Towards the end of October, the old Zhang family's new house was finally completed, and passers-by could see this beautiful house from the corner of Zhangba Highway into Zhangwan.

The three-storey building, the first floor covers an area of nearly 1,000 square meters, surrounded by walls, relying on maple forests on both sides, facing Baihu Bay, nearly two acres of yard neatly planted holly and osmanthus trees, dozens of flower pots are placed around the corners.

In addition to vacating more than a dozen parking spaces for more than a dozen cars side by side, the yard is full of small flower beds of different sizes but unusually neat, gray-white floor tiles are paved all over the yard, and in the middle is a layer of asphalt paved driveway, which is flat and seamless.

The courtyard gate of Lao Zhang's house, which is nearly 5 meters wide, does not use the type of two-door pull, but uses rollers embedded in the cement to control the zhì remotely, which is also a rare thing.

The blue and white stone walls are uneven, looking simple and heavy, but the upper part of the modern room type is carved into the shape of a castle, and the balcony that stretches out is replaced with a big red Chinese cornice, which is really a strange combination, but on the whole, even Zhang Chen has to admit that the things that are willing to spend money are high-grade.

This house has earned enough eyeballs from the beginning of digging the foundation, and now when it is really built, it has directly become the most iconic thing in Zhangwan except for Baihu Bay.

The old Zhang family is now not to say that it is in Baihu Bay, that is, in Batou Township, and even Bai Chongna is also a well-known number one person, to say that the people who knew him before were only in Batou Township, but since the implementation of the Baihe Village "Village-to-Village" poverty alleviation and prosperity plan, Mo said Batou Township, but the whole county knows the number one person of Baihe Zhangwan Zhang Wenlin.

Since ancient times, paving bridges and building roads is the act of doing good and accumulating virtues, Zhang Wenlin now said that he did not pave bridges, but the road has been repaired more than one, but is about to build a famous Baihe Village through the road network of Baihe Village.

The highway network connecting the whole village, except in the urban area, I am afraid that there is no village in Yi'an City that has such a big deal, once the road network is officially completed, I am afraid that Baihe Village is definitely the only model village in the city.

Among them, Zhang Wenlin, the village party secretary who independently funded and planned and implemented the "Village-to-Village" plan, naturally became a well-known figure in the county.

However, after the new house was completed and renovated, the smell inside was difficult to dissipate for a while, and the old Zhang family was naturally not in a hurry to move in.

Now the road network in Baihe Village is almost repaired, and not only that, but the entire Baihe Village, from the beginning of entering the village, the whole village has become completely different from the past, and there is no longer a little bit of exposed crops in the fields, but it has become a row and row of neat plastic greenhouses.

After entering Zhangwan, the situation has changed again, there are no crops to be seen here, and there is little land on the Zhangwan team, and now after the implementation of the "Village-to-Village" poverty alleviation plan, all the land in Zhangwan will be used to plant trees and raise seedlings.

All over the mountains and fields are seen stubble saplings, holly, camphor, osmanthus trees, landscape pine, ginkgo, etc., the highest seedlings are only two meters high, all of which are tree species that are brought back from contact with the Agricultural Bureau.

The fields on both sides of the road have also been dug out of the irrigation ditches, and now around Baihu Bay, except for the remaining vegetable gardens, all you can see are neat saplings.

Those who dare to plan like this are either bold and sure or digging a pit for themselves, and once something goes wrong at that time, the pit will be buried for themselves.

Entering junior high school, Zhang Chen didn't have the free time to pay attention to the "bad things" that Lao Tzu thought his wife thought was done at home all day long, and he didn't dare to say it, if Liu Aiping knew that Baihe Village's "Village-to-Village" poverty alleviation plan was originally pondered by himself and calculated with Lao Tzu Zhang Wenlin, I am afraid he would not be able to run a good beating.

The living conditions in the township are not good, Zhang Chen's life is an exception, and even the two bastards Zhang Hailin and Hu Qiang live a very nourishing life.

In 96, the big canteen in the township is still the old bungalow, a total of 5 windows, every time the bell rings after class, that is, the bowls and spoons are staggered, the heroes are like forests, and the female men are not in the minority, and the weak ones are waiting for the first group of people to finish eating, and wait on the side first.

Don't think that it is easy to get a meal in the cafeteria, it is really impossible to eat without a little strength and legs, except for day students, two thousand students eat at the same time, that grand scene can be imagined.

Fortunately, the canteen at this time does not serve vegetables, only rice, noodles, steamed buns or something in the south, and the economic conditions can only be regarded as very general Batou Township, don't think about it, even the rice is yellow, Zhang Chen remembers that he once ate mice in the rice.

At this time, the meal ticket was a small note no more than three centimeters wide and nearly 20 centimeters long, densely stamped with many red and blue stamps, including 3 taels, 4 taels, 5 taels, and 6 taels, as if there had been no other units.

These meal tickets are brought by the students themselves to the cafeteria to pay for firewood, because the rice brought by the students' families is often new rice produced in the rice fields every year, so the school canteen is not good.

