The villagers were holding late New Year's pictures and calendars, their eyes filled with passion and simplicity, as they forcefully dragged me and Colleagues to our homes for tea.

At that moment, my heart was filled with joy, and so was Colleagues. I could clearly see the curiosity and excitement in their eyes.

Teacher Wang said as he pointed to a middle-aged woman standing nearby. She was looking at me timidly and smiling embarrassedly.

I didn't know how to tell Old Xing that I couldn't bring this matter up on my own accord, so wouldn't this mean that there was nothing worth mentioning here? Even if I brought this up, even if Old Xing believes that I didn't set a trap for him behind his back, wouldn't that mean that Old Xing and Old Li were going to have a falling out. The two of them would have to stick around in the mountains for another year.

Originally, I had an important purpose in trying to clarify the truth with old Xing, but at this point, I suddenly changed my mind. It was not easy for both of them to have a falling out. The two of them were at a loss every day. What would the villagers think? This not only affected their image, but also tarnished the newspaper's image and the image of their superiors.

I couldn't help but think of what Liu Yue had said before: learn to be lenient to others, learn to work and live in the midst of misunderstanding and criticism.

I couldn't help but recall the year of humiliation and suffering that Liu Yue had to endure in the capital. Compared to her, what kind of misunderstanding was this?

I weighed my innocence against the relationship between Old Xing and Old Li for a moment, then made a quick decision. I couldn't break the grand unity of the situation, couldn't destroy the general situation for my own sake, and as long as I had a sincere heart, Old Xing would understand sooner or later.

Thinking about this, I withdrew my original thoughts and sincerely said to Old Xing, "Big Brother, don't say that. We're colleagues, and you're still my senior. In my eyes, you'll always be my respected big brother. I've come today to visit some of my fellow villagers. I've come to see you and Old Li …"

Just as I finished speaking, Old Li hurriedly took it over. "Aiya, Director Jiang said too good. Welcome, welcome. Old Xing and I have always been worried about you.

Old Xing frowned at my unperturbed gaze. He stopped teasing me and picked up my bag. "Come on, let's go to the office!"

"I'll do it myself!" I'm busy being polite.

Old Xing stopped and looked at me. "Brother, why are you being so courteous when you've just received a promotion? Since we were in the mountains over a year, when have you been so polite with me? If you really think I'm your big brother, then don't play around with me. Why are you being so courteous? "Let's go wash our faces and prepare to eat. I've already stewed the entire lamb soup."

I knew then that in order to welcome us, old Xing and the village chief had bought a black goat and made us a whole pot of lamb soup.

At that moment, I heard tolerance and boldness in Old Xing's voice. Perhaps he really thought I had done it, and he accepted me with the indulgence and grace of an elder brother.

I was touched again.

When the whole lamb soup was served, the old Xing personally placed a large bowl in front of me and then poured me white wine from a black porcelain bowl.

I sat there and didn't say anything more. I was afraid old Xing wouldn't be happy.

Then, Old Xing picked up the bowl of wine and looked at me. "Come, brother, let's not talk about anything else. Just based on our friendship for a year, this brother will treat you like a toast. Let's drink New Year's wine!" "Cheers!"

As he spoke, old Xing picked up the wine bowl and downed it in one gulp.

My mind raced a little, and I picked up the bowl of wine: "Big Brother Xing, thanks to big brother's great love, little brother understands your feelings for me, Xiao Jiang, and I, Xiao Jiang, do not dare to call myself a noble person, but at any time, I will definitely not do anything that would harm my own dignity, or my brothers' feelings, for today's wine, little brother respects big brother!"

After saying that, I also finished my drink in one gulp.

What I just said about my character was something that Liu Yue had personally said to me on the phone. I remember it clearly.

After saying that, I noticed that Old Li's expression was a little unnatural.

Old Xing didn't say anything after hearing my words. He put down his wine bowl and patted me on the shoulder. He suddenly laughed. "Brother, I believe in you this time!"

