Ma Tao grabbed Old Mrs. Wu's hand and nodded vigorously.

"Grandma, don't worry, there is no problem now. As long as you don't over-exercise and try to protect your heart, there should be no problems.

Grandma, you should pay attention. Although it is the Chinese New Year, you should not be overworked. I don’t want to receive your call and rush to the city again.”

Old Mrs. Wu nodded and turned to look at her relatives. A relieved smile appeared on her face.

Mayor Wu walked towards Ma Tao and looked at his mother.

"Ma Tao, don't worry, even if my mother wants to do it, we dare not let him do it.

He is a patient now, and his illness has improved a little bit. Even if we run off our legs, we dare not let my mother move a little.

Don't worry, we will stare at him."

Wu Sheng still seemed a little awkward. She glanced at Ma Tao, opened her mouth and wanted to say it, but she didn't say it, and turned around and returned to her room.

Ma Tao and Du Zhongwei looked at each other, and when they looked at Wu Sheng, they thought of He Ren. It was also so awkward for those who helped him.

Mayor Wu smiled embarrassedly and turned his head to glance at his son.

"Ma Tao, Du Zhongwei, don't bother with her. He is still young and just worried about his grandmother. He has no other thoughts in his heart, nor does he mean to blame you."

Du Zhongwei then bent and glanced at the upstairs with a faint corner of his mouth.

"Mayor Wu, don't worry. We are already old, so why do you feel awkward with these children? They will be sad. They won't be able to get better after a while."

Director He came over and patted Mayor Wu on the shoulder.

"Since the old lady is nothing wrong with the old lady, we are leaving now. There is still something wrong in the village. Ma Tao has to hurry back. The Chinese New Year is coming soon. There are many activities in this village every year, and we are still waiting for Ma Tao to take care of it."

Mayor Wu nodded, he patted his forehead, and he was happy to forget about this matter for a moment, and even forgot that Ma Tao was still a village chief.

"Yes, yes, then you hurry back. There must be a lot of things in the village, and the villagers are just looking forward to you going back. You are the backbone of the village now. I have heard before that you are doing well in the village. How about you? Do you have any ideas? Should you transfer to the city to work?"

Ma Tao was a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say.

Director He sighed, and knew that Ma Tao was a responsible and responsible person. He could not leave the villagers casually and ignored him. He turned to look at Mayor Wu.

"Let's talk about this later. Now let her hurry back to the village, but the villagers will lose their backbone. I'm afraid this year will not be a good year."

Mayor Wu and Mayor Wu's wife sent Ma Tao and the others out. Ma Tao got into Director He's car, and Director He personally sent Ma Tao and Du Zongwei to the village.

"Taozi, don't blame Uncle He for talking too much. You and Du Zhongwei are both responsible and capable people. You can't be in the same village in the future. You will definitely have your own development. Do you have any plans to go where you are about to go in the future? You can't stay in this village all the time?

Ma Tao, now you have Qin Wen, you want to give Qin Wen a future. The couple cannot separate for a long time. You two must have a fixed location, or you can transfer Qin Wen to the village, or you can transfer to the city. After all, this is the problem you two face and must be solved.

Zhongwei, I promise you to find a partner for you at our unit. This is not just a matter of saying this, but have you ever thought that if the partner is found, what are your plans? If someone doesn’t want to come to the village with you, are you willing to go to the city or always be willing to follow Ma Tao?”

Before Du Zhongwei lowered his head, he had a very short relationship. The relationship was deeply buried in his mind. He also knew that the woman was not a serious woman, but she still left a little bit of space for him in her heart.

Du Zhongwei hesitated a little. He didn't know where his future was, nor did he know what to do next, but there was a voice in his heart that he was willing to follow Ma Tao.

"Uncle He, I will think about this matter carefully. Don't worry, I will definitely give Qin Wen an explanation at that time."

Director He sighed and held the steering wheel tightly with both hands. He couldn't make a decision for Ma Tao and Du Zhongwei, so he could only hit him slightly.

"You young people are old and each has their own thoughts. I just want to talk about my thoughts. You just need to keep them in your heart and think carefully. No matter where you are, I will eventually respect your decision."

The car was very quiet, no one spoke, and everyone lowered their heads, as if they were immersed in their own thoughts and could not extricate themselves.

After Director He sent Ma Tao and Du Zhongwei to the village, he drove back to the city in a car, and he was delayed on the road this day.

Wang Meili waited for it and finally came back to Ma Tao and Du Zhongwei. She hurriedly ran over from a distance.

