Farming and Bend the National Husband

The next day was the weekend, Xia Jiusheng's family got dressed early and sat absent-mindedly in the living room, waiting for Duan Wei to send someone to pick them up.

Xia's father and Xia's mother both wore new clothes today, as if they were visiting relatives, but their faces were a little stiff, obviously it was very stressful to be a guest at the home of a big man like Duan Wei.

Of course, Zhao Zezhong would also go together.

Hearing that Xia Jiusheng officially accepted a child as an apprentice, Zhao Zezhong must have been lying when he said that he didn't taste good, but Xia Jiusheng said that he couldn't learn it when he was too old, and he couldn't help it.

After a while, the car sent by Duan Wei arrived, because there were only four people in Xia Jiusheng's family, so only one car came, Zhao Zezhong had no choice but to drive there by himself.

The two cars drove back and forth towards Hangzhou, passed through the bustling streets, and drove into a relatively quiet area. After being checked and confirmed by a sentry, the car turned into the provincial party committee compound at the foot of Qipan Mountain, and drove to a two-story building .

Ah Fu and Duan Wei were already standing at the door waiting. Seeing Xia's father and mother getting out of the car in front of them, they rushed up to meet them.

Ah Fu rushed to Xia Jiusheng, and he didn't see each other for two days. When he saw his master, he was very affectionate. He hugged Xia Jiusheng's thigh and kept rubbing his body like a puppy, which softened Xia Jiusheng's heart. He reached out and grabbed Ah Fu's armpits, lifted them up vigorously, and hugged him in his arms.

"Master, I miss you so much!" Ah Fu was tossed up by the master, giggled happily, put his arms around Xia Jiusheng's neck tightly, pressed his face to his, and whispered.

"Well, Master misses you too." Seeing his apprentice being so heart-warming, Xia Jiusheng's nervousness after entering the provincial party committee compound was also relieved, and he said with a smile close to Ah Fu.

"Yangyang, this is your apprentice!" Zhao Zezhong stood behind Xia Jiusheng, watching their intimacy as if no one else was there, curled his lips in taste.

"Yeah, isn't it cuter than you?" Xia Jiusheng hugged Ah Fu and turned to Zhao Zezhong, smiling triumphantly.

"No, I'm the cutest—" Zhao Zezhong put his face in front of the two of them, put his fists on his cheeks, and pouted to pretend to be cute.

"You're an adult! You're so shameless——" Seeing Zhao Zezhong squeezed in front of himself and his master, Ah Fu screamed while laughing and stretched out his hand, pushing his face away.

"You're a little baby, I'm a big baby—" Zhao Zezhong reached out to hug Xia Jiusheng's neck, and put his face against Xia Jiusheng's.

"Go away, go away, you are not allowed to kiss the master——" Ah Fu laid his whole body on Xia Jiusheng's body, facing Zhao Zezhong with his buttocks, and arched him outward with all his strength.

"Zhao Zezhong, don't you want to be ashamed—" Seeing that Zhao Zezhong was getting more and more troublesome, Xia Jiusheng grabbed the back of his neck and threw him aside.

Duan Wei and his wife saw the three of them making a fuss and laughed heartily.

"You ignore me, then I'll get along with An An." Zhao Zezhong saw An An looking at them, looking a little lonely, picked him up, and kissed him on the face.

An An was suddenly attacked by Zhao Zezhong, touched the kissed cheek, and suddenly blushed.

The next moment his body twisted, struggling to get down, he always felt that he had grown up now, and he didn't want to be hugged in full view.

"Stop making trouble, let's all go in, don't let your Uncle Duan blow the northwest wind all the time." Xia's mother gave her son a white look and said.

"Yes, come in quickly, it's cold outside." Mrs. Duan stepped forward to take Mama Xia's arm and said affectionately.

There were already six people sitting in the room. They were drinking tea and chatting on the sofa at this time. They looked not young, and the youngest was over 40 years old. However, everyone had different expressions, some casual, some reserved, some Forcing composure.

Seeing Duan Wei's family and Xia Jiusheng's family coming in, everyone stopped chatting and looked at them together.

