The sunshine in 1970 shone on every inch of the Red Flag Brigade, as if covering the land with a layer of golden glow.

Under the careful leadership of He Yuzhu, the Red Flag Brigade is undergoing an earth-shaking change, like a bright pearl shining in the countryside.

He Yuzhu stood beside the vast rice fields at the entrance of the village. The breeze blew, and the rice ears swayed gently, creating layers of golden waves.

His face was filled with a satisfied smile and his eyes revealed his deep attachment to and pride in this land and the villagers.

At this time, an old man in his sixties, leaning on a cane, walked towards him tremblingly.

The old man's face was full of traces of time, but at this moment, those wrinkles were filled with smiles.

"Zhu'er!" The old man called He Yuzhu's nickname excitedly, his voice trembling slightly, "You are really the savior of our Red Flag Brigade! Back then, our lives were so hard. We had no food to eat, and we guarded the few acres of thin land every day, hoping that God would give us a few more bites of food.

Who would have thought that now, under your leadership, we can not only fill our stomachs, but also eat this delicious white rice.

This was something I would never have dared to think about before!"

He Yuzhu hurried forward and supported the old man, his eyes full of respect and concern: "Uncle Li, what are you talking about?

This is all the result of everyone’s hard work. I can’t do it all by myself.”

The old man shook his head vigorously and knocked the ground heavily with his walking stick: "Don't be modest, kid. We all know it clearly. If it weren't for you leading us to find water sources, build water conservancy projects, introduce those high-quality seeds, and teach us scientific farming.

Can the grain production continue to increase as it is now? Every grain of food has your hard work!"

A warm feeling surged in He Yuzhu's heart. Looking at the scene of harvest before him, his thoughts drifted back to those difficult years.

At that time, in order to find rice varieties suitable for local cultivation, he ran around, consulted experts, read materials, and worked tirelessly in the experimental fields.

Countless days and nights of hard work have finally paid off with today's results. How could he not be filled with emotion?

In the center of the village, the original dilapidated mud houses have long disappeared, replaced by rows of neat and sturdy brick houses.

Cao Juan, the capable women's director, is busy in the village with several young women.

Her eyes were full of determination and enthusiasm, and her every move showed her competence.

"Director Cao, look at our house, it's so grand!" A young daughter-in-law excitedly pulled Cao Juan's hand and said, her face flushed with happiness.

"When we lived in that mud house before, it would leak everywhere when it rained. I would be very nervous when I went to bed at night, fearing that the house would suddenly collapse.

Now it’s great, this brick house is spacious and bright, it feels like living in heaven.”

Cao Juan smiled and patted her hands gently: "Yes, this is all thanks to Captain He.

He has always wanted to improve everyone's living conditions. I don't know how many times he has traveled and how much effort he has put into these houses."

"Director Cao, what can we women do for the brigade?"

Another woman asked eagerly, her eyes revealing her determination to contribute to the collective.

Cao Juan thought for a moment and said, "There are many things we women can do.

We can organize ourselves to improve the sanitation of the village so that everyone can live comfortably;

You can also learn some manual skills and increase your sideline income for the team. What do you think? "

"Okay!" the women answered in unison, their voices full of enthusiasm.

In the village clinic, Xu Xinyue, wearing a white coat, was concentrating on treating a sick villager.

Her eyes were gentle and firm, and her slender fingers skillfully placed on the patient's pulse, carefully feeling the changes in the pulse.

"Doctor Xu, your medical skills are really great!" The patient said gratefully, "I have this old problem. Every time it attacks, it takes a long time, and it's inconvenient to go to the hospital in town.

Now that we have you in our village, I feel much more at ease."

Xu Xinyue smiled and comforted him, "Uncle, don't worry. As long as you take medicine on time and rest, you will get better soon."

At this time, He Yuzhu walked into the clinic.

Seeing Xu Xinyue's busy figure, his heart was full of love and admiration. Xu Xinyue looked up and saw He Yuzhu, with a flash of surprise in her eyes: "Why are you here? Are you feeling unwell?"

He Yuzhu smiled and shook his head: "I'm fine, I just came to see you. You've been busy all day, thank you for your hard work."

As the two were talking, a young man ran in breathlessly: "Captain He, there are a lot of people outside, all from other brigades, and they said they have something to discuss with you."