"Director, you are back. You don't know that this village knows that you have gone to the city and lost your backbone. No matter how I tell them, they don't believe it. They just hope you will come back. If you don't come back, I'm afraid I can't take charge of the overall situation."

Ma Tao smiled, wondering if it was as serious as Wang Meili said. As soon as he looked up, he watched the villagers run out of his home and surrounded Ma Tao.

"Director, you are back. I thought you were in the city to become an official, and you didn't want us."

"Yes, Director, you are our backbone, you are our hope. You can't leave us alone. Our village has finally improved a little. We need to change another village chief. I don't know where our happy life is?"

The villagers were frightened by Ma Tao's behavior. As the Chinese New Year was about to come, this incident happened again, and they couldn't sleep well at home.

Ma Tao smiled and stretched out his palm.

"Don't panic, go back and have a good New Year. Don't worry, even if I leave, I will say hello to you. I will definitely tell you that I will not leave silently."

The villagers looked back and looked at Ma Tao and walked towards their homes. They could finally put their hearts in their stomachs and have a good New Year now.

Ma Tao and Du Zhongwei were very tired. They hurried back home, tied their heads to the kang, and it was better to have a pillow.

I slept directly this time. The next day, the sun was on the 30th day, and today it was New Year's Eve, and I would have the New Year's Eve dinner tonight.

Many villagers ran to Ma Tao's home, hoping to invite Ma Tao to their home for the New Year.

Ma Tao refused one by one. This was his first year in the village for the New Year. He planned to cook some dishes with Du Zhongwei himself, and the two of them watched the moon celebrate the New Year together.

Du Zhongwei opened his eyes and climbed up from the bed. The sun shone brightly on his eyes. He hurriedly stretched out a hand to block the dazzling light.

Ma Tao was busy in the yard, sweeping the yard with a broom in his hand, humming a little song happily, and always smiling on his face.

Du Zhongwei quickly got up from the bed, put on his shoes, and ran outside the house. There were red couplets and red lanterns hanging in the yard, and there was a festive atmosphere everywhere.

"Why are you getting up so early? You don't even shout at me when you hang a lantern. I'll go shopping with you."

Ma Tao stopped what he was doing and threw the broom to Du Zhongwei.

"I just saw that you were sleeping soundly, so I didn't call you. The yard is very dirty, so just sweep it. I'll go to the kitchen to prepare the meal. Today I will take care of it and make a New Year's Eve dinner."

Du Zhongwei agreed, anyway, her cooking skills were not as good as Ma Tao’s friend Ma Tao’s cooking skills, so she swept the yard by herself.

Ma Tao walked into the kitchen. He cleaned up the prepared fish and placed it on a plate, marinated it with salt, soy sauce, green onion and ginger. He also chose a plate of green vegetables, put it in a basin, washed it clean and cut it for later use.

The New Year’s Eve dinner in the village is said to be the New Year’s Eve dinner, but they are all served at five or six in the afternoon. If you want a string of firecrackers before eating, it indicates that the coming year will be prosperous.

Ma Tao has been busy in the kitchen. She first smashed the fish and threw it into the pot. The smell of fish came to her nose in a while. Ma Tao began to lit another photo, picked up a large spoon and stir-fried the green and faint dishes.

Du Zhongwei took out the dishes from the kitchen and placed them on the table. He took the wine on the table, took two more cups and placed them on both ends.

Ma Tao washed his hands and walked in from outside. He looked at the neatly arranged dishes on the table, smiled at Du Zhongwei, and sat opposite Du Zhongwei.

Du Zhongwei handed Ma Tao a glass of wine, he picked up another glass of wine and touched Ma Tao for a while.

"Brother, this is not sure what year we have been together for the New Year, but the first time we celebrate the New Year in the village, and you are the first year you have become the director. I will congratulate you here."

Ma Tao smiled, and after a while he touched Du Zhongwei, he put it beside his mouth and took a sip.

"This year is really not easy. Many things have happened. I never thought I could become the village chief."

Du Zhongmei held the chopsticks and ate the dishes on the table, and gave Ma Tao a thumbs up.

"This New Year's Eve dinner is really good. Although only two of us eat this New Year's Eve dinner, my buddy feels comfortable.

Oh, it seems like I have forgotten one thing. We forgot to ring firecrackers. You wait, I will set off firecrackers now."

Du Zhongwei put down his chopsticks and hurriedly ran out. He smoked a cigarette, put it beside his mouth, took a few sips, and then lit the prepared firecrackers.
