dream village

Xiachong Village borders Dongxi, but it is about five miles from Zhang Tao's home to Shuangfeng Coal Mine.The children in Chongli are used to walking, their feet are born to jump in the fields, mountains and forests, and they are not used to it when they are free, so they usually call to places that are far away, and they just walk away without thinking about hard work at all. , let alone any means of transportation.

Besides, Xiachong Village and Dong Xi are too close, in fact, they can't do it if they don't want to.The men had to go to Dongxi to look for coal mines and go down the mine, the girls wanted to go to Dongxi to get married, women and children often went to Dongxi to fetch charcoal.

It can be said that Dong Xi controls the economic lifeline of Xiachong Village with black hands, and even dominates the daily life of Xiachong Village.This is indeed true. If there is no underground well, where can a man make money?How can we live without coal?

Dongxi is simply a small Hong Kong in the minds of Xiachong villagers. It is just a free port. There is no need for smuggling, no need for this or that permit, and they often run to Dongxi with a basket.

The Dongxi people are also very rude in front of the Xiachong villagers, speaking rough and rough, and looking like a boss.If it is the first time they meet, when they are introduced by other people as people from Xiachong Village, their heads will be raised high immediately, and their nostrils will snort contemptuously, as if to say, "This is a place where birds don't shit. , there is not even a road, and it is all supported by my village.”[

Even if the people in Xiachong Village are desperate for face, they can only swallow their anger, accompany them with a smile, put on a friendly face, and show their hospitality.

Because you have offended Dongxi people and there is no good fruit to eat. You have to find Dongxi to find a way to survive. He is the master of his territory, and you have to listen to him.Even if he doesn't bother you, if he lets the dog out to bite you when you pass by his house, he will bite you so that you lose your temper.

In Xiachongchong, there are a lot of pigs, and every household raises pigs for the New Year; in Dongxi, there are a lot of dogs, and every household raises dogs to bite people.

Outside the village, Zhang Tao went to Dongxi the most when he was a child, either with his parents, or with his younger sister, to fetch charcoal in Dongxi.I usually go several times a week, sometimes several times a day.After he went to study outside, he walked relatively less.

Dongxi is a place that Xiachong villagers yearn for, but also a place that they hate. People who hate Dongxi hate Dongxi's coal even more. The coal has widened the gap between Xiachong Village and Dongxi.

Is Meisheng in Dongxi Dongxi's?Everyone says that resources belong to the country.Why are these resources often monopolized or occupied by a few people, and have nothing to do with the majority of people?Many Wumao will say, you are a typical pink eye disease, you can compete if you are capable!

This is really a stupid statement. Is there fair competition in this society?What resources are not controlled by certain people or in the hands of the privileged class?Why do ordinary people compete?They can keep their own house, keep their one-third of an acre of land from being forcibly demolished and expropriated.

These ordinary people belong to the country, why can't they enjoy the slightest benefit of resources?Why are the children of farmers destined to be farmers, and the offspring who eat the state's grain are destined to eat the state's grain?Why is the result of poverty and struggle often still poor, but wealth and power can often be passed on from generation to generation?

This society is fucking incomprehensible, but you have to accept and endure if you do not understand it.Endure to become a bastard in the sea, endure to become a sand pier under the eaves.

Zhang Tao let out a long sigh and continued walking forward.It is a winding path to Dongxi, sometimes it is a narrow field ridge, sometimes it is a steep slope washed out by rainwater, sometimes it is a mountain path with weeds and thorns squeezed in the middle, and sometimes it is a steep wall that has experienced generations of martyrs. Cutting with knives and axes, the dangerous road opened up with blood and sweat.

However, these martyrs are all heroes, and they have neither received the honor of setting up monuments, nor will they enjoy the real wisdom of martyrs.

There are many roads in the world, most of which are forged by generations of heroes, and those who are famous are only walking in the footsteps of these heroes.If you are lucky, if you occasionally jump to the front, you will achieve your own reputation for thousands of years, and the efforts of the many heroes in front often become his great achievements.

The winner is the king and the loser is Biao. History is written by the winners. These famous sayings are true.

Tonight the moon has penetrated into the thick clouds, only a few stars are twinkling in the sky, and the whole earth is plunged into chaos and blur.

However, the light emitted by more than a dozen miner's lamps and flashlights actually tore out a passage in the darkness, a piece of light and a piece of splendor.

Zhang Tao and the others move forward along this light, keep moving forward, towards Dong Xi, towards their hopes and dreams.

Mengfang's sweet singing continued to disperse and collide in the night sky, awakening many elves in the darkness, and attracted faint whispers and noises.

But now they rely on the lights to light up their courage, so they don't care about them and are afraid of them.If a person is driving at night, these elves will definitely step on their heels and scare them away,

Zhang Tao and Meizi want to talk about something, so they lead Lili and Meizi to stay behind on purpose.He originally wanted to give Lili to other people to take care of, but she refused to let go of his hand, no matter how hard he coaxed her, he just shook his head and refused. [

With the light of Lili, a small electric light bulb, although the road ahead is brighter, the conversation between Zhang Tao and Meizi has lost a lot of emotion and fun, and they have to become serious and business-like. Like the topic, they seriously talked about topics related to Shuangfeng Coal Mine.

Due to the narrow road, Zhang Tao and Meizi basically walked back and forth, and rarely had the opportunity to walk side by side, which made it very inconvenient for them to talk and often had to shout loudly.

However, fortunately, you are surrounded by your own people, so you don't have to worry about leaking secrets.

When encountering a bad road, they had to stop talking and concentrate on watching the road. Occasionally, Zhang Tao would run to the front to grab a plum.

During the whole trip, Lili didn't say a word, she held Tengtao's hand and kept her body tightly together, as if she was afraid that he would leave her alone, and leave her in the dark night where there was no place in front of the village.

This brought great inconvenience to Zhang Tao's journey. He had to let her go on the good road, while he stepped forward with deep feet and shallow feet.On some really narrow roads, he had to carefully hold her little hand and drive forward step by step.

Although Zhang Tao only talked with Meizi intermittently, he still got a lot of information about Shuangfeng from it.
