On the way back to the radar base station, Han Zhuoyu looked at the car window silently, and waited for the scenery outside to change from rows of houses to lush forests. He grabbed Lei Ting's sleeve, frowned and asked, "Does Magistrate Ma want to taking advantage of my donations through improper means,"
"Yes." Lei Ting said without hesitation. Only after experiencing more wind and rain can a teenager grow up. He will always protect him, but also hopes that he will become stronger.
"It's not easy to do good things." Han Zhuoyu pursed his lips, with sadness in his eyes. He thought that helping others was just a matter of lifting his hands, but now he realizes that his ideas are too idealistic.
"It's not easy to do anything. The greater your ability, the more responsibility you should bear. But you can't retreat because of a little difficulty. Now that you have taken the first step, you must work hard to take the second step and the third step , until reaching the finish line. Without such spirit, nothing will be successful. Do you remember?" Lei Ting tried to persuade. He is always afraid that the boy will shrink back into his shell and turn back into the puppet who never cried or laughed, so he encourages him to step out bravely whenever he has the opportunity.
"Remember." Han Zhuoyu nodded obediently. If it was before, he would never have imagined that he would become like this: being able to play with a large group of children, chatting intermittently with the elderly, and getting in touch with annoying strangers... He did what he used to never be able to do, and became Strong and optimistic. Seeing her mother in heaven must be very happy, this has always been her expectation.
"My Xiaoyu has grown up!" Lei Ting looked pleased, and gently kneaded the boy's right hand, "How do you feel recently?"
"It's much better, look." The young man tilted his head, hooked his little finger, raised his eyebrows slightly, and his pupils were smudged with a layer of golden sunset. The attachment and dependence naturally revealed, in the eyes of a man, is the ultimate temptation. It's a pity that the time and place were wrong, otherwise, he would have hugged the young man into his arms and kissed and caressed him tenderly.
"It's really much better." With his little finger hooked on the boy's little finger and shaking, Lei Ting smiled extraordinarily gently.
"Pull the hook." Lei Chen also stretched out his little finger.
"Together forever." Han Zhuoyu pulled the hook cautiously, and stamped his thumb on Lei Chen's thumb. This is not a childish joke, but a sincere promise.
Lei Ting barely restrained the surging mind, hugged the two children tightly into his arms, bowed his head and kissed their soft hair.
Ding~ Received 100 thank you points from Thunderbolt!
Ding~ Received 100 thank you points from Lei Chen!
The words of being together forever, in fact, the host can tell Xiaozheng every day. 9527 said cheaply.
’ Promises become cheap when they are overstated. 'Han Zhuoyu warned very seriously.
Host, your realm has improved again. I can't keep up with how fast you're growing. 9527 felt that he had failed so much, and went to the most popular online game to find his confidence.
Shao Yichen peeked at the scene of the three of them getting along from the rearview mirror, and the weird feeling came again.

Two days later, Mayor Ma unexpectedly received a call from the city leader, saying that a reporter from CCTV was coming to Kaiyuan for an interview and asked him to do the reception work.
"Hello, welcome to Kaiyuan." Wearing a decent suit and combing his hair meticulously, County Mayor Ma greeted Wen Han and Qi Yu with the warmest smile.
"County Ma, your Kaiyuan has developed better than we imagined." Wen Han praised.
"Thanks to the country's strong support for Kaiyuan over the past few years!" Mayor Ma laughed.
"The government building looks magnificent, must have cost a lot of money?" Wen Han pretended to be curious.
Although the camera was not turned on and the microphone was not picked up, County Mayor Ma did not let go of his vigilance, and waved his hands, "Where, we are located in a remote place with inconvenient transportation. In order to attract businessmen to invest and develop, we always have to decorate the facade .This building just looks beautiful, and the facilities inside are the most basic, and it doesn’t cost a lot of money.”
Wen Han nodded, slightly skipping the topic, the group walked and chatted, and entered the county magistrate's office to sit down.
"We are here this time to do a series of programs on advanced poverty alleviation collectives and advanced individuals. Kaiyuan is a well-known poverty-stricken county in the country. You should have many typical deeds here for us to interview?" Wen Han took a sip of hot tea, The appearance of the newcomer is very similar.
"Yes, yes! I will take you to Ma'an Township later. The poverty alleviation work there is going very smoothly. The life of the villagers is very different from five years ago. Wait a moment, I will tell the head of Qin Make a call." County Mayor Ma repeatedly agreed. Being on the CCTV news is a real achievement, which will be very beneficial to the evaluation next year. He himself came from Ma'an Township, and the current head of the township is his uncle. He always gives priority to Ma'an Township in the poverty alleviation funds allocated by the state, so the development there is very good. Whenever there are reporters from above to interview, he will take them to Ma'an Township. Of course, there were also one or two times when the reporters were uninterested, but he took care of them.
Wen Han and Qi Yu did not raise any objections, and the itinerary was quickly finalized. They had already inquired about the situation in Ma'an Township before, and knew that this was a face-saving project done by the mayor of Ma'an Township, and that the poverty alleviation work was indeed going well. But when they really entered the township, they knew how big the gap was between the township and other places. The road from the county seat to the township is a smooth concrete road with no potholes. There are rows of small single-family houses with unique shapes on the side of the road. The primary school in the town has not yet closed for holidays, and the school building covered with white tiles is covered with a layer of golden light by the warm sun. You can hear the sound of reading aloud before you get close, and the transparent and clean glass windows reflect the children's focused faces.
Compared with other towns in Kaiyuan, Ma'an Township is simply heaven. One is a face-saving project selected to cope with the inspections above, and the other is a lost place to lower the per capita income so that the county leaders can endlessly extract the national poverty alleviation funds and let it go. Such an extreme and duplicitous approach is even more distressing than indifference.
After returning to the radar base station, Wen Han and Qi Yu recorded everything they saw, heard, thought and thought on the film.
"If I am nominated for the Pulitzer Prize next year, I will definitely treat you to dinner." Before leaving, she joked to the teenager with a smile.
The humorless teenager nodded seriously.
"Remember to delete all the scenes about Xiaoyu." Lei Ting reminded in a deep voice.
"Then next year's Pulitzer Prize must be in vain!" Wen Han held his forehead, showing an expression of extreme pain.

