Reading the story "A Bag of Dry Food"
Zhang Fan, Class Two, Grade Four
During the Long March, one touching story after another happened, and one I know better is called "A Bag of Dry Food". It tells the story of Xiaolan, a 13-year-old Red Army boy, who finally got a bag of dry food when he was marching with the army, but accidentally dropped his bag of dry food into the river and washed it away while crossing a bridge to take care of a wounded man. She insisted on not telling them because everyone had enough dry food to eat. In order to pretend that nothing happened, she pulled out a lot of wild vegetables and stuffed them into her satchel, which was bulging. Soon her health was failing. Only after the head nurse found out that she was eating wild vegetables and "dry food" in her satchel did everyone know the truth of the matter, so everyone gave her a little dry food, which made her feel the warmth of home ... Although the story is small, the connotation is not small. These little details and stories can reflect the excellent qualities of the Red Army soldiers-not afraid of hardship, strong, selfless and enthusiastic ... Xiaolan, who is only a 13-year-old girl, has a strong will like a boy; But you know how to be considerate of others. When she has no food, she can reach out and ask her comrades for some. She didn't do this. She chose silence and didn't tell anyone. At this moment, she only thought about the interests of her comrades and ignored her own difficulties. For the seriously injured, she could have left them to fend for themselves, but she didn't. She took good care of a wounded person without complaint or regret. A Xiaolan is still like this. It is conceivable that the quality of my great Red Army team has changed < P >. This story happened many years ago when my uncle of the Red Army was on the Long March.
In the hospital of the Red Army, there is a little Red Army named Xiaolan. Xiaolan is only 13 years old. Her father and mother were forced to death by the landlord, and she was dragged to work by the landlord, who exploited and abused her. Later, when the Red Army came, Xiaolan ran to the army and said that she would never leave the Red Army.
During the Long March of the Red Army, Xiaolan followed the troops into the grassland.
When it comes to grass, children will definitely think of the lawn with green grass in the park, which is flat and beautiful. The grassland where Uncle Red Army lived was not like that, it was extremely desolate. The ground is nothing but weeds and mud pits, and you can't walk for dozens of days. I couldn't see a house or a common people along the way. Only a few eagles are flying in the sky.
on this day, walking, a small village appeared in front. Uncle Red Army was so happy when he saw it. Xiaolan is also happy to jump and jump. With the village, we can find food.
When the troops entered the village, Xiaolan arranged the sick and wounded, and took the rice bag to find food. But there is no one in the village.
Xiao Lan was walking in the village and saw a threshing floor. There is a pile of wheat straw on the field, and there are no clean wheat grains on it. She beat and turned the wheat straw, turned and beat it, and picked it up one by one. It's always less than a small bowl. How many meals can I eat with this? No, we still have to find it! Xiaolan had just walked not far when she met a big Red Army man, carrying a bag of heavy things.
Xiao Lan looks at it. Hey, isn't this the big man who was injured in our hospital? Xiaolan asked quickly:
"Hey, where did you get so much food?"
The big Red Army put down his pocket and said, "Hey, it's Xiaolan. I dug up this grain in the landlord's yard. How much food have you found? "
Xiaolan stretched out her pocket and said, "Well, here they are!"
The big Red Army took the rice bag and weighed it. He smiled and said, "Xiaolan, I heard that it will take more than 2 days to walk on the grass, and this wheat is not enough!"
"look for it tomorrow!"
"Come on, give you some of mine!"
He said, holding the wheat and putting it in Xiaolan's rice bag. Xiaolan quickly hid the rice bag behind her back, shook her hand and said,
"No, there are many of you, and you don't have enough to eat."
The big Red Army, with a long arm, grabbed the rice bag and poured it in, saying kindly,
"It doesn't matter, if we each eat less, we will save it."
Xiaolan found some wheat elsewhere, fried it, ground it into wheat flour and put it in a rice bag. I thought: I'll eat a handful of these wheat flour at a time, and then pick some wild weeds and vegetables. I can eat it for 2 days and get out of the grass. Yes! And save a little for the sick and wounded.
the next morning, the troops set out.
Xiaolan helped the wounded, followed the troops and walked forward carefully. Walking, a small river appeared in front, and a bridge was temporarily built on the river. The river under the bridge was flowing.
