  Miao embroidery allows travelers to live a peaceful life at the door of their homes——

  Huawu Village is located deep in the mountains and has inconvenient transportation. It was once a national-level deep poverty village.

Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, under the promotion of the state's targeted poverty alleviation policy, Huawu Village has opened up the traffic artery, and has become a beautiful rural pilot project from a deep poverty-stricken village at the national level.

  The great changes in Huawu Village are inseparable from the industrialization of Miao embroidery.

As a minority village, Huawu Village has a very high proportion of the Miao population, and every household is good at making Miao embroidery.

In October 2019, Huawu Village introduced a batik embroidery poverty alleviation workshop to allow the villagers to display their embroidery skills.

  "Nowadays, a hand-embroidered crooked carded Miao clothing can sell for tens of thousands of yuan. Miao embroidery is a traditional culture, and Miao women have always been proud of it. I am very proud that everyone can increase their income through it." Yang Wenli introduced.

  Wage income plus field harvests can enable many villagers to lead a good life.

  One stitch and one thread can make a happy life, and the prosperity of Miao embroidery outlines the picture of the villagers of Huawu Village who are hardworking and getting rich.

  On February 3, at Zhao Yujian, a Miao villager, Xi Jinping carefully inspected the living and living environment, and made local traditional festival food Huangba with Zhao Yuxue's family, and chatted about home-cooking.

  Zhao Yuxue told the General Secretary that he used to live in Mawozhai, which had no water, electricity, or access, but now he lives in a two-story building with water and electricity connected to his home.

Xi Jinping was very happy to hear this.

He pointed out that employment is a basic measure to consolidate the results of poverty alleviation.

It is necessary to actively develop rural industries to facilitate the people's employment at home, so that the people can have an income, but also take care of their families, and train their children well.

  Huawu Village is located at the junction of the north and south sources of the Wujiang River. It is the place where the Liuchong River and the Sancha River "shook hands". The landscape is beautiful and the scenery is beautiful.

After the cement road is repaired, the special products such as Miao embroidery and Huangba of Huawu Village will go out, and the beautiful scenery of Huawu Village can attract tourists to come in.

  "In the past two months, the income from farmhouses and selling Huangba has been more than 10,000 yuan." Zhao Yuxue told reporters that in the past, when working outside, the most reluctant to give up was the children. Now the income is good and the family can still be reunited.

"Our life is just as the general secretary expects, becoming more and more happy and sweet." Zhao Yuxue said with a smile on his face.

  Fingertip skills have become "fingertip economy", and green water and green mountains have turned into "golden mountains and silver mountains".

Today, Huawu Village is striding forward on the well-off Kangzhuang Avenue with its unique natural environment and unique ethnic culture.
