Dad was born in 1958, and when he went to school, he just experienced the Cultural Revolution movement, and he was actually very smart since he was a child, reading all the way to high school.
After graduating from high school, I went home to work and waited to be recommended for college. If it is recommended to study and go to college, my father should be very hopeful, but in 1977, the sky exploded with a thunderclap, and the college entrance examination system was restored.
However, because of the background of the times at that time, their general knowledge accumulation was not much. At this time, my father had been working hard in his hometown for two years, and the knowledge he learned had long been thrown out of the clouds, and the exam was simply a fantasy for him.
Later, I often heard my dad brag that he took the first college entrance examination. In the winter of 1977, my father walked into the examination room in a light suit, and after the test paper was sent, both eyes were crooked, and he did not know how to answer those questions, he said that he basically handed in the white paper at that time, and the key was really not at all. #Witness of the Times#
My dad and his classmates were the only one who was admitted to college that year. Through the college entrance examination to go to college, my father completely gave up after taking the exam, and he also knew that he had no strength at all, so why should he struggle.
Later, because he graduated from high school, his grandfather arranged for him to teach at the primary school in our village, so he became a substitute teacher.
After the reform and opening up, all walks of life broke out of the vigorous vitality, that will be substitute teachers treatment is too low, my father finally gave up this road, began his brick moving career, that is, as a mason.
Then the rural people will slowly eat enough and have money, so they will have to renovate their homes and build new houses, so the treatment of the masons will be OK. Later, my father became more and more experienced, so he became a small contract foreman, and he did make some money at that time.
Although he has not been rich and wealthy in this life, he has lived happily all day, and he is now older, and he feels that he is quite satisfied with his life.
In that era, they experienced a lot of hardships, and then caught up with various policy dividends, from poverty to full of food and clothing, so my parents were particularly easy to satisfy, which may be the source of their happiness.
