The development of the motherland has entered a new era, and a prefecture-level city on the south bank of the Yangtze River in the land of southern Guangdong has ushered in a heavyweight.

More than 40 years ago, the prefecture-level city was just a commune, and in the first year of the resumption of the college entrance examination, the commune gave birth to three university students at the same time, one of whom was a woman. This was a good story at the time.

The three college students are called Qin Mi, Wen Yuan, and Xin Li. After graduating from a famous Chinese college institution, she crossed the ocean to start a business in a foreign country, and after years of hard work, she became the chairman of a high-tech company and a world-famous entrepreneur, and has never returned to her hometown. Wen Yuan and Xin Li were both assigned to the places where the motherland needed them most, devoted themselves to the construction of the country, won many honorary titles awarded by the state, and became famous writers and historians in the country respectively.

Forty years have passed, and Qin Mi, Wen Yuan, and Xin Li are suddenly going back to their hometowns. It is said that when the three of them went their separate ways after graduating from college, they had agreed that they would return to their hometown together after retirement.

And the first to return to her hometown was Qin Mi, who was far away.

At this moment, Qin Mi has returned to the provincial capital and is packing her luggage to return to her hometown in a big hotel in the provincial capital. The closer the hometown, the more the nostalgia. Qinmi's mind went back to forty years ago......

In the 60s of the last century, she and her twin sister were born in a small mountain village in the corner of Lingnan and thousands of mountains. In the hot summer, they got up before dawn, carried a dung basket and drove barefoot for several miles to cut grass and check firewood, and at noon they cut more than 100 catties of firewood and grass to pick them up; in the afternoon, they set off again under the scorching sun, and were bitten by mosquitoes until it was dark before they could return home. In the cold winter, I jumped into the pond in front of my house to touch the fish on a cold rainy day, and the water that was about to freeze was like 10,000 needles piercing my body.

Studying hard is probably the only chance for children in mountainous areas to get ahead, and the hard rural life and the desire to get ahead deduce tenacious vitality. At that time, the girls in the small mountain village did not have names, usually named "Qin Girl" and "Qin Mei" and other pronouns, the name of Qin Mi, was given by herself, it was already very trendy at that time, the first year of the resumption of the college entrance examination, she was admitted to the country's famous universities with the first place in the province. And the twin sister is named Sun Shan.

At that time, China's reform and opening up had not yet officially started, and my father, who had lived in the mountains for a long time, had a very backward concept, only knew how to cultivate one acre and three points of land, and his family was poor and in debt. After she was admitted to university, her parents, who had never quarreled with her, began to quarrel occasionally because of tuition fees and expenses. Her mother couldn't come up with a single yuan, so she had to go to neighbors and relatives to borrow money. She often sat in someone's house for hours, never able to speak, until neighbors and relatives were about to go to bed and asked her if there was anything wrong, and she said about the loan.

Despite this, her family and relatives sold the only pigs and cattle they had, and together they sent her to college.

After graduating from university, she was ready to go abroad with her excellent foreign language and high spirits.

However, when she told her family about the idea, she was unexpectedly unanimously opposed by her family. The family was afraid that she would marry far away and that she would be wronged. She was young and vigorous, and she set off with a backpack alone, and when she went out, there was no one to see her off, and her mother and grandmother hid in the house and wept.

In foreign countries, she worked hard all the way and changed the image of Chinese women with her own strength, beautiful, elegant, strong, and wise, just like some young women in Chinese movies, respecting etiquette, and being good at planning and fighting.

……

It wasn't until Wen Yuan and Xin Li called her on WeChat that Qin Mi came back to her senses.

Wen Yuan and Xin Li are not only Qinmi's fellow villagers, but also classmates, and they are also the three heavyweights who came out of that prefecture-level city that year. Wen Yuan and Xin Li told Qin Mi that because there are other things temporarily, they need to be delayed for a few days, you go back first, and we will arrive in the next few days.

