Chapter 45: The scenery is no more
At this time, it was the early years of the Republic of China, and some people with a little culture and felt that they were a person with a little knowledge, and they had already made up some scientific and educational ways to save the country.
China's rural areas are vast, and there are many farmers, all of whom are white, blind, so how can it be! So some people said that they had to build a school or something in the Jingjiagou area.
Why Zhang Luo built a school in Jingjiagou, probably considering that Jingjiagou has such a learned person as Jing Zhiguo's father, whether this matter was mentioned by Jing Zhiguo's father, it is not known.
But no matter what you say, this matter has been taken seriously by the relevant departments in the county. Considering that Jingjiagou is a ravine, the road is rugged and difficult to walk, and the children in the surrounding three miles and five tuns come to school, not to mention the hard walking, how many pairs of shoes have to be broken that year!
It is better to choose a relatively flat land. As a result, Yuzhuang Tun became the location of Yuzhuang Primary School, and Jing Zhiguo's father was elected as the principal.
Yuzhuangtun is in the north of Jingjiagou, five miles away from Jingjiagou. Not long after Jing Zhiguo's father became the principal, good things came again.
With the implementation of the New Deal above, the revolution is over, and after the revolution is over, things must be done, and someone must say good things and bad things for them, and of course they want to say good things about them.
So the county drummed up a body called the Senate, and also recruited some individuals, all of whom were at the level of famous squires, to help say good things and bad things, and called them senators.
Jing Zhiguo's father was one of the first senators of Qin County in the Republic of China. In those years, Jing Zhiguo's father was very beautiful, wearing a brocade robe and horse coat, a green dress with a mille-feuille bottom round shoes, and a beanie green satin hat.
When I went out to run errands, I took an egg-blue peony horse car. The sedan was generally driven and sladen by a horse, and was equipped with a carriage for people to sit in, and a small door was left in the front and rear of the carriage, which was covered with a curtain for people to enter and exit.
The fancy car is very big, not to mention anything else, just the curtain hanging on the door of the carriage, it is big.
The curtain can be made of cotton and linen, or it can be a variety of silk and satin, it depends on who is riding, or what family background the person is riding, in general, those who can afford to sit in this car can of course belong to the ranks of the rich.
Jing Zhiguo's father is sitting in the car, of course, the curtain has to use good brocade! This is not enough. Jing Zhiguo's father found that the perimeter of the wheel, that is, the side of the rim connected by spokes, was nailed with round nails of iron, and when the wheel turned, it was a small pit on the ground.
So he asked people to start from the gate of his house ten zhang, until he went to the door of the main house in his yard, according to the wheelbase of the axle, dug two rows of ditches, bought a number of large clay cylinders and buckled them into the ditch, so that the bottom of the cylinder and the road were flat, and then buried with soil, leaving only the bottom of the tank exposed.
The fancy sedan went out and entered the door, and the iron nails on the wheels rolled from the bottom of the cylinder, knocking on the bottom of the cylinder, making a clear and pleasant sound, and Jing Zhiguo's father sitting in the car was comfortable in his heart, not to mention!
Time is like flowing water, and it is a few years in the blink of an eye. Jing Zhiguo's father was the county senator and the principal of Yuzhuang Primary School, and he didn't know why, in the late autumn of one year, there were a few thunderstorms in the blue sky, and the courtyard of his Qingtang washer was struck by lightning and caught fire, and the house was all good wood!
The fire burned so much that it crackled, and the ferocity of the fire was really rare, how could it be saved! Such a good yard, first the main house, and then the wing room, a fire burned down.
How thick Jing Zhiguo's father is! Rich! If you have money, you don't have to talk about it, but you also have to save face! In fact, having money and wanting face are often linked to each other, and if you don't have money, you can't save face.
Jing Zhiguo's father is a scholar, and in his place, it is best if money and face can be taken into account, if not, face seems to be more important.
Didn't the house burn down? Heavy cover! It's okay to rebuild, but you have to have money! Build a yard like this, and you'll get money!
I have money in my hand, but I can't take it all out to build a house, and I have to leave some emergency and hang out with my eldest brother?
