Zhang Yang drove them to Shangqinghe Village in his jeep. An Zhiyuan specifically asked Zhang Yang to stop at the archway at the entrance of the village. After getting off the car, he picked up his camera and took some photos at the archway.

Zhang Yang told An Zhiyuan the allusion he heard from Liu Chuankui, the old party secretary. An Zhiyuan couldn't help laughing. He shook his head and said: "This archway was only erected during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. Why?

In memory of an old widow in Shangqinghe Village. The widow gave birth to three sons. Her husband passed away when the sons were very young. The widow was born with extraordinary beauty. Many people advised her to remarry while she was still young, but they were all rejected by her.

She refused, and later the widow worked hard to raise her three sons. All three sons passed the Jinshi examination and became high officials. Emperor Qianlong was impressed by the widow's chastity, so he gave her this memorial arch."

An Yuchen said: "Grandpa, I heard you tell this story when I was a child. It turns out that the archway was built here!"

An Zhiyuan patted the pillars of the archway and said: "I remember that when I was a child, I could still see some of the writing on it clearly, but now it has been blurred by the wind and rain, and I can't see anything clearly. Time flies like an arrow!"

An Yuchen was very interested in this ancient archway and stood in front of it and took a few photos. However, this girl was very strange. She wore sunglasses and a mask when taking photos, which made her look very confused.

The guy smiled and said: "You like archways so much, why not persuade your grandfather to invest in your hometown, and I will build one for you!"

An Yuchen glared at him and ignored him at all.

An Zhiyuan said with a smile: "How can this archway be erected casually? In ancient times, only chaste and virtuous women were qualified to erect an archway!"

An Yuchen was unhappy when he heard this: "Grandpa, how can you talk? Am I not a chaste and martyr woman?"

An Zhiyuan and Zhang Yang laughed at the same time. An Yuchen said to Zhang Yang with a cold face: "Why are you laughing?"

Zhang Yang has a look of helplessness on his face. I'm so paralyzed that I can offend you by laughing. Aren't you just a bourgeois daughter from the colony? If you piss me off, I'll find a fucking opportunity to dictatorize you! Of course, Mr. Zhang was just thinking in his heart.

At this time, Liu Xin'e, the women's director of Shangqinghe Village, passed by the archway on her bicycle. When she saw Zhang Yang, she hurriedly got out of the car and said with a smile on her face: "Director Zhang, why didn't you notify me beforehand when you came?" Liu Xin'e has recently reported one after another.

She received a bonus from the Family Planning Office for several cases of extranatal care, and Zhang Yang was also the one who commended the advanced workers. Zhang Yang was her direct leader, so she was naturally very enthusiastic when she saw Zhang Yang coming.

Zhang Yang smiled and said: "It's not for official business. No, my uncle is here. I'll take him around to see you!"

An Zhiyuan laughed secretly that this boy could really talk nonsense, and he suddenly became his uncle.

Liu Xin'e looked at An Zhiyuan and then at An Yuchen, who was covering her head tightly: "This is..."

"My niece!" Zhang Yang said brazenly.

An Yuchen almost lost his breath because of him. This guy was shamelessly taking advantage of her, but it was hard to tell the truth in front of Liu Xin'e, so he could only glare at Zhang Yang fiercely through his sunglasses.

, if her eyes were knives, Zhang Yang would have been poked into a hornet's nest by her at this time.

An Zhiyuan was indeed an old fox. He followed Zhang Yang's words and said, "Hello, I am from the Jiangcheng Federation of Literary and Art Circles. I am here to collect some materials and write a novel."

When Liu Xin'e heard that Mr. An was a writer, her eyes immediately shone. After all, in the eyes of these simple villagers, intellectuals are covered with a sacred halo. Liu Xin'e was a little excited and said: "Mr. An is in the right place."

, Our Shangqinghe Village is a place with a long culture and history. Let’s not talk about anything else. Just say that this archway has a history of thousands of years..." The result was naturally that the allusion Zhang Yang had said was told again.

An Zhiyuan listened patiently, but the old man's self-control was still admirable. He listened to Liu Xin'e's nonsense for a long time, but he didn't show any impatience. An Yuchen kept his face covered, so he couldn't see her clearly.

Zhang Yang felt frustrated after hearing the expression on his face, and finally couldn't help but interrupt Liu Xin'e: "Is the old party secretary here?"

"No, I went to the county!"

An Zhiyuan smiled and said: "I heard that there was an anti-Japanese hero Sun Erniang here in the past. I wonder if she was from Shangqinghe Village?"

Liu Xin'e couldn't help but glance at An Zhiyuan, and she whispered: "Yes, yes, but as early as the Anti-Japanese War, she died with the Japanese holding a grenade."

