Affected by the epidemic at the beginning of last year, the garlic in Dongfeng Village, Jinxiang Township, Taobei District, Baicheng City, was unsalable, and with the active help of Jilin Daily Cailian News, the unsalable garlic was sold out, the villagers had the return funds, and the spring ploughing production was not delayed for a moment. Nearly a year has passed, how are the villagers' lives? On the day of the Lunar New Year, the reporter once again visited Dongfeng Village.
In the villager Shi Hongshuang's home, Lao Shi was very happy to see the reporter, and hurriedly beckoned us into the house, and the little granddaughter who was still in the lazy bed saw someone coming, and she climbed up with a bone and was full of childlike fun. Shi Hongshuang said that last year's life was booming, the harvest of corn, rice, cabbage and garlic planted at home was very good, the price was also good, and the income of the four agricultural products was also higher than in previous years.
"The old Shi family is very capable in the village, you see the stack of fertilizer in his yard, the year has not yet passed, and the spring ploughing is ready." Village secretary Pan Guodong said.
"Isn't this considering the epidemic situation, and it is safe to prepare early." Shi Hongshuang said with a smile.
"This year's agricultural prices are good, the villagers have a good income, the waist is bulging, the waist pole is stiff, and now walking outside is windy." After Pan Guodong finished speaking, he caused the people present to laugh loudly.
When it comes to future development, Lao Shi also has new ideas, hoping to develop some breeding industry, so that there is no need to idle in the winter, and the farm manure produced by raising cattle and sheep can also nourish the land. Lao Shi didn't want to talk too much about his new ideas, he was afraid that he would say it before he could do it. The village cadres listened to and encouraged LaoShi, saying that this is the trend of development, and if the development is good, it can drive a large number of villagers, and they will definitely find ways to support Laoshi in many ways.
Leaving Shi Hongshuang's home, the reporter came to the home of villager Xu Ling. Xu Ling is 81 years old, and his wife Wang Fengqin is 79 years old, and is cared for by his eldest son and daughter-in-law. This year, in response to the local New Year policy, Xu Zhankui, an old son who works far away in Xiamen, Fujian Province, cannot come back to visit his parents.
Pan Guodong used his mobile phone to video connect with Xu Zhankui, and Wang Fengqin said to the screen: "Old son, you are not thin, right?" ”
"Mom, I'm not skinny, I'm fine." Xu Zhankui said.
"You take care of yourself, earn money and remember to buy something delicious." Wang Fengqin said.
"Just be in good health, don't worry about me." Xu Zhankui said.
"You don't have to worry about me and your dad, it's fine." Wang Fengqin said.
Xu Zhankui at the other end of the screen was a little moved at the moment, and crystal tears flashed in the circles of his eyes.
"There is your eldest brother and sister-in-law in the family, you can rest assured!" Today, the guarantee unit began to send welfare to the poor households in our village, and the second elder will soon receive it, and the village will also take care of the second elder. Pan Guodong said.
"This country is good, the Communist Party is good." Wang Fengqin said.
"You take care of yourself outside, you want to connect the video when you want to be family. I'm here to give you a good new year, Happy New Year! Pan Guodong said.
"Thank you! When the epidemic is over, we will go home and reunite. Xu Zhankui said.
When leaving Dongfeng Village, the reporter found that the severe cold of this winter could not freeze the nearby Tao'er River, and the bright sunlight shone on the water, sparkling, and the river constantly melted the ice and snow along the coast, bringing the breath of spring.
