Every day when I come to Taidi Village, Feng Ming Town, Yunyang County, I am moved by the vibrant atmosphere, charming scenery, clean village, pure folk customs and hardworking and kind villagers here. There is no mahjong, no fighting, only earth-shattering stories of villagers helping each other, respecting the old and loving the young, being honest and trustworthy, getting rich through hard work and loving couples.
First, Zhang helps others.
Family precepts: Be virtuous and do more good deeds.
Zhang, 78 years old, was the former branch secretary of Taidi Village, old party member. Zhang's father has been helpful and friendly to people all his life. Whether talking with villagers or educating children, Bird often said: "Be a good person and do more good deeds!"
During his tenure as Party branch secretary, Zhang inherited his father's family motto of "be a virtuous person and do more good deeds". He never fooled anyone and never hurt anyone, so the villagers nicknamed him Zhang Tianliang. Zhang not only inherited his father's kind nature, but also brought his father's spirit of helping others to the extreme. No matter which family in the village has something to do, he is always the first to go to the scene. One year, neighbor Hu suddenly fell ill in the middle of the night. Zhang felt dark and hurried to the township health center for a doctor. After the diagnosis, the doctor quietly told him that if he slowed down half a step, Hu would die.
For the old, the weak and the sick, Zhang is even more caring. Neighbor Hu Laoniang is over 80 years old, and her children are working outside. She is alone at home, thanks to Zhang's help. Every morning, noon and evening, Zhang goes to Hu's house to be caring and attentive. Every day after dinner, Mr. Zhang will invite Mrs. Hu to go out for a walk, send her home when she comes back, and then go back to her home.
Driven by Zhang, the neighbors are ready to help others. No matter who is in trouble, the whole village will spare no effort to help.
Second, honest and trustworthy Huang
Family precepts: Starving people to death is a trivial matter, but breaking promises is a major matter.
Huang's ancestors once borrowed a bucket of rice from their neighbors during the spring drought and promised to return it when it was ripe. As we all know, there was a drought and a bumper harvest of rice that year, and there was not much left after paying the land rent. If you return that bucket of rice, your family may starve to death. If you don't return it, you will lose your credit. Besides, the neighbors are waiting for that meal to live. After a fierce ideological struggle, our ancestor Huang returned his neighbor's rice. Some people laugh at his stupidity. He said: starving people is a small matter, but breaking promises is a big matter.
From then on, the Huang family took this sentence as a family motto and passed it down from generation to generation. When Huang's father Huang was alive, he often used this story to educate him. Huang kept this sentence in mind and put it into practice.
Last year, Huang and 23 farmers jointly initiated the establishment of this company, and borrowed more than 8 million yuan from Chongqing Bank to develop the pig industry. When the loan was due, one of them lost 500 thousand. What shall we do? If everyone cares only about himself, then 23 families will lose their credit at the same time. Bearing in mind the family precepts exchanged by ancestors with their lives, Huang took the lead in paying more than 20,000 yuan, and at the same time called on other 2 1 families to act together, and finally collected a huge sum of 500,000 yuan. So everyone's credit is saved.
Third, brothers Liu Yuanzhou and Liu Yuanping who are filial to the elderly and love their loved ones.
Family training: filial piety to the elderly, sister-in-law and harmonious family style, we should use hemp thread to play sandals, passed down from generation to generation.
Speaking of Liu Yuanzhou and Liu Yuanping, brothers of Group 4 in Taidi Village, everyone in Feng Ming Town knows. For decades, two families have lived under the same roof. Not only have the two sisters-in-law never said an angry word, but they have never been popular once. Even the children of the two families have never said a word of anger, and they have never been popular once. Neighbors said that their two families are as good as one. In terms of filial piety to the elderly, the two families are well-known.
When Liu Yuanzhou and Liu Yuanping's parents were alive, there was no explicit provision on how much rations and pocket money the two brothers gave them each year. But during the autumn harvest, the two brothers always rush to fill their parents' cupboards first, and the rest are their own. The money earned by the two families always satisfies the elderly first, and the rest is their own.