An Zhiyuan whispered: "Is her grave here?"

Liu Xin'e shook her head and said: "It's long gone. I heard that Sun Erniang was the woman of An DaHu, the leader of the horse bandits. After An DaHu's death, she lived incognito in Shangqinghe Village. She was not a Japanese bomber.

People, but a few traitors who had an idea for her. Those people saw that Sun Erniang was orphaned and widowed, and they had evil thoughts towards Sun Erniang. You think Sun Erniang was the wife of An Dabeard Yazhai, and her temper was not generally strong.

She grabbed a grenade and fired it, and several traitors who wanted to bully her were blown up to the sky."

An Zhiyuan nodded and said, "Does Sun Erniang have no relatives?"

Liu Xin'e sighed and said: "I heard that she had a son, but after the explosion, her son disappeared. Some said he was dead, and some said he escaped, but I haven't heard any news for so many years. It seems that he is dead.

"

Liu Xin'e suddenly remembered that the pigs at home had not been fed yet, so she said goodbye to Zhang Yang and left in a hurry.

Zhang Yang heard some clues from the sidelines, could this An Zhiyuan be the one born by An Dahu and Sun Erniang? This matter involves people's privacy, so it is difficult to ask.

An Zhiyuan asked An Yuchen, "Do you know why she is called Sun Erniang?"

An Yuchen shook his head in confusion: "Why?" In fact, Zhang Yang was also full of doubts, but this was a family matter, and it was not easy for him to ask, nor was he qualified to ask.

An Zhiyuan said: "She is my stepmother. When my father married her, I was already ten years old. She was very good to me. I always called her Erniang. After calling her for a long time, everyone followed me and called her Erniang.

Mom, I even forgot her original name. When Black Wind Village was wiped out, most of my father and brothers died in the battle. I thought I was the only one who escaped. When I came back in 1988, I heard about Sun Erniang’s story.

, it turns out that Er Niang also escaped, and she took my brother with her."

An Zhiyuan couldn't help but feel a little sad when he said this. He breathed a deep sigh of relief and said, "Second mother is dead. It seems that I no longer have any relatives in Heishanzi."

Zhang Yang wanted to say something like, people in our hometown are all relatives who live in old age, but then he thought, people have heard this kind of high-sounding words a lot, and speaking it out made people feel hypocritical and suspected of deliberately trying to get close, so he simply kept silent.

An Yuchen was very moved after hearing Sun Erniang's deeds. She blurted out in Cantonese when she was excited. Zhang Yang, who was mumbling, didn't hear what she said clearly and stared at her blankly with a pair of big eyes.

Mr. An laughed, nodded and said, "Yes, we should build a memorial arch for Er Niang!"

Only then did Zhang Yang understand that the girl who had been chattering for a long time wanted to build an archway for her second grandma. Thinking about it, it was a good thing, so what... This archway can be considered an investment, and it can also be considered as opening an investment office.

Good start.

Zhang Yang accompanied Mr. An around Shangqinghe Village and came to the address of Sun Erniang's old house. Now with the changes in the village layout, it has become a wasteland. An Zhiyuan stood on that wasteland for a long time.

He went to Zhang Yang and made a request: "Director Zhang, I have a wish!"

Zhang Yang nodded and said, "Mr. An, please tell me!"

An Zhiyuan said: "I have had a wish for many years. I want to find my father's bones and bury him and my second mother together. Now I finally found his old man's bones."

Zhang Yang understood what An Zhiyuan meant. After Sun Erniang pulled the grenade, she turned into fly ash. It is estimated that her ashes are here. Moving An Dabeard's tomb here is equivalent to giving them two

People were buried together.

It seems that An Zhiyuan has had this idea for a long time. Now that his father's grave has been found, the conditions for a joint burial are ripe, so An Zhiyuan proposed to buy this land to build a cemetery, and also planned to build an archway at the entrance of the village.

Zhang Yang agreed without thinking. As long as he could make An Lao happy and let him invest in Chunyang, this condition was nothing at all. Speaking of Chunyang, he went up to Li Changyu, the county party secretary, and down to Shangqinghe Village.

Liu Chuankui, the old party secretary, had a good relationship with him, and getting a cemetery was not something that could be done in a matter of minutes.

An Zhiyuan is not in a hurry to leave. Recently, he has to inspect Jiangcheng. His words reveal that he already has the intention to invest in the mainland. What Zhang Yang really cares about is letting him invest in Chunyang. If this happens

If a sum of money is invested elsewhere, it will certainly not be counted as his political achievements.

