Life in a quiet village in Xianshan

After taking Li Fanghai to the door, Gu Siwei gently raised his hand and knocked on the door.

"Is there anyone at home?"

"Someone, someone, the fourth dimension."

After a while, Xia Tingfang ran out of the house.

Opening the door suddenly, Xia Tingfang was about to say something. When she saw Li Fanghai standing at the door, she said in surprise: "Are you Uncle Li?"

Li Fanghai smiled and said, "Have you seen me?"

At this point, he turned to Gu Siwei and said, "I don't remember her. I have memory problems at this age."

Gu Siwei said: "Where is this?"

Xia Tingfang said quickly: "I have never seen you. You were no longer in the village when I got married. There are photos of you at home. Come in quickly. Don't stay at the door. Come into the yard."

As he said this, Xia Tingfang opened his door completely and waved everyone into the courtyard.

Li Fanghai followed Xia Tingfang into the yard. He first looked at the environment in the yard, and then asked Xia Tingfang, "Did your family tidy up this yard by yourself?"

Xia Tingfang smiled and said: "How can we do this? It was requested by Zhuangzi at the beginning. We all thought it was unnecessary. We still had some objections. But later we got used to doing things, and then we felt that we were living like this." So comfortable!"

While talking, Xia Tingfang started pouring water for everyone.

Li Fanghai smiled and said: "Everyone has developed the habit of drinking hot water now, which is better than when I was here."

Xia Tingfang explained while pouring tea for everyone: "Cold water is not hygienic. Although the water we receive in Zhuangzi is mountain spring water, it is better to boil it, otherwise there will inevitably be some bugs."

Hearing this, Li Fanghai asked Gu Siwei: "Should I drink water from Zhuangzi or carry it?"

Gu Siwei said: "We are ready to change it. Once the power generation room over there is installed, every house will be connected to electricity soon. By then, tap water and other things will be connected. I didn't see the east side. Has the big water tower over there been built? We are just waiting for the generator equipment to be in place."

With that said, Gu Siwei pointed to the east.

When you sit in the yard of Xia Tingfang's house and look up, you can see the water tower that has been built on the east mountain of the village. This water tower is an all-cement building. It is slightly different in appearance from the water towers in ordinary places. That is, the water tower looks like It's a mushroom with a big umbrella.

After the power generation room is installed and electricity is available, this water tower can provide water to all the houses in the village. Once the water supply is available, the villagers will no longer have to scoop water out of toilets and other things at home.

"When will the generator be in place?" Li Fanghai asked again.

Gu Siwei said: "We are already on the way. If you come a few days later, you might be able to see the electricity on Zhuangzi."

The generator seems to be a simple thing, but Gu Siwei is planning to buy it from abroad. Once this thing involves importing it from abroad, even if Gu Siwei pays for it, it will be a bit troublesome, and various approvals and other matters are required. , even if Gu Siwei's relationship is strong, under the current conditions, the process will take several months.

Therefore, things that were supposed to be put in place immediately have been delayed until now, and the generator is still on the way.

But we are almost seeing the light of day, because the generator has been unloaded at the dock in the provincial capital. If it goes quickly, it will probably be loaded onto the truck and shipped here by now.

After hearing Gu Siwei's introduction, Li Fanghai said hello several times.

Next, Li Fanghai asked Xia Tingfang again what the family's income was for about a year now, and Xia Tingfang answered honestly.

After sitting for about twenty minutes, Li Fanghai left Xia Tingfang's home and walked up the steps. Some people with elderly people at home knew Li Fanghai, and Li Fanghai would even interact with them a little more.

Now the layout of Zhuangzi is different from before. In the past, almost all the houses were placed along the river bank. Now they are almost divided into three floors and scattered in an orderly manner. There is a distance of twenty or thirty meters between two houses. .

Each family has a small vegetable patch about three-thirds of the land, and there are also several small flower beds at home. The weather at the moment is the time of year when flowers bloom the most, so every family looks very beautiful. .

While watching, Li Fanghai nodded and praised him from time to time.

"Si Dimensional, you built Zhuangzi very well, beyond my expectation! It's completely different from what I had in mind, and it looks a bit European..."

Li Fanghai and Gu Siwei walked around the village and visited almost every house. No one in the family could look through the ancient flower holes in the wall to see what was going on in the yard.

Generally speaking, the countryside at this moment can be described in three words: dirty and messy!

And now there is no place in the Sixth Team's village that has anything to do with these three words. Let alone the countryside, even the sanitary conditions in the provincial capital are not as good as the current Sixth Team's place.

It can be said that it was an eye-opener for Li Fanghai.

Li Fanghai never thought that the countryside could be like this, let alone the group of people who followed Li Fanghai.

"You...when have you been to Europe?" Gu Siwei was a little surprised.

Li Fanghai waved his hand: "At the end of last year, the province organized it and went to France to inquire for a few days... I originally thought that they were doing a very good job there, but I didn't expect that yours was not bad either. Well, it also has our characteristics, white walls and gray tiles, which makes it comfortable to look at."

