A Rural Life in the 70s

Several children are playing together, talking and laughing, busy, and the summer vacation is over, most of the time, as the weather turns cold, Happy summer life is coming to an end.

At this time, the school started early, and the village primary school was opened in August near the end of August. County town schools are not waiting until September, and most of them start school at the end of August.

On this day, Wu Geqin and Xiaoqiu Xiaoxia went to the ground to dig up two baskets of vegetables and came back to wash their hands and prepare to eat. However, there was a pair of yellow-skinned and thin-skinned father-in-law who came to the door, and the black-and-yellow man licked his body. According to the fence door, a bowl is held in the yard: "The big mother-in-law is doing well, there is the remaining sticky porridge and dry food, give it a bit... We have a big water in our hometown, and the children have not eaten for more than one day... ”

To be honest, Xiao Qiu had seen the door to ask for food in the last life. Later, the living conditions were good, and the begging for the meal gradually disappeared. Later, 乞丐 suddenly became a common ‘landscape’ in the bustling areas of major cities, all kinds of physical disabilities, family tragic... but no one wants to eat again, all the money is required.

After a long period of time, Xiaoqiu once again saw this kind of beggar, and for a moment he still felt that it was not true.

After all, Wu Ge and Qin Hao lived in the countryside for a short time. This is the first time I saw a person who came to the house to ask for food. Then I saw that this big one was skinny, unkempt, ragged... The visual impact was too strong. Suddenly, I couldn’t help but react.

Or Song Xiulian is good, sighs, and greets Xiaoqiu: "Autumn, go take his bowl, give them a bowl, and give them a roll."

These people are really begging for food. As they said, they are very satisfied with the food leftover. They accidentally got a bowl of rice porridge and a whole two-faced noodle. In the paper, Xiaoqiu gave two pieces of pickles. ... The father and the daughter were really happy. The man repeatedly bowed and bowed and thanked him. He took the niece and smashed his head. Then he took the porridge and the paper and did not go far. He sat back outside the Xiaoqiu home. , eat something.

Xiaoqiu saw through the fence that the child had bitten two big mouthfuls and swallowed hard, but he couldn’t get stuck. She quickly took a bowl and poured a half bowl of water. "You are hungry." Don't rush to eat dry food, dry a porridge and drink a few mouthfuls, then eat dry food."

The child's hair was dirty, and there was some grass clippings. He was stunned and covered with a large face.

When Xiaoqiu passed the water, the child jerked his eyes and looked at it. There was a pair of extremely bright and big eyes. In a flash, Xiaoqiu remembered the pair of 'big eyes' on a famous publicity photo. .

She took a moment and then returned to God. The child had already taken over the bowl and snorted and drank the water.

The father and the daughter were just the beginning, and then there were people who had to ask for food to go to the door to ask for food. These people have young men and women, but they are exhausted, thin and dirty, without exception.

The weather is getting cooler, and the summer vacation is finally over. The rest have not changed, but the foreigners who are begging for food have increased. Even the father and the daughter have once again appeared in the village.

Gradually, there was a relatively unified saying in the village. These people all fled from neighboring provinces. They had a lot of water in their hometown, flooded several counties, and died many individuals... Those who fled, Almost every family has died in the water.

Soon, the people in the team who were responsible for caring for the crops reported that the pods, corn, and potato sweet potatoes were being stolen more and more, and the target of theft was very clear, that is, the people who were around the village.

Four or five days before the start of the school, the bells sounded in the early morning in the village. The men and laborers of each household had put down their work and walked out of the house to gather in the brigade.

After a short meeting, the villagers returned home with anger. However, the day before yesterday, the militia and the displaced people responsible for guarding the crops had a positive conflict. One militia was beaten by the emigrants. The peanuts were smashed for most of them...

In this meeting, the brigade discussed the countermeasures and then informed the villagers. From this day on, the young and strong labor in the village was organized and went to the fields to see the crops. The crops that have been hard for half a year are harvested, but they have been stolen and ruined. The villagers naturally refused. Because these foods are also the rations of them and the children of the elderly. Losing these foods, the villagers will also go hungry, and even have to go out of their homes to go wandering for food.

Whether it is enough to eat a full stomach, or even whether it can survive, the contradictions are clear, and it will become more and more sharp and irreconcilable.

Those people went to the village to ask for food, but they couldn’t find it. Even many people will take them away, and even some people will put dogs...

Two days before the end of the summer vacation, Wang Liqun went to the commune and opened a meeting. He smiled and conveyed to the village with joy. The county and the commune had already understood the situation of the displaced people, and soon they would organize the militia forces and expel them. Refugees, let the people live a happy life.

Everyone raised their hands and said, and they talked and hoped that the militia would come as soon as possible, and those who stole food and hit people would be driven away, and they would have a calm and stable life.

Just this night, the militia came, Xiaoqiu a child, could not participate in this 'fight', she was only woken up by the **** in the village, and then listened to the shouts and hurried steps Sound... Lying in the eyes and lying for half a night.

Early the next morning, Wang Limin returned to his home with a tired footstep. Wang Limin, who was always optimistic, went home this day, and his face was a little laugh...

After eating breakfast, Xiaoqiu knew from the third brother Chenghe mouth what happened at night: the militia launched an action the night before, and the flusters rushed into the cornfield, and a man with a child slipped into the canal. Going inside...

When Cheng He finished, he realized that a young girl might be scared. She quickly explained: "Then, the adult fell in, the child was fine, and was taken away by the militia.... That adult is falling into the water. There will be no problem. The big channel looks at the water surface is quite wide, but it is not deep. I can squat back and forth!"

Xiaoqiu knew that the third brother was kindly comforted. She smiled and shook her head and said that she was fine. But my heart can't help but suffer. The third brother Chenghe himself is not convincing. His water is excellent, not to mention the same age. Most of the adults are not as good as him. What's more, the man is in a panic, but he is still unfamiliar with the waters. It is impossible to compare with the third brother who is relaxing in the water and familiar with the underwater situation.
