At the south end of the village, there is a small courtyard surrounded by crooked willow sticks.

There is nothing else in the yard except a vegetable garden and a adobe house.

Adobe is a rectangular adobe brick.

The adobe bricks are simple to make, and the materials and tools required are even simpler. The materials required are materials such as water, loess and hay that can be seen everywhere. In addition to shovels of mud, the tools required are brick molds made of six by ten wooden boards.

After mixing the loess and hay with water into the mud, put the mud into the mold. When the solidification is not dry yet, remove the mold and dry naturally. A person can make such bricks in a day, four or five hundred yuan.

Adobe bricks are not worth a lot of money, so whoever builds a house will do it yourself.

In the past, adobe bricks were the main material for building houses in rural areas.

The built adobe house is made of straw. It is very beautiful when it is new, but it is rotten when it is old.

With the reform and development and the increase in per capita income, nowadays, adobe houses are too rare even in rural areas.

This is Mr. Hou’s house.

When he arrived at the gate of the courtyard, Wang Meng stopped everyone and turned to the village women's director Qin Shaofen and said, "Sister Qin? Go and notify them, tell the women to cover the quilts and ask Aunt Hou to put on her clothes as well."

"Okay!" Qin Shaofen agreed and hurried into the yard. Qin Shaofen didn't even enter the house, but stood in the middle of the yard and shouted at the top of his voice: "Fuck Liangzi? Secretary Wang is here, are you wearing clothes quickly? The girls are covered with quilts? Secretary Wang did not come alone, and there are also city leaders?"

Secretary Yang and the members of the Standing Committee looked at each other, what's the point? Is it necessary to wear clothes? Cover a quilt? What? Can't I be naked when I don't have outsiders?

At this time, Wang Meng secretly glanced at Han Tiezhu.

Han Tiezhu was also paying attention to Wang Meng's expression. Seeing this, he immediately understood it. He coughed twice and looked at the members of the Standing Committee with apologetic expression and said, "Mr. Hou's family is the poorest poor household in the village. The old man is paralyzed in bed. He has eight daughters in the family. Four of them are married, and there are four left. The oldest one is nineteen and the youngest one is eight years old. These are the result of the stubborn old man who wants a son to pass on the family line. However, the child is just a piece of sorghum field, and he does not produce anything except sorghum."

"This is a serious rebirth, your village doesn't care?" Wu Haiming suddenly interrupted.

The members of the Standing Committee looked at Wu Haiming and thought to himself, why did he dare to speak?

"The old man ran to another place to give birth, but when he came back, he took his family with him! If you want to hold him accountable, you can only find the leader of the birthplace where the child is born, and you have to be responsible!" Han Tiezhu said.

"What else can I do if I have given birth to my child? I can't strangle the child to death, right?" The director of the women's director Qin Shaofen stood in the yard, and answered the words a few meters away.

"At that time, the village fined a lot of money, and it was fined. He didn't even have to be fined too much. Fortunately, the old man was able to do it, so he raised the children. When the children grew up, there were more people to work, and he also worked. The girl received some bride money when she got married. She lived a good life, and she was not as good as the best in the village. Later, the old man suddenly had a stroke and was paralyzed, and he dragged the family down in an instant. Now, the remaining family of six has only three torn quilts and a covered torn clothes. Whoever went out to do business would wear clothes and go out. Those who didn't go out would stay in the quilt." Han Tiezhu said.

"His family is so poor now! He can't eat a meal of meat a year. When the child is greedy, he catches mice and eats them. Even if he keeps cats, he can't scare the mice. If he doesn't keep cats, he will take a detour! "Ma Cunzhuang, director of the management and security, interrupted.

Zhongga? Zhongshan Standing Committee members were shocked. There are still such poor families in China now?

The Standing Committee member took a breath, Oh my god! Are they so poor?

"The government does not have subsidies?" Liu Xun asked with a frown, but he didn't believe it.

"The subsidies are available every year, but the government's relief funds are not much. Then we went all the way to our village. The geese passed by and plucked the hairs, and there was not much left in our hands. It was a blessing to ensure that they could not starve to death. If you want to eat enough and buy a piece of clothing, you don't have that spare money at all." Han Tiezhu said.

The members of the Standing Committee had a hot face, and they were doing it.

"Then won't he help his four daughters?" Wu Haiming turned his eyes and asked disbelief.

"The Hou family is too poor, it is a bottomless pit. At first, the man still took care of it, but later, the man wouldn't have ignored it. If a few girls hadn't secretly sent some food to his parents' house, it would be worse than this!" Han Tiezhu said.