I smiled back, reached out, and slapped Old Xing hard on the shoulder.

The widest part of the world is the sea. The sky is wider than the sea, and the sky is bigger than the sky.

Later on, Old Xing returned to the newspaper as an ordinary Normal level worker.

After that, I found out the truth of the matter and returned my innocence.

Afterwards, old Xing regained his previous position and played an irreplaceable role in Liu Yue and I's battle with Ma Shuji, Liu Fei and Mei Ling.

Of course, that was something to be said later.

Over the next few days, my Colleagues began to conduct local interviews and wind collecting activities in the Shihu Village.

As for me, I will always remember the special mission that Ma Shuji gave me. Although I already know a bit about the poverty reduction team, I will still enter and talk about it, to understand the situation in Poverty Alleviation Group during this period.

Old Xing and Old Li were very interested in my whereabouts. They thought I was advertising their brilliant performance in an interview, giving them strong support and support.

I couldn't tell anyone what I was going to do. I just kept going in silence.

I understand the situation very carefully, very specifically, the time and place figures are all very detailed.

"With our efforts, it looks like we'll have to heavily publicize ourselves. Maybe our names will appear in our newspapers again very soon?" Old Li chuckled and said, "Ever since Director Jiang descended the mountain, I haven't been able to see the poverty diary anymore. This time, I have it again, haha …"

Old Xing looked at Old Li, but didn't say anything.

I looked at Old Li and smiled, but didn't say anything.

Every evening, when I had finished my work, I would come to the rock where I had sat up straight and meditated countless times, and, as in the past year, I would gaze out at the last glow of the sunset, at the continuous hills under the sunset …

Just like in the past, I couldn't help but think of Liu Yue. I thought of the woman that I once owned and still deeply buried in my heart, thought of those beautiful days of the past, thought of the joy of my tears, thought of those unforgettable times of the Sea Oath Mountain Alliance, thought of those miserable and depressing eyes …

In this familiar mountain, in this familiar rock, in this familiar sunset sunset, my heart throbbed, my emotions surged, my love is endless, my sorrow, my sadness from the heart...

Life is fate, life is fate, the vast sea of people, with the flow of people, sad, happy, it is fate, I think so despondently, eyes wet.

Sometimes Teacher Wang would come and sit with me on this rock and tell me about his yearning for a better life, about the prospects of the Ishigami Elementary School, about his determination and his will to cultivate his children into talents, about the ordinary and happy life that had taken place in his entire family.

"What is happiness? For me, peace and tranquility are my greatest happiness! " Teacher Wang and I murmured as we gazed at the red sun that was about to set on the distant mountain.

I was shocked. I turned my head to look at Teacher Wang's slightly hunched body and his bronze wrinkled face that didn't match his age. Suddenly, I realized something …

A week later, the event ended. As the people of Shihu Village and the children of the school lined up to send us off, we parted ways with everyone. We left the Shihu Village, and left the mountain where I had been rooted for a year.

"Uncle Jiang, when are you coming back?" Teacher Wang's daughter nestled in my mother's arms, holding my hand, eyes filled with tears.

I looked at the child's innocent, hopeful face and stroked his two beautifully braided braids, which must have been tied by my mother, who since her return had said goodbye to the unkempt, unkempt days.

How nice to have a mother.

I suddenly thought of Ni Ni, and Ni Ni who was calling for my mother.

My eyes moistened again as I patted the child's face. "Good child, uncle will come back to see you when he has time. I'll buy you some good books and learning equipment …"

Teacher Wang's daughter nodded and wiped her tears away.

I couldn't stand it any longer, so I got into the car.

As the car drove off, I saw that the children who were waving away were all in tears. Teacher Wang was waving goodbye with a smile while wiping the corners of his eyes with his other hand.

I let out a breath and turned away, looking at the other side of the car, at the mountains on the other side.

Returning to Jianghai, I used one night to finish writing the special mission that Ma Shuji had assigned to me. The next day, as soon as I went to work, I handed over my printed report to Ma Shuji.