Among the people present, the only person Xia Jiusheng knew was Zhao Zezhong's uncle Nie Hongjun, a very tall man who was very eye-catching sitting there.

"Xiao Si, why are you here?" Nie Hongjun asked in surprise when he saw Zhao Zezhong.

"Only uncle can come, can't I?" Zhao Zezhong glanced around the room and asked with a smile.

For such a scene, he naturally wouldn't be stage frightened. During the Chinese New Year, most of the people who came to visit grandpa's aura were much stronger than those present.

"Let me introduce to you—" Duan Wei took Xia Jiusheng to the sofa and introduced him to those people: "This is Xia Jiusheng, the master of my son Ah Fu, and I will be a family with Duan Wei from now on. Take care."

"Don't dare to be, dare not be, Secretary Duan's family is naturally our family." The people on the sofa quickly stood up and said in a hurry: "Xiao Xia is still so young, she is so outstanding, and she will definitely have a bright future in the future."

"Then thank you all, Xiaoxia, I will not introduce this Nie Hongjun Uncle Nie, you have known each other for a long time, let me introduce you first, because his identity is quite special to you." Duan Wei pointed out Looking at a thin man who looked like a university teacher on the opposite side, he said with a smile: "He is your parent officer, Zheng Donghai, the mayor of Shaocheng City, you can also call him Uncle Zheng."

"Hello, Uncle Zheng." Hearing that he is the mayor of Shaocheng City, Xia Jiusheng felt uneasy and hurriedly called out.

"Hi Xiaoxia, what Secretary Duan said is right, we will be a family from now on, don't be too polite." Zheng Donghai seemed to have a strong personal relationship with Duan Wei. After he introduced him, he immediately stood up and held Xia Jiusheng's hand, saying intimately: "If you encounter any embarrassing things in the future, come to Shaocheng directly to find me."

"Thank you, Uncle Zheng." Xia Jiusheng said excitedly when he saw the mayor of a city, and he was not at all offended by himself.

"This is—" Duan Wei introduced the rest of the people, and everyone was very polite to Xia Jiusheng, expressing that he had trouble finding them.

Xia Jiusheng naturally thanked them one by one.

These people were either department heads in the province or regional leaders. The youngest one was also the deputy mayor of Yucheng City.

Xia's father and Xia's mother were so nervous that their palms were sweating, and their hands were so stiff that they didn't know where to put them.So many leaders present today are big figures that they would never even dare to think about. Seeing their son shaking hands with them one by one, they feel proud of their son.

Zhao Zezhong stood beside An An with his arms around him, silently watching Duan Wei introduce his circle of friends to Xia Jiusheng, of course he could understand Duan Wei's intentions.But that's good too, when Xia Jiusheng is with him, he always feels unworthy of himself, if he can make friends with these people, his vision will be broadened, and he will naturally become more confident in the future.

After introducing these people, Duan Wei wanted to introduce Father Xia and Mother Xia to the people present. Seeing how nervous they were, he gave up after thinking about it.

After all, they are simple and ordinary rural people, limited by their vision and experience, if they were to deal with their own circles, it would be really embarrassing for them, so he simply mentioned that these were Xia Jiusheng's parents.

After the introduction, everyone sat down again. The living room of the Duan family was very large, and it was still roomy for a dozen people.

※※※

After everyone sat down, Duan Wei called Nie Hongjun and Xia Jiusheng to the study alone to discuss the waiting process.

Xia Jiusheng was a bit confused. He thought that he would be done with just saying he accepted Ah Fu as his apprentice, but he didn't expect Uncle Duan to attach so much importance to him, and he even had to pay homage to his teacher.

Even if he doesn't understand anything, he has read film and television novels, and knows that the ceremony of apprenticeship is the same in ancient and modern times, and there must be a fixed process, which cannot be neglected, otherwise he will be considered immodest.

Because Xia Jiusheng said that there are no elders in the master's school, he can only make up later to ask for the ancestor master, but writing apprenticeship stickers can't be saved. Duan Wei took out an antique folded old post and asked the name of the master's school.

