Chapter 464 Aunt Li's Request
In this way, more and more people will know about Luyuan, and the number of customers who cooperate with Tenglong will also increase day by day. Maybe it won't take long, even if the land in the entire village is contracted, it will not be able to meet the needs of so many customers. .
"Zhang Bing, don't praise me. I am easy to be proud. If you praise me, I will definitely screw things up next time."
Xiao Yi checked the construction of the stage. Building such a large stage required a lot of materials, and most of the equipment was borrowed by Zhang Bing from the local cultural propaganda department.
Because of Xiao Yi's relationship in the middle, Xiao Yi knew Wu Lili. Wu Lili was the magistrate of Beitang County. With Wu Lili's help to open the back door, it was of course much easier to do things.
He not only approved Zhang Bing to borrow equipment, but also helped Zhang Bing come to build the stage. Xiao Yi told Wu Lili beforehand that the big star Sophie would hold a concert in the village.
This is a good thing for rural construction. Wu Lili has always been concerned about the major issues of rural construction. It is not easy for Xiao Yi to do this. This is tantamount to supporting his work in disguise. Wu Lili has no reason not to help Xiao Yi.
There is a large stage with a length of 20 meters and a width of 12 meters, various audio equipment, special effects curtains for the stage, and electronic display screens. Zhang Bing has arranged everything that needs to be arranged properly.
A group of villagers in the village stood curiously outside the concert site. This is the first time they have seen such a scene after living so long. They discussed with each other from time to time, their eyes full of envy.
"Xiao Yi...Xiao Yi, come here."
Aunt Li on the side called Xiao Yi, knowing that Xiao Yi is different now, so she tried to pay attention when she spoke.
"Aunt Li, please speak louder. This is not a thief. Is there anything I can do for you?"
Aunt Li is in her fifties, and she wears a scarf on her head. Due to her frequent work in the village, her skin is tanned and she looks older.
With a simple and honest smile on her face, Aunt Li took out a piece of cloth from her pocket, and slowly unfolded it. There were some small change inside, ranging from ten to twenty, and the largest one was fifty, she said with a smile.
"Xiao Yi, Aunt Li knows that you are promising now, but I don't know if you still recognize me as Aunt Li.
"Aunt Li, look at what you said. No matter where I go, I will call you Aunt Li. I can't call you Grandma Li. You are more than 20 years younger than my grandpa. My grandpa must not be beaten to death with a stick." I."
Xiao Yi said, when Aunt Li heard what Xiao Yi said, she felt that Xiao Yi was still the same Xiao Yi as before, not changing at all.
Once some people have money, their whole personality changes, they become ignorant of their relatives, and their relatives and friends become like strangers, but Xiao Yi is different.
"Aunt Li has something to ask of you."
"Since I've already called you Aunt Li, don't be so polite, just ask if you have anything to say."
It's a bit embarrassing to say this, but for someone of Aunt Li's age, that's all she can do right now.
She roughly counted the money in her hand, and it was about three hundred. She had never been to a concert, and Aunt Li didn't know how much a concert ticket cost.
"Xiao Yi, I know you know this big star, can you please help me buy a concert ticket?"
Xiao Yi didn't expect that at such an advanced age, Aunt Li would also want to watch the concert. She had no other intentions and asked with a half-smile.
"Aunt Li, are you still chasing stars at your age?"
"Alas...you young people's things, I am so old, I definitely don't understand. To be honest, I bought the concert tickets for my granddaughter. She is 13 years old this year, and her parents are working outside. The child She has never seen much of the world at this age, and she likes to hear this little girl sing, so I want to buy a ticket and let the children listen to it too."
Aunt Li sighed, but when she mentioned her granddaughter, Aunt Li had a smile on her face. No matter where they go, the hearts of parents all over the world are the same, they are all for their children.
The three hundred yuan is not enough for a rich person to lose even a meal, but for a family like Aunt Li, this is the living expenses of the family for a month. a concert.
Aunt Li was smiling, but Xiao Yi was very sad. It was really not easy for people living in the village. So many left-behind children were waiting for their parents to return. Maybe it was a holiday, maybe it was a year. Come back once.
The only companions at home are grandparents. Without the companionship of their parents, there is a vacancy in the hearts of these children. There are nearly 30 left-behind children in the village, and the number is still rising.
"I promise you about Aunt Li, but you don't need the money. You should go and see the child when he is so old. I know that big star, and I will reserve places for you all when the time comes."
"I can't help it, Xiaoyi, we can't do this. Besides, it makes you a bit difficult to be a man. I'm so old, so I won't go with you. You can help me bring the child in."
"Aunt Li, don't worry, this concert is basically a charity performance. Except for the real fans, the elderly and children in the village can come and watch for free."
Xiao Yi hasn't informed Sophie about this matter yet, Xiao Yi has made his own decisions here, he doesn't want such a concert to chill the hearts of the villagers.
Aunt Li's eyes were filled with tears. She was old and didn't care about anything, but the child's life had just begun, and the incompetence of being an elder could not allow the child to live a stable life.
Even the few hundred dollars was saved by Aunt Li. The children don't have any complaints on weekdays, but it can be seen that they are still full of envy for the life of the rich.
Xiao Yi will inform Sophie about this matter later, and Sophie is reasonable and will definitely agree, but through what Aunt Li said, Xiao Yi thought of another thing.
Nowadays, many young people go out to work, leaving children and the elderly at home, because they can make money outside, and there is no source of income at home. As a result, many children cannot see their parents for a long time.
"Aunt Li, I have something to say, and I don't know whether to say it or not."
"Xiaoyi, you've said it all. Call me Aunt Li. If you have anything to say, just say it. Aunt Li just listens."
"What I want to say is that it's time for Aunt Li's son to come back from outside. As the saying goes, wherever he goes, his own home is good, and children also need the company of their parents."
Xiao Yi said that he had had enough of this kind of experience. He didn't know who his parents were at first, but only when he grew up did he realize that his parents were already gone.
