Scholars in the courtyard

Hearing what Yang Xiaotao said, everyone around him became wary.

This is a cement pipe, and it is difficult to smash it with a hammer.

If a child really falls in, there's a good chance it won't work.

"This village has already told us that barriers will be placed at the wellheads. When the pressure wells come, they will be sealed immediately after installation."

"Besides, who dares to go to the Huohuo well to take him home and have his butt beaten?"

Mr. Yang said, and Yang Dazhuang beside him was deeply impressed.

These wild boys cannot be remembered without education with sticks.

After the well was dug, a villager was left to watch, while everyone packed up and rushed to the next location.

At this rate, if the cement pipes can keep up and the pipes are drilled while drilling wells, it will not be a problem to drill three or four wells in one day.

Compared with manual well drilling, it is ten times more efficient.

He hitched up the donkey cart and started walking.

Yang Xiaotao sat with Mr. Yang, "If you don't go back and take a look, Director Gao is looking for you."

"Don't worry, I'll go back after confirming the place to fetch water."

Mr. Yang was silent when he heard a shout from afar.

The team stopped and saw Yang Hui running up to them.

"Village chief, Uncle Jiu said that a chief will come to inspect the work and ask you to go back and prepare quickly."

"Coming soon!"

Yang Dazhuang jumped out of the car, "Chief? Where did he come from?"

"I don't know. Uncle Jiu said it was Director Gao who told you to go back quickly."

"good."

Yang Dazhuang looked back at Yang Xiaotao, nodded and said he was leaving.

At this time, another child ran over from the same place, it was Yang Dazhuang's eldest son.

"Dad, Grandpa, Brother Tao, Uncle Jiu asked you all to go back, and several leaders were mentioned."

Everyone was confused again, what is going on?

"Let's go, no matter who is coming, let's go and take a look."

Mr. Yang jumped off the donkey cart and walked quickly.

Yang Xiaotao pointed not far away, told Zhou Kui and others about the two general locations, and asked them to work on it first while he followed behind and walked towards the village.

Not long after, several people came to the brigade headquarters and after asking about the situation, they were very surprised.

The person from the Ministry of Agriculture is right, but what is going on when the superiors from the steel rolling mill come?

Well drilling machine? Not that much.

Yang Xiaotao was also surprised and could only wait at the entrance of the village with Mr. Yang Yang Dazhuang and his party.

The surrounding fields were busy, some were bending down, some were resting with their heads raised, and a group of people were holding up the sun and waving hoes.

After a while, a small black dot appeared not far away, and then the black dot approached, and everyone recognized it as a jeep.

Gradually, people around him stopped working and looked over.

The car stopped at the entrance of the village. A young secretary wearing military green clothes got out of the car, then opened the door and walked out of a short old man.

Wearing a gray formal suit, with a hat on his head, and a resolute face, he strode forward.

Gao Yufeng immediately stepped forward, followed by Mr. Yang, Yang Dazhuang and Yang Xiaotao.

Everyone learned from Gao Yufeng that this person was the leader who came to inspect, Mr. Tao.

"Chief!"

"This is the old branch secretary of the farm Yangjiazhuang, this is the village chief, and this is Comrade Yang Xiaotao."

As Gao Yufeng spoke, Mr. Tao stepped forward and said in a loud voice, "Hello, hello, comrades!"

With that said, he walked up to Mr. Yang. They were both about the same age and both had age spots on their faces.

"Hello, Chief!"

Mr. Yang raised his hand and saluted, "Former North China Miyun Detachment, 13 Zong Dui, 131 Tuan, 4 Ying, veteran Yang Yaoqing, salute you!"

"Ni boss's soldiers?"

"Yes, Chief!"

Tao Lao returned the greeting, and then the two held hands together.

"Is your body still strong?"

Tao Lao Qingsheng asked, and Mr. Yang nodded, "It's okay. Nowadays, I can sleep peacefully and eat hot food. I can't even dream of it."

"Okay, that's fine, fine, that's fine!"

Then he looked at Yang Dazhuang.

"Hello, Chief!"

"Yes, he is full of energy and murderous intent. He is a good soldier."

"Defend your home and country and never retreat!"

Yang Dazhuang shouted the slogan he once charged, and his eyes became moist.

"Commando?"

"yes!"

"Okay, good job!"

The two shook hands and then looked at Yang Xiaotao.

"Hello, Chief!"

"Comrade Yang Xiaotao. I have heard this name several times, and it surprises me every time. This time I finally met someone."

"Yes, there is a kind of vitality of new youth."

"Thank you for the compliment, chief."

After looking at Yang Xiaotao again, Mr. Tao returned to the topic, "I heard this time that you built a well drilling machine that can pump out water in less than a day? How can our crops survive without water?"

"I heard that this well-drilling machine is very good. I came here this time to see how good it is."

Mr. Tao said that he was going to conduct an on-site inspection, but Gao Yufeng on the side stepped forward solemnly, "Chief, Mr. Xia will be here soon."

"Lao Xia? What is he here for?"

Mr. Tao was surprised when he heard this, and then looked at Yang Xiaotao, with a vague suspicion in his heart.

"Little belly chicken intestines."

Tao Lao said that although Yang Xiaotao is very good, he will not use his power to overwhelm others and poach them.

This old Xia is becoming more and more narrow-minded.

I was complaining in my heart, and two black spots soon appeared not far away.

Everyone looked again.

There are more cars coming today.

Soon, two jeeps parked next to the car. Yang Youning and Zhao Chuanjun got out of the car, and then Mr. Xia also got out of the car.

