Recall my childhood as if it were yesterday.
My childhood, without the rich conditions of modern people, without enough food and gorgeous clothes, was a difficult time. I'm busy all year round and don't know where to go.
At that time, it was the late Cultural Revolution. The great banner of "Agricultural Dazhai" was planted all over the mountains and rivers of Wan Li, and the slogan of "grasping revolution and promoting production" resounded for nine days. In order to respond to the call of the party and the country, every spring, the school should take a "busy farming" holiday to support the production team to sow spring seeds.
I was too young to do other farm work at that time. I can only plant it step by step. Although these tasks are not heavy, when marching in the dusty field with strong spring breeze, sometimes your face will be blown to death, and if your clothes are not covered properly, some parts of your body will tremble and your teeth will creak from time to time.
In summer and July, the school will let students support the "three summers" production.
Our village is a famous Luma producing area in Changzhi County. In a plot in Ma Pingchuan, most plots should be planted with Luma, a cash crop, to increase the collective income. From sowing to harvesting to peeling, the process in Ma Lu is very complicated.
During this time, every household will go all out. Adults can cut hemp, villains can pull small hemp, women can cut hemp, and old people can tie hemp. Finally, bundles of raw hemp will be carried to the edge of the retting pool and piled up. At this time, the captain will order the strong man with retting experience to put the original hemp into the retting pool in an orderly way, take it out of the pool after retting for a few days, and dry it in strong sunlight.
Drying is a meticulous job. Every day at noon, the production team leader will arrange one or two little people to turn hemp in the field. At noon, when the sun was shining, I was hungry and sweaty, and the bitterness of sweat was intertwined with the rancid smell of retting. Besides, I was young and weak, and it was really painful.
It is autumn here. Autumn is a harvest season and a busy season. A bumper harvest is in sight, not only for farmers to support national construction, but also for * * *' s successor. At that time, the school will naturally give students a holiday of "busy farming in Sanqiu" to win a bumper harvest of the production revolution and make contributions to the realization of the "Outline", crossing the Yellow River and the Yangtze River.
The captain of the third production team where I work is a tall man with a loud voice, strong tone and strong command ability. The "production corps" led by him is very obedient to his command. In other words, wherever he points, the army will fight there. At that time, my farm work was mainly to spread corn, sorghum and soybeans, or to load cars. Sometimes compared with my peers, my work speed is a little slow, and I am criticized by the team leader.
In winter, Yuan Ye is covered with snow. At this time, my childhood was the happiest My friends and I will skate in the river ditch, imitate scouts on the mountain, hide cats and dogs in front of and behind the house, swing and climb the wall; Pushing iron hoops, smashing almonds, packing, and doing somersaults in the streets and alleys ... had fun. At that time, happiness diluted the hardships, the drama cleared up the dullness, the winter sun shone on the frozen earth, and the laughter like a bell floated from near to far in childhood.
The past is gone, life is short, flowers bloom and fall, and childhood is gone forever.
Today, we are advancing in a great new era and enjoying a prosperous new life. We should cherish today's new era and new life, never forget the hard times, embrace a better tomorrow, and chase sunshine and dreams on the horizon where the sun rises every day.
