- "Water baby, water baby~"
"Do you know the two brothers Li Erwa and Li Sanwa from Lijiacun?"
"I know, I know, we are not far away. The two brothers are also very good now. They have thousands of acres of land, and they also go into the mountains to hunt and collect ginseng."
"Yes, they are my sons. How are my grandsons doing now?"
"Li Liang, Li Ming, Li Guang, and Li Zheng are all doing well now. Li is studying in the capital. Li Ming and Li Liang have married wives and have sons. Li Guang seems to have gone to the seaport of Heilongjiang. The shipyard over there is doing some work."
"Haha, right, come on, come on, try my dates, they're so sweet."
When Old Man Li heard this, he quickly grabbed a lot of fresh dates from his old wife and stuffed them into Qiu Kaiwen's hand.
"How is it over there in Liaodong?"
"It's not clear what everyone said in the letter. You can tell us about it."
Many old ladies and grandfathers surrounded Qiu Kaiwen, asking endless questions.
"Liaodong is a good place."
"The land there is very flat. When you look over it, you can see the endless plains, unlike here where there are thousands of ravines and ravines, and the roads are difficult to walk."
"And the land there is very fertile. It's all black soil. Everything grows well. You don't need to worry about planting wheat. You can just use a harvester to harvest."
¡°Also, there is water everywhere, so you don¡¯t have to worry about drinking water.¡±
"Everyone has immigrated here, and basically every household is similar. Life is very easy. Every household has thousands of acres of land. You can't even eat all the food that comes out of it. You can't sell it every year." The one with a little money."
"But it's really cold in winter. Cats are basically at home during winter."
Qiu Kaiwen also talked about the situation in Liaodong in detail, which made many people who had children immigrate to Liaodong listen with interest.
Although it has already been mentioned in the letter, it is still very interesting to listen to Qiu Kaiwen talk about it.
"As long as you live a good life, it's fine as long as you live a good life."
After hearing this, the old ladies and grandfathers around also nodded.
"We are so poor and miserable here that even drinking water is a problem."
"In the past, when we were cultivating some land, we faced the loess and turned our backs to the sky. We were so busy that we couldn't even eat a few full meals at the end of the year. Life was really difficult."
"Isn't that right? In the past, every household was starving and dizzy during winter. It was very painful."
"It's good to immigrate here, it's good to immigrate here."
¡°Having enough food, warm clothes, and books for children to read is how people live their lives.¡±
Everyone nodded while listening.
¡°In the past, if we talked about emigrating, it would be hard to leave our homeland. Even if we were suffering, we would have to suffer in the land of the Loess Plateau. At this time hxjxs.*com Zhang Si
But later, as more and more people immigrated, those who immigrated quickly lived a good life, leading more and more people to emigrate. As long as they could walk on the entire Loess Plateau, they were basically gone. These elderly people are left here. They really can't walk and don't want to leave.
"Old man, how are you doing in your hometown?"
Qiu Kaiwen looked at the table of dates, pastries, dried sweet potatoes, peanuts, beans, etc. on the table. He could feel everyone's enthusiasm and asked about the situation in his hometown.
¡°Life is easy now~¡±
When Old Man Zhang heard this, he quickly said: "Basically all the young people who can leave have left, and no one is cultivating the land here anymore. Those of us who stay, life is much better."
"Just plant some good land, corn, sweet potatoes, wheat, etc., and you don't have to worry about food."
"Isn't that right? How can we eat them all? There is a whole room of corn and sweet potatoes in my house and no one eats them."
"Yes, yes, life is better now."
"In the past, everyone was scrambling to plant the land, and the landlords, Lao Cai, tried their best to raise the rent. Now they are given to us to plant, but we don't plant it anymore. No one can plant it anymore. The focus is on corn, sweet potatoes, etc., as long as they are enough to eat. People who are almost buried.¡±
"I went back to Wangjiazhuang a few days ago. Alas, the entire Wangjiazhuang is deserted, and the houses are covered with grass."
"The same is true in our Lijia Village. Only me and a few old people are left here,"There's no one around all day long. "
¡°I don¡¯t have any worries about life. I just miss my children and my grandson.¡±
"What's the use of thinking about it? It's too far away and I can't see it. I just want to know that they are living a good life. We have a bunch of old bones, so we might as well bury them in this yellow soil."
