C257 It was a big scene

The entire night was spent in excitement, it wasn't easy for him to convince himself to sleep. Early in the morning, Du Ruiqi woke up before the alarm clock could wake up.

She had finished washing her face and when she went downstairs, she saw that Xu Wenjuan had also come down.

In the party committee, Du Ruiqi only notified Xu Wenjuan to go to the village to meet Governor Lee and Mayor Lin.

The two women purposely dressed up today. They cleaned up more grandly than usual and even put on some makeup to show their feelings to the audience.

The two of them smiled when they saw each other's appearance.

After breakfast, it was not even eight o'clock yet. Du Ruiqi asked the driver to drive the two of them to the village ahead of time to check on their preparations.

The carriage had just arrived at the entrance of the village, and Du Ruiqi was stunned by the scene in front of him!

On both sides of the road were villagers, men and women, young and old, many of whom were still carrying their children. Everyone was looking forward to the arrival of the carriage.

As expected, at the entrance of the village, an eye-catching welcoming banner was hoisted up: Warmly welcome the provincial, municipal and county leaders to visit the Yu He's most beautiful ancient village — — Daxing Village.

The white character on the red cloth, the thick body of the Song Dynasty, could be seen from a distance. It was extremely eye-catching!

What made Du Ruiqi even more surprised was that eighth grandpa was actually leading a band and standing at the very front of the group. Seeing that Du Ruiqi had arrived, he gave the order and the gongs and drums started to chime! It was majestic!

Du Ruiqi quickly walked in front of eighth grandpa and said with a smile: "eighth grandpa, the village is truly full of talented people!"

"A country band. When you have nothing to do, just ring the gong and play the drums. It can be useful at critical moments." eighth grandpa laughed and said.

"Let's stop here for now, we'll welcome Governor Lee and the others when they arrive!" Du Ruiqi said.

"Let's welcome Dushuji first!" eighth grandpa said loudly. Then, he waved his hand, and the sound of the gongs and drums became louder!

Hehe, no need, I come to the village almost every day, and I'm already a regular customer. Governor Lee and I will welcome you when you come, let them rest first! Du Ruiqi said, she was not used to welcoming scenes like this yet. Besides, if someone else were to see this scene, what kind of misunderstanding would it cause? The governor didn't come, so he welcomed her first? Then isn't she older than the governor? If this little report was sent to the Leader, then she wouldn't be able to eat it, nor would she be able to keep track of it! Thinking about how Xu Lin beat up Wu Jinwen with his little reports, Du Ruiqi felt that he should be careful in all aspects, and should not leave any clues for others, or else he would be dead meat!

"It's fine, let them warm up first, welcome Dushuji and Mayor Xu!" eighth grandpa laughed and said.

After they had knocked for a long time, he waved his hand in the air and said, "Alright, let the welcoming ceremony come to an end!"

The gong sound immediately stopped!

It seemed like he was really good at leading! Zhang Chi had a certain speed, he was able to control them as he pleased! Du Ruiqi sighed in her heart.

The villagers looked at Du Ruiqi, and some of them started to ask: "Dushuji, when will the governor come?" He looked anxious.

"Soon. After 9 o'clock. Wait a little longer." Du Ruiqi said with a smile.

"We've only seen the governor on television. We've never seen a real person before?" A villager said, fascinated.

"That's right, do you think that the governor is the same as those officials in the central government?" Another villager commented, "Watching the Central Leaders on TV, they all like to hold their hands and ask about the warm weather. So intimate!"

"It's all the same to me. The more senior officials are, the better they are for the commoners!"

Everyone started to discuss, all very interested in the Governor Lee that was about to arrive.

Under everyone's endless anticipation, a line of carriages appeared on the road.

The police car drove off, and a few cars followed behind as they drove towards the intersection of Daxing Village.

"It's here, it's here! The governor is here!" The villagers began to shout excitedly.

"Everyone, show us your best!" eighth grandpa said to the villagers, "Start the gongs and drums!"

The only sound that could be heard was the sound of the gongs and drums in the sky. It was much more imposing than the warm-up exercise just now!

The police car stopped at the side and the first Provincial Government plate car stopped right in front. A young man quickly got off and ran to the back door of the car and opened it. A tall, imposing middle-aged man walked out!

Governor Lee! Du Ruiqi was the first to go forward.

"Governor Lee, welcome to Daxing Village!" Du Ruiqi said excitedly as she held Li Chengxin's hand.

"Rui Qi, this is going to be a big scene!" Are the drums from the village? " Li Chengxin looked at Du Ruiqi and said with a smile.

"Yes, Governor Lee. When the villagers are free, they would organize their own gongs and drums to beat the gongs, beat the drums, and amuse themselves!" Du Ruiqi said.

"Hur hur, good, good. Looks like the cultural life of us commoners is quite rich!" Li Chengxin said happily.

Xu Wenjuan also came over, respectfully holding Li Chengxin's hand, and introduced herself.

"Hello, Governor Lee, I am Xu Wenjuan. Welcome to Daxing Village! " Xu Wenjuan said.

