Since the road to grandma's house is asphalt and in disrepair, the road condition is very poor.
Although Fan Wei's car is high-end, it can't speed up due to such potholes.
Fan Wei drove at a speed of thirty or forty yards on the sixty-kilometer road.
It was estimated that it would take at least an hour to get to his grandma's house.
Wu Shi, wearing brown sunglasses, sat in the passenger seat and looked out the car window, admiring the beautiful mountain scenery and feeling the fresh air blowing into the car.
She couldn't help but feel very comfortable.
Fan Wei's mother was a little anxious and kept asking when Fan Wei would arrive.
Obviously, not going home for several years made her miss her hometown very much.
In fact, Fan Wei also wanted to get to his grandmother's house earlier, but it was a pity that the road was too unsatisfactory.
In addition, there were six people in the car, so of course he had to drive carefully.
The Phaeton's chassis was low, and he didn't want to get bumped.
So the road that was originally straight ended up winding around many small potholes, and the speed slowed down even more.
Aunt Li on the side looked at the nearby mountains and forests full of autumn charm, and couldn't help but sigh, "I haven't seen you in a few years, but this place hasn't changed at all."
"No, hey, I really miss my mother and father.
This time I can finally go home to see you."
Fan Wei's mother said with some sadness in her eyes, "Two years have passed, and I don't know The village has changed a lot.”
Aunt Li nodded sadly, with red eyes and said, "I guess nothing has changed.
Life at home is very hard.
If it weren't for my help, the sons and daughters of my siblings would hardly be able to read.
I don't know what life is like."
When is the end?
You said the gap between people is so big.
Rich people can spend tens of thousands of dollars in one night, but poor people don’t know if they can make that much in a year. " "No, to be honest, if my family Fan Wei hadn't made a fortune this time, I wouldn't have dared to go back."
Fan Wei's mother's eyes were also red, and she choked up, "Listening to what my mother-in-law said behind her back, sometimes It’s really unpleasant.”
"Hey" Aunt Li sighed softly, seemingly not in a good mood.
"Aunt Li, Mom, you don't have to sigh.
Now that your life is better, look at what those chatty women in the village dare to say."
Fan Wei drove the car and persuaded, "Do you know why the people in the mountains are so poor?
Natural conditions are the main factor, but the feudal ideas in the village are also one of the reasons.
Aunt Li, you can go back and show off now, so that those guys who said bad things about you will learn a lot. " "Fan Wei, you can't say this.
If you show off your money, you won't be a nouveau riche.
Everyone in the village is related and has the same bloodline inside and outside.
I believe that after two years, things have calmed down."
Aunt Li retorted dissatisfiedly, "This village is feudal, but feudalism is a habit developed since ancient times.
What can be done about it?"
Fan Wei didn't say anything when he heard Aunt Li's words.
In fact, my grandma and grandpa have been very good to my family over the years.
Even when they were so poor, they often brought many souvenirs to my mother.
Although they were not worth much, they were a real help when the family was at its poorest.
Based on this alone, Fan Wei was particularly fond of his grandmother and grandfather.
On the contrary, those aunts and uncles in the family are really disgusting.
Before the parents were divorced, there was a constant stream of people coming to the house to ask for father's services.
Later, when the parents divorced, these relatives disappeared as if they had disappeared.
Later, the family was too poor, and his mother wanted to ask her relatives to borrow some money for him to study.
As a result, except for my aunt, no other relatives wanted to talk to her.

It was indeed a bit too snobbish.
"Sister, have you called your mother in the village?"
The aunt seemed to have thought of something at this time, and turned to Fan Wei's mother and asked, "Did your parents know that you are going back to the village?"
"No, just meet at home.
I'm afraid that if I call my parents, they will spend money to prepare meals.
This is not good."
Fan Wei's mother said with emotion, "They have worked hard all their lives, but I don't have the face to do so.
