There are two families living at the entrance of my village, one is Uncle Yang's family, Uncle Yang was the village party secretary in the village, and his wife Aunt Zhang is known for being diligent and thrifty. The other is the Qian family, Uncle Qian is a small businessman, often extravagant and luxurious.
The vegetable garden in front of Uncle Yang's house is always full of vegetables from all seasons, and Aunt Zhang has been wearing the blue cloth dress from ten years ago, and every patch has witnessed the traces of time. She is never willing to buy new clothes, even if it is the New Year's holiday, she refurbishes the old clothes and wears them again. Their granaries are always full of old rice, and even in good harvest years, they are rarely seen eating a new meal.
In contrast, Uncle Qian's house is a different scene. Although Uncle Qian's small business income is unstable, he is always happy to enjoy it. The Qian family's dining table often has fresh fish and meat on the market, and his children have new clothes and shoes every year. Borrowing money has also become the norm in Uncle Qian's life, but he always says: "Money is for spending, and it's a good thing to make your family happy." ”
As time passed, Uncle Yang's health deteriorated, and Aunt Zhang began to become forgetful. Their children missed the opportunity to go to university because of their family's financial situation, and had to do odd jobs in the village. Some people secretly said that Uncle Yang's family lived like a wealthy landlord in the past, but they had to live a hard life.
The children of the Qian family successfully completed their studies, and although the family had debts, Uncle Qian could always find a way to turn around and create more possibilities for the children. Although the life of the Qian family fluctuates from time to time, the whole family is full of smiles.
Until one day, Uncle Yang's granary was tidied up, only to find that the rice inside was moldy and inedible. After experiencing several economic turmoil, the Qian family began to learn reasonable financial planning, and their lives became more stable.
The story of these two families is widely circulated in the village, and some people think that Uncle Yang's family is too frugal and misses a lot, and the Qian family's hedonism is too disregarding the future. However, in the end, everyone realizes that there is no absolute right or wrong in life, only the right way to live. The diversity of life values, like the houses of different colors in this mountain village, constitute the richness and diversity of this world.