"Good, you two female generals are really heroic and unyielding!" Li Chengxin shook Xu Wenjuan's hand and said with a smile.

Lin Jie followed closely behind, following along Huang Zhonghua, Jiang Can Lai and other leaders of the County Council.

Du Ruiqi and Xu Wenjuan also respectfully shook hands with them one by one.

When he shook Huang Zhonghua's hand, Du Ruiqi felt that his eyes were very special.

Seemingly a little worried, Du Ruiqi smiled and said: "Welcome, Phellodendron!" Then she shook his big hand forcefully with her own, conveying her firm confidence.

Li Chengxin walked in front, followed by Lin Jie, Huang Zhonghua, and Jiang Can. The other members of the county followed behind. A dozen policemen were following them. They were wearing plain clothes. They looked serious and alert. Du Ruiqi was very familiar with them.

Li Chengxin waved to the villagers as he walked, a kind and kind smile hung on his face.

The idyllic scenery in front of him was very beautiful. In the surrounding farmland, the grasses had already been harvested. There was a large patch of green, and within the vegetable field, there were rows and rows of green, giving off a green glow under the illumination of the sun.

"Hello, Governor! Welcome to Yu He's most beautiful ancient village — — Daxing Village! " The villagers shouted in unison.

"Good, good morning to the villagers!" Governor Lee waved his hands, greeting the villagers and nodding his head repeatedly.

Li Chengxin walked into the crowd, and the policemen beside were extremely nervous, they immediately ran to the front, as though they were blocking the villagers from getting close to Governor Lee.

Li Chengxin looked at the young man in front of him and became displeased.

eighth grandpa was standing right in front of the crowd, welcoming them enthusiastically. He held Governor Lee's hand and said: "Governor Lee, when we heard that you were coming, we were so excited that we couldn't sleep! Welcome, Governor Lee, every villager of our Daxing Village wholeheartedly welcome your arrival! "

"Hehe, thank you!" "You are that —"

"This old one weighs eight kilograms, is ranked eighth, and is known as eighth grandpa." eighth grandpa laughed and said.

"eighth grandpa, from the sound of it, you sound like a landowner from the old society!" Li Chengxin laughed and said.

"Yes, our ancestors were once landlords." eighth grandpa also laughed and said.

The villagers all crowded over, wanting to get close to Governor Lee, shake hands with him, talk to him, and feel the feelings of a big boss.

However, the few policemen always stood in front of them, trying to keep the villagers behind so that they wouldn't get in contact with Li Chengxin.

Li Chengxin looked at Huang Zhonghua beside him, his expression stern.

Huang Zhonghua immediately noticed it, and immediately waved to Yuan Hao, who was behind him, signalling him to keep the policemen at a proper distance.

Yuan Hao gestured to them, and they immediately retreated back to the outskirts of Li Chengxin, but they still maintained a high degree of vigilance.

eighth grandpa, who was following behind Du Ruiqi, also saw this subtle change. The corners of his mouth curled into a smile that was difficult to detect.

Li Chengxin shook hands with the villagers in front of him, while saying, "Good day fellow villagers, thank you for all the hard work!"

"Greetings, Governor! Greetings, Governor!" The villagers were all excited, all their gazes focused on Li Chengxin's face.

Li Chengxin walked to the side of a young mother. He looked at the child in his arms and couldn't help but hug the little darling from the mother's arms. He looked at the child lovingly, and occasionally played with the child's blushing little face.

At this moment, he heard the sound of a camera flashing. Du Ruiqi looked and saw that Deng Nianrong was holding up his long spear to snatch the best lens!

How could Deng Nianrong have such a perfect nose! He had never missed major events! It was unknown what kind of wind had brought him here today!

Du Ruiqi turned around and saw that the Xinjiang City Television Station was also here! If that was the case, then it was not strange, and if she was not mistaken, Lin Jie must have informed them! Du Ruiqi thought.

She even saw Zhu Qingyun's figure in the group. I wonder what kind of script would be written when he and Deng Nianrong appeared in the same place at the same time? Du Ruiqi really wanted to see.

He slowly walked into the village and arrived at the longest central road. There was an ancient alley paved with limestone, and on both sides of the road, there were old houses made of gray brick and gray tiles.

Li Chengxin watched on as he walked, nodding his head repeatedly, and laughed: "Not bad, not bad, very special!"

The female teacher who understood the history of the village the best was already waiting at the entrance of the alleyway. She began to act as a lecturer for the leaders.

"Welcome to Daxing Village, Mayor Lin, and all leaders to visit and guide us!" The female teacher's voice was loud and rich, sounding very comfortable.

"Daxing Village still preserves the once bustling scenery of three streets and six lanes. Many ancient residences and study rooms are deeply hidden in the alleys. "There are a dozen or so large ancient mansions, such as the Wei Yuan Palace, the Doctor's Estate, the Zhao Clan's ancestral hall, and so on. These buildings are made from a collection of stone carvings, wood carvings, colored paintings, and other Yu He's folk art. They combine the architectural styles of Song, Yuan, Ming, Qing and the Republic of China throughout the ages …" Zhao Minli's explanation was like a trickle down a stream, flowing along the way.