At the beginning of the semester every year, the new rice paid by the students is collected and sold at a high price, and then a batch of old rice is bought every once in a while.

As for the dish, this is an eternal sad memory in Zhang Chen's heart, not only him, but perhaps all the township middle school students in that era experienced that difficult and almost collapsed day.

What is the most stuff in the dormitory besides the basin for life?

Bottles and cans!

Glass bottles, iron lunch boxes, plastic cans, and all kinds of bottles and cans are available under the bed and on the table of almost every student, with only two at the least, four or even five at the most.

These things can be said to have accompanied almost all the township middle school students throughout their junior high school careers, and the role of these bottles and cans is nothing else, but to hold pickles.

Pickled and fried dried radish, pickles, watermelon rinds - everything, as long as it can be pickled and eaten, even garlic and peppers have become a rarity, and the white rice brought back from the cafeteria is a main meal, and sometimes even a faint layer of green hair grows on the dish, so I have to close my eyes and stir with chopsticks to continue eating.

Don't talk about whether you have nutrition or not, just think about whether you can eat enough.

But this kind of life seems to be some distance from Zhang Chen, although there are also two glass bottles under his bed, but in his glass jars, there are definitely not pickles, but pieces of dried fish that have been fried in oil and are yellow, exuding a faint smell of fishy, garlic and chili.

There is absolutely no shortage of fish in the old Zhangjia family, the pond is full of fish, and Liu Aiping's skill in pickling dried fish is absolutely not to say, otherwise Zhang Chen would not have brought these bottles and cans.

On the other side of the village cafeteria, there is a relatively small window, which is a teacher's exclusive canteen window, because not all teachers cook at home, so there are also teachers in the cafeteria to eat food.

But the teacher's food is much better, three meals in the morning, noon and evening, almost all meals have two vegetables, and if it is better, there will be a meal with meat, and it is not much better to say that it is good, but after all, there is no need to eat pickles to live.

Zhang Chen's conditions must be much better than the students, so naturally he won't eat pickles, even with Zhang Hailin and Hu Qiang, almost every meal has vegetables.

It costs 3 to 5 cents to beat two servings of vegetables for a meal, Zhang Chen has a maximum of 6 taels of meal tickets for each meal, one dollar buys 4 servings of vegetables back, if there are meat dishes, buy one meat dish, eat two portions by himself, Zhang Hailin and Hu Qiang divide the other portions, if you want to say that other people are not red, it must be fake, but Zhang Chen did not do a good job to the point of inviting everyone to eat vegetables at once.

Bang!

The door of the dormitory was kicked open, and Zhang Chen frowned.

It was none other than Zhu Yongfei who kicked the door, this kid ate in the township for three days and two ends, although he lived in the house, but he was stunned and made a bed in the school dormitory, and he also spread a quilt in the dormitory to occupy the territory.

This is people's freedom, Zhang Chen can't say anything, but this guy's behavior is really not good, the water for washing his face does not pour in the basin for a few days, the bowl for eating is washed every time he needs to use it, the dormitory door is only more than a month, and he has kicked off a wooden board in the middle.

He'd seen it like this more than once.

"Yongfei, you light, don't kick them badly, you won't know if the little brother flies at night!"

"Hahaha!"

Zhu Yongfei can afford to joke this little, but it also depends on who is joking, he thinks that Zhang Chen can't do it, so he didn't say anything, and if he couldn't get along with Zhang Chen with his figure, it was definitely looking for a fight.

Zhang Chen has no temper, but that doesn't mean Hu Qiang doesn't.

Hu Qiang's age is one year older than the average person in the class, 13 years old has passed, and he looks tall, he has long looked at Zhu Yongfei unpleasantly.

"Zhu Yongfei, if the dormitory door is broken, you are responsible for repairing him, if it is not your own, don't kick it indiscriminately."

"What's wrong with Lao Tzu's love to kick!"

Although Zhu Yongfei was a little stunned, but the young man didn't have a bit of blood, and Hu Qiang's fire didn't burn immediately.

"You kind of say it again, whose Lao Tzu are you?"

"Paralyzed, Lao Tzu will abolish you today, what are you hanging."

Zhang Chen grabbed Hu Qiang, who was about to rush up after putting down the bowl, and raised his eyes to look at Zhu Yongfei, whose face was red and stiff, this is really going to fight, Hu Qiang 1 can overturn Zhu Yongfei 3, although as the squad leader Zhang Chen has always played the role of soy sauce, but after all, he can't let the deputy squad leader beat Zhu Yongfei.

After resting his anger, Hu Qiang continued to eat.

In front of Zhang Chen, even Hu Qiang had to look forward to him, not to mention that Zhang Chen recommended him to be the deputy squad leader and invited him to eat dishes for more than a month, that is, Zhang Chen didn't look very strong, and Hu Qiang couldn't do it just because of the strength of the dead cow and the dead cow, and there was also a Zhang Hailin who was a little taller and stronger than Hu Qiang, who followed Zhang Chen all day long.

At this time, the students are still relatively young after all, Zhang Chen is rich, has good grades, and does not blush, the key is that he can still fight, so most of the students in the dormitory are still more convinced of him.