Qin Mi took the high-speed train to the west alone, went home first, and became the first heavyweight ushered in by the local area.

The on-screen on the train says that it only takes an hour and a half to get from the provincial capital to home. Qin Mi couldn't believe that forty years ago, her hometown, which was surrounded by thousands of mountains, was out of reach of the outside world. When she was studying, she could only take a very old car from her hometown to the provincial capital, and the road and river ferries were on the way, starting from dawn, bumpy all day, and arriving at the provincial capital after dark. And now, it only takes an hour and a half?

It's true. The high-speed train traveled at a speed of 300 kilometers per hour, passing through many tunnels and bridges, all the way through mountains and rivers, and after an hour and a half, Qin Mi returned to the high-speed rail station in her hometown. Qinmi, who came out of the station, couldn't recognize the appearance of her hometown, and she was at a loss for a while.

After 40 years away from her hometown, many things have changed, and the original barren hometown has developed into a prefecture-level city with high-rise buildings and crowds of flowers. There are her relatives and friends, as well as many classmates and playmates when she was a child, and the good memories of the past are frozen in her brain and can never be erased. However, she had been away for too long, and now she suddenly stood on the land of her hometown, feeling both familiar and strange, and her hometown had become a place that could neither be forgotten nor returned.

The foreign affairs department of the prefecture-level city has already arranged her itinerary. A small car stopped beside her, and her parents with gray temples opened the door, and they were overjoyed and cried with joy. Qin Mi looked at her parents' familiar and obvious vicissitudes of life, choked up for a while, and couldn't hold back her feelings anymore, stepped forward to hug her parents, and cried like a child. Her parents hugged her tightly, and her parents and elderly children cried together.

Although she left her parents, her hometown, and her motherland, she was busy with fast-paced work and development, and she never came back for 40 years, but there was no parent who didn't miss her children, and no hometown didn't miss her relatives. Motherland, with broad enthusiasm to bring her back.

Qin Mi burst into tears like a woman suddenly looking for her family in a world away: "I'm back, I'm back!"

In the days that followed, Kotomi felt that life in her hometown was completely different from that of forty years ago.

Gone are the problems that have plagued the people of the motherland for thousands of years, such as hunger, lack of food and clothing, and hardship.

In the motherland and hometown, people's clothing, food, housing, and transportation have undergone fundamental changes compared with 40 years ago. Clothes are no longer the original gray and black homespun cloth, but instead are novel, unique, and fashionable clothing; food, is no longer the original gruel and wild vegetables, but replaced by all kinds of Chinese, Western, and seafood feasts with full color and flavor; A livable town with greenery and flowers, the road is no longer the rugged mountain roads and arduous crawling of the past, but has been replaced by tens of thousands of private cars that are almost universal, and the speed and efficiency are not what they used to be. People's faces are no longer the sad faces they used to be, but instead they are filled with smiles of joy and happiness, polite daily life and an atmosphere of advocating science. In their spare time, people travel with friends, families, or travel with friends to get in touch with nature. Whether it is a bustling and noisy city or a fresh and natural countryside, every day witnesses people's quality of life. People are smart, neatly dressed, with peach blossoms on their faces, noble and elegant.

From her own experience, from the news media and people's daily conversations, Qin Mi felt the strength of the motherland. The output of the motherland's major agricultural products has leapt to the forefront of the world, and the world's most complete modern industrial system has been established. The motherland has made remarkable achievements in infrastructure construction, with unimpeded information flow, a network of highways, dense railways, high dams, west-to-east gas transmission, south-to-north water diversion, high-speed railways, giant ships sailing, airplanes soaring, and natural moats changing thoroughfares. At present, the motherland is the world's second largest economy, the largest manufacturing country, the first major country in trade in goods, the second largest country in commodity consumption, and the second largest country in the inflow of foreign capital; the motherland's foreign exchange reserves have ranked first in the world for many years; the Chinese people have taken decisive steps in the journey of becoming rich and strong, and are still moving forward.

