Madam, She Has a Tender Heart

After the team set off, Su Qingyu told mother and daughter Lu that one was busy with housework and tidying up the backyard, and the other was taking care of the little treasure. She was planning to go to the village with Master Zhong to take a look.

After the Zhongzhai leader arrived, the two of them walked along the mountain and watched.

"Have the families of the casualties in the stockade been accommodated?"

The leader of Zhongzhai sighed: "It's a natural disaster or a man-made disaster. We all felt sad for a while and then let it go. After all, the living people still have to continue living. This time, almost every family suffered losses, and a few families even became extinct..."

The leader of Zhongzhai felt like crying again when he talked about Juehu's home.

Su Qingnao was also a little sad.

"Those women..." she said with some difficulty.

"Those who have families, some women can't think about it... gone. Some are taken back by their families and still live as usual. It's not easy to marry a woman in our mountains, and it's not what the woman wants. Men even protect their own women. No, do you still want to make irresponsible remarks? Those who are not married may be able to do it for a while..."

Su Qingyu understood.

They need time to heal the pain and time to forget.

Just like Xiu'er, it's not easy to get out of it. Not all men don't mind if they are unmarried and encounter this kind of thing. For marriage, you may have to find a widower.

Su Qingyu sighed and asked him again: "How many households are left in the village and how many people are there?"

The leader of Zhong Village calmed down and said: "Our village was originally a big village, but we had no land to build houses, so we created Muwa Village. Now there are less than 100 households left, and the population is still 245. There are seventy-five men between the ages of sixteen and fifty-five."

Su Qingyu nodded: "Okay. Uncle Zhong, please make the census as soon as possible. I have something else to ask them to do. Can you give it to me tomorrow?"

"Yes. I'll give it to you tomorrow morning."

"good."

The two of them walked and talked. We visited the homes of each villager to learn about their living conditions and livelihood.

There are some people whose lives are really difficult, and only the old, young and orphans are left. Su Qingyu also noted them down and classified them as needy households. We may focus on these families in the future.

They are all part of the village, no one can be left out.

She feels that her job is a bit like the village party secretary, who first inspects, then plans, and then organizes and mobilizes. Next, we may have to do public security work, develop collective resources, and coordinate relations between all parties.

It's just that the village party secretary still has money to take, so she just wastes her brain and energy.

The mountain climbed so hard that she almost collapsed to the ground.

Uncle Zhong looked at her with a smile: "Aren't you used to it? Our mountain is quite high, about four to five hundred feet high. The mountains next door are even higher."

Su Qingyu held her knees, gasping for air, and raised her head with difficulty to glance at the top of the mountain. So high...

It's not an easy job.

If you climb a few times a day, your elephant legs can turn into stick legs.

What can be done? Then climb. Who asked her to talk big and take this job from Ma Mingwen?

After walking all morning, we finally visited nearly a hundred households. Su Qingyu originally had some ideas, but she couldn't walk anymore.

Waved his hand: "Uncle Zhong, please go back first. Have lunch and rest for an hour, and then we will walk around in the afternoon."

The two separated and Su Qingyu returned to her residence.

Xiaobao flew towards her, stuck his head on her thigh and stopped talking.

"What's going on? You're so happy to see your mother that you don't even want to talk?" Su Qingyu's heels felt like they were filled with lead, but she still picked up her son when he saw that he was having a tantrum.

Ruyi, who followed, smiled and said, "I've been looking for you several times, and you want us to take him to you. If we don't take him, we'll be speechless."

Su Qingyu pulled Xiaobao out of her shoulder: "Mom has gone to do some work. Besides, Xiaobao, look, this mountain is so high, isn't it? Mom wants to walk. If I want to hug you, I won't be able to walk. . Look, my mother’s legs are almost broken and she won’t be able to hold the baby anymore.”

Su Qingyu teased him.

When Xiaobao heard this, he was frightened. He looked down at her legs, struggled to get out of her arms, knelt down and beat her legs with his fists.

Su Qingyu was deeply moved.

I feel extremely lucky that I wanted him and gave birth to him in the first place. With this child, her life is no longer hopelessly black and white.

Su Qingyu led him around the courtyard.

I found that Lu had already planted seeds in the backyard. Ridge after ridge, very neat.

"Your mother moves very quickly."

Ruyi smiled: "My mother is good at working in the fields. Let her plow the ground and plant seeds. She is happy. In the Governor's Mansion, she doesn't know where to put her hands and feet."

"Are you two still used to living in the mountains?"

"Get used to it. My mother and I like this kind of peaceful life. And it's similar to our previous life. My mother and I like it very much. In the morning, several sisters-in-law and aunts came to talk to my mother and gave us a lot of things. They lent us hoes and shovels to grow vegetables and wild things, and the people in the village were very enthusiastic.”

"That's good. From now on, you and your mother will get along more with the people in the village and build a good relationship with them. After all, we are from outside. If we want to integrate into the village, we must have a good relationship with them."

Ruyi nodded: "Yes. We understand. My mother couldn't speak a few words in the Governor's Mansion for ten and a half months. Here, all morning, I only heard my mother's voice."

Lu was about to come and ask them to eat. Hearing this, he also smiled and said, "Ruyi and I are very comfortable here. We both like it here. We all have the same status here. We don't hide our words when talking, and it's easy to get along with them." ”

"That's good." Seeing that they adapted well, Su Qingyu felt relieved.

After dinner, Su Qingnao put Xiaobao to sleep and continued to visit the village with Master Zhong.

There are various houses built along the mountain in the village, including thatched houses, wooden houses, brick houses, civil structure houses, and stilted buildings made of bamboo. Various.

The mountain people hid in the mountains from various places for various reasons, with different origins and different nationalities. Although it has been integrated for several generations, some living habits of the ancestors are still retained.

Some have left and right wings in the front yard and back yard, some are built high, with people living above and raising livestock below, or people living below, with granaries above...all kinds of things.

There were some homeless people whose houses were empty and no one lived in them, or who had moved out and their rooms were vacant, or they lived far away from everyone. Su Qingyu had some ideas.

"There are some houses that are no longer occupied. The village can take them back and see if they can be used for other purposes. Those who live far away from us, Uncle Zhong, ask them if they want to move to live closer to us. There are a lot of wild animals in the mountains. If you are bitten by a wild animal at night, you will not be able to save it in time. If a patrol team is set up, it will be difficult to manage if you live too far. "

Uncle Zhong nodded repeatedly after hearing this: "Okay. I will tell them. I will have the empty house tidied up."

"good."

The two of them looked around the entire village.

It was seen that the villagers used the flat terrain to plant various crops and reclaim some land, but the utilization rate was not very high. Moreover, after the bandits took over this time, they ate almost all the vegetables in the field.

Su Qingyu said: "Now we have to let everyone replant some vegetables, otherwise we may not have anything to eat in the winter."

"There may not be enough seeds." Uncle Zhong was a little embarrassed.

Su Qingyu said: "I'll ask someone to go out and buy it." Then go to the governor's office and ask them to help find a solution.
