and another group photo was taken.
Not long after, the photos of the fat director digging with a shovel and holding a commendation meeting were published in newspapers. Naturally, he showed his face in front of his superiors. He must be said to be more skilled.
The first snowfall of the year was quite heavy. The cold weather made the whole village shiver, but no one was unhappy.
Auspicious snow heralds a good year. If it snows so heavily, there will definitely be no insect infestation next year. In addition, with the reservoir just repaired this year, it will definitely be a good year.
Ishikawa Village is very lively this year because everyone has some extra money and has made a lot of money from selling eggs. In addition, there is also a lot of money from the unified grain purchase. Old and young men can pull pieces of cloth to make new clothes for their wives and children.
Each of the educated youths could get some, although it was not much, but everyone was quite contented and pooled some money together to prepare New Year's goods. Jiang Hua volunteered to do the shopping. Everyone knew Jiang Hua's kindness. Although he was a little embarrassed, he couldn't stand it. Jianghua's enthusiasm.
Large pieces of pork belly were bought from the black market, as well as fish, mutton, candies, pastries, and a piece of cloth for each of them.
The young woman was so happy when she got the cloth. She has been here for two years and still wears clothes brought from home. Now that she has cloth, she can make new clothes.
The man didn't know whether to laugh or cry. If you give me cloth, I won't be able to make clothes. It can be used as a rag, but it's a waste of material.
"You are a bunch of deadheads, you can't do it, and their women can't do it either. So what's wrong with trying to please, beg, and ask people to make your clothes for you?"
Zhao Dayong and Qian Zhiming's eyes lit up and they immediately walked towards the women's dormitory. When they arrived, they discovered that Zheng Tong had already made a preemptive move.
Zheng Tong begged in a low voice: "Jiang Biyun, please do me a favor and help me make my clothes. If there is any rough or heavy work in the next six months, just say hello to me."
Zhao Dayong quickly echoed: "Yes, yes, you women only need to help me make clothes. Within half a year next year, I can do whatever I want."
The girls looked at each other, and Jiang Biyun said: "It's okay to help, but you have to line up the order, whoever you help first, who you help later."
Zheng Tong immediately said: "I proposed it first. I am the most sincere. Help me do it first."
"Pooh."
Jiang Biyun spat at Zheng Tong and said angrily: "You are ungrateful. I forgot who bought the cloth. We girls have agreed not to make our own clothes first, but to help Jiang Hua make one first."
Zhao Dayong immediately added insult to injury: "Yes, Jiang Hua is the first to do it, and he should definitely be the first to do it. After finishing you three women, then mine. As for Zheng Tong, the ungrateful one who did it last."
Wang Hong said: "There is also little Ning Wei, Ning Wei is in front of you."
Cao Yang nodded, "Okay, I'm behind Zhao Dayong."
In the days before the New Year, the boys did all the work, serving the girls food and drink, as long as they made clothes.
The girls also worked hard, and finally had all their clothes sewn before the year, and each of them wore a straight Mao suit.
This man relied on his clothes and his saddle. After putting on his new clothes, he suddenly became more energetic. Zheng Tong was not only energetic, but also nervous, because his clothes were the last to be made, and he was really looking forward to wearing them.
This New Year in Ishikawa Village is definitely a pleasant one. Every house is freshly painted, and the children also have new clothes. Those who usually work hard have better family conditions, and even adults can wear new clothes.
Moreover, from the 24th to the 24th, there were always villagers carrying this basket to the cave dwellings of educated youths. One brought some steamed buns, the other some hemp leaves. Chang Gui also brought a lot of fried cakes. Later, even Bai Laowu and Zhou Yuhai They all brought some snacks.
This is reciprocation. This time I am showing my face with them, so I have to show something.
On New Year's Eve, the educated young people toasted together to wish that life would be better next year. At this time, the sound of firecrackers sounded outside, which reminded them of the silence on New Year's Eve last year. Everyone's face was filled with this smile. They firmly believed that tomorrow would be the best. is wonderful.