This Xia Jiusheng had thought about it before. He had limited knowledge and couldn't think of a good name. He thought that his hometown was called Yushan Shunshui, so he might as well call it Dongshunmen. Anyway, in the accent here, Shun and Sheng have the same pronunciation.

So Nie Hongjun started to write the teacher's invitation letter with a brush, but he had to give gifts to each other later, which made it difficult for Xia Jiusheng.

Feeling all over his body, there was nothing that could be found, only the string of beads on his wrist made of unknown material, which was given to him by Grandpa Xiaohua when he was ten years old, since there was nothing else on his body suitable for gift People, only use it to make up the number.

After the three discussed it, they returned to the living room.

About half an hour later, Nie Hongjun looked at his phone, stood up and said, "Old Duan, it's almost time."

"Okay." Duan Wei stood up and said to the people in the living room: "The auspicious time has come, please follow me to the main room to witness the child's apprentice ceremony."

Xia Jiusheng was placed at the head of the north, Xia Jiusheng's parents, Zhao Zezhong, and An An were seated on one side, and five guests were seated on the other side. Nie Hongjun, as the official, could only stand with Duan's family .

When everyone was seated, Nie Hongjun coughed and read in his characteristic rough voice: "Today there is Xia Jiusheng, a disciple of the Dongshun Sect, who is in the Everbright Sect, and here he accepts Duan Fu as his disciple. The master waits for all the ceremonies to be simplified, and waits for the elders of the master to return."

After a pause, he spoke again: "Today, under the witness of all relatives and friends, Duan Fu officially entered Xia Jiusheng's gate—"

Although everyone has never heard of the Dongshun sect, since Duan Wei attaches so much importance to it, it must have an extraordinary background, so everyone's expressions became serious.

"Duan Fu, vote for the invitation card." Nie Hongjun shouted.

At this moment, Ah Fu was standing beside his father, with his small face tense, holding the red post in his hand. After hearing Nie Hongjun's drink, he obediently walked up to Xia Jiusheng, knelt down, and held up the post in his hand. overhead.

Originally, Ah Fu was required to read the teacher's apprentice post at this time, but he was still young and could not read much, so Nie Hongjun had to do it for him.

After reading the teacher-appreciation post like a sign of loyalty, Xia Jiusheng stretched out his hand to take the post. Ah Fu remembered his father's instructions, lowered his head, and kowtowed three times to Xia Jiusheng.

"Get up." After he finished kowtowing, Xia Jiusheng called out distressedly.

At this time, the wife had prepared a mahogany tray with a teacup on it. Ah Fu carefully picked it up, handed it to Xia Jiusheng, and said, "Master, drink tea."

Xia Jiusheng took it, smiled at Ah Fu, picked it up, took a sip, and put it on the coffee table next to him.

"Master." Ah Fu saw that the master had already drank tea, which meant that his work was done, so he happily walked over and leaned on him.

"Good boy, Ah Fu." Xia Jiusheng took off the beading in his hand, handed it to Ah Fu, and said, "This is what the master gave me when he was apprenticed to him. I will pass it on to you today. I hope you will study hard in the future. The sect is flourishing."

"Thank you, master." Ah Fu took the beads, put them in his pocket, and took the red envelopes that his mother had prepared on the tray, and handed them to Xia Jiusheng.

When Xia Jiusheng took the red envelope, Nie Hongjun yelled, "Licheng."

When everyone heard this, they stood up and clapped their hands together, congratulating Duan Wei and Xia Jiusheng.

The two thanked everyone and sat down again, while Mrs. Duan went to the kitchen to see if the master's banquet was ready.

After a while, Mrs. Duan came out from the kitchen and greeted everyone to sit down.

On a large round table that can seat fifteen or six people, appetizers have been set up, and everyone sits down according to the usual habits. Today Xia Jiusheng is the biggest, and he should be the chief, but he is young, so he declined.

Duan Wei didn't force it either, he knew Xia Jiusheng was a man, and in the end Father Xia and another older guest took the main seat.

