On the Way to Hope 在希望的田野上 Episode 18

Everyone sent Liu Manqing to the town hospital and waited anxiously for the results outside the operating room. In the end, unfortunate news came that Liu Manqing had a history of high blood pressure and he was overworked and caused cerebral hemorrhage. The delay was too long, and despite the doctors’ efforts to rescue Liu Manqing, Liu Manqing’s life was not saved. Everyone was deeply saddened. Li Shitao persuaded everyone not to be too sad. For Liu Manqing's unfinished task, everyone should complete it for him, so as to comfort his spirit in the sky.

Everyone raised the national flag solemnly together. Before this work was done by Liu Manqing, everyone just wanted to mourn Liu Manqing through this action. The technician came to tell everyone that the water source was discovered, but Zhang Nan was a little worried because the land with the water source belonged to Pei Jingchun’s family. Li Han said that this work was done by him, but he still ignored Pei Jingchun’s hatred. He and Zhang Zhihua bought something to persuade Pei Jingchun, but he didn't buy in, unless Zhang Nan's mother was asked to pay for his mother-in-law, otherwise, he said nothing would allow him to leave the land.

Zhang Nan came to see her aunt and said that the injured person was no longer in danger, and that he had arranged the family affairs so that her aunt could wait for the verdict with peace of mind. The village team was suspended collectively. Secretary Wang said that Li Shitao could continue to work, but Li Shitao said that he would stay with the village team and return to Baiguoshu Village. Li Shitao took the initiative to cook and drink together. He was abnormal. The action made everyone feel the seriousness of the situation. Liu Chengxin reminded Niu Jiu Nao that we must do a good job in fire prevention and take the case of Baiguoshu Village as a warning. At this time, the relocation of Heping Village has experienced ups and downs. Several villagers moved back again, and the reason is also very different. Simply, it is too boring to stay in the new house, and you can still farm when you return home. Liu Chengxin and others are also quite helpless about this.

The village team chatted together and talked to themselves. Zhang Nan proposed to sing a song to Liu Manqing, and asked Bian Xiaoyue to bring the guitar over and sing with her. The lyrics represent everyone's heartfelt voices, and their thoughts fly farther and farther along with the singing. If the water source problem is not solved for a day, the problem of poverty alleviation in Baiguoshu Village will be difficult to continue. Li Shitao asked everyone to help him with his work, because he was not suspended. He arranged for Zhang Nan and Bian Xiaoyue to investigate the school-age children in Baiguoshu Village. Pei Jingchun’s work was done by He came to do it, but there was still no result, Pei Jingchun still let Zhang Nan's mother resist. Zhang Nan decided that he still wanted to face and solve this problem by himself. He proposed to let Pei Jingchun give up the land, even if he killed himself. Although Pei Jingchun suffered a shoulder, Zhang Nan felt that things still had a chance to turn, because he felt Pei Jingchun didn't use too much strength, otherwise, it would be as simple as a slight injury. Pei Jingchun has been holding a breath for so many years. If he let him out today, he will feel better.

Lin Qingqing was busy with the cherry tree in the greenhouse. Xu Changqing and Xu's wife were very grateful. They said that if their superiors had to punish them, they would come forward to help them clarify and testify. The development of the manganese mine in Jialiang Mountain is relatively smooth. What is scratching my head is that several households have moved back. Liu Chengxin is busy researching solutions. Several villagers sneaked to the vicinity of the manganese mine to see what they were up to.

Zhang Nan and Bian Xiaoyue learned that Xiaoming’s father was trying to prevent Xiaoming’s sister from going to school, so they went to the house to do Xiaoming’s father’s work, but he refused to say anything, Zhang Nan and Bian Xiaoyue had no choice but to leave. Xiao Ming persuaded her sister to cherish the last chance, otherwise she would never be able to go to school. Sister Xiao Ming was finally told by her younger brother. She and Xiao Ming ran out of the house together to catch up with Zhang Nan and Bian Xiaoyue. They were also chasing their dreams.