That's a bit of a shame, you have to build a house and don't have enough money to build a house, so you have to fight the idea of land and sell land!
His family's land is all good land, who is it sold to? Who can afford it? There are a few families with a little strength, but if you are in a hurry to make a move, people will inevitably take you and lower the price!
Jing Zhiyi's father said, brother, brother advises you not to rush to make a move, live here first, brother, isn't this your home!
What else do we have to share between you and me! Jing Zhiguo's father is also used to being self-reliant, and it is so uncomfortable to send people under the fence!
He came up with a solution. He said to Jing Zhiyi's father, big brother, otherwise, we will transfer this land to you!
When Jing Zhiyi's father heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head. Jing Zhiguo's father thought that the eldest brother was because the brothers were not good at bargaining, that is, you set the price!
Jing Zhiyi's father said, alas! Brother, what is the price of our brothers, it's just for outsiders to gossip!
You can live here first, and then talk about it later! At this time, it must have been Jing Zhiguo's father who remembered the indifference in Jing Zhiyi's father's eyes when their father was about to divide the family for their brothers, so he said, what is the matter!
It's okay for a year and a half, but I can't live in your house for the rest of my life! When Jing Zhiyi's father heard it, it was also such a reason.
Let's just say, brother, if you really want to do this, we really can't think of any good tricks as brothers.
That's it, you have the final say on the land price, and you can say as much as you want! In this way, Jing Zhiguo's father transferred most of his land to Jing Zhiyi's father's name.
With money, things are easy to do. As it was, at the same site, the large courtyard of the Qingtang Tile House was built.
This time, when the old family was gone, Jing Zhiguo's father planned to hang a plaque on the gatehouse, which was also a few big characters in Yan Ti Kaishu.
I am a reader, looking for two words, the meaning is coherent, good-sounding, auspicious, a little tasteful, can express my own interest and life pursuit, that is a very easy thing!
Write by yourself, and then find a good carver, just the word, Bo Ren Tang. The meaning of these words is so rich!
If we don't have a certain level of cultivation in our country's writing and our country's ideology and culture, I'm afraid it will be a little difficult to understand.
But who would have thought that at the end of spring, when the yard had been completed, and the plaque on the gatehouse had just been hung up, only the cylinder that was buckled on the road had not been finished, one night, just in time for a windy day, the house was on fire again, and at dawn, the newly built yard was burned again!
This time, it must not have been caused by Tianhuo. Jing Zhiguo's father wanted to cry without tears, knowing that it must be the enemy's doing, but after thinking about it, he was a scholar and had never had such a grudge with anyone.
Report the crime! The county yamen sent people to come, looked left and right, left, and there was no news. After several reminders, they all said that they were investigating, and the investigation came and went, and the matter was over.
This time, the Jingzhi country was really defeated, and there were only a dozen acres of land left, and nothing else. Jing Zhiguo's father is a master who does not fall down, and that's it, he doesn't want to live in his brother's house, so he still built three flat-roofed brick houses by himself, relying on the income of being the principal of Yuzhuang Primary School and more than ten acres of land.
When people go, they are angry. Jing Zhiguo's father is capable, and he is the authority of Chinese studies in Shili Batun, but there are some things that are not capable.
He can be the principal, because others can't fix the principal, and the principal at that time really had to rank ahead of the teachers in your school in terms of learning, not to mention the first, but also the second, so that he could convince the public.
But when that county senator, it's a bit bad, and the county senator is representative. It is said that he is the authority of national studies in Shili Batun, and he is also representative by virtue of his knowledge, but his family is already dilapidated, and it is a bit different to be a senator of this county.
In the spring of the following year, the county removed Jing Zhiguo's father's title of county senator in the name of promoting newcomers.
At that time, Jing Zhiguo's father was in his forties, but too, the county senator had indeed been a few years, and he was not new.
Jing Zhiguo's father is a scholar, so he will withdraw! Teaching should still teach, and living should live.
About another two years have passed, and it is still smooth, poor, and the life is okay, but the matter is not over.