In particular, social security, the safe sky net project in the streets and alleys has made the big cities and small streets and the market wells and wells become a safe road for 24 hours. The creepy events that Qin Mi felt in some foreign land were almost impossible to happen in the streets of her home country.

Looking back on the past, Qin Mi never expected that the current motherland would become such a prosperous scene. I thought that the idea of a fool's dream has been realized today, and in just 70 years since the founding of New China, it has reached the height of the world's admiration, which is a breakthrough for history and a miracle for the country.

Reform and opening up has become the most striking feature and the most magnificent atmosphere of contemporary China.

The dream of rejuvenation of China has become the common pursuit of hundreds of millions of Chinese descendants.

After experiencing the pinnacle of life and standing on the land of her hometown, Qin Mi was full of emotion. Forty years have passed, time has slipped away, everything has changed, my parents have become old, my hometown has changed from a traditional backward mountainous area to a modern fashion city, from a closed and backward to an open and high-end, from poor and thin to rich and well-off, only the love of my parents and motherland for me has not changed.

The hometown in her memory really can't go back, and there is no need to go back.

In the past few decades, as a world-famous entrepreneur, she has indeed accumulated huge wealth and gold everywhere, but as a yellow-skinned and black-eyed Chinese woman, she feels something more precious than wealth and gold, that is, the dream of a great country from standing up to becoming rich and then becoming strong by hundreds of millions of people.

It happens that in the past thirty or forty years since she left, the motherland has gone through the course that Western countries have gone through for hundreds of years. What kind of journey should it be? What kind of epic should it be? Qinmi was very repentant and did not stay in her own country to realize the condensed hundreds of years. She was ashamed that she was too strong, that she had been adrift in a foreign country for decades and had not come back.

With the help of the staff of the motherland, she went to the local public security organ to apply for an identity card that she had not heard or seen when she left. In this ordinary and real way, Qin Mi completed the oath of "I return" to the motherland and hometown.

After completing this, Qinmi couldn't suppress the excitement in her heart. Looking back on most of her life, what is most painful for Qin Mi is not that she could not have experienced the reform and opening up of the motherland and the well-off process of the motherland, but that she could have experienced it but missed the experience.

Qinmi is unwilling to miss the motherland's reform and opening up and well-off process. Although the days and months are long in foreign countries, it does not mean that the years of development of the motherland are forgotten and missed.

It seems to be a call for historical feelings, but also seems to be a deep curiosity, and it seems to be a kind of return to make up for the lapse of time. When she was thinking about it, she took advantage of her free time to read through many traditional classics that she had read when she was a child, and learned from them. Among them, the words in the "Analects": The three armies can win the commandery, but the horseman cannot win the ambition. She masked in thought......

Forty years ago, Qinmi's inseparable twin sister was called Qinyin. The reason why the sound of the piano is called the sound of the piano is the name she gave herself in the process of studying, which means "the piano is in the world, and the sound is all over the world". They go to school together, live together, and even sleep together. The difference is that later Qinmi was admitted to university and went abroad, while Qinyin stayed in her hometown to continue farming. Since Qinmi left her homeland, she has never seen Qinyin because of the backward communication at that time. In the same era, at the same age, what is the current situation of the qin sound? What will the qin sound develop into? That is a living Chinese version of life!

Chasing dreams, you can be late, but you can't be absent. All Qin Mi can think of is: look at the forty years of her twin sister Qin Yin, what kind of forty years it is, so as to witness this largest well-off process in human history, the world's most glorious and glorious dream of national rejuvenation......

This "piano in the world, the sound is all over the world", heard that his twin sister had returned after forty years, and hurried to pick up the car.

Qin Mi's hometown and mountain village at that time, as well as the Chinese version of the true story of the pianist and Qin Yin, were also completely presented in front of people with the arrival of Qin Yin......
