Old Zhang was a hardworking farmer who toiled diligently, hoping for a good harvest in autumn. However, this year, the weather was unkind, and a prolonged drought resulted in a complete crop failure. Old Zhang was deeply worried about this. He could not sleep at night and often sat alone on the ridge of the field, gazing at the cracked land, sighing. He was worried about the poor harvest, unable to repay his loans, and even more worried about how his family would live next year. Other people in the village were the same, all facing the same predicament, the whole village was shrouded in a cloud of gloom. Old Zhang tried to seek help from the government, but the response made him even more distraught. However, Old Zhang did not give up. He firmly believed that as long as he persisted in his efforts, he would eventually overcome the difficulties. He began to actively learn new agricultural techniques, hoping for a change next year. He participated in training courses organized by the government, learning advanced planting methods and actively exchanging experiences and sharing insights with other farmers. Day by day, Old Zhang's worries gradually decreased, and he began to feel hopeful about the future. With the joint efforts of the government and the villagers, the village gradually regained its vitality. Old Zhang also had a bumper harvest the following year, not only repaying his loans but also improving his family's living conditions, and from then on lived a happy life.
