Chapter 676 Extra Good Girl Village
Since leaving Gude Village, this is the first time Shen Dinghai has returned to this beautiful small village to visit his old friends.
Green mountains and clear waters are more beautiful than in memory.
There is no change in the scenery, the key to the change is the atmosphere.
Nowadays, Gude Village is no longer surrounded by heavy fog, and it is no longer called Gude Village.
Shanniao Village, this is its current name, named after the Goddess of Good that the locals believe in.
Shen Dinghai is not the only outsider to visit here.
Shannv Village is crowded with people, and tour groups holding different signs can be seen everywhere.
The idea of vigorously developing the tourism industry was developed only after listening to Shen Dinghai's idea and with the strong support of local departments.
In addition, there is also assistance from all over the world to help Shanniao Village be reborn from the ruins swallowed by the flames.
Shen Dinghai found Dongsheng's house according to the route he remembered, and knocked on the door gently, and the door was opened with a "creak".
It was still a familiar large courtyard, but the tree that originally had enough branches to cover most of the yard was severely damaged. Only a small piece was left after the charred branches were pruned off. Fortunately, the thick trunk was still there, and it would not be a problem to grow back into what it was before as long as it was given enough time.
The blind woman stood at the door and heard Shen Dinghai's voice. She smiled slightly and signaled him to go in.
Shen Dinghai paused for a moment and followed suit.
The furnishings in the house have changed a lot.
In fact, not only Dongsheng's family is like this, but many households in the village have built new houses with the help of the official.
There are very few people who can still retain such completeness after a fire in Dongsheng's family.
Shen Dinghai couldn't help but sigh when he looked at it, was it because the black cat's spirit in the sky was protecting this home.
The furnishings in the house are simple but warm, and there are several colorful paintings hanging on the walls. They should be painted in Dongsheng's leisure time. Most of the paintings are the scenery of the village and the life scenes of the villagers. Just looking at them makes people full of love for life and longing for the future.
Shen Dinghai looked around and felt a lot of emotion in his heart. He thought that Dongsheng, who made these paintings, should be living a good life with a more positive attitude than him, so that he could make such a painting.
Everything here is very different from the Good Village he remembers.
very nice.
The former Good Village was filled with the haze of feudal superstition. Women were regarded as inferior beings, their destiny was bound to the control of men, and their lives were full of suffering and pain.
The village at that time was lifeless, as if it was imprisoned by an invisible shackle. Not only women, but even men and those in power could not see hope, only numbness.
However, Shanniao Village has been completely renewed today.
The roads in the village are wide and neat, with wild flowers and carefully constructed green trees on both sides. The breeze blows, and the fragrance of flowers and plants comes to you, which makes you feel refreshed.
Tourists shuttled through the alleys in the village, stopping to watch, or taking photos as souvenirs, with relaxed and pleasant smiles on their faces.
The women in the village dressed very differently from before. They no longer only pursued cloth clothes that were barely covered, nor only worn clothes that were convenient for work.
Clothes of all colors and styles will appear on them.
Some of them warmly entertain tourists in their homestays, while others display their works in the village’s handicraft shops. The exquisite embroidery, weaving and ceramic works all show their ingenuity.
The women in the village have completely changed. Their eyes are full of confidence and firmness. They use their hands to create a beautiful life and become the real masters of the village.
Shen Dinghai stood in the yard, and the long-awaited person finally slowly appeared in his sight.
Dongsheng walked over with a cat in his arms, the smile on his face was warm and peaceful.
Black cat!
Shen Dinghai immediately noticed this and a surprise smile appeared on his face. However, before he could speak, Dongsheng shook his head at him.
"Not it."
The joy disappeared in an instant, and Shen Dinghai closed his eyebrows and eyes in disappointment, "I thought it was Mr. Black Cat who was back..."
"It's completely gone and will not come back."
Dongsheng's expression was calm, as if he was explaining to Shen Dinghai, and as if he was expressing another meaning to him.
