#Witness of the times # When I was a child, I was most afraid of farming, every time I went to the field at four or five o'clock in the morning during the summer vacation, I took the mud path, the paint was dark, and I accidentally fell into the field and got a muddy body. And when pulling out in the morning, the field can not see anything clearly, sometimes the locusts lie on the feet to suck blood, especially like to nest between the toes, a suck is a morning, when found is already eating round toot.

In the morning, it is generally against the 40-degree sun to cut rice, busy to noon when eating hot eyes of small stars, waist can not stand up straight, parents often say that children have waist, but I think it is true, and the waist is still very tired. Now we still have a lunch break, and in our time, we had just finished lunch and put down the bowl to work in the fields. Some skin allergies will itch when they touch the rice leaves, fortunately I will not, but it is common for my hands to be cut red by the rice leaves.

In the afternoon, it was either planting seedlings or beating rice. Especially when planting seedlings, when stepping on the paddy field that has been sunbathing for a morning, it is like stepping into boiling water, and the feet are burned red. When we beat the rice, we carried a primitive threshing machine, and my parents stepped on the rice while beating the rice, and my brother and I handed the cut rice to my parents. Sun-dried rice leaves are especially cut hands, and the hands and legs are scratched by the rice leaves anyway. The rice that is beaten has to resist the mountain road of one kilometer to get home, and it is really not easy to think about the past farming.

Now it's all changed, there's no need for manual planting, it's all mechanized. Hand-cut rice has also been replaced by harvesters. In the past, rice was also dried, but now the harvester can be directly sent to sell after harvesting. Now rain and thunder are hiding at home, and before lightning and thunder were still planting seedlings in the paddy fields. The one who was afraid saw a series of lightning bolts splitting in the paddy field, and felt that the next second would be electrified. Sometimes at night, when it is dark, there are no lights in the mountain roads, and the lightning and thunder have become natural flashlights.

This is the memory of our post-80s era, although bitter, but now in retrospect, it has become their own wealth, it is that unforgettable years that made them develop industrious and thrifty, hard-working, simple and unpretentious character. And the children of this era can no longer appreciate the things of our time, and it has to be said that it is also a pity, because the lack of tempering of children is still too fragile. Sometimes progress may also be a regression, everything depends on mechanization, then our hands and feet and thinking patterns are constantly degrading due to lack of experience.

To youth, a good memory of our time!