He Yuzhu was slightly startled, and then followed the young man out of the clinic. He saw a group of people gathered at the entrance of the brigade, talking about something.

A captain from another village saw He Yuzhu coming out and hurried to meet him.

"Captain He, I've heard of you for a long time!" The captain shook He Yuzhu's hand enthusiastically and said, "The development of your Red Flag Brigade in recent years is obvious to all. We are really envious.

You see, the situation of our brigade is not very optimistic. The grain production has not been increasing and the villagers are living a tight life.

Could you give us some pointers?"

He Yuzhu smiled modestly: "We are all brothers in the same team, and it is only natural for us to help each other.

In fact, we just put some effort into planting techniques, such as reasonable irrigation, scientific fertilization, and selection of excellent varieties.

You can also try these methods.”

"Captain He, you are so kind-hearted!" the captain said gratefully, "There is one more thing I don't know if I should tell you."

"Just say it." He Yuzhu looked at him curiously.

The captain scratched his head a little embarrassedly: "It's like this, we heard that the boys in the Red Flag Brigade are all hardworking and capable, and the girls are all gentle and virtuous.

There are many young men of marriageable age in our village, all of whom want to marry a girl from the Red Flag Brigade. You see..."

He Yuzhu couldn't help but burst into laughter after hearing this: "This matter depends on fate.

When it comes to big matters like marriage, young people have to make the decision themselves.

But the girls in our Red Flag Brigade are really excellent, and they have their own ideas and pursuits. "

When the villagers of Hongqi Brigade heard this, they all laughed. One woman said with a smile: "The girls of our Hongqi Brigade are very popular now, thanks to Captain He for building our brigade so well."

On the other side of the village, the factory area of ​​the Red Flag Brigade was bustling with activity.

Factory buildings are rising from the ground, and the roar of machines is intertwined like an exciting symphony.

"Master Wang, the quality of this batch of products must be strictly controlled!" A workshop director said to an experienced master, his eyes revealing his rigor and seriousness in work.

Master Wang nodded and said firmly: "Don't worry, Director. We will not be careless. This is a matter of great importance to the reputation of our Red Flag Brigade."

When He Yuzhu walked into the factory, the workers gathered around him, their eyes full of respect and admiration.

"Captain He, you're here!" a young worker said excitedly, "Look at our factory, the equipment is becoming more and more advanced, and the output is getting higher and higher. This is inseparable from your planning and leadership!"

He Yuzhu encouraged everyone: "Everyone has worked hard! This is the result of our joint efforts.

We must continue to work hard and innovate to bring our Red Flag Brigade's products to a wider market."

At night, the square of the Red Flag Brigade was brightly lit and a grand celebration was being held here.

The villagers sat together, happy smiles on their faces, and their laughter echoed throughout the square.

An elderly man of high moral character and high prestige walked slowly onto the stage, holding in his hand a silk banner with eight large Chinese characters embroidered on it: "Benefiting the people, grace as heavy as a mountain".

The old man's eyes were moist, and he said excitedly: "Fellow villagers, we are gathered here today to thank someone.

He is our Captain He Yuzhu! Under his leadership, our Hongqi Brigade has transformed from a poor and backward village to a wealthy model village.

He works tirelessly day and night for us.

He is the hero in our hearts and the pride of our Red Flag Brigade! Let us thank him with the warmest applause! "

Thunderous applause and cheers suddenly broke out from the audience, and the villagers stood up one after another and cast admiring glances at He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu had mixed feelings. He walked slowly onto the stage, took the banner from the old man, tears in his eyes.

“My fellow villagers, I, He Yuzhu, just did what I should do.

This banner not only belongs to me, but also to every villager in the Red Flag Brigade.

It is your hard work that has made our team what it is today.

In the days to come, we must continue to unite as one and build the Red Flag Brigade into a better place!" He Yuzhu's voice was firm and powerful, echoing in the night sky for a long time.

To the sound of cheerful music, the villagers sang and danced, fully enjoying this hard-earned happy life.

Children were laughing and playing in the crowd, their laughter as clear as silver bells, adding a touch of innocence to this beautiful night.

Cao Juan and Xu Xinyue stood aside, watching the lively scene, their hearts filled with joy.

"Xinyue, look how happy everyone is now. It all seems like a beautiful dream." Cao Juan said with emotion, her eyes full of longing for the future.