Shen Dinghai stood there in a daze for a long time before nodding, "It's like this... I leave just leave..." After slowing down, he followed Dongsheng out of the yard and came to the central square of the village.
In the square, a group of children were playing happily, their laughter was crisp and pleasant, echoing in the air like silver bells.
In a corner of the square, several old men were playing chess leisurely. They had a satisfied expression on their faces and should enjoy this peaceful and beautiful time very much.
A warm current surged in Shen Dinghai's heart. He looked at Dongsheng, his eyes full of relief and admiration.
"You did a great job."
Dongsheng smiled without saying a word. She pointed to a small building next to the square. It was the village’s cultural activity center, which was equipped with a library, exhibition hall and training room. It regularly held various cultural activities and skills training, providing villagers with rich spiritual food and opportunities to improve themselves.
Shen Dinghai walked into the cultural activity center and saw many books and magazines placed inside. The villagers read and learn freely here, sharing their knowledge and experiences with each other.
The exhibition hall shows the historical changes and cultural heritage of the village.
Shen Dinghai didn't expect that there would be this one.
Dong Sheng said quietly, "Those are all bloody things and should not be covered with something."
Shen Dinghai sighed, "Yes."
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
There are imitations of cloth strips full of blood, displays in the Houshan cave, and a renovated statue of the Goddess of Good Goddess.
Every exhibit in the exhibition hall tells the past, present and future of Shanniao Village.
Shen Dinghai was filled with emotion. He walked out of the cultural activity center and couldn't help but say, "Is Yunxiang okay? There is also Shui Gu, I didn't see her in the village."
Dongsheng nodded and signaled Shen Dinghai to follow him to a small forest behind the village.
Dongsheng stopped in front of a big tree and gently stroked the trunk. Shen Dinghai looked along her gaze and saw a line of small words engraved on the trunk:
"I hope all the women in Shanniao Village can live a happy life."
Shen Dinghai was shocked. This line of words seemed to have some magic, which reminded him more deeply of every bit of what he had in Gude Village back then.
"This is carved by me, Yunxiang and Shuigu."
He turned to look at Dongsheng, who smiled slightly, pointed to the words on the trunk, and pointed to his heart.
How could Shen Dinghai not understand? This is Dongsheng’s wish and the wish of all the women in Shannv Village.
The reason why Shannv Village has changed today is because the women here are united and bravely pursue their happiness and dignity. They use their efforts and courage to break the shackles that once imprisoned them and create a new home full of vitality and hope.
"Yuxiang lives a good life, just as good as before she was abducted to Good Village. We contact each other from time to time."
"Where is the Shui Gu?"
"Shui Gu left the village. She said she wanted to go to the outside world to take a look. I think it's very good. Everyone in the village thinks it's very good, and no one stops her."
Shen Dinghai was deeply moved, "It's indeed a great thing." He remembered something when he said this.
"My nephew should have come with me, but he refused me."
Dongsheng tilted his head and was puzzled. Shen Dinghai explained in a warm voice, "He said that he is still too young now and does not understand why Shanniao Village was the Gude Village in the past."
"He doesn't understand those men, nor do he understand those oppressions."
Shen Dinghai smiled slightly, "He said that when he grows up, he understands, he will come here alone to visit him, bring the blood list and return it."
"During this time, he will always use the blood list to alert himself."
"At Zhichen's strong request, my father changed the growth foundation used to cultivate Zhichen into the Women and Children Protection Foundation. Zhichen said that he would make the foundation develop better and better, and would also let more men understand the same truth as him."
"Women enjoy the same rights and interests as men in the world."
Dongsheng stood quietly under the tree, feeling the breeze blowing, and she smiled.
"Thank you and your nephew, and thank her."
It goes without saying who she is. Shen Dinghai's sigh blew towards the high blue sky with the breeze.
He knew that the future of Shannv Village would definitely get better and better, because Dongsheng, other women in the village, and all the brave women were guarding it.
He just hoped that she could know too.
This world is getting better and better, and he wants her to know everything that is happening in this world.