Xiaolan put the rice bag on her shoulder, held the wounded tightly and said, "Comrade, it's time to cross the bridge. Go slowly!"
who knows, when he walked to the middle of the bridge, the wounded man suddenly coughed, his face flushed, his body trembled, his feet slipped and his body tilted, and Xiaolan quickly tried to hold him. But the bag of wheat flour on Xiaolan's shoulder fell into the river. The rice bag rolled a few times in the water and washed away.
Xiaolan was stunned. She whispered,
"Oh, what can I do?"
The wounded man looked at the river and became stupefied, so he asked,
"Xiaolan, what fell into the river?"
Xiaolan shook her head at once: "No, nothing is missing. Let's go! "
At this moment, the nurse came from behind. Xiaolan told her that the wounded man had a bad cough. The head nurse put his hands on the wounded and said,
"OK, go to the front and see a doctor."
When she saw that Xiaolan seemed to have something wrong, she asked,
"Xiaolan, what's the matter? Is it uncomfortable? "
"no. Hmm ... "
Xiaolan took back what she had just said. She thought, you can't say anything about losing the rice bag. If comrades knew, they would definitely give me their own food. Everyone has very little food. How can I eat theirs? No, I want to insist!
the nurse is gone. Xiaolan quickly pulled out a lot of weeds and put them in her satchel. She stuffed the satchel as if it were real food.
in the evening, the troops rested. Xiaolan was afraid that everyone would see her eating weeds, so she ran to change the dressing and wash the bandage for the wounded. She didn't cook weeds until everyone had finished eating and had a rest.
After a few days like this, Xiaolan's health will fail. I often have diarrhea, my hair is dizzy, my legs are soft, and I have no energy at all. One day, she was walking and fell to the ground, knowing nothing. When she woke up, she found the nurse-in-charge carrying her back.
The head nurse is over 4 years old. These days, like everyone else, she eats weeds and wheat flour and is very weak. She carried Xiaolan on her back, her face was dripping with sweat as big as a bean, and her mouth was panting, and she staggered forward.
Xiaolan woke up and said, "Nurse, I can walk by myself. Please let me down!"
it took a long time for the nurse to put her down. Xiaolan gritted her teeth and insisted on coming to the evening. After everyone had a rest, she hid aside and cooked weeds to eat.
At this moment, the nurse came over with a smile: "Xiao Lan, are you better?" Hey, why are you hiding here and cooking? "
Xiaolan quickly covered the porcelain jar with her hand: "I cooked something to eat and won't let you see it!" "
"ok! I don't watch. "
The head nurse said this, and when Xiaolan wasn't looking, she snatched the porcelain jar and saw, "Oh, Xiaolan, why do you just eat weeds without adding wheat flour?"
"It's a long way to go, so eat slowly!"
"where's your rice bag?"
Xiaolan patted the bag and said, "Isn't it?"
The nurse-in-charge asked strangely, "Why did you put it in your satchel?"
"There is a hole in the rice bag, lest the wheat flour leak out!"
"bring it! I'll sew for you. "
With that, the nurse grabbed Xiaolan's satchel and opened it. It was full of weeds. She froze.
"Xiao Lan, where's your wheat flour?"
Xiaolan saw that the nurse-in-charge was so concerned about her and wanted to talk, but her throat seemed blocked, and she couldn't say a word, and tears came down. After a while, she told the head nurse about the loss of food.
The nurse-in-charge said, "Oh, Xiaolan, why didn't you tell me earlier? We take part in the revolution together, just like brothers and sisters. You have no food, everyone should help you! "
With that, the nurse took a handful of wheat flour from her rice bag and put it in Xiaolan's jar.
"You eat first, and I'll report to the chief right away."
In a short time, Xiaolan's loss of food spread like a gust of wind. Comrades immediately came up with rice bags, and you put them in Xiaolan's satchel one by one. Xiaolan waved her hand and said,
"No, no, thank you ..."
At this moment, the wounded man came over with a cane and took some food, and said excitedly,
"Xiaolan, you lost the food to save me. You must accept my share. "
The comrades all said, "Xiao Lan, you can have it. No matter how difficult it is, we have to take your little Red Army out of the grass. "
Xiao Lan was so moved that she couldn't say a word that she had to accept everyone's food.
Xiao Lan couldn't sleep that night. I remember being exploited, beaten and scolded in the landlord's house when I was a child. If I hadn't found the * * * production party, I would have died. After joining the Red Army, I received much help and education from the leaders and comrades, and I learned much revolutionary truth!
Xiaolan secretly made up her mind that she must always listen to the Party and always follow the Party!
