Chapter Forty-Nine: The Ordinary World

This little girl's name is Tao Jing, she is a girl from a poor mountainous area, the reason why she came to the provincial capital to study in the third elementary school, most of them are because both parents went to the provincial capital to work, and then there are no trustworthy relatives in her hometown, so her parents brought her to the provincial capital to study.

Tao Jing because of her timid nature, coupled with poor family conditions, so that few people in the class are willing to play with her, over time, Tao Jing was alienated by her classmates and partners, whenever the bell rang after class, the students always went to the playground in groups to play and play, and there was no one else in the whole classroom except Tao Jing.

Zhang Shaoping has been teaching here for a little longer, and he can more or less name the students in the class, and the students in the class feel a little intimate in their hearts when they face the teacher in front of them who is not much older than him.

One day, Zhang Shaoping stood on the podium with a textbook to teach the students in the class to read the Tang Dynasty poet Bai Juyi's "Farewell to the Ancient Grass", only to see Tao Jing lying on the desk alone in a daze, Zhang Shaoping saw this scene, slowly walked to Tao Jing's side, pulled his throat, and said: "Tao Jing, get up and read to me the poem I just taught you to read." ”

Tao Jing raised his head weakly, stood up from the wooden bench, and read in a hoarse voice: "The grass on the plain is one year old and one is withered, the wildfire is inexhaustible, and the spring breeze blows and grows." ”

Zhang Shaoping saw that Tao Jing looked a little unsettled, so he asked her to sit down and continued to teach the classmates in the class to read Bai Juyi's "Farewell to the Ancient Grass".

After class, the students in the classroom hurried out as soon as they heard the bell for the end of class, and Tao Jing was the only one in the whole classroom who lay on the table and whimpered and cried, Zhang Shaoping heard her crying and walked slowly towards her.

When Zhang Shaoping walked up to Tao Jing, he gently put a hand on her thin shoulder and said, "Tao Jing, what's wrong with you?" Is someone bullying you? ”

After hearing Zhang Shaoping's words, Tao Jing raised her head slightly, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her sleeve, and said in a hoarse voice: "Teacher Zhang, no, no one bullied me." ”

"Then why are you crying? Don't be afraid, if you have anything to say to me, don't treat me as your teacher, just as your brother, you tell me and see if I can help you. ”

Tao Jing received care from someone other than her family for the first time, and her heart suddenly warmed up, and she whimpered and said, "Teacher Zhang, I'm ...... I...... I'm about to take a break from school......"

"For... For...... Why? Why do you want to take a leave of absence, isn't this a good study all the time? ”

"Because, because my family can't afford to pay for my studies, I can't afford to pay for the next semester."

Oh, yes! At that time, it took a lot of money to study, and there were only a few people like Zhang Shaoping who could study from primary school to university, and some people had to drop out of school and go home to help raise pigs and chickens at home because of their poor families, or to do business in the market and run for their future lives.

Zhang Shaoping gently stroked her thin-looking arm, and said seriously: "Tao Jing, Teacher Zhang asked if you want to study." ”

Tao Jing said categorically: "I think, I want to study, but what's the use of thinking?" My parents can't afford to send me to school. ”

Zhang Shaoping gritted his teeth and said, "As long as you want to, there will always be a way to solve the tuition fee." ”

"Teacher Zhang, thank you for talking to me so much, but our family really has no choice, my parents were fired from the factory yesterday, and the family has no source of income, which may be precarious in the future, let alone submit tuition fees to study."

Zhang Shaoping said to Tao Jing cordially: "Don't be afraid, if you really can't afford to study at home, I can help you pay the tuition, I am a child of a poor family like you, but I am lucky, so I went to university, as long as you want to study, then study hard, and you will definitely be able to read a famous hall." ”

After Tao Jing listened, tears of excitement kept flowing down, this was the most touching word she had heard after being silent for a long time.

Let's take some time to talk about the changes in Zhangjiacun.........

The development of Zhangjia Village is thriving, every day is a change, every day is the same, and the situation of every household in the village is also a good time, but in recent years, there are more and more laid-off workers in the county, and the main reasons for these laid-off employees are: poor efficiency of state-owned enterprises, backward technology and equipment, heavy historical burdens, and the impact of private enterprises, foreign enterprises, and imported goods

and other reasons, resulting in losses and high debts of state-owned enterprises year after year. Therefore, there are more and more laid-off employees, and the reason why Tao Jing can't afford to study is also because of her parents' layoffs.

In order to solve the livelihood problems of themselves and their families, laid-off employees from enterprises have to take out all their belongings to start small businesses, such as: opening breakfast shops, opening small shops, and some laid-off workers get up early every day for their children, and drive taxis, the laid-off employees are buzzing like headless flies, getting up earlier than chickens and sleeping later than dogs, but for the sake of their families, parents and children, because they believe that as long as they are willing to fight, hardworking and capable, all this will be fine.

During that period of time, the most popular and the last thing we wanted to hear was Liu Huan's "Start Again".

"All the honors of yesterday have become distant memories."