When Liu Yuanzhou and Liu Yuanping's father died, they said to their children: You are filial to the elderly and have a harmonious sister-in-law. Such a good atmosphere should be passed down from generation to generation. Their mother said something similar when she died.
Parents' last words, Liu Yuanzhou and Liu Yuanping, two brothers, take it as family instruction and teach their children by example. Now Liu Yuanzhou and Liu Yuanping's children, who earn money outside, always pay their parents' accounts first, and then their parents can't use them up before they have them. Liu respects the elderly and has a harmonious sister-in-law. This good family style is being faithfully handed down from generation to generation.
Fourth, never give up.
Family training: monogamy, as long as the other person has breath, you can't give up.
Four years ago, Xie's husband, Ann, accidentally fell down, causing paraplegia below the cervical vertebra and immobility of his limbs. His only function is that his mouth can still talk. Eat and drink water to feed; Urine incontinence, changing diapers several times a day; When defecating, outsiders need to carefully dig it out with their hands; In order to avoid bedsores, turn over or massage him every three hours, day and night. The doctor asserted that Peng Yi could live for three years at most.
At that time, Xie, who was only 45 years old, was advised to find a suitable family and fly away. Xie never gave up her husband. She said, "I won't leave this house. As long as he is alive, this family is complete. Why should I get married? "
Xie's mother also said: "Between husband and wife, as long as the other side has a breath, they can't give up."
Xie kept this sentence of his mother in mind as a family precept, and while serving her husband, she relied on farming to support her family.
Now four years later, Peng Yi 'an is not only alive, but also alive and well, even without bedsores.
Xie hasn't added a new dress in the past four years. Her husband who was paralyzed in bed wanted to watch TV, so she immediately bought him a big color TV. As soon as fresh fruit comes on the market, she will buy a lot for her husband. Peng Yi 'an thinks that fresh fruit is too expensive, which wastes money and sometimes makes her very angry.
When Peng Yi 'an had an accident, his daughter was married and his son was in high school. Now, my son has gone out to work after graduating from high school. When educating children, Xie always asks them not to regret or give up once they have settled down!
5. Zhang Dingping, who is hardworking and rich.
Family precepts: Diligence, food and clothing are still there.
Thirty-six years ago, 12-year-old Zhang Dingping suffered a disaster at home. His house was destroyed by the mudslide and his food was buried. Zhang Fu, who has nothing, gave Zhang Dingping a sentence that his father often used to educate him: "I will let you live, you go outside to survive." Diligent and diligent, food and clothing are still there. Wherever you go, as long as you are diligent, you will not go hungry! "
Zhang Dingping came to Hubei to help people feed pigs with the family motto of "being diligent and having no worries about food and clothing", with a monthly salary of 15 yuan. Eight years later, Zhang Dingping returned to Taidi Village empty-handed.
After the Spring Festival, he followed his neighbor to Fujian Stone Factory, with a monthly salary of 150 yuan. He feels satisfied. His salary as a student is higher than that of college students in the factory. Zhang Dingping continued to carry forward the spirit of struggle, from one person to see a stone cutter to two, three or four. The monthly salary has also increased from 150 to 1500 yuan. Thanks to Zhang Dingping's efforts, eight years later, the boss contracted the factory to him, and he dug the first bucket of gold in his life. After fifteen years of accumulation, Zhang Dingping has become a typical example of Taidi Village's hard work and wealth.
Zhang Dingping made a fortune, but he didn't forget his hometown folks. Five years ago, he returned to his hometown and founded a stone factory. Now the stone he produces is mainly sold to Jiangsu, Hubei, Fujian and other provinces and cities with an annual output value of more than 5 million yuan.
Zhang Dingping summed up his life and said that his success was mainly due to the family motto passed down from generation to generation: be diligent and have no worries about food and clothing.