Before leaving Heishanzi Township, An Zhiyuan left his contact information with Zhang Yang. From this, it can be seen that he still admires and trusts Director Zhang very much. However, An Zhiyuan also has a request. He has no intention of making a formal public appearance in Chunyang.

In the past, Zhang Yang could not expose his whereabouts. He wanted to use a week to take a good look at the urban area of ​​Jiangcheng City and the six counties, and objectively assess the economic development status of each place without being disturbed by the outside world.

***************************************************

After seeing An Zhiyuan's grandfather and grandson away, Zhang Yang returned to the township government and saw that everyone was still busy cleaning and making active preparations for the arrival of An Zhiyuan. He couldn't help but laugh secretly, thinking that An Zhiyuan was indeed a little bit...

In terms of character, government departments talk about seeking truth from facts all day long, but what they do is just superficial words. Mr. An’s behavior is called pragmatism.

Yu Qiuling appeared on the balcony on the third floor, smiled and waved to Zhang Yang: "Xiao Zhang, come here!"

Trusting the call of the township chief, Zhang Yang dared not obey. At least on the surface, he had to behave respectfully and came to the township chief's office in the eyes of many people with envy.

Yu Qiuling took out a dozen gas tickets from the drawer and gave them to him. Zhang Yang was a little flattered. You don't get reward for your merits. Township Chief Yu would definitely not give him so many gas tickets for no reason. Zhang Yang said cautiously.

: "What orders does Mayor Yu have?"

Yu Qiuling laughed: "If I give you something, I must let you do something. Xiao Zhang, Xiao Zhang, aren't you too realistic?" When she said this, Zhang Yang felt a little embarrassed, hehe

He smiled and said: "I am so moved. A scholar will die for his confidant. I am willing to go to the mountains of swords and the sea of ​​fire for the sake of the mayor. The one who frowned is the grandson." But in his heart, he secretly thought that the mayor must not like this.

Because of his beauty, he sacrificed his life heroically. He did have the courage to cuckold Deputy County Magistrate Xu, but Mayor Yu was too weak, so we couldn’t accept anything we said.

Yu Qiuling had already experienced Zhang Yang's sharp tongue and said with a smile: "You will come back to the county with me later!"

Zhang Yang nodded happily. He had given him so many gas tickets, so he should be her driver. He was secretly glad that he was not attracted by his beauty.

Yu Qiuling explained in a low voice: "Secretary Wang will be leaving in the next few days. Your brother Xu has booked a seat at Jin Kaiyue tonight to see Secretary Wang off. Don't let other people know about this."

Zhang Yang felt so comfortable. It seemed that it was no accident that Yu Xiuling became the head of the township. Not only did she have someone behind her, but she also spoke like a spring breeze. With just one sentence, "Brother Xu," the distance between you and Zhang Yang was instantly shortened, and she was ready-made

Instead of using Zhang Yang’s driver, she uses Zhang Yang’s jeep, which means that she regards Zhang Yang as one of her own. It can also be said that the entire township government only regards Zhang Yang as one of her own. This means a lot to Zhang Yang and proves that after Wang Boxiong left,

, Zhang Yang still has absolute backers in Heishanzi Township.

However, Zhang Daguan didn't have any thoughts of tears of gratitude. He went to the sword and the sea of ​​​​fire for Yu Qiuling. In other words, only a fool would do that. Although he is only the deputy director of the investment promotion office in name only, once he gets the care of the elderly,

Regarding investment, it is 100% safe to leave Heishanzi Township. Besides, he has Secretary Li of the County Party Committee behind him, so there is no need to curry favor with a female township chief who has just taken office.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Yang drove Yu Qiuling back to Chunyang. Yu Qiuling asked Zhang Yang to park the car at the County Industrial and Commercial Bureau to meet her husband Xu Zhaobin.

There was still some time before dinner in the evening. Zhang Yang drove to the county. The things Chen Chongshan asked him to bring to Chen Xue last time were not delivered in time. As a loyal person, Zhang Yang was very impressed with Chen Chongshan's character.

I still respect him very much, and he takes the things he tells me very seriously.

Zhang Yang parked the jeep in front of the county lieutenant school. Thinking about the past few months, he had unknowingly undergone earth-shaking changes. From a poor boy with no education, he is now a relatively well-known director of the township family planning office.

, Deputy Director of the County Investment Promotion Office, even a car was involved. Although it was a scrapped Jeep, it had four wheels. When Zhang Yang realized that he was feeling complacent, he immediately reminded himself to guard against arrogance and impetuosity, and to be modest and prudent.

Only in this way can greater progress be achieved politically.

After school, Chen Xue and Zhao Jing walked out of the campus together. Since the last Cupid Karaoke incident, the relationship between the two has become much closer.
