After Qin Dayu received the letter from his daughter-in-law, he was sad.

He was afraid that something would happen to his son while he was abroad.

And he shed tears of sorrow.

Zhang Guangming hurriedly persuaded: "Don't worry, no news is not necessarily a bad thing?"

Do you think, maybe he went to **, maybe he went to Taiwan, maybe he went somewhere else?

Anyway, I'll find him. ”

Captain Qin said: I hope it is like what you said!

He sighed and waved away.

Zhang Guangming looked at Captain Qin, who was already slightly hunchbacked, and a kind of desolation welled up in his heart.

I feel that he is eagerly looking forward to his son every day, who does not know whether he is dead or alive, so pitiful!

Zhang Zhishu said with emotion: "You see that he has planted so many flowers and is so beautiful, but Qin Xueqi doesn't know where to make money."

Her wife is looking for her husband with her triplets and sons!"

"Oh, what's going on? " The young man named Sun Yong asked curiously.

Other educated youths also looked at Zhang Zhishu with expectant eyes and said, "Please tell Zhang Zhishu in detail." ”

Zhang Guangming sighed with emotion, and introduced the family's situation endlessly: "The original owner of this house is called Qin Dayu.

He is a third-generation single passer, working in Tancheng, Shandong, he is a picky person to find a partner, and he only found a suitable partner in his thirties.

After several years of marriage, she gave birth to a son named Qin Xueqi.

Qin Dayu and his wife both worked in the factory, so they wanted their parents to go to Tancheng, Shandong Province to help them take care of their children, but their parents said that they would not leave their hometown.

Qin Dayu and his wife were very helpless, so they took the child over and handed it over to his parents to raise.

Qin Xuezi has been living in the old house of his hometown with his grandparents, and the two old people have also been taking good care of their grandson to grow up in my village.

But the grandparents are getting older and are seriously ill all year round.

Qin Dayu thought about it again and again, so he asked his grandson to help take care of the two old people.

Qin Xueqi gradually grew up again, and his parents built him a new house in this yard, and found him a wife from a neighboring village, named Zhao Yalan.

After they got married, Zhao Yalan gave birth to triplets the next year.

Three children need to feed, where is there enough to eat?

This crying, that making trouble, made the little couple anxious.

The two young people also have to take care of two sick elderly people and three children who lack milk to eat.

How can the two of them take care of it?

So Qin Dayu insisted on letting his parents, son and daughter-in-law take their three grandsons to Tancheng, Shandong Province, to live with them.

Together, we took care of two elderly people and raised three children.

The old man just now was Qin Xueqi's father, Qin Dayu.

Originally, when Qin Dayu and his wife were working in Tancheng, Shandong, they bought a house there and settled down.

It stands to reason that the daughter-in-law gave birth to three grandchildren, so it should be considered a blessing to have many sons.

But in those years, Qin Dayu's father and mother were hospitalized in turn, and all the family's savings were used to treat the elderly, and life was stretched.

Hunger due to lack of food.

Therefore, Zhao Yalan's milk gradually disappeared.

But at that time, there was no money to buy milk powder for the three children.

His family didn't even have the money to buy lotus root flour, and the three children were so hungry that they cried.

The grandparents were short of money to buy medicine, and Qin Xueqi was angry, so he came up with the idea of going out of Shandong to make money.

He said to his wife: I want to earn a lot of money for my son, so I don't have to worry about the money for my grandparents' medical treatment, and I don't have to worry about the money for our three sons to buy milk powder.

Zhao Yalan named the eldest son Qin Nianxue, the second son Qin Nianqi, and the third son Qin Nianqin.

She just wants the child to remember his father Qin Xueqi, and she also wants the child to remember diligently.

She didn't expect that in order to change her poor life, her husband would be heard from as soon as he left.

Her father-in-law, Qin Dayu, suspected that his son was on the way to **, and it was very likely that he was drowned.

Her mother-in-law suspected that his son had arrived, and Chen Shimei had married and had children again.

Zhao Yalan cries every day and misses her husband very much.

The day before the earthquake that occurred in Tancheng, Shandong Province in 68 years, the 8.5 magnitude earthquake known as the "Magnificent Disaster", Qin Dayu and his father suddenly died of illness.

Qin Dayu took his mother, wife, daughter-in-law, and three little grandsons back to his hometown, that is, my village, to handle the funeral for his father.

No one expected that the next day, their home and factory in Shandong collapsed, and they were all in ruins.

Qin Dayu buried his father, and when he returned to Tancheng, Shandong, he was immediately dumbfounded.

Their home is gone, and so is the factory.

So, he was very helpless, so he took his family and returned to my village.

The family lived a hard rural life.

Zhao Yalan's three sons have reached the age of eight and are already old enough to go to school.

But the family is very poor, but they can't afford to pay the children's tuition.

So she swore that she would never return to the village until she found her husband.

Therefore, you young people should build our motherland into prosperity and strength.

If life is rich, who wants to leave their homeland?

The intellectuals all nodded heavily.

