The famous writer Bing Xin old man said that childhood is a dream in the truth, the truth in the dream. But childhood for me, is a warm cup of coffee, evocative! Childhood is running on the banks of the Green River, childhood is a game in the alleys of the alley...
Time is like a white colt passing through the gap, hurrying by, trance like a dream of childhood, as if it was just yesterday, many past events, just like a movie, came to mind, although the childhood life was hard, but in the memory of my life, left many beautiful and happy memories. My skillful mother dressed up my childhood beautiful enough.
For a girl, the childhood memory, nothing more than that beautiful flower skirt, born in the 70s of the last century, the summer June 1 children's day program on the flower skirt is rare, at that time, whether boys or girls, most, summer even a piece of really good pants are rare, perhaps because I am the only girl in the family, I got the special favor of my parents, every summer skillful mother, always make me a beautiful flower skirt.
In the first grade of elementary school, the teacher rehearsed a program for us, and two boys and two girls performed dances, one of whom was me. I am in a big family of five brothers and sisters, and there is a grandmother who is often sick, my mother's busyness every day can be imagined, the next day is June Day, but my mother has not yet made my flower skirt, I am anxious to go home to urge my mother, my mother always said, "It is too late, it is too late." But my grandmother suddenly fell ill and was hospitalized, and my mother had to make me the flower dress on the morning of June Day. In order not to delay me to put on a beautiful skirt to perform the show, my mother paid sleep, got up early and stepped on the sewing machine to catch up with me to make a flower skirt, I put on a beautiful flower skirt, rushed to school, the teacher gave me makeup, the so-called makeup at that time was actually, a piece of red paper was put in the water to soak it, the two cheeks were red, and then the eyebrows were painted with a brush, and then a red dot was lit between the eyebrows, so I participated in the performance beautifully and spent a very happy Children's Day! In the fifth grade or even junior high school, my mother still made me a beautiful dress every year, but because the girls in the school rarely wore it, I was embarrassed to wear it again, sometimes it was too hot, and I had to make an appointment with my closest female companion, tomorrow we would wear a skirt together, right?
Mom is always my mother, not only dressed up my beautiful childhood, even after I got married she also changed a dress for me, the husband of a soldier in the field mailed me over, I did not wear it very well, my mother saw that the skirt was expensive and threw away the heartache, she carefully transformed the skirt for me, carefully ironed it with an iron, when I wore it out, the newly married neighbor's daughter-in-law praised the beauty, I said that the husband bought it, the mother changed it, and the result was the praise of "tut"! I envy that I have a skillful and patient and meticulous mother.
Years later, I watched the movie "Hello, Li Huanying" with my son, and when I saw the footage of Li Huanying sewing pants for my daughter Jia Ling, I burst into tears, my mother always loved her children like this, let us eat enough, wear warm clothes, and give us a happy and carefree childhood. Now think back to that June 1st Children's Day, the skirt is beautiful, the festival is happy, but the origin of the skirt is hard, we in the rural life, there is no economic resources, nothing more than the hard work of parents and mothers, hard-working, in exchange for our happy childhood.
Memory pulled back to that era, I always came home from school, can not find my mother, grandma told me, my mother went to the river to fish for iron sand, my father went out to do business, rice slipped in the pot, full and hurried to go to school, at that time tiesha two cents a pound, in my impression, my mother fished for iron sand money, gave us five tuition fees, even gave me a newly made skirt, for my brother and brother to buy new sandals, but also my mother worked hard to catch iron sand in exchange for money, plus dad worked hard to do business, our family built a wide and bright tile house early, I also bought a TV set early. The most important thing that can not be forgotten is that my mother in the process of fishing for iron sand, due to the collapse of the sand to smash the mother's waist, every time I think back, tears wet clothes, summer rain comes urgently, countless times the mother is drenched by the rain, carrying a bag of heavy iron sand into the door, sometimes suddenly the wind is strong, my little brother will cry and shout brother, go to meet the mother back, the wind will blow the mother away! When grandma was alive, she would sometimes choke up several times when she repeated her brother's words. In order to make our young life better, Mom and Dad paid an endless price! I remember that when I was a child, my brother and I brought back a brand-new school bag and a beautiful pencil case, which our father brought back to us by my father, who was making a living outside.
What impressed me as a child, in addition to this beautiful flower skirt, there was also a beautiful scarf, which was just popular on the streets of the 70s, and the long beautiful scarf that was red and red has always remained in the deepest part of my memory.
At that time, the winter was particularly cold, I was in elementary school, I suddenly found that on the street, someone surrounded by a new red scarf, the scarf was really beautiful, it was rectangular, especially the two ends of the scarf, inlaid with two beautiful gold and silver threads, sparkling in the sun, I really wanted to have such a beautiful scarf, instead of the square soil on the head of the bib, but the value of the scarf was quite expensive at the time, not who wanted to buy it, and I really wanted it. At that time, it was already winter vacation, and it was about to be the New Year, I was holding a three-good student medal, quickly ran home, told my mother, I want to buy a new scarf in the new year, and my mother, who was taking care of business with my father, put down the work in her hand, took out five yuan from my pocket, and said you go to buy it! I rushed back to the supply and marketing agency store and told the salesman aunt that I wanted to buy a scarf! The aunt smiled and shook regretfully, saying, "The little girl scarf is out of stock, and can only wait until next year." When I heard her say this, I almost cried, and when I got home, the tears flowed down, without this beautiful scarf, how can I spend this New Year? Mom and Dad even coaxed and persuaded, saying that the goods would be bought immediately as soon as the year came, and I had to wait slowly, hoping to hurry up the New Year and hurry up the goods.
Two days later, my mother told me and my brother to go to the store to make soy sauce, the scarf has been touching my sensitive nerves, I consciously or unconsciously looked at the shelf, and I saw what I was looking forward to, the scarf! "Brother, brother, the scarf is coming!" Let's go home and get the money to buy it! "I was worried that when I went home to withdraw the money, I sold it out again, so I turned my head and ran outside the store, because of the new year, there were many people buying things, and at the door I bumped into the arms of a person, looked up, not someone else, it was my third uncle, he said Xiaoying, what are you running? See what Uncle Three bought for you? I didn't have time to see what he bought, I just wanted the red scarf, I expressed my intention to uncle three, or I wanted to go home and get the money quickly, so as not to delay my purchase of a scarf for the New Year, and uncle three bought me a scarf, the scarf I dreamed of! The third uncle wrapped me around my neck, afraid that I would fall on the road, I ran all the way home to tell my mother, the third uncle bought me a new scarf, running sweaty, and reluctant to take off this beautiful scarf, wearing a beautiful scarf, I had a happy new year! Times have passed, scarves have long been outdated, and now I have several beautiful silk scarves, but I am too lazy to wear them, no matter how expensive the value of the silk scarves I bought, I can't match the happiness that the scarf of my childhood brought me! After all, it is full of the deep love of our fathers for us, and we must never forget it for the rest of our lives! Unforgettable memories of childhood, countless...
Childhood is full of joy and heartache, if the time can be turned back, I hope to repeat the happy childhood!
