Hongdong root search village
you could have found it in the past. On the morning of April 21st, when the reporter came to the village of Da Zhang village and inquired about Zhang Shunfeng, who wrote the village chronicles, the roadside villagers immediately warmly directed.
I have been a lifelong Chinese teacher in Da Zhang primary school. After 15 years of retirement, I have taught children calligraphy for free for three hundred or four hundred years. Besides, I have compiled village records here two years ago. You see, this is the book! Zhang Shunfeng, as the old man took out "the big village" from the cupboard, told reporters that he wanted to write the village at his own expense, from a Ji'nan old leader said to him at a meeting in March 2012. The old leader said he was a cultural man, and the village was near the Jinan Yaoqiang International Airport. It was not allowed to carry out the old village transformation in one year. He hoped that he would write a local chronicle and record the history of the village under the circumstances of his physical conditions.
I remember the words of the old leader. Since 2013, I began to collect the history of the village, the changes and the materials of the villagers, and verify them one by one. Zhang Shunfeng said, in the past two years, he put a lot of energy into it. More than 30 trips to the city, sometimes to find out the prominent contribution of the native village to the community, sometimes consult the archives and the materials provided by the relevant departments to understand the changes in the village environment and so on, during which more than 300 ball pen cores have been used. In checking the origin of the village, he also went to Hongdong County of Shanxi province to find roots and ask his ancestors.
wrote village records two times of hospitalization
. I encountered many difficulties in compiling village records. Zhang Shunfeng old man said, he is most sad, because his health is not good, and carsick, every car out of the survey should bring anti dizziness drugs and Kyushin Pills. When he came to the downtown area, he happened to forget the two drugs. The result was uncomfortable on the way. He took a three minute walk to get home.
because of poor health, Zhang Shunfeng later fell down several times and was hospitalized. In order to realize his commitment, he ignored the disease and continued to work day after day. As a result, he was admitted to the hospital last year and was diagnosed as myocardial infarction and cerebral infarction. At this time, his family really could not see it, saying nothing was allowed to write again. But after taking a month's rest, he picked up his pen, but unfortunately he was admitted to the hospital again.
Zhang Shunfeng said he had known his first hospital stay. The second hospitalization, when not serious, he secretly wrote a little when he was free. But later, it was discovered by the doctor that the material was confiscated and the manuscript was burned by the nurse.
nurses are also worried about my body, but I feel anxious, there is no way. The old man said that, as the manuscript was burned, he told his grandson that if he did not complete the village, his grandson had to finish it instead of him, because it was a history for the descendants of his children.
reporter saw that in this village, it is also described that there is a film wall left over a bay in the west of the village, which was built in the spring of 1924 and has a history of 91 years ago. Most of the old buildings in our village were destroyed, and this wall remained. Zhang Shunfeng came to the scene with reporters. The shadow wall was about 11.6 meters long, 6 meters high and 0.6 meters wide, with a portrait of Mao Zedong on it.
unfortunately, because of lack of funds, the village spirit, which condensed Zhang Shunfeng's old man's heart, only printed 5 copies. The reporter learned from Ji'nan Shi Zhi office that in recent years, there have been dozens of village records in every county and city of Ji'nan City, and Zhang Shun Feng's "big village Chronicles" is one of the least imprinted ones. From the significance of philology and version, the village chronicles are of great value.