"So, his child will no longer go to school?" asked a member of the Standing Committee.

"This leader? Are you really interesting. Are there anyone going to school naked?" Han Tiezhu looked at the Standing Committee member like a fool.

The old member of the Standing Committee blushed.

"Although it's nine years of compulsory education, you can see which school doesn't ask for money in different ways, it's money for buying papers, extracurricular books, class hygiene tools, and school uniforms. In which year is no more than 1,000 yuan?" Han Tiezhu added.

"Let the Education Director come to my place!" Yang Shulin said to Wang Di with a dark face.

"I'll just come forward to deal with it!" Wang Meng quickly took over the errand. This was his responsibility.

"No one donated some money or old clothes?" Liu Xun Kaba asked with his eyes.

"When you walk around, who has extra clothes? The big ones wear smaller ones, and the small ones continue to wear them. We only dare not wash them all year round, for fear that they will be damaged and those who don't wear them. Leader? Come, you smell them, and they will smell them." Han Tiezhu said, and leaned in front of Liu Xun.

"I'm fine, I smelled it long ago!" Liu Xun was so scared that he took several steps back and almost vomited.

"The countryside cannot support some? Isn't the government a relief fund for you every year?" Wu Haiming suddenly set off fire again at this time, and the target was directed at the Laohe Township Government. Because this year's subsidies have been issued, he is targeting Wang Meng. If Wang Meng intercepted it, he will find an opportunity to counterattack.

Yang Songlin looked at Wu Haiming, turned his head, and cursed in his heart, something that was life-and-death!

"There are 310 poor households like this in the township. In addition, there are elderly people, five-guarantee households, disabled people, etc. How much relief funds have you allocated? How many geese have plucked their hair when they pass by? How many are left in the village when they arrive? Don't believe it? Let's check from the bottom up? Apart from the central government, there is probably no one who doesn't pluck their hair!" Han Tiezhu said.

Yang Shulin glanced at Wang Di.

Wang Di lowered his head and didn't say anything.

At this time, Wang Meng spoke: "Actually, I can support some of them personally and have the ability to support some. However, the reason why I don't support is that I want you to see their actual situation. I want to tell you that it is urgent to develop Laohe Township. Support and assistance cannot solve the fundamental problem. If you can afford to support more than hundreds of poor households, I, Wang Meng, can cancel the Laohe Township development plan I submitted in order to save money for the city." Wang Meng said without hesitation.

Wu Haiming and several opposition parties turned red and speechless.

At this time, all the members of the Standing Committee looked at Wu Haiming, who was obviously extremely embarrassed, and cursed in their hearts. This stupid comparison was not enough to get hurt, and he was still taking others with him...

At this time, the dilapidated wooden door of the earthen house was pushed open from the inside, and a woman in a dirty military coat walked out from behind the door. The woman was in her fifties, thin, with a pale complexion and sickness. She pulled a pair of green rubber shoes with leaking toes and covered in soil. The patches were filled with patches, and it was hard to see the hem of the green military coat, revealing two thin legs that were as thin as a strand.

"The leaders are here? Come into the house quickly and don't worry, but they are not exposed!" the woman invited enthusiastically.

"Auntie? How are my uncle? I'm bringing him Chinese medicine!" Wang Meng took the lead in walking into the yard and turned around and shouted to Chen Haiyang: "Haiyang? Get the medicine."

Chen Haiyang agreed and went to the car to get medicine.

"Secretary Wang? Why do you take this matter seriously? How can you let you spend money to buy medicine? The old man is just like that, no treatment! No treatment!" The woman was moved to tears at this time. She stepped forward and held Wang Meng's hand and said.

"How can I not cure it? My uncle has not enjoyed his blessings yet. You have to take good care of him. Don't worry, when the stone mountain is opened, your good days will come!" Wang Meng said with a smile and helped the woman into the house.

Chen Haiyang took out a plastic bag from the car, and there were more than twenty packs of Chinese medicine made in sealed bags.

Because Yang Songlin and others were entering the house one after another, Shen Haiyang was waiting at the end.

The room was dark.

As soon as he entered the house, even Wang Meng was not used to it.

As soon as I entered the door, there was a kitchen, and the walls around me were still in the original appearance of the adobe, and it was so dark that it was smoked and fired.

Against the wall is a earth stove, which is also smoky and black.