A week later, the column broadcast by CCTV has attracted widespread attention from all walks of life. Children going to school with torches, teachers working in pigpens, villagers living in thatched huts and wooden sheds, the pictures in dark colors are extremely shocking. Then the painting style suddenly became bright and lively. The single-family houses in Ma'an Township, the villagers live a peaceful and prosperous life... When the luxurious office building of the county government and the dilapidated school building of Tongyuan Township Primary School are switched in the same picture, The topic was completely detonated.
People living in high-rise buildings did not expect that when they enjoyed the convenience brought by high technology, there were still people living such an almost primitive life. Poverty alleviation, the slogan has been shouted for many years, why has it not been helped? In the end, it is nothing but rich corrupt officials and poor people. reform! Our society needs a reform from the beginning to the end, from the inside to the outside! After deep reflection, everyone pinned their hopes on the next leader, and Lei Xu, the leader of the reformist group, once again came into the public eye and won a very high approval rate.
The county magistrate no longer has to worry about the more than 9 million holes. The secretary of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection came to Kaiyuan to investigate in person, and the new county magistrate and secretary of the county party committee will soon take office.
However, all of this has nothing to do with Han Zhuoyu, he is planning to open up a vegetable field and grow some radishes and cabbages. The family of three took a small shovel to dig the soil, dig a hole, sow seeds, water...they were very busy.
"I have a call, I'll answer it." Hearing the ringing sound from inside the house, Lei Ting inserted the small shovel into the soil, washed his hands hastily, and strode in.
This is a videophone, and Lei Xu's figure appeared on the screen, with a slight smile in his voice, "Why do you make the city full of wind and rain wherever you go? First it was Province G, and now it is City Y."

"Have you heard?" Lei Ting raised his eyebrows.
"I pay attention every day. I thought you would keep a low profile when you went to Tongyuan."
"What's low-key? When the road is injustice, draw your sword to help. This is the way our Lei family should behave! That kid is very good! I like it!" Mr. Lei pushed Lei Xu away, and laughed at the camera.
It seemed that Xiaoyu had already gained the approval of his family, and Lei Ting also laughed lowly.
"Where are the children? Let me see!" Mr. Lei stretched his neck, as if he could see the scene behind him beyond Lei Ting.
"They are growing vegetables, you wait." Lei Ting took the phone to the backyard, and pointed the camera at the two busy children, capturing their focused expressions and clumsy actions one by one.
Lei Chen has grown taller and stronger, his little face is plump and fleshy, with two healthy blushes, wearing a light green down jacket, squatting on the ground like a ball, holding a small shovel in his hand and breathing He dug a hole wheezingly, took a break when he was tired, and with a swipe of Xiaopang's hand, a black mark was stained on his forehead.
The boy squatting beside him was also wearing a light green down jacket, which made his complexion as white as jade and his eyes as picturesque. Seeing Lei Ting approaching with his mobile phone in hand, he involuntarily hooked his lips, revealing two sweet dimples.
The hearts of the Lei family on the other end of the phone almost melted. These two children are getting more and more annoying. Look at those little eyes, how bright and clean they are!
"Grandpa's call, come quickly." Lei Ting waved.
Lei Chen was unmoved, Xiaopang grabbed a large handful of cabbage seeds and threw them into the pit.
"Throw too much, just one or two." Han Zhuoyu put the excess rapeseed into another pit, pulled the bear child and walked over.
Mr. Lei has been a soldier all his life, and his face is more majestic than Lei Ting's, which makes Han Zhuoyu a little uneasy.
Lei Ting took his hand and squeezed it lightly.
The mind was settled at once, Han Zhuoyu greeted politely, then bowed his head and ordered, "Call someone."
"Grandfather!" Receiving the instruction, Lei Chen opened his voice and called out.
"Hey, my dear grandson!" Mr. Lei almost burst into laughter.
"And me!" Lei Xu, who was pushed away, returned to the camera.
"Uncle!"
"Oddly obedient!" Lei Xu, who had always been calm, laughed loudly.
Hearing the movement, Lei's family crowded in front of the camera one by one to beg for help. Lei Chen raised his head and called out, his voice loud and full of energy.
It's a pity that they didn't touch the mark on Xiaozheng's body, otherwise you, the host, will receive a lot of thank you! 9527 regretted the opening.
Han Zhuoyu pursed his lips and did not answer. Seeing Uncle Lei's family so happy and excited, it doesn't matter whether there is any gratitude or not.
The author has something to say: This week I accompanied my mother to Mount Fanjing to burn incense and worship Buddha. I have been on the road and have no time code, so I can’t double-update it. Feel sorry.
There are so many things at the end of the year, and I can't calm down to conceive. I feel that I have reached the burnout period of writing. I turn on the computer for an hour or two before typing two or three hundred words. All kinds of depression~
I hope that after accepting the Buddha's light, I can find inspiration again~ Amitabha
