My autobiography

(1) My birthday

I, Wang Fenglei, male, Han nationality, attribute Xiaolong (snake), was born on October 16, 1977 in Wangji Village, Liuhe Township, Yongcheng County, Henan Province (now Liuhe Town, Yongcheng City). Actually, my date of birth is inaccurate, but I don't know exactly what month and day, and my parents can't remember clearly, but what my parents can remember is that I was born in the autumn of the second year after Chairman Mao's death, probably a certain day in October.

Originally, every time my parents gave birth to a child, they would write the child's birthday on a red piece of paper. I remember when I was a child, I saw this piece of red paper in my father's tin toolbox where the movie was playing, and the red paper clearly remembered my two older brothers, two older sisters, and my birthdays (when I was in the fifth grade of elementary school, my mother gave birth to my younger brother). I don't know if I was illiterate at the time, or if I didn't pay attention to it, but I didn't have any impression of the numbers on the paper anyway.

If that aunt of mine is still around, I'll be able to figure out my birthday. This aunt is a neighbor of my hometown, and her memory is the best in our village, and she remembers clearly who gave birth to her child in what year, month, day, and even what time it was, who picked up the child, and whose child was born on the same day. It's a pity that before I could go to her for verification, she was killed in a car accident on the way to burn incense and worship the Buddha. At this point, my birthday has become a problem that can never be solved.

For a long time, I was always entangled in what month and day I was born, so that my brain hurt when I thought about it, and then I thought about it, why bother with this issue, since I have determined that my birthday is October 16th, then cherish it! Just like many things in life, you are hard to seek, hard to seek, in the end is such a result, for this result, you can only accept this result calmly, and cherish it, you will not be lost, will not be painful.

(2) This kid is so handsome

When I was born, there were almost no cameras in the countryside. So, I don't have pictures of me when I was a kid in my house, and I certainly don't know what I looked like when I was a kid. Just listen to my grandmother, my mother and my neighbors say that I am the most handsome of the boys born in our village at the same time in the same time. When I say this, it is not that Wang Po sells melons and boasts, but there is a factual basis (there is a smile here).

In the third month after I was born, my mother took me to my mother's house (Jiangzhuang Village, Liuhe Town), fifteen miles away, to visit relatives. As she walked, my mother was tired, so she sat on the bridge between Liuji Village and Nige Village to rest. At that time, there was a kind-faced grandmother sitting on the bridge, dressed like a retired cadre. My grandmother asked me if the boy or the girl my mother was holding in her arms, and my mother said it was a boy. The old grandmother asked my mother to lift the bag that was wrapped around me and take a look. As soon as my mother opened it, my grandmother exclaimed, "This doll is so handsome! Judging by his face, he will definitely be a great official in the future!"

After arriving at my grandmother's house, my eldest grandmother, second grandmother, third grandmother, eldest concubine, second grandmother, third grandmother and other relatives all competed to hug me, a little grandson and nephew whom I had never met. When they saw me, none of them did not praise me for my handsomeness! Later, all the people in my grandmother's village came to see me.

There was a little girl in our village who was about the same size as me, and we used to play together when we were kids. Sometimes adults tease her and ask her what kind of boy she will marry when she grows up, and she will take my hand and say, "I'll marry her!" When we were in junior high school, her family asked a matchmaker to propose marriage to me. My parents disagreed, saying that the child was still young. The matchmaker said, people said, now it's just settled, and you don't get married, what are you afraid of! Besides, the little girl is also handsome. When I was in junior high school, I was the first in my grade in every exam, and the teacher said that I would be 100% able to get into a good university in the future. My parents listened to the teacher and said that they would not agree to this family business.

If I had foreseen that I would have gotten into the way I am today, I might as well tie the knot with that girl! That girl was indeed beautiful, and what is still fresh in people's memories is her shallow, sweet smile, intoxicating and intoxicating (there is a smile here), and this must not be heard by my daughter-in-law, who is the mother of my child, or she should say, "From this day on, you will not eat any more of my cooking!" (there is a smile here)

(3) The old cow held his breath

When I was a child, I had a strange disease, commonly known as "the old cow holding his breath". Because of this disease, I was laughed at by my family for several years. However, because of this incident, there was a lot of laughter in our family.

I don't know why, when I was a child, I was so energetic that as long as I was angry, I would fall to the ground with a plop, my limbs stiff, my face full of iron, my teeth clenched, and I had no breath.

My eldest brother first discovered this disease. One day, my eldest brother brought me a toy to coax me to play. When I asked him if he wanted it, he handed it to me, and when I reached out to take it, he immediately retracted it with a grin. At first, I didn't get angry. After three times or twice, I was so angry that I cried and jumped and jumped, and I died in a short time.

When my eldest brother saw that I was out of breath, he was so frightened that he ran away.

After a while, my grandfather came back from the field with the ox, and when he saw me lying motionless on the ground, he quickly called my grandmother. My grandmother didn't study medicine, but she learned a lot of remedies from her mother. My grandmother ran over and quickly pinched one of the acupoints on my hand, and later my grandmother told me that this acupoint was called "hand goo". Grandma pinched my hand a few times, and I slowly opened my eyes and came back to life.

Later, whenever someone made me angry, I would relapse and die. It took a few times before my family learned that I was suffering from "old cow breathlessness". My father and mother asked the barefoot doctor in the village to treat me many times, and the village doctor said: "This disease is the most afraid of qi, and the more qi you have, the more severe the symptoms, and when you reach a certain level, you may not survive." Moreover, there is no medicine that can cure this disease. The only way is not to make him angry. ”

My father and mother warned my older brothers and sisters not to make me angry again. But my strength is too great, and I go to the ghost gate at every turn. My whole family was worried about this. My grandmother gave me all the remedies she could use, but I didn't see any effect.

Later, when my grandfather heard about my strange illness, he also asked me about home remedies. Hard work pays off. Soon, my grandfather really heard about a magical home remedy, which is said to be the nemesis of "old cow holding his breath". This home remedy is to peel a fetal lamb (born dead), put salt on it, cook it and eat it, and eat three in a row.

With the mentality of treating a dead horse as a live horse doctor, my family found me a fetal lamb and prepared it for me according to the method my grandfather said. It was really a unilateral cure for a serious illness, and after I ate a little lamb, the disease was alleviated, and after eating three, it was completely cured. God bless me!
