My hometown is the countryside, and earth-shaking changes have taken place in recent years. Walking in the street at night, the street is very clean, and the street lamps on both sides of the street shine like pearls, which is very beautiful. Cars come and go, and there is an endless stream. The shop is very lively, and there are all kinds of snacks on the shelves. I also heard my uncle in my hometown say: "In the past, there were many people and few people here, and dry land crops such as peanuts and soybeans were planted in the mountains. Now everyone responds to the party's call to return farmland to forests. In the past, farmers could not see meat in their dishes, and they ate pickles and radishes for three meals a day. Now you can eat fresh meat every day. Clothes are not the same as before. There are more clothes now. According to grandma, people used to make a living by farming, but the land was small and there were many people. Usually, after eating one meal, there is no food for the next meal, so they have to go hungry. There is only a narrow dirt road in front of the door. When it rains, things get difficult. People don't ride bicycles, but walk on their backs. Very difficult. Since the reform and opening up, people have gradually become rich. Isn't Anjiagou Scenic Area with green trees and red flowers a highlight of Zhangjiakou? There are lush forests, fragrant flowers, continuous mountains and crystal clear lakes, which are really refreshing!
My hometown is changing, and so is my motherland. I hope my hometown will become richer and my motherland will become richer!