After catching Gu Siwei, Li Fanghai praised him fiercely.

Gu Siwei smiled and kept saying that he was doing something stupid. In fact, he was self-effacing, but there was no expression of self-effacing on his face.

"This is the school?"

Li Fanghai and Gu Siwei came to the school. At this moment, he no longer dared to recognize him, but he quickly figured out that what he had built at the beginning was still there, but a few more rooms were added one after another, and each time The rooms are larger than those he built at that time, but the style is the same, and the main body is all made of wood. Except for the foundation, not many modern materials are used.

"Later on, several more rooms were built. The library used to be too small. When it rained heavily, physical education classes could not be held. Now more rooms have been built. Look over there, which is the gymnasium room, and over there is the reading room. The room is also the Zhuangzi Library, that side is the computer room, that one is the entertainment room...".

Gu Siwei introduced Xin Xianjian and Li Fanghai one by one.

Gu Siwei hadn't finished the introduction yet, and Hu Yanqiu came over.

Needless to say, Li Fanghai and Hu Yanqiu were much kinder to each other than they were to Gu Siwei.

"Okay, you stay here, Liangyu. You can take everyone to visit as you like. I'll follow Siwei and Yanqiu back to take a look, so don't follow." Li Fanghai said to Zheng Liangyu and everyone who had been following him.

Secretary Li had spoken, and Zheng Liangyu and others could no longer follow him, so they sent Li Fang to Gu Siwei's family's boat on the sea. Accompanied by Gu Siwei and Hu Yanqiu, they sailed towards Gu Siwei's family.

When they passed the two valleys on the roadside, Li Fanghai went in to take a look and found that even the houses of Guo Shengshou's and Liu Fulin's houses were built in the same style as the houses on Zhuangzi. He smiled and chatted a few words with Gu Siwei and his wife. .

It was obviously easier for everyone to talk without anyone else following them.

When they returned to Gu Siwei's house, Li Fanghai smiled comfortably and said to the two of them: "Yes, this is what it tastes like!"

There were almost no changes in Gu Siwei's house, which made Li Fanghai regain the feeling of living in Gu Siwei's house at that time, and his mood suddenly became more comfortable.

"I thought your family had changed to the following," Li Fanghai said.

Gu Siwei smiled and replied: "I live quite comfortably now, why should I change it?"

"You're making a lot of noise here, I heard it all." Li Fanghai saw that there were still lounge chairs on the old camphor tree, which seemed to be exactly the same as when he left, so he sat down directly.

After finishing speaking, he saw Daju standing under the gallery looking at him, so he waved to Daju and called Daju softly.

Daju immediately recognized Li Fanghai, and brought Xiao ran over to him, rubbing against Li Fanghai's legs and meowing as he did so.

Li Fanghai picked up Daju with his hands and put it on his lap while petting the cat and said, "I didn't expect that you would still remember me, old man, after all these years."

As he said this, Li Fanghai actually took out a piece of meat from his pocket and started feeding Daju.

This move made Gu Siwei a little confused. He looked left and right and thought that at some point Li Fanghai knew how to do his own moves. He took a look in his pocket and found a piece of meat!

"What are you looking at? I ate the leftovers this morning. I wanted to come over to your place to have a look, so I brought a piece with me." Li Fanghai looked at Gu Siwei's expression and explained.

"Such a small piece is enough to feed Da Ju." Gu Siwei nodded and replied.

Hearing what Gu Siwei said, Li Fanghai raised his head again and asked, "Where's Da Mao?"

"At this time? It went into the mountains to fall in love," Gu Siwei said.

After thinking about it for a while, Li Fanghai smiled and said: "That's right, is Da Mao even bigger?"

"He's not that big, but his mind is a lot bigger." Hu Yanqiu happened to come over with a teapot and a bottle of boiling water at this time. When he heard Li Fanghai ask this, he said with a smile.

Li Fanghai laughed.

After chatting for a while and taking a sip of tea, Li Fanghai said: "This tea has to be drunk here to taste. The tea brewed from other places is not very fragrant."

"You have a better life, and you will remember the bitterness and sweetness wherever you go."

Gu Siwei was already lying on another recliner at this time, with his hands behind his head.

Li Fanghai smiled and said: "I can't drink tea like you? You know nothing about tea."

In this regard, Gu Siwei is indeed not as good as these old men. When Gu Siwei drinks tea, he can tell which tea is more fragrant and which tea is more brewed. But when these old men drink tea, it is a serious tea tasting.

Originally, Li Fanghai's temperament couldn't be judged, but after spending a long time with cultural people like Zhou Guangxian, Naihe gradually became able to taste it.

"No more arguing with you, kid. I came here to tell you that although you are doing well here, it is not suitable for publicity..." Li Fanghai and Gu Siwei explained the reason.

The reason is very simple. The development of the Sixth Team is not suitable to be used as a model, and there is no way for others to copy it. Li Fanghai understands it too well. Not only Li Fanghai understands it, but everyone with a discerning eye can also see it.
