Guide
Since the 1980s, the thinking of peasants has changed, they are no longer following the way of life facing the loess with their backs to the sky, and some flexible peasants have gone out of the mountains, into the city, and to the outside world.
Nationwide, there are most of the peasants who work part-time, and it can be said that the construction of every beautiful city is inseparable from the mood and sweat of the brothers of the peasant workers, who are the main force in the development and construction of the new era.
We are here in the Chengde area, relatively close to Beijing, in recent years, many people have gone to Beijing to work.
There is a family in the village, the ancestors have been farmers for generations, this farmer is called Yangpu, Yangpu has a total of four sons, no daughters.
Yangpu's brother-in-law was in the recycling business in Beijing, so he called Yangpu's four sons to help, that is, to work for his uncle.
The four boys were very angry, they worked in their uncle's shop for a few years, then worked separately and had their own small business.
Migrant worker upstart
A few years ago, in Beijing to do waste recycling business people have made a fortune, those years Beijing waste is particularly many, do recycling waste business people are very few, many people think that such guys are dirty and tired, waste prices are low, in this trend, not many people are willing to do this industry.
Farmers are not afraid of tiredness, not afraid of dirty, not afraid of suffering, after they enter the city, they find that doing other things is not suitable for themselves, they collect waste there, and then go to the designated shop to sell, many people find this road very good, so they slowly have their own stalls.
。 Doing recycling waste business is very hard, every morning at 4 o'clock, the boss and workers have to get up to sort out those types of recycled waste, the same kind of waste together, and then sorted out, at night at about 11 o'clock to sleep, the amount of labor is very large, live in the place is a temporary small shed.
Waste is very dirty, when people throw waste, they throw waste in the garbage heap, waste is naturally dirty and messy, people who do waste picking guys must have the strength to bear hardships and stand hard work, otherwise this dirty work cannot be done.
In the summer, the weather in Beijing is particularly hot, the waste east will emit a bad smell, crouching there to pick up the waste, really need enough courage and endurance.
Fortunately, farmers have the spirit of bearing hardships and standing hard work, they are not afraid of tiredness in their work, as long as they can make money, they are willing to work hard.
A few years later, Yangpu's four sons became well-known bosses, who drove back to the village during the Spring Festival, and they also bought a building in the city.
People in the village will give them a thumbs up when they mention it, some people also take the opportunity to go to Beijing and start the same business, Yangpu's four sons have led many people in the village, some of them are doing small business there, some are working there.
Spring festival
There is such a phenomenon in the countryside, there are not many people in the village on weekdays, during the New Year, every family will put on a display of lights, there are many people in the family, that is, the brothers of migrant workers who have worked hard outside for a year, go home to reunite for the New Year.
Yangpu's four sons have been out for many years, last year's Spring Festival, they returned to their hometown, when they drove into the village, found that the former lively village is very quiet, they got off the car and returned home, found that the small mountain village is full of empty houses, only one family's smoke in the smoke pipe.
Later, when I inquired, the young people in the village bought houses in the city, and they did not come back during the Spring Festival, and the old people were also taken to the city. Because the winter there is very cold, it is inconvenient to go back to the hometown for heating, and the buildings in the city are warm, so the old people are taken to the city for the Spring Festival.
There are also some farmers, the children are admitted to college, the parents follow the children into the city, the children work in the city, the parents help to take care of the children, the old house at home has become an empty house.
Yangpu's four sons walked around the village and took out their mobile phones to take pictures, and the children spun around them.
Since there was only one family left in the village, when they returned, they could only go to that family to visit the door, and at night the two families sat together and talked about what they saw and heard in the village.
The peasants who came out of the mountains, their lives were rich, the old man who stayed in the countryside was an old couple, the old man was 88 years old, the wife was 91 years old, they had a total of two sons and five daughters, and now the children have become a family, they have their own descendants, if they go over, they are four generations in the same house, and you have become the old people of sixty or seventy years old, they are not willing to go into the city, they do not want to add chaos to the children, they are not used to the life in the city, they can not leave the rural hometown, although the old home is an adobe house (the original wool grass is ripped down, They have a deep affection for the old house, where there were silhouettes of their youth and their happy past.
Yangpu's four sons lived in the village for a few days, and then drove out to visit relatives, in their opinion, no matter how many families there are in the village, it is their hometown that has been born and raised, and there is a long-lost warmth.