Let them worry about us.”
The aunt nodded in agreement, "I think so too.
We finally went back.
If they kill chickens and prepare dishes, wouldn't this increase their burden, so I don't dare to fight."
Wu Shi actually heard Fan Wei talk about some relatives and history of his family when he was in Jiangde City, so he naturally understood what Fan Wei's mother and aunt meant.
To a city dweller, a meal may not seem like much at all, but in a truly impoverished place, cooking a good meal is a relatively large expense.
Fan Wei's grandparents did not have pensions and relied entirely on charity from their children.
Her mother used to be so poor that it was considered good to take money from her parents, so how could she still have the money to fulfill her filial piety.
This time Fan Wei went to visit his two elders.
His mother had repeatedly told him not to forget to give his grandparents a big red envelope when he went to the village.
Fan Wei asked Wu Shi to hold the red envelope.
She had already bought the red envelope bag and stuffed the money into the red envelope.
Originally, she wanted to pack thirty or forty thousand yuan, but the red envelope bag was only so big and could barely hold twenty thousand yuan in it, so Fan Wei let her put the money in it.
Time passed bit by bit with everyone's memories and emotional chats.
Fan Wei finally drove the car to Yejia Town an hour later.
The village where Grandma Fan Wei lives is less than twenty minutes' drive from Yejia Town.
Arriving at Yejia Town is like finally arriving at the village.
After entering Yejia Town along the earth-black road, the dilapidated asphalt road finally improved and turned into a cement road.
Although the concrete road still looks dilapidated and old, at least the car driving on it is much more stable.
After passing around a large wooden door-type signboard with the three characters Yejia Town written on it, Fan Wei and his group finally entered the small town of Yejia Town.
Although it is said to be a small town, in fact, the buildings in Yejia Town are basically those built twenty or thirty years ago, and many of them are still mud houses made of mud and stone.
There were yellow dogs barking on the roadside, and there were even a few native chickens wandering around looking for food, completely ignoring the cars driving by.
It is simply a dirty and old scene in the countryside.
When Wu Shi saw this dilapidated town, he finally showed a trace of bitterness and said, "Now I finally understand what the gap is.
Although Ping'an County is not big, it at least feels like a small town, but this place is completely poor in rural areas.
A typical representative” "Of course, this is a mountainous area, and the poorest are mountainous areas.
Don't you know?
Ping'an County is the last poor county in the province.
The reason why Ping'an County still looks a bit urbanized is entirely because Ping'an County It made its fortune through tourism, so it is natural to pay attention to its image, and the building is of course more fashionable.
Yejia Town is the true representative of the county.
In Ping'an County, there are more than a dozen such towns.
Now you finally understand why I said that there is a huge gap between the rural areas of Ping'an County and the county."
Fan Wei said about Wu Shi I am not surprised at all.
If there is a county with the largest gap between rich and poor in the province, it must be Ping'an County.
Because here, the county's GDP accounts for almost half of the county's total.
The income of one county is equivalent to the income of more than a dozen towns.
This shows how shocking the poverty here has reached.
In fact, it’s not that the leaders of the county government don’t want to change, it’s indeed difficult to change.

Ping'an County simply wants nothing.
If it wants land, it has to blow up the mountains.
If it wants funds, it has a very poor geographical location.
If it wants to farm and grow crops, it should first flatten these rolling mountains.
It is no exaggeration to say that if Ping'an County wants to develop, it must develop tourism.
Therefore, the county's decision to develop tourism is indeed a good thing for the county.
Only when the county's fiscal revenue increases can it better invest in the construction of rural towns below.
With the current small town looking like a rural area, let alone attracting investment, even if an investment delegation comes, they will be scared back by the harsh environment here.
Narrow roads, dirty environments, and dilapidated and old planning.
To change these, we need financial support from the government.
To put it bluntly, we need money.
Without money, even if you rack your brains, you can't change everything here
