#Witnesses of the Times #What do children in the mountains do after school, subvert your imagination with my experience
I was young, probably only 10 years old.
Although I was young, I had to take on the responsibility of taking care of my family, because I was a sensible little girl and I didn't want to be so tired of my family.
Every day when I come back from school at noon and finish eating, there will be a lot of things waiting for me. And the so-called lunch break, I have never enjoyed.
First, go to the river to wash the family's clothes. The clothes at home are all washed by me in the summer. Sometimes, the weather is a little bit colder, and the river is a little cooler.
However, I can't complain because I have to take on the responsibilities for my family. Mom and Dad are also very busy every day, and I can help them a little bit.
The dirty clothes at home seem to never be washed, and there are dirty ones every day. However, I can't complain about my family, I can only silently wash the clothes at home and then cool them.
Second, go up the hill and pull the grass
At that time, there were 2 sheep in the family, including a small lamb, and every day I had to go to the mountain to pluck fresh grass for him to eat. In order to be able to eat lamb in the New Year.
My family lives halfway up the mountain, so it's a mountain to climb out the door.
Sometimes the mountains are quiet, and I am alone, or a little afraid. At that time, there were some people who dug their hearts on the mountain, so sometimes I always had to go around on the mountain to see if there was anyone, and if I saw a person, I was very afraid, afraid that he was the person who dug the heart. This is probably what we are talking about as organ traffickers now, right?
In fact, I have only heard that I have never seen anyone really gouged out of their hearts? But at that time, children were still afraid, especially when they were alone in the mountains. Every day, after I pulled a basket full of grass, I quickly rolled down the mountain with a rolling belt and returned home to breathe a sigh of relief. When the sheep are fed the grass, the work of pulling the grass is over.
Of course, I'll have other jobs.
Third, if I encounter a busy farmer, I will deliver food to my grandfather in the field at noon.
At that time, some of the land in the family was very far away, and Grandpa had to walk for 1-2 hours to get to the field, and sometimes Grandpa could not come back to eat at noon in order to do more work in the field. And I deliver food to grandpa, and it takes about 2-3 hours to go back and forth. From this mountain, you climb another mountain and then down the mountain again to get there.
I walked faster because I had to rush to school in the afternoon.
These are relatively simple and easy jobs, and some jobs are more difficult for me, and they also have to suffer some hardships.
I will write here today, and I will write to you next time I have time.
Welcome to follow me.
