It was only around ten o'clock and the street was quiet.

The little guy lay on Chen Xi's shoulder and slept soundly. He didn't know her dearest grandmother and father. Now he is discussing to throw her to the countryside to experience life.

The speed of urban development is faster and faster.

From the 1990s to the millennium, from BB to cell phone, and then to Nokia and Motorola.

Decade after decade, Nokia went bankrupt and reorganized, and Motorola was half dead.

From the crown and santala that everyone envies, to Land Rover and cayenne all over the street.

After wave after wave of rapid development, China has directly entered the era of mobile payment without even popularizing credit cards.

Primary school students buy pancakes and fruits with their mobile phones, and the stall aunt collects money with a QR code.

Mainland people can't afford tea eggs, which once became a big joke all over the Internet, but now no one has mentioned it.

The Bay will be recovered sooner or later.

In another ten years, who dares to mention independence on Hong Kong Island and Tibetan areas?

The speed of development of China has stunned the Western powers and made them more deeply realize that the lion from the East finally woke up.

However.

Although the speed of economic development is very fast, some things obviously do not follow the pace of economic development, but become slightly worse than before.

In the past, people called farmers uncle.

Later, people called farmers brothers.

Later, the word "farmer" seemed to become a curse.

Now the so-called urban people are pushed up three generations. Whose ancestors were not born in farmers?

To borrow a word from the Spring Festival Gala, that is - mania.

People are too manic now.

Programs like deformers shouldn't appear.

For children in the city, this program undoubtedly gives them a good educational opportunity to see the hardships of ordinary people, so that they can learn to respect and cherish their current life.

However, for rural children and parents, this program brings them endless harm and doubts about themselves and society.

Kind and simple rural children, after seeing the lights and wine in big cities, will they ask: why?

Why should the rich second generation be decadent but never worry about food and clothing?

Why is it that the poor second generation is industrious and intelligent, but can't get out of the mountain all their life?

Education has never been an immediate thing, but a protracted battle.

From the moment Chen Xi returned to Niannian, he was ready for the battle.

He wants to teach us how to be a man.

What is man?

The nature of heaven and earth is the most expensive.

This script is like an arm and a shin. All people belong to people.

Man means an upright animal who knows how to bow and humility.

So it's the same sentence: ten years of trees, a hundred years of people.

There is no perfect person in the world, and Chen Xi just wants to try her best to cultivate her daughter into a "person" recognized in his mind.

……

The next morning, the family set out in the cheers of the little guy.

In the little guy's understanding of the word "countryside", it is no different from scenic spots.

Therefore, the little guy was very excited when he heard that Chen Xi said he would take her to Aunt Zhang's hometown.

Chen Xi chartered a business car, and then a family of seven went straight to Yucheng.

Aunt Zhang's hometown is in Yingxian County under the jurisdiction of Yucheng. She first goes to Yingxian county from the expressway, then goes to the countryside from national highway 108, and then runs more than ten kilometers of winding mountain highway before finally arriving at the production team of Aunt Zhang's hometown.

Of course, the name of the production team has been abolished and now it is called the villagers' group.

The little guy has been staying in super first tier cities such as Shangjing and Zhonghai, and all he sees is reinforced concrete jungle.

Suddenly came to such a beautiful place, really let her have a special novel experience.

Many people don't know that there are actually three silk roads. In addition to the mainland passage from Chang'an to Rome opened by Zhang Qian of the Han Dynasty, the other is the Southwest Silk Road.

The predecessor of the Southwest Silk Road is the ancient tea horse road, from Sichuan to Yunnan, through Myanmar to India, and finally to Iran.

National Highway 108 starts from Shangjing and ends at Chuncheng, Dianzhou, with a total length of 3356 kilometers.

After this national road enters Sichuan, it basically follows the route of the ancient tea horse road.

The car winds along the National Road, because it is a winding mountain road, so the speed is very slow.

On one side of the road is a cliff, on the other side is a cliff, and below the cliff is a surging river.

Has the little guy ever seen such a spectacular scene?

So she was very excited, lying on the window, looking at the river under the cliff and constantly making startling calls.

Most of the rural areas in the North live in a centralized way, while the rural areas in the south like to live in a scattered way. Therefore, along the road, from time to time, we will see several lonely courtyards standing on the edge of the cliff. Before the construction of Beijing Kunming expressway, national highway 108 was the only way from Sichuan to Dianzhou, so many villagers along the road would set up restaurants and canteens to earn some extra money from long-distance outsiders to subsidize their families. However, with the completion and opening of Beijing Kunming expressway, national highway 108 has declined. After all, there is a high-speed, who will circle and bump on the old road? This has also led to the almost stagnation of the economic development speed on this line, and even retrogression. Most of the small foreign houses seen along the road were built more than ten years ago. In recent years, real estate speculation has been so fierce that people have also been greatly affected. Now, anyone who has some money will go to the county to buy a house and move his family into the county instead of building his own house and continue to be trapped in this place. This is also the result of the development of the times. Aunt Zhang's hometown is poorer than Chen Xi imagined... This place is called tongjiagou, which is five kilometers away from the nearest township. It is a small village. On both sides of the road, there are several small foreign houses with two floors. The first floor of the foreign house is a restaurant, but now the door is closed. Even the sign with food and accommodation has become dilapidated because it has not been taken care of. In addition to these foreign houses, most of them are bungalows, and some are even dark wooden houses. At first glance, they are old buildings in the 1950s and 1960s. There is no school in the village. If the children want to go to school, they have to spend a dollar every morning and take a van to go to the township middle school. But who has few rich and powerful relatives now? However, when children reach the age of middle school, the villagers will send their children to stay in the county or relatives in the township. Therefore, there are basically no teenagers in this place. Instead, there are many children of the same age. The children were in groups. As soon as they saw the GL8 from Chengdu, they swarmed around. After Qin Ruoying led the little guy out of the car, several children immediately gathered around and chirped in a dialect she didn't understand at all. The battle completely surprised the little guy, and immediately made her a little afraid. The little guy timidly hid most of his body behind Qin Ruoying, revealing only half of his head and looking at his peers in front of him. She was afraid of others, but the children in front of her were not afraid of her. Instead, they made faces at her with a smile. Aunt Zhang noticed the little guy's abnormality, laughed like driving ducks, waved to the children and said, "go and play." The children seemed to know Aunt Zhang, so they chirped and ran away in a swarm. The children ran away, and the little guy timidly came out from behind Qin Ruoying. She looked at the foreign houses around her and the dilapidated bungalow not far away. This small village built on the national highway has mountains on one side and river valleys on the other. Because few cars pass here now, the village looks very quiet. Looking at this strange place, the little guy suddenly felt a sense of depression.
