lemonade

On the first day Fu Yue and Nie Haohuai came to Village C, it rained heavily. The roof was in disrepair for a long time, and the ceiling seemed to have a faucet turned on. The water kept flowing down at a constant speed, which looked like a thin transparent column.

When the village head knocked on the door, Fu Yue had already found a bucket to fetch water.

"Mr. Fu, I'm really sorry. This room leaks when it rains. How about I change it for you?" The village chief hesitated, and he didn't seem to want to change Fu Yue's room so much.

Village C was still a poor village not long ago. It was brought up by the national strategy of rural revitalization and poverty alleviation. At the end of last year, the whole village had been lifted out of poverty, but it was far from being rich.

Fu Yue said: "It doesn't matter, it shouldn't rain for a long time. I've already taken a bucket to catch it, and it's nothing."

The village chief breathed a sigh of relief and said: "That's good, that's good, then I won't disturb your rest. The other design teacher is delayed by something, and he won't be here until a few days later. These days, Mr. Fu, you and you The assistant can take a look at it casually, don't worry."

Fu Yue nodded and said yes, and sent the village chief out of the house.

The assistant that the village chief said was Nie Haohuai, because with Nie Haohuai's experience and ability, it was impossible to be the main architect. Xia Huai asked Nie Haohuai to follow him, which also meant to let him be an assistant by Fu Yue's side and learn from him.

After the village chief left, Fu Yue knocked on Nie Haohuai's door to see what was going on with him.

Nie Haohuai quickly opened the door, turned sideways to let him in, and said, "Brother Fu, why are you here?"

"Let me see if there is any water leakage in your room." After Fu Yue came in, he found that Nie Haohuai's place was much more serious than his. There was only one faucet in his room, while Nie Haohuai's room... seemed to have turned on the shower.

Nie Haohuai also brought out a few basins, but with the sound of "big pearls and small pearls falling on the jade plate", I am afraid that it will be difficult for Nie Haohuai to fall asleep tonight.

Fu Yue thought for a while and asked, "Has the village head visited you?"

Nie Hao asked woodenly, "Why did the village chief come to see me?"

Fu Yue understood, and said, "This room is not suitable for you to rest, how about this, I will go to the village chief and ask him to change a room for you."

Nie Haohuai grabbed Fu Yue and said, "Brother Fu, no need, it will be very troublesome to the village chief. When I came, I heard that the houses in the village were full, and the room we lived in was moved away temporarily. We got it together."

Strange, the young and middle-aged people in village C basically go out to work, and the tourism industry in the village has not developed. Most of the time of the year, except for the Chinese New Year, basically only the elderly and children stay in the village. Why are the houses full? What?

Fu Yue recalled the village chief's hesitant expression just now, and said, "Okay, then you will come to my room for one night?"

There is also a sofa in his room, at most Nie Haohuai can sleep on the bed, and he will spend the night on the sofa.

But Nie Haohuai said: "Brother Fu, I don't bother you anymore. I sleep very well, and I can fall asleep when I close my eyes. It's really fine. I can fall asleep in a worse environment than here."

After he said that, Fu Yue couldn't say anything more, so he said: "That's good, if you really can't sleep, just come and knock on my door, don't be afraid to trouble me."

The rainstorm didn't last long, and it stopped in the middle of the night, and Fu Yue slept until dawn.

After breakfast, Fu Yue and Nie Haohuai went to the field for investigation.

This is a government project. Naturally, there is a clear budget limit, and a lot of money has been allocated. It seems that the government really wants to develop leisure and entertainment in Village C, so as to meet the spiritual and cultural needs of the people of Village C.

There are many places in the village that have not been paved with concrete roads. The muddy ground is soft and it is very uncomfortable to step on. Fu Yue told Nie Haohuai, saying: "Xiao Nie, walk slowly, this road is very slippery."

Nie Haohuai said, "Brother Fu, be careful too."

There were a few old people playing chess in the park. Fu Yue walked over to have a look. The chess players and spectators were fascinated, so he left silently with Nie Haohuai without disturbing them.

Under the woods on the other side, there were a few old people sitting and chatting about family affairs. Fu Yue walked over and said, "Hello, we are architects who are here to participate in leisure construction projects. May I chat with you about architecture?" something?"

The old people looked at each other, and finally an old man spoke up and said, "Okay, what do you want to ask?"

Before a new construction project is established, the most important thing is not the budget cost, the overall style and the materials used, but the needs. The needs of the service objects will always come first. If the needs cannot be met, the value of the building will be reflected. not come out.

Fu Yue first asked a simple question: "What do you usually do?"

The old people started talking in a hurry, and he got a lot of answers.

"Come out to exercise, and then get together to chat. After chatting enough, go home and cook for the children. Take a nap and daze for a while. The day is over."

"I come out in the morning to play Tai Chi with my master, and then I watch others play chess, and I go home to do housework. There is nothing to do. At my age, a day is like an hour, and it's over in a blink of an eye."

"I usually take my grandson with me. Look, he's playing on the slide there. Children don't have to worry about it. It won't work if you miss it for a while."