Naturally, the food was very rich. In order to entertain Xia Jiusheng's family, Duan Wei specially invited one of the most famous local chefs in Hangzhou to be the head chef.So even if the taste is not as delicious as Xia Jiusheng's, it can be considered exquisite and delicious.

There were no outsiders here, everyone ate casually, and after a while, even Xia's father chatted with them.

Ah Fu and An An sat on both sides of Xia Jiusheng, almost leaning on Xia Jiusheng's body. Mrs. Duan reminded her son several times not to block the master from eating, but Ah Fu sat there for a while, and leaned over again It's over.

An An didn't know why, maybe it was because she was in a strange environment, or maybe she felt that her brother was going to be snatched away, so she was also very attached to Xia Jiusheng. All gone.

Zhao Zezhong sat next to An An resentfully, watching Xia Jiusheng being occupied by two children.

After finally finishing their meal, everyone sat down on the sofa to continue chatting, and Ah Fu nestled in Xia Jiusheng's arms again, twisting his body and talking to Xia Jiusheng.

Although today is the weekend, everyone here is very busy, so after drinking a cup of tea, they said goodbye one by one and left.

There were only two families and Zhao Zezhong's uncle and nephew left in the room. After tidying up the living room, everyone sat down again, sitting closer to each other so that it was easier to talk.

"Xiao Xia, are you sure you don't want to study and are you planning to develop in your hometown?" Duan Wei had really regarded Xia Jiusheng as one of his own at this time, and began to ask him about his future plans.

"Yes, Uncle Duan." Xia Jiusheng nodded and said with a smile, "I think my character is more suitable for this job. I can farm in the countryside and live a comfortable life. The pressure of competition in the city is too great, and I don't have enough heart. I am tired. You can't play with others even if you die."

"Are you lazy? How can you be as exaggerated as you said?" Duan Wei scolded with a smile.

After a pause, Duan Wei said solemnly again: "In your hometown, it is indeed good to develop the rural economy. There are no factories and no pollution there. If it is done well, there is a future. But you can't make trouble like this, at least you have to Get it to scale."

"I think about that too, but I don't have the capital right now, otherwise I would like to take over the entire Da'ao. This has been my dream for many years." Xia Jiusheng did not hide his true thoughts from him.

"Oh, tell me in detail." Duan Wei asked with interest.

"I want to contract out the mountain on the other side of Da'ao to plant fruit trees, to carry out special breeding under the fruit trees, to raise chickens and geese, etc. The land is divided into several areas, and some pure wooden villas are built together for people to live in, and a courtyard house is built. Build a farmhouse, and build a breeding base for fine seeds, which will be specially planted to provide seedlings for the villagers, let them plant together, and become a characteristic economy with the village as the unit." Xia Jiusheng thought about it for a long time, so the talk went smoothly.

"What else?" Duan Wei saw that although Xia Jiusheng's words were a little vague, but very organized, he nodded and continued to ask.

"If I have funds, I would like to build some tourist-style vineyards, kiwi orchards, red bayberry mountains, strawberry orchards, cherry orchards, etc., and build simple amusement facilities inside. The garden can not only pick fresh fruits, but also be used as a playground." Xia Jiusheng Continue to talk about his dream.

"Not bad, it has become a comprehensive farm amusement park." Duan Wei's eyes lit up when he heard it.

This kind of development, in fact, has been carried out in the southern mountainous area, but it has not yet formed a scale. Because of the developed industry in the north, the environment is mostly not suitable for the development of agriculture, so it is almost blank.

"I also plan to dig some fish ponds and raise some fish to make the farming ecology more complete. Of course, I will plant all kinds of flowers and plants on the roads extending in all directions, especially vines. I hope that when everyone enters Da'ao, the road The sun does not shine, and it is all shaded by flowers and plants."

"Oh, the handwriting is not small." After listening to Xia Jiusheng's thoughts, Duan Wei thought for a while, and then said: "Your idea, the general direction is not wrong, but it is too messy and idealized, and you need a professional to help you. Create a plan and calculate the input and output, so that it will be operable.”

"Yeah." Xia Jiusheng nodded.

He had an idea long ago, but he also felt confused. He didn't know how to start, let alone how to start the first step. Duan Wei's words pointed out his problem.