At this time, the lid on the pot table was open, and the large iron pot was filled with green things. If you look closely, it turned out to be porridge made from bran and wild vegetables.

This is the structure of a three-family house. Apart from the kitchen, there is only a warehouse and a bedroom.

In the bedroom, there is only a table formed by brick supporting wooden boards. There are two iron tea jars with paint falling off, and a thermos with bamboo blank skin.

Five people were lying on an old-fashioned large earthen kang. On the head of the kang was an old man covered with a quilt, with messy hair, a sallow complexion and a dull look. He lay there motionless.

There were four girls on the kang, covered with two quilts with exposed cotton, only four dirty little faces were exposed, and they looked at everyone in panic.

Faced with this situation, the Standing Committee members all bowed their heads and said nothing.

Yang Songlin, Wang Di and some members of the Standing Committee had their eyes red at that time.

Li Cheng's eyes were also red. He originally thought that Wang Meng was committing fraud, but this situation was definitely not a fraud.

Yang Songlin originally thought that this was a mysterious guy, Wang Meng, and arranged it in advance. Only then did he realize that it was real because this situation could not be pretended.

Inside the house, there was a moment of silence.

A dozen people were crowded in the house, and they looked very crowded.

Aunt Hou stood by the kang at a loss.

At this time, Chen Haiyang walked into the house and handed the plastic bag containing medicine to Wang Meng.

Wang Meng took it and handed it to Aunt Hou: "Auntie, I'm afraid you won't know how to boil medicine, so I've boiled it all, plastic sealed, three bags a day. This is the amount of one week. The temperature is not high now, so it's okay to keep it for seven days. In seven days, I'll send someone to deliver it to you. In addition, when this batch of wood is sold, first support your family, so that the children should go to school and work, the village will try to arrange it as much as possible."

"Secretary Wang!" plop!

Aunt Hou was crying at that time and knelt down to Wang Meng directly.

Wang Meng quickly pulled Aunt Hou up: "Auntie? What are you doing? Get up quickly. You are poor and don't blame you. It's because our leaders are incompetent and we have the responsibility. It's because we are sorry for you!"

At this time, Wang Meng also had tears in his eyes.

Yang Songlin's eyes turned red, and he suddenly glanced at the Standing Committee members and said with a dark face, "Can you still watch?"

After saying that, Yang Songlin turned around and left. He wanted to donate some money, but his pocket was empty.

All the members of the Standing Committee lowered their heads and went out with Yang Songlin.

When I arrived in the yard, Yang Songlin's face was as deep as water.

Yang Songlin looked at the members of the Standing Committee and said earnestly: "It seems that we should have a lot of time! Otherwise, we, who are full and well-drinked, would we think that everyone is well-fed and well-dressed? This is our dereliction of duty, serious dereliction of duty. Comrades? Now, on the renovation planning of Laohe Township, everyone will vote! If you pass, raise your hand!"

After Yang Songlin finished speaking, he raised his right hand.

Wang Di and several members of the Standing Committee also raised their right hands.

Several other members of the Standing Committee looked at Wu Haiming.

"Secretary Yang, I think this is an example. Since we are conducting research, we should understand the matter thoroughly and not make a hasty decision. I suggest walking around again. After going back to discuss, then make a decision!" Wu Haiming said, he was obviously singing a counter-tune!

Wu Haiming actually dared to object? Even Yang Songlin was also very surprised.

Wang Meng's face turned blue.

"Does Deputy Secretary Wu disagree?" Wang Meng suddenly looked at Wu Haiming coldly and said.

Wu Haiming shivered under Wang Meng's gaze.

"Comrade Wang Meng? Since we are here for the investigation, we must be thorough and meticulous, and not blindly. You want to develop Laohe Township, which is a good thing! However, this is not your own business, nor is it something that any of us members of the Standing Committee can decide by themselves. How can we make a hasty decision without research?" Wu Haiming seemed to be going to stick to the end.

Yang Songlin looked at Wu Haiming from the side and frowned. His heart skipped a beat. It seemed that the character was determined to fight against Wang Meng and himself, and even wanted to stop the development of Laohe Township at all costs.

However, Yang Songlin couldn't figure it out. Could it be that Wang Meng was just offending him? Or did he have other intentions?

"Okay, okay! You really have a habit! Do you think I, Wang Meng, are farting when I speak? You can wait and see!" At this time, Wang Meng was angry! His eyes were red. He glanced at Wu Haiming and others, took out his cell phone with a sneer, dialed out the phone without hesitation, and turned on the hands-free.
Chapter completed!