"I'm getting old, and my eyes are not working well. I can't read books or newspapers. At most, I can watch TV with my granddaughter, and watch SpongeBob SquarePants and the like."

Fu Yue listened carefully one by one, and came to the conclusion that many elderly people do not have their own personal space at all, nor are they aware of their real needs, which revolve around their families and offspring.

He asked again: "If we build an activity center for the elderly in this village, what do you hope you can do in it?"

Now the old people are not so quick to give an answer. They all thought about it, and an old woman spoke first: "Can there be a special child care place? It can be charged, but to ensure the safety of the children, then I will You can do what you want to do with peace of mind.”

The old grandma's words were echoed and agreed by many people: "Hey, my granddaughter is also up and down every day. I can't even watch her. How can I have time to think about what I want to do. "

"Can there be a special handicraft room? I really like handicrafts. I saw those beaded fruit bowls on the Internet before, but I couldn't learn them. It would be better if I could have a teacher to teach me."

"Let's set up a kitchen. We can hold cooking competitions regularly to see who is the master chef. How fun it is."

……

While listening, Fu Yue recorded what the old people said with a memo on his mobile phone, and said: "Your opinions are very good, and I will consider them carefully. Excuse me, you continue to chat, we are leaving, goodbye."

After leaving the park, Nie Haohuai asked, "Brother Fu, will you really take the advice of these old people?"

Fu Yue said: "After comprehensive consideration, if their needs can really be met, the manager will definitely satisfy them."

"But each of them thinks differently, won't it be messy?"

Fu Yue said: "You are right, so we need to listen to some people's suggestions, and then find out the most extensive needs and try our best to meet the needs of the most people."

Nie Haohuai nodded half-understood. He glanced forward casually and saw two children chasing and fighting on the road. Next to him was a depression that sank down suddenly. Foot on the ground.

"—Be careful!" Nie Haohuai rushed over, but it was still a step too late. The child fell down the two-meter-high depression and burst into tears.

Fu Yue also quickly chased after him, and Nie Haohuai wanted to go down and pick up the child without hesitation.Fu Yue grabbed him and said, "I'll do it."

Before Nie Haohuai could react, Fu Yue jumped down, held the child in his arms and handed it to Nie Haohuai, and with his own arms, he jumped up easily.

The trousers on the child's calf were red. Nie Haohuai carefully opened his trousers while coaxing the child. The child must have accidentally scratched a stone when he fell down. On the skin, the blood looked particularly shocking.

Fu Yue made a decisive decision and said, "Let's send him to the hospital."

The other child stared blankly at his companion, with panic on his face that he would be punished for doing something wrong, and said, "I, I didn't do it on purpose."

Fu Yue patted the other child and said, "Don't be afraid, this is an accident, not your fault, and we will explain it clearly to your parents."

Nie Hao held the injured child in his arms, and Fu Yue took the other child. The two went to the hospital. The doctor bandaged the injured child and said that he would come every day to change the dressing.

Fu Yue gave the money, and when he came out, he asked the child: "Where do you live, I will send you back."

The injured child became alarmed when he heard the home, saying: "Mom said you can't just bring strangers home."

The uninjured child hesitated for a while and said, "But they saved you, they should be good people."

The injured child rolled his eyes several times and asked, "Aren't you really bad people?"

Fu Yue could only smile bitterly and said, "I'm really not a bad person."

Nie Haohuai almost engraved the word "honesty" on his face.

"Alright then." The uninjured child pointed to the distance and said, "Our home is over there."

Fu Yue and Nie Haohuai looked at each other, and couldn't help but look at each other. They both saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

The place the child pointed to was a mountain.

"You live on the mountain?" Fu Yue asked.

The child's innocent voice came: "No, we live behind that mountain."

Nie Haohuai whispered to Fu Yue, "That seems to be within the scope of Village C, but didn't the village chief say that it's a wasteland and uninhabitable?"

Fu Yue winked at Nie Haohuai, didn't answer his words, but asked the two children: "You live behind the mountain, how come you come here, it's quite a distance."

The child said: "We sneaked out to play, don't tell our parents, or we will be scolded miserably, and we will have no food at night."

"Are your parents at home?"

The child nodded and said: "Our parents are at home every day. Uncle, you are a good person. Just send me to the gate of the village. Then you leave immediately. Don't tell others that you have come to our house, okay?"

Nie Haohuai's brain was not spinning very fast, and he also heard something strange at this time. He asked: "Are you... are the same parents? Are you brothers?"

The two children affirmed Nie Haohuai's words.

Fu Yue's mind was turning back and forth, and something flashed through his mind. He asked, "How many brothers and sisters do you have?"

The uninjured child told the whole story: "I am Ba'er, my elder brother is Qi'er, and we have six younger siblings."

"Are there many people on the other side of the mountain?"

"A lot, there are so many beautiful girls every month..."

"Ba'er!" Qi'er stopped him and said, "Mom won't let us talk about this to outsiders."

Fu Yue couldn't hold back, and gave a silent "reliance".

What kind of village is this?
