Rebirth Autumn Returns to the Countryside

Grandpa Dalong has principles. He shook his head like a rattle and said, "No, that woman's cooking is edible, but she's a chatterbox. I won't let her come back to cause trouble."

That was indeed the case, and it had caused trouble for Leng Yanqiu and her daughter at the time.

Secretary Ma was even happier: "I have an idea for you. You can go to Xiaoqiu's house and buy ready-made food. You can sell it at the door. It only takes a few steps and you don't even need to stock up."

After all, the secretary is knowledgeable and quick-witted. Grandpa Dalong just slapped his forehead and did it!

All the households along this road at the east end of the village were mobilized. Ten or twenty dollars to deposit a car is indeed not a lot of money, but it is like free money. You can make money without delaying anything, only a fool would not rush to do it.

Grandpa Dalong is the most handsome guy in Ma Liu Village today. He has been in and out of the farm several times. Not only does he earn money by watching over and washing cars at his doorstep, he also sells water, pickled eggs, spicy rabbit cubes, and fruits. In addition to the goods, there is a paper sign on the small square table at the doorstep, which lists the services and prices, as well as his mobile phone number. He is busy all day long.

Thanks to the stone road that appeared overnight, Grandpa Dalong rode a small electric tricycle to deliver the goods in a hurry. Feeling proud of himself, he crossed the fish pond and circled around the sluice gate, making another harvest. He also gave the village free advertising, and more fishermen followed suit and circled into the village to release their cars.

No one expected this effect, right? The whole village hastily opened the door to a new world, and then hesitantly and excitedly groped forward, with all kinds of videos and photos in the village group showing off.

There are two cars parked at my house!

My family packed dinner for six people!

We are sitting by the ditch watching the fishermen! Come on, it's cool here and it's comfortable to sit!

His aunts, come quickly and look after the child under the tree. He is sleeping soundly in the stroller!

……

It was getting more and more lively every moment. People from the faraway village who couldn't make any money came to show their support. People from outside came to spread the word and all came to see the rare thing, a pond struck by lightning.

Of course, the rarer hot spring area is closely protected. Master Wu directly provided a simple house to prevent Secretary Ma from getting sunburned.

There are five people on the guard post alone, and they are reluctant to withdraw after dark. Secretary Ma is worried. Master Wu has left two people on the construction site to look after the equipment. There are also a few outsiders who insist on night fishing on both sides. What if they are approached and find the hot spring?

He was even more worried about asking someone else to take care of him. This was a society based on favors. He had made his selfless attitude clear, but Wu Xiangsheng still took advantage of him twice. Once he soaked his head in the water to take advantage of him, and once he took a nap in the hut, the bad boy sneaked in and got a bucket of hot spring water. When Secretary Ma heard the noise and rushed out to chase him, the bad boy was dipping a towel into the bucket, and he took it out and covered his face with it...

Master Wu had no choice but to directly promise to give the simple house to the farm. One house in exchange for one bucket of water, which showed full sincerity.

His wife at home called him several times, and Secretary Ma waited and waited to confirm that Wu Xiangsheng had left before he could relax. He decided to ask Leng Yanqiu to send the dog over, as it shouldn't need to be concerned about the social etiquette.

Leng Yanqiu had no idea that Secretary Ma had put so much thought into this. When she answered the phone, she was listening to Grandma Ding scolding Ding Guihua with great interest, saying that her son and grandson were tired because they helped her with the decoration. How could she ask them to work with the workers? That would be even worse than farming at home. It had been many years since she had seen such a labor intensity that blistered her hands and feet...

Ding Guihua's stammering "I didn't" sounded like the hum of a mosquito. She was too embarrassed to hang up the phone, and she was tortured for nearly half an hour with a frown on her face.

Secretary Ma came to invite Leng Yanqiu to have a detailed discussion next to the hot spring. From the sound of her voice, she seemed to have suffered a lot, hoarse, tired, but still excited.

It’s a pity that I can’t continue to share Grandma Ding’s “love” with my mother.

Leng Yanqiu walked out of the farm, and Zhenbang knew the direction and ran there first. There were two cars parked outside Grandpa Dalong's house. The old man was standing on a stool hanging energy-saving light bulbs outside the gatehouse, smiling warmly and speaking in a loud voice: "Xiaoqiu is out? You and your mother have done a good thing for our village. Grandpa thanks you!"

Leng Yanqiu came forward and held the stool, and asked with a smile: "How much do you earn?"

Grandpa Dalong lowered his voice immediately, and looked around like a thunderbolt, then squatted down and said in a low voice: "Don't tell anyone, idiot!"

Are you sure you're not cursing?

Leng Yanqiu grinned: "Don't work too hard, are you hanging up the lights to work the night shift? You don't want to sleep?"

Grandpa Dalong chuckled, "Old people don't sleep much, so they have to watch the car for others. I thought I'd leave the light on and the door open, so that if someone wants to go home in the middle of the night while fishing, they can call me, right?"

This is an honest man. Charging him ten yuan more for watching the car for one more night is not enough.

Leng Yanqiu did not interfere and continued to stroll towards the hot spring. There were colorful fish floats flashing on both sides of the river. The fishermen who were reluctant to leave were also what Secretary Ma wanted to guard against.

The light of an electric car moved over, stopped, and another voice said, "Xiao Qiu is out?"

"OK."

The man on the bike looked a little strange, but he must be from the same village. He explained shyly, "My old lady at home cooked wontons, and she insisted that I bring a pot over to try and sell."

"Cooking wontons? Will they rot if sent here? Can they be sold?"

The man laughed and said, "It's light at home, so I can just simmer it for a while. I went around and sold six bowls. Hehe, if there are still so many people tomorrow, I'll build a shed and ask my wife to make and cook it now. If I can't sell it, I can eat it at home. It won't delay."

"Then go back and eat. Your family must be waiting for you."

Those who come out with the pot must be thinking of making the best of every shot. If they can't sell it, they will just take it as a ride and then take the pot home and continue eating with their family.

"Hey, thank you family!"

I received a lot of thanks today. Secretary Ma and several village committee cadres squatted by the hot spring, and they were the first to express their gratitude as soon as they met us.

“Xiao Qiu, our village has never been so popular!” Secretary Ma’s voice was hoarse and he felt it was not strong enough, so he added the sound of slapping his thighs, “Tomorrow the leaders of the town also said they would come to the site to take a look. Our farm is now very popular. The leaders found out about it from the short video platform and said that our farm has become a popular check-in place for internet celebrities…”

If this continues, it will be even more popular tomorrow, with more people coming and the villagers will benefit more.

So, what we need to discuss is the management issue and whether or not to give money to the farm.

There is also a more critical issue that has not been resolved, which is the protection of hot springs.

Leng Yanqiu: "I didn't expect this to happen. The farm can cooperate with the village in management, provided that it does not affect the normal development of the farm and my family's normal life."
