The yard is not paved with cement, but there are two vegetable ponds in the middle of the yard.

The yard is also kept clean. It can be seen that Aunt Wu cherishes this kind of house.

Entering the house, there are only a few simple pieces of furniture.

Li Laosan and others also came over. The white porcelain jars at Aunt Wu's house were not enough to pour water into, so they brought bowls for everyone to pour water into.

Just as Li Laosan was about to stop Aunt Wu, Jiang Xiaobai stopped her.

"Everyone, you're welcome. Sit anywhere you want. Those who have stools can sit on the stools, and those who don't have stools can sit on the bed." Jiang Xiaobai greeted Aunt Wu on his behalf.

There were many people who were standing, but after hearing Jiang Xiaobai's words, they all found their own seats and sat down.

Li Laosan, Wang Meng, Wang Chao, Liu Jian, Zhang Weiyi and other senior executives entered the room, which suddenly seemed full of people.

"Come and drink water."

"Thank you Aunt Wu. I was traveling by train and car on the way. I'm really thirsty." Jiang Xiaobai was not polite and took the unsightly white porcelain jar with peeling paint and blew it gently.

Then he drank.

It's not that Jiang Xiaobai doesn't want to drink a lot, but that drinking hot water will burn his mouth.

Others also took the water and drank it.

Seeing that no one disliked her at all, Aunt Wu also had a smile on her face.

"Aunt Wu, where does your eldest grandson go to school? Junior high school?" Jiang Xiaobai asked, looking at a shy boy next to him.

"Well, I'm in junior high school." Aunt Wu said with a smile.

"How is the child's academic performance?" Jiang Xiaobai asked again.

"I came first in the final exam this semester." The boy's big black eyes rolled, he looked at Jiang Xiaobai and said.

"It's so awesome. Let's make an agreement between uncle and you. If you get admitted to college, can uncle give you a bicycle?"

Jiang Xiaobai asked.

"No." The boy shook his head and said.

Jiang Xiaobai was stunned and said, "Why?"

"Grandma said that our family has received a lot of help from everyone, so we can no longer ask for things from everyone, and I don't like bicycles either."

The boy said honestly, but when he said the last word, his eyes were full of longing.

Jiang Xiaobai felt sour in his heart, paused and said: "Hey, the little guy said in such a loud tone, it seems that it is not difficult to get into college. I took the exam for two years before I got into it. So, it's settled.

, if you pass the exam, I will give you a bicycle."

Jiang Xiaobai deliberately said with a straight face, the little boy couldn't stand Jiang Xiaobai's words to provoke him, so he had to agree.

Aunt Wu on the side said: "Director Xiaobai..."

"Aunt Wu, please listen to me. I have told the children in the village a long time ago that whoever is admitted to university will be given a bicycle. This is not to be special to him."

Jiang Xiaobai said with a smile.

"Okay." Aunt Wu nodded and agreed.

"Third brother, are there many situations like Aunt Wu's in the village? How many families still have enough to eat and their children can't afford to go to school?"

Jiang Xiaobai asked.

"It's not too many. It's basically just the ten families in this group. The other families can be better off."

Li Laosan said that he knew the situation in Jianhua Village best.

"As for those who don't go to school, there are more. Some people think that going to school is useless. Boys are better off. This is more common among girls. Some people get married in their teens."

As Li Laosan said, Jiang Xiaobai's face turned ugly.

Although it goes without saying that this situation has entered the 1990s or even the 21st century at this time.

It is common in some rural areas that the poorer you are, the less you can afford to go to school, and the less you can afford to go to school, the poorer you are.

This seems to have become an endless loop.

But knowing means knowing, and understanding means understanding. When this kind of situation really happened around him, Jiang Xiaobai was still quite angry.

Seeing Jiang Xiaobai's bad expression, no one dared to say anything.

This little factory director made Xiaobai angry just after he came back. It was really inappropriate.

Just when Li Laosan was about to say something to persuade him, he heard the voice of the old party secretary Huang Zhongfu coming from the yard.

"Xiaobai, Xiaobai."

"Uncle Huang." Jiang Xiaobai responded, stood up and came to the door to greet him.

"What am I saying? I just heard the commotion in the village, and I thought something had happened. But when I asked about it, I found out that it was your boy who came back."

Huang Zhongfu said, followed Jiang Xiaobai into the room and sat down?

Aunt Wu quickly poured water for Huang Zhongfu.

After not seeing him for half a year, Jiang Xiaobai felt that Huang Zhongfu was much older and had more white hair on his head.

Not only is Huang Zhongfu in good spirits, he is aging quickly because there are so many things in the village.

In the past ten years or so, there have not been so many things going on in the village as now.

Either building roads or building houses, but Huang Zhongfu was very willing to see this change in his heart.

He even thought that if the village was getting better day by day, it would be worth it even if he died from exhaustion.

Now Jianhua Village can be said to be a village that is envied by everyone from all over the country.

It turns out that Jianhua Village is like marrying a daughter-in-law, which requires a lot of effort. Some people even gave up the idea of ​​marrying a daughter-in-law as soon as they heard that it was Jianhua Village.

Most of the girls from the same village marry to other villages.

But what about now? I heard that she was from Jianhua Village. Girls from other villages jumped to the village to marry. In just one year,

There are countless young men getting married in the village.

However, there are fewer girls marrying in other villages, and everyone is willing to look for them in the village.

It turns out that Jianhua Village is also famous in Shili and Baxiang, but it is famous for its poor people.

But now Jianhua Village is famous only for the rich.

"Lao San, how did I tell you before, let the old branch secretary work less and enjoy more happiness?"

Jiang Xiaobai turned to look at Li Laosan and said.

"I...I..." Li Laosan grimaced, and I didn't want to either.

But there is something going on in the village, and the old party secretary wants to step in. Who can stop him?

"Yes, train this little brat well..." Huang Zhongfu also said, Li Laosan would come to him whenever something happened, and he would rush up to him as soon as he said a bunch of compliments.

"Look, the old party secretary's hair is so white that you can barely see the snowflakes falling on his head." When Jiang Xiaobai said this, a group of people laughed.

The atmosphere in the room also became lively.

After chatting for a while, Jiang Xiaobai turned to look at Huang Zhongfu and asked.

"Zhi Shu Huang, I heard that there is still a patriarchal mentality in our village. It is considered useless to study and is not allowed to go to school, especially girls. There are also cases where families arrange marriages when they are more than ten years old?"

Huang Zhongfu didn't understand why Jiang Xiaobai suddenly brought up this topic.

After a pause, he replied: "Yes, this is indeed the case, and there are quite a few such cases. It is not good for a girl to be married in her teens. Everyone thinks that the girl who gets married will never be the same as the water thrown out.