The old people told each other about things in their hometown.
Qiu Kaiwen listened carefully and heard a lot of loneliness in the old people's words.
These old people are unwilling to leave their hometown, but choose to stay here.
Most of the young people here have gone out, and only a few young people stay here. The old people don¡¯t have to worry about eating and drinking, but they just miss their sons and grandsons.
There is no way, this is also a problem that immigration will inevitably bring about. The separation of the elderly and their children brings many problems. The elderly have no one to take care of them and can only take care of each other. They miss their children and granddaughters but cannot see them. Therefore, seeing Qiu Kaiwen When the baby was born, everyone was very happy and enthusiastic, as if they saw their grandson coming back.
This is just like the left-behind elderly people in rural areas in later generations. They basically have no worries about food and drink. The only thing they miss is their children and granddaughters, but they don¡¯t see them a few times throughout the year. Zhida z.com Zhixiao
Usually when young people come back, the old people in the village will come over to have a look and chat about anything.
The left-behind elderly people in future generations can at least see their children and grandchildren during the Chinese New Year and holidays, and can also make phone calls in normal times.
For these old people in the Loess Plateau, they may never see their children and grandchildren in their lifetime. They usually only exchange letters. They are far apart and may never see each other again until they die.

This is also the reason why the ancients were very reluctant to leave their homeland. On the one hand, it is difficult to leave their homeland, and it would be very difficult to start life again in a new place.
Another aspect is that filial piety has been valued since ancient times. If parents do not travel far away, let alone immigrate, it would be very unfilial for parents and children to be separated from each other and not even be able to provide for them until they die.
But the Loess Plateau is indeed too poor, and the people who immigrated have indeed lived a good life, which has led more people to immigrate. Many old people have also followed, and the old people who stayed behind are unwilling to go out. .
"My hometown has also changed a lot. It used to be a loess land and there weren't many trees. But now it's different. There are vegetation everywhere."
Qiu Kaiwen looked lonely and sad when he saw everyone chatting, so he quickly changed the topic.
"Isn't that right? In the past, all the trees had to be cut down for cooking, building houses, etc., and even the grass had to be gnawed away by the sheep." #121iwx.com 读牺
"It's different now. All the people have left, and even the villages are basically deserted. This is Panlong Town, which is where we old men and women are still here."
"In the village, there is no one there anymore, everything is deserted, the land is deserted."
"No one has cut down the trees, and no one has raised the sheep. It has only been more than ten years, and there are barren mountains and ridges everywhere."
"Isn't that right? It's very dangerous in the village now. When I went back to the village some time ago, I heard the howling of wolves. We haven't had wolves here for many years. I didn't expect that there are wolves again now." hou zongyiwx .com Zhang Si
"It's not just a wolf. I only saw the wild yellow sheep when I was a child. There were few people at that time. Emperor Taizu had just driven the Mongolian Tatars back to the grassland within a few decades."
"It was very much like now. There were no people everywhere, and there were barren mountains and ridges everywhere, with lush vegetation and a lot of yellow sheep."
"It's just that later on, there were more and more people, and there were fewer and fewer yellow sheep. I didn't expect that only a dozen years later, it would be back to that time. The yellow sheep were all in groups, and wolves were attracted. The group is here.¡±
There was a very old man who recalled what happened when he was a child. He was actually born during the period of Emperor Taizu.
"There are fewer people now than at that time. With fewer people, the mountains have become greener, and when it rains, the water is clearer."
"No one is planting the fields anymore. How can this mountain not be green? When the vegetation grows, no one cuts it down."
¡°If you ask me, it¡¯s better than before when there were a lot of people and it was lively.¡±
"It was such a waste at that time. Everyone was so poor, they didn't have enough to eat, and they gnawed the bark of trees every year. What good was that?"
"Yes, yes, if you want me to say, it's better now." Zhida z.com Zhixiao
"It's good to go out, it's good to go out. Everyone has enough to eat, warm clothes, money in their hands, and life is good."
¡°It¡¯s just, that¡¯s right, I used to be so poor that I couldn¡¯t even eat enough to eat. What¡¯s so good about it? Look at it now, everyone can sit and chat. It¡¯s a good life in this small life.¡±
Qiu Kaiwen quietly listened to the arguments of the old people around him, and began to think in his mind, is this good or not?