"There is a ready-made expert around you, why don't you ask him?" Duan Wei said with a smile, pointing at Nie Hongjun.

"You mean Uncle?" Xia Jiusheng suddenly understood. He had indeed heard Zhao Zezhong mention before that Nie Hongjun is a professor at the Agricultural University. So, just ask him for advice?

"You, just make trouble for me." Nie Hongjun had been listening quietly when Xia Jiusheng spoke just now, without expressing his opinion. Now Duan Wei pushed himself out and cursed with a smile.

"Anyway, you're free when you're free, just to help Xiao Xia." Duan Wei said with a smile. "Besides, you never forget the food in Xiaoxia's family. If you help Xiaoxia, won't you be able to eat it every day?"

"That's true." Nie Hongjun cheered up. "However, I still want to drink Xiao Xia's wine the most."

"No problem, Uncle, if you come to help me, next year I will brew dozens of jars, all of which will belong to you." Xia Jiusheng said proudly.

"Deal." Nie Hongjun smiled all over his face, leaned over quickly, and gave Xia Jiusheng a high-five, as if afraid of his remorse.

"What about the funds? How about I invest—" Zhao Zezhong looked at Xia Jiusheng and asked.

"As soon as you intervene, Xiao Xia will become a part-time worker for you?" Duan Wei hastily rejected Zhao Zezhong's suggestion. "Let's pay for the goods. I will help you find a way. The country now has funds to support the rural economy."

Xia Jiusheng thought about it, and felt that Duan Wei's words made sense. He developed Da'ao because he wanted to have his own business. If Zhao Zezhong invested, people who didn't know would think it was Zhao Zezhong who was developing it?

Zhao Zezhong was only worried about Xia Jiusheng, seeing that Duan Wei had other options, he didn't say anything more.

Sitting and chatting for a while, seeing that it was getting late, Xia Jiusheng's family offered to leave.

Duan Wei and his wife sent it out. Mrs. Duan wanted to stay for a few more days because Ah Fu was in good health, and Xia Jiusheng agreed.

A few steps out of the yard, Xia Jiusheng was about to turn his head to let Duan Wei stay, but saw a very tall man rushing towards them at the door of a two-story building next to him.

"Little Four, don't go." Xia Jiusheng was just wondering who he was looking for, when he heard him yell.

"Who is he?" Seeing his aggressive appearance, Xia Jiusheng turned to Zhao Zezhong and asked suspiciously.

"He is Li Qiaowei's elder brother Li Haoliang." Zhao Zezhong replied.

"Oh." It was from the Li family, Xia Jiusheng nodded subconsciously.

The tall man named Li Haoliang stopped in front of them at this time, staring at Zhao Zezhong, as if about to burst into flames, suddenly grabbed Zhao Zezhong's chest, and shouted: "Little Si, how dare you bully my sister?" , I can’t spare you today—”

"Xiao Li, don't do it." Duan Wei quickly dissuaded Li Haoliang when he saw that Li Haoliang was going to do it with his guest.

"Don't worry, Uncle Duan, this kid is not a good guy, I will teach him a lesson." Li Mingliang turned his head and yelled at Duan Wei.

As if afraid of Duan Wei's continued obstruction, Li Haoliang grabbed Zhao Zezhong's chest, stretched out his legs and hooked him, trying to throw him to the ground.

He had a good idea, Zhao Zezhong fell to the ground, how could he get up, he just gave him a good blow to vent his anger.

Xia Jiusheng was right next to them, how could he be allowed to bully Zhao Zezhong, put one hand on Zhao Zezhong's back to prevent him from falling, and the other hand grabbed Li Haoliang's wrist, twisted hard, let him grab Zhao Zezhong's hand, Had to let go.

"Who are you? Do you want to stand up for Zhao Zezhong?" Li Haoliang glared at Xia Jiusheng angrily, and asked angrily when he saw that Zhao Zezhong had dodged to hide behind him.

"I just want to persuade you to calm down." Xia Jiusheng didn't want to make enemies with the Li family, so he let go and looked at him and said calmly.