The girl named Li Zhongqiu looked at the flowers in full bloom in the garden and said softly: This is really "People don't know where to go, and the flowers are still smiling at spring!" ”

Zhang Zhishu said: "You changed the poem of Cui Hu in the Tang Dynasty and used it here, which is not bad."

But what? I think it should be used with Don. The poem in Cen Shen's "Two Spring Stories in the Mountain House" "The garden tree does not know how to go away, and the old flowers are still sent in spring" is more appropriate! ”

The educated youths all looked at Zhang Zhishu with admiration.

Everyone talked and laughed all the way, and before they knew it, they came to the outside of the village.

"Wow! Look at the graceful and luxurious peony flowers here; Pretty moon flowers of all colors; There are also fine leaves and thin stems on the top, but there are handsome and red mountain peach blossoms; There are also stout and generous golden sunflowers. ”

"Yes, there are charming poppies of purple, blood-red, and baby pink; There are also handsome begonia flowers with red, yellow, pink and white colors; Butterflies and flowers, all kinds of handsome orchids, five-star flowers. It's beautiful! ”

"Wow! It's really beautiful! ”

"It's so beautiful here!"

The educated youths were amazed.

Li Zhongqiu, who was born in Luoyang, said with a smile: "When I see this, I think of my hometown, our peony flowers in Luoyang are also as beautiful as the peonies here!" ”

Zhang Zhishu jokingly said: "Huh? You were born in the ancient capital of Luoyang?

Luoyang peony is known to the world!

Then you have a good dream tonight. ”

Zhang Zhishu said again: Isn't there a poem - the spring breeze blows incense overnight, and the dream chases the spring breeze to Los Angeles.

Qin Chun listened to Zhang Zhishu say a poem in the Chunxing of Wu Yuanheng in the Tang Dynasty.

He stood stunned, not only him, but the others were even more stunned.

What everyone didn't expect was that this old hat village party secretary was dressed in a coarse cloth coat with patches and patches, and on his feet were old cloth shoes with a mille-feuille bottom.

He's so proficient in poetry!

This is really "people cannot be disguised, and the sea water cannot be measured"!

It's just incredible.

They admired the look of looking up at the village party secretary in front of them.

Ma Xiaomei passionately pointed to the blue wheat field and said, "Look, ah! There is as much wheat here as a group of new Young Pioneers!

Stand in high spirits to greet us!

Look at the endless cotton fields that are verdant and vibrant; These rows of fruit trees are showing off their branches as best they can, showing us their majestic bodies!"

The beautiful girl Li Xuehua flicked her ponytail, tilted her head and whispered: "You listen to the woods, chirping, chirping, chirping, and hundreds of birds singing joyful songs, expressing your welcome to us!" ”

Everyone burst out laughing.

"Ah, look at the ducks and geese in that river, also singing beautiful songs, and welcoming us!" Ma Xiaomei said excitedly.

"Beautiful Muye Flower Village, let's enjoy your beautiful "face"!" Miss Li Zhongqiu stretched out her arms and raised them high, and she said in a rough voice with great excitement.

Everyone sang poems and praised them with passion.

Wu Baoguo's mood was even higher, and he said with emotion: "I finally understand why the leaders of the province will let us, the enthusiastic young people with knowledge, come to the beautiful and vast world of the countryside, they hope that we will have aspiring young people to make great achievements in the countryside!"

We can't live up to the ardent expectations of our leaders! ”

Sun Yong also said enthusiastically: "Yes, we must not live up to the expectations of the leaders, let us, the knowledgeable and educated youth, come to learn scientific farming from our peasant friends and engage in rural construction!"

Qin Chun said with a sincere face: "We have to work hard to be worthy of the oath we made when we came!"

Li Zhongqiu also said excitedly: "Yes, resolutely listen to the party's words, the party calls on our intellectual young people to go to the countryside to work and practice, and accept the test of the working people!" ”

The educated youth are full of passion, and they are full of incomparable love and infinite admiration for this strange and mysterious village.

The next day, as usual, Zhang Zhishu went to the engraving factory in three shifts before dawn to guide the engraving technique.

Gui Xiaobao said strangely: Brother Zhang, you come to the carving factory every day when you smell the chickens and dance, and today is even earlier? ”

"The reason why I came earlier today is that I have to entertain the educated youths to eat at my house in the morning."

Li Dongzhi said: "That branch secretary, you should go home quickly, I will keep an eye on it for you here." ”

Gui Xiaobao also said: Yes, yes, you go back and prepare a meal for the educated youth.

Zhang Zhishu waved his hand and said, "See you in the morning." ”

……

He carried a basket on the side of the road home and gathered three kinds of wild vegetables: rice artemisia, wolfberry leaves, pig hair, and when he got home, he picked up some lettuce, spinach, and lettuce grown in the yard.

Then he took the wild vegetables in the basket, picked off the yellow leaves and old leaves, washed and cut them, and handed them to his wife.

Zhang Guangming said: "I'll boil water, you come to blanch a few dishes, the educated youths from their city will like to eat." ”

Li Yue'e used the same wild vegetables as boiling water, and she began to adjust the vegetables after she blanched them.

Li Yue'e said to her husband with some worry: "I don't know if those people from the city like to eat these wild vegetables?" ”