Xu Xinyue nodded slightly, with a happy smile on her face: "Yes, this is all thanks to He Yuzhu. He used his wisdom and sweat to create a happy home for everyone.

I believe that under his leadership, the Red Flag Brigade will have a brighter future.”

He Yuzhu moved among the crowd, chatting cordially with every villager and sharing their joy and happiness.

He knew that this was just a new starting point in the development of the Red Flag Brigade. There was still a long way to go and more challenges waiting for them.

But as long as everyone works together, nothing can stop the Red Flag Brigade from moving towards a more prosperous and powerful future.

The red flag is flying to lead the way, and we are brave enough to shoulder the construction mission

The amazing transformation of the Red Flag Brigade was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, which caused a huge wave in the surrounding areas and quickly became a well-deserved model brigade for rural construction.

He Yuzhu, the soul figure and outstanding leader of the Red Flag Brigade, was naturally given a more important mission - to serve as an ambassador for rural construction.

From then on, He Yuzhu's pace of life suddenly accelerated, and every day was as busy as a wound-up clock.

Before dawn, when the first ray of light had not yet penetrated the darkness, he had already quietly got up, washed up simply, and hurried to the field that he was so familiar with and loved so much.

In the fields, he bent over and carefully checked the growth status of each crop, patiently answering questions from farmers from neighboring villages who came to ask for advice. He explained and demonstrated everything in detail, from the depth of tillage of the land, the precise spacing of sowing, to the appropriate amount of water and timing for irrigation, to the type and amount of fertilizer to be used.

His rough hands move freely in the soil, as if playing a silent but powerful agricultural melody. Every movement is full of his rich experience accumulated over the years and his deep love for agriculture.

"Ambassador He, look at the land in our village. The soil fertility seems to never improve. What can we do?" asked an old farmer from a neighboring village with a worried look on his face.

He Yuzhu straightened up, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and looked at the land sample described by the old farmer with focused eyes. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Brother, you need to loosen the soil deeply to make the soil more breathable.

Then, you can try using some organic fertilizers, such as the compost made by our farmers themselves, which is very good. It can not only increase fertility, but also improve soil structure.

Combined with the right amount of fertilizer and applied properly according to the different growth stages of the crops, it will definitely be effective. "After hearing this, the old farmer nodded frequently, his eyes full of gratitude and trust.

As dusk approached, when the afterglow of the setting sun dyed the entire field golden, He Yuzhu's figure was still shuttling between the ridges of the field. His voice was a little hoarse due to the long lecture, but still full of passion and vitality.

He patiently answered questions one after another and taught various agricultural techniques step by step, seemingly tirelessly.

Night should be a time for rest and relaxation, but He Yuzhu's work does not stop there.

He often sat in the meeting room of the brigade headquarters with other village cadres and representatives from neighboring villages who came to learn from him, to discuss the long-term planning and development strategies for rural construction.

Under the dim light, he sometimes frowned and fell into deep thought, and sometimes passionately expounded his views and opinions. His focused expression and determined eyes were all moving.

"If we want to develop our rural areas, we cannot just focus on agricultural production, but also need to pay attention to infrastructure construction and the improvement of education and culture."

He Yuzhu said with a sharp gaze, "Take our Hongqi Brigade for example. After the road was built, agricultural products can be transported out more conveniently for sale, and the income has also increased.

We also run night schools, which allow everyone to learn literacy and acquire new technologies, which is also of great help to agricultural production.”

Everyone expressed their agreement. Discussions in the conference room were ongoing, and the atmosphere was warm and harmonious.

He Yuzhu's wife Xu Xinyue felt distressed when she saw him working so hard every day. "Zhuzi, how can your body bear the day and night busyness?" Xu Xinyue scolded softly.

He Yuzhu just smiled, held her hand and said, "Xinyue, I have such a big responsibility now, I can't let everyone down.

As long as I can see the surrounding villages live a good life like our Red Flag Brigade, it will be worth it no matter how tired I am. "

Under He Yuzhu's unremitting efforts and careful guidance, agricultural production in neighboring villages gradually improved, and rural construction also got on the right track.

His name has been passed down from mouth to mouth in this vast rural land, becoming a role model and symbol of hope in people's hearts.

He Yuzhu still sticks to his post, continues to shed his blood and sweat for the grand blueprint of rural construction, and moves forward courageously towards a better future step by step.
