When the policy document was placed in front of Lao Zhang, he hesitated. Abandoning a rural homestead and buying a house in the city seems to be a crossroads of fate, with the neon lights of the bustling city on one side and the earth-scented fields calling on the other. Lao Zhang, this old man who has been in the village for most of his life, is also deeply entangled at this moment.
This homestead is not ordinary land. It carries the memory and sweat of several generations of Lao Zhang's family, and is the "lifeblood" in the hearts of rural people. When he was a child, Lao Zhang followed his grandfather to work in the fields, and at that time, he looked at the green rice fields, and his heart was full of awe and love for this land. Now, this land is going to be left behind forever because of his decision.
But then again, the temptations in the city are not small. Lao Zhang's nephew is very prosperous in the city, showing off the high-rise buildings and busy traffic in the city every time he comes home. Lao Zhang's heart was also itching, thinking that it would be great if he could also have a home in the city! What's more, now the government still has bonus funds, which is simply a pie-in-the-sky thing!
However, there is a mystery behind this pie. Lao Zhang's son, Xiao Zhang, saw it more thoroughly. He told Lao Zhang: "Dad, this city life is not as simple as we imagined. Mortgages, living costs, and employment pressures are not easy. Besides, we have lived in the countryside for most of our lives, how can it be so easy to adapt to the rhythm of urban life all at once? ”
Xiao Zhang's words made Lao Zhang fall into deep thought. Yes, although this city life is glamorous, who knows the hardships behind it? What's more, once you give up the homestead, it means that you lose all contact with the land forever. That's Lao Zhang's roots!
Just when Lao Zhang was hesitating, the villagers also began to discuss. Some feel that this is a good opportunity and should be seized; Others feel that the risk is too great to be worth the risk. Lao Zhang walked around the village and found that everyone had different opinions.
The online discussion is even more lively. Some netizens said: "This policy is good! Let farmers enjoy city life too! Some netizens retorted: "What kind of enjoyment is this? It's clearly a pit farmer! How can city life be so easy? ”
Lao Zhang looked at these discussions, and his heart became even more conflicted. He didn't know who he should listen to, and he didn't know how he should choose.
At this moment, Lao Zhang remembered what his grandfather said to him before he died: "Baby, this land is our root and our life." No matter what time it is, you can't forget it. Lao Zhang's heart trembled, and he suddenly understood his choice.
He picked up his pen and wrote the word "disagree" on the policy paper. Then, he walked out of the house, took a deep breath of fresh air, and looked at the familiar field, his heart full of steadfastness and satisfaction.
Lao Zhang knew that he had made the right choice. Although he gave up the temptation of the city, he kept his roots and soul. He believes that as long as the land is there, his home is there.
And this story also gives us a profound enlightenment: on the road of pursuing a better life, we should not blindly pursue the prosperity and glamour on the surface, but should cherish and protect those things that truly belong to us. Because those seemingly ordinary things often contain the deepest emotions and the most precious values.
