In the morning of early spring, slightly cold but not biting, on the Tengping Highway leading to the countryside, the poplars on both sides show their buds, and the three rivers that slowly stretch into view are gone, replaced by the happy river dug by people in the seventies, the river channel is dry, there is no sand and gravel, the river weir is straight, and a few trees are naturally dotted on the river dam, and because there is no sand at the bottom of the river, the whole river body looks desolate. (Article Reading Network: )

The Sandao River in my memory is 60 or 70 meters wide, and the riverbed is more than one meter lower than the ground, so there is no weir in the Sandao River, the river sand is fine and golden, and the crystal clear river water flows slowly all year round, and the gurgling sound of the river is like a greeting to the people who cross the river. Going forward, through an orchard, you will reach the Erdao River. Erdao River and Sandao River belong to sister rivers, but they are completely different, when I just have a memory, often hold my mother's hand to catch the market, the river has been cut off, the riverbed thick river sand, from time to time shining with light points, and irregularly grow a variety of plants, there are more than ten meters of river weir on the west side of the river, plant a few poplar trees, blown by the river wind from time to time to make a loud noise, people who rush to the market are tired, often here to enjoy the shade. Along the ridge without footprints, I found the "ancient ditch" that I had not been close to for many years, this ditch is only one or two meters wide, the water potential is impermanent according to the seasons, all kinds of weeds and aquatic plants are overgrown on both sides of the ditch, and people built a two-hole bridge on the ditch in the sixties, which is convenient for the people who come and go.

After walking through the "ancient ditch", we walked into the back street of the neighboring village. The east and west pass through to the hometown, there is no trace of the river in the west of the village, the river surface has been replaced by the houses, the east bank of the original river is a well, it is called "the temple well" by the people, the water of the temple well is very shallow, sweet and desirable, shallow enough to reach out to lift the water, with the river water breaking off, this well does not know which year it dried up. I walked into the village like this, and met a group of children playing, of course I don't know who their father and mother were, and the children saw the strange old man, and ran away one by one, which couldn't help but remind me of the Tang Dynasty poet He Zhizhang's "Returning to the Hometown Puppet Book":

The young left home and the eldest returned,

The country accent has not changed, and the sideburns have declined.

Children don't know each other,

Smile and ask where the guest is from.

Tengping Highway has been widened several times, more straight and spacious than before, from the village entrance to the north and Tengping Highway is connected, the road is wider but far away, for the diversion of this road, people are mixed, no one comments, I'm afraid people are too lazy to say.

Chapter 2: The Village Has Changed

The things that went before have been made ancient, sealed up by people, and become a piece of history. As the elderly people have left, like autumn crops, stubble after stubble, because it is difficult to return because you can't buy a return ticket, so, in another ten years, twenty years, I wrote right or wrong will be no one to verify, the things mentioned here are some scattered memories, deviations, omissions are inevitable, please forgive me, and correct mistakes in time, do not mislead future generations.

When I was a child, the village was very compact, with more than 800 people in the village, four production teams, and almost no empty garden in the whole village. There is a river to the west of the village, which runs down the southwest of the village and forms the water system of the village. There is a naturally growing reed swing on the Hexi Cliff in the southwest corner of the village. In the northeast of the village, there is a stone pond in one or two miles, in the late sixties and early seventies of the last century, the stone pond as the economic pillar of the village, the collective mining of each production team, maintained and promoted the economic development of the village, and also drove the economic income, the whole village has increased the row of cars nearly 100 cars, simple, hard-working people pull the stones after excavation and mining to the surroundings, a row of cars by manpower to pull about a ton of stones, step by step with beads of sweat, really a bead of sweat fell eight petals.

At first, it was the hard-working, kind and simple people of Fengzhuang Village here who germinated my thoughts, and it was my original intention to write them down, and it was my heart that deeply loved my homeland and the people of Fengzhuang. I really don't have a good idea to write about the changes in the village, I can't start writing, I don't want to and I don't want to sing praises to anyone, I just want to write about the moments of living in the village for 20 years, so that young people can understand, this is my responsibility, this is the inheritance.

The wheels of society are rolling forward, and if you look far away, our village may exist for ten or twenty years, but it will not exist in thirty or fifty years, or it may merge with those villages to form a community, so it is necessary for the village to leave something.

Speaking of the village alone, we must start from the Four Realms, all the streets in the village have changed. I looked horizontally and vertically, and observed carefully, the east and west streets rolled a lot to the north, and the north and south streets rolled to the east, I don't know what the purpose of such a plan is. In the past, there were only two or three rows of houses in the north of East and West Avenue, and the third row of houses was built one after another in the seventies, when there was a big road behind the village, and the north road was seven or eight meters south of Qinjialin. The second is the river weir in the west of the village as the boundary point, the house of Baoyu's family is the most northwest corner, the house is built according to the river, the house is the east and west street behind the house, the road through the river, there is a well on the north side of the road, because this well is called the temple well at the west end of the temple house, so that the river weir goes down to the southwest, constituting the west of the village. At the earliest, the south of the village was bounded by the north bank of Nan Da Keng, and the south side of Nan Keng was the wheat field of the third and fourth teams, and the southeast corner of the wheat field of the fourth team was the Land Temple, which may have been demolished during the Cultural Revolution. The current military family first built a house on the south side of the wheat field, behind an old forest, and gradually expanded southward, which was the southernmost part of the village in the early seventies. The east side of the village is bounded by the east end of Dongkeng, when there were almost no houses in the east of Dongkeng, all were vegetable gardens, in the late seventies, the village gradually developed eastward, became what it is now, the village is bigger, the middle is empty, and there is less land.

The situation of the rural areas who have been living on land for generations has not been completely changed, and if the land is gone, the conditions for the peasants to survive will be gone, and the northern, eastern, and western slopes will all be gone, and now only a little land in the south of the village is left, most of which is artificially occupied, and the land has been greatly reduced.

Here I would like to say a superfluous remark: Have governments at all levels fulfilled their responsibilities? In particular, township and town party committees and governments can only entertain people? If officials do not make decisions for the people, it is better to go home and sell sweet potatoes.

Let's go back to the original story and talk about the natural environment of the village. The village now talks about feng shui, which is much worse than forty years ago, because the river is cut off is an external factor, and the village is "dry and dry, sparse, ruined, full of desolation, unbearable to see". In the past, the natural water system in the village was formed with Nandakeng as the center, and every June and July, the rainwater of the whole village surged to Nandakeng, and when Nandakeng could not bear it, it flowed to Nangou, and the water of Nangou watered the fruits on both sides of the ditch
