Visiting friends in the Jinsha countryside of Yongding, I learned that this small village is the hometown of Zhang Dingcheng, many years ago, the Jinsha Middle School building that had been relocated and merged in the village was secluded as the "Yongding Riot Exhibition Hall" and the "Zhang Dingcheng Memorial Hall", the two museums are dependent on each other, just like junior high school and high school, we will stop by to browse the past of the agrarian revolution in the countryside.
It was early winter, the scenery of the autumn harvest was still strong, in the open space outside the memorial hall, the traditional bamboo mats were densely paved with grains that had just been harvested, this agricultural work I had done forty years ago, very familiar, there was always grain dust when turning over the sun, and the grain thorns were attached to its itch. In front of the original manual work process is completely the same, there is a hen leading the flock of chickens to walk and forage for food, as if in the old days, the farm is bitter, the farmhouse, kind and low-carbon.
Although the relationship between western Fujian and our Xiamen University is very deep, sometimes even difficult to understand, but here to see the old principal Wang Yanan's very sunny lens, or somewhat unexpected: on this bright black-and-white photo, the two top founding fathers of western Fujian, Zhang Dingcheng and Deng Zihui, and the translators of "Capital" Wang Yanan smiled very naturally, Zhongshan suits and suits are equally dashing, Yongding people and Hubei people are as beautiful, facing the rising sun of the republic, the three people have a feeling of spring breeze. The background of the photo is the "Nanguang Building" in the South Building Group of Xiamen University, which is judged to be about 1953, hehe, this photo should be the same age as me, this may be fate? And more than half of the people in Yongding and Hubei who came to meet us, "thousands of miles to meet" This is definitely a fate!
I have authored "Furong Lake Essay" and "Xiamen University Love" and other lyrical alma mater past and present anthology, I have been very careful about the history of Xiamen University all kinds of albums and exhibition documents, but never seen this precious photo, perhaps this is also an unexpected "discovery", a "historical invitation" in front of the mountain in front of the West Fujian Rim, this year is the 100th anniversary of Xiamen University, put this smiling lens on my WeChat public account, this "instant forever" invite back to the background of the original place, let the people who care about and pay attention to Xiamen University and Western Fujian open their eyes together.