"I have spent half my life diligently, and tonight I will go into the wind and rain again."

……………………………

"If the heart is in a dream, there is true love between heaven and earth."

"Looking at success or failure, life is heroic, but starting from scratch."

This exciting track inspires laid-off employees to keep moving forward for a better tomorrow.

The reason why the situation of the villagers in Zhangjia Village is so good is that they are village-run enterprises, and the employees in the brick kiln, prefabricated panel factory and engineering team are all in the same village, so every household is a branch of a collective.

In recent years, the income of the villagers has been getting higher and higher, and every family has bought watches, televisions, and some people have bought "big brothers" or "pagers", all because of the joint efforts of Zhang Fugui and Zhang Jianguo, as well as the result of the villagers' unity and unity.

Although the development speed of Zhangjiacun is fast, but with the development of many problems associated with the development is less and less, the number of people who build houses is getting fewer and fewer, which will implicate the economic benefits of brick kilns and prefabricated panel factories, plus Zhang Fugui's loans to the credit union in the early years are still hundreds of thousands of yuan have not been paid off, therefore, Zhang Fugui and Zhang Jianguo do not dare to relax in the slightest.

Just when Zhang Fugui and Zhang Jianguo were at a loss, Wang Weiliang, secretary of the county party committee, came to Zhangjia Village, a few years ago, it was because of the valuable suggestions put forward by Wang Weiliang, secretary of the county party committee, for Zhang Fugui that Zhangjia Village developed so well, and now Wang Weiliang, secretary of the county party committee, finally got out of his body and took a little precious time to come to Zhangjia Village to inspect.

This time, the inspection work was carried out without any notice, and everything was unprepared, and this is also what Wang Weiliang was happy to see, he did not want to see that kind of formalism, he wanted to see with his own eyes that the people in the village were doing well, and this was true.

After many years, Wang Weiliang came to Zhangjia Village again, this time he came by Santara, not by sand and gravel dirt road, but paved with brand new asphalt road, the car drove steadily on such a smooth road, the seedlings in the field were green, the breeze swayed back and forth in the seedlings in the field, and the car slowly drove to the entrance of the village.

At the entrance of the village, I looked at the asphalt roads that were paved everywhere, and most of the bungalows were three or four, five or six families in a row, the houses were facing north and south, the north-south longitudinal wide road was equipped with the sidewalks running east-west, ginkgo trees were planted on both sides of the road, every house had a courtyard, and there were drainage pipes that were uniformly placed, and water was connected to the water pipes from the county, and the layout of the wires was the same as the electric poles erected in the county, all of which were hung high with electric poles.

Wang Weiliang looked at everything that appeared in front of him, the whole scene was completely different from when he first came, he felt very happy, this is what he has always liked to see, he didn't expect it to come true, the more he thought about it, the more happy he felt, the more he felt that he had not seen the wrong person, Fugui is indeed a person with a lively brain, and he actually changed Zhangjiacun and took on a new look in this short period of ten years.

Just as Wang Weiliang walked into Zhangjia Village, the village was extremely lively, there were old people chatting in a group smoking dry tobacco bags, women sitting around knitting sweaters, and children chasing and chasing, giggling and laughing, everything here made him can't help but smile.

He walked slowly to the group of old people who were smoking dry tobacco bags and chatting, and there was Zhang Youcai in this group of people, and when he got closer, he stood aside and listened to the conversation between them, and saw that the old people were enjoying themselves, and he had a smug smile on his face from time to time.

Zhang Youcai inadvertently caught a glimpse of Wang Weiliang when he was smoking a dry tobacco bag, and he immediately stood up quickly, trembling his lips and said, "Old platoon leader, you, why are you here?" Don't let me know if you come, I'm ready to entertain you. ”

Wang Weiliang said with a smile: "Talented! What do I need to prepare? Besides, I'm here to see how our Zhangjia Village is doing, if you're ready, then won't I see the most real Zhangjia Village? ”

Zhang Youcai smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "Yes, yes, yes, the old platoon leader, go, go to my house, I asked my daughter-in-law Li Jianmei to cook a few good dishes, let's catch up with the old days." As soon as Zhang Youcai's words fell, he dragged Wang Weiliang to rush home.

"Talented! We haven't seen each other in a few days, have we? ”

"Yes! It's been about thirteen years, I remember when you came, every house in our village was a rotten wall mud tile house, and now every family in our family lives in a small bungalow, and now the scene is beautiful. ”

"Okay, just have a good life, I just made a special trip to see how we lived in Zhangjia Village this time."

Zhang Youcai said with a smile: "Old platoon leader, this situation is just like what you see, although the situation in our village is better, but the old platoon leader said before that as long as Zhangjia Village is rich, he will come to gather with me, but how many years have it been, I think you think you are tight!" ”

"Talented! Am I not here? Before, because I was busy with letting more villages and people in the county live a good life, so I couldn't get away, and I came to Zhangjia Village this time to finally spare a mile, you don't blame the old platoon leader, I am also on official business, and I can't help myself. ”