When he saw the jeep in front of him, Mr. Xia was wondering in his heart. Until he saw a familiar figure, Mr. Xia's face immediately became serious.

A few people got out of the car, and Gao Yufeng and others came up to see them again.

After the report, Mr. Xia was very polite to Mr. Yang and others, with a leadership-like smile on his face.

Then when they faced Yang Xiaotao, they held hands and talked for a long time.

Yang Xiaotao felt flattered.

Later, Yang Xiaotao and others met with the superior leaders of the steel rolling mill, Yang Youning and Zhao Chuanjun.

There were suddenly a lot more people at the entrance of the village, and the people busy around looked at it with excitement.

They all came by jeep, so they must be big shots.

We rarely see a few people in their village all year round, but today, so many people came.

Speaking of it to people from other villages, I feel honored.

"Old Tao, you are one step ahead again!"

Mr. Xia walked up to Mr. Tao, and the two met like old friends, but their angry words were not rude.

"The reason why we are ahead or not is because the people below speak quickly, so we come early."

After saying that, Gao Yufeng took a look and was very satisfied.

Yang Youning, who was behind Mr. Xia, was stunned, with a wry smile on his face.

If this happens again in the future, you must report it in advance.

"You're right, my subordinates are careful, and it saves us trouble and worry."

"Look, the boys in our steel rolling mill are doing very well. They have produced so many things, which I heard are very helpful for agricultural production!"

Lao Jiang Xia pronounced the words "young man from the steel rolling mill" clearly, which meant that he was from the steel rolling mill.

You old Tao, don't get it wrong.

Mr. Tao snorted coldly.

"We are all working hard for the country's construction. We move wherever we need it. I still understand this principle."

He pushed back neither softly nor hard, and the scene was a little awkward.

Yang Xiaotao secretly hid behind Yang Youning. Yang Youning was so angry, why are you hiding behind me? I still want to hide.

"Two chiefs, let's go to the village first."

The leader of the steel rolling mill stepped forward and said peace. The two looked at each other and then smiled together.

"Yes, let's go in and take a look."

"Let's go, Lao Xia. This is your first time on this farm. I'll show you around."

"It's like you came twice."

"It doesn't matter, Xiao Gao, hurry up and introduce our farm to Mr. Xia."

"Lao Yang, let's go together."

Mr. Tao shouted to Gao Yufeng and called Mr. Yang up. He could see that Mr. Yang had a high status here. Being close to him was like having a pulse.

The three of them walked towards the village together, followed by Yang Youning and others. Yang Dazhuang pulled Yang Xiaotao aside.

"Xiao Tao, so many leaders are here, how can we entertain them?"

"The standards in our village are not up to the standard."

Yang Dazhuang was a little ashamed. The only things the village could produce were stick noodles and leftover pig rinds from the New Year.

The pig skin was peeled off in order to keep the hair and use it as a brush.

Now, the village, that is, the pigskins, are offering hospitality.

"Uncle Da Zhuang, I will solve this problem."

Yang Xiaotao said calmly, not to mention that there was a lot of food in the space, but even the things brought back from home were enough for entertaining.

Besides, if the food is too good, it will not be beautiful.

These old revolutionaries valued hardship and simplicity, diligence and frugality.

"Later, you ask my aunt to call a few people to my house and tell Qiuye that I can use the things."

"For pasta, just make noodles, or two-joint noodles. This is convenient."

"Several leaders went to my home. Others were arranged to stay at the brigade headquarters."

Yang Xiaotao said, Yang Dazhuang nodded and hurried back to prepare.

In front, the three of them walked towards the village under the guidance of Gao Yufeng. Mr. Tao was talking to Mr. Yang and asked about the work on the farm.

Mr. Xia on the side looked around and looked at the people in the village.

Unlike other villages, the children in this village are very quiet and not as restless as other villages.

Yes, it's restlessness.

The kind of restlessness that has nothing to do and just wants to play.

In addition, Mr. Xia also saw many children gathered together. They were sitting on the millstone with their heads together.

When I sat down and took a closer look, I saw that I was actually reading a book?

This was the first time he had seen this scene in so many years.

"You opened a primary school?"

Mr. Xia asked, and Mr. Yang who was talking immediately nodded.

"Yes, we built two houses just outside the village."

When talking about school, Mr. Yang was very excited.

In his life, he has been on the battlefield, fought against landlords and warlords, fought hard for most of his life, lost a lot, and gained a lot of honor, but these are all to protect the homeland and the country, which is the duty of the nation.

The duty of a Yanhuang people.

And the one thing that made him feel proud and proud was this school.

At this moment, Mr. Yang began to introduce the situation of the school.

From the initial preparation, it was difficult to maintain. At that time, there was only one teacher and one part-time teacher.

There were no formal classrooms and insufficient teaching materials, but that was it, they gritted their teeth and persevered.

Now, there are more classrooms in schools, more students, and more teachers.

Mr. Yang looked at the children reading on the side with a happy smile on his face.

Mr. Tao, Mr. Xia and others on the side listened and watched quietly.

Busy people have contented smiles on their faces.

The quiet children read the book, and from time to time the unique laughter of children could be heard.

Everything is so harmonious.

This place is different from other villages.

Here, they feel a special feeling, like planting a sapling and then waiting quietly for it to sprout and grow, and finally become a towering tree.

An old revolutionary can find the value of life and something to be proud of.

where are they?

Where are the things that make them proud and have a clear conscience?

For a moment, the two of them asked themselves in their hearts, looking for answers.
