The summer of the year of love and dust

The only one looking to my right

In the summer of '91, I was single and crossed most of China by train from Guiyang to Panjin, Liaoning Province, to see my grandfather (grandfather). At that time, my grandfather was nearly eighty years old and several uncles worked and lived in the base of the Ninth Construction Company of the Ministry of Chemical Industry in Panjin City, Jiuhua Company was known as the "Nine Bandits", the employees were diligent and fierce, and there were few opponents in the world, and it was famous in the Ministry of Chemical Industry at that time (because one of the requirements of the WTO World Trade Organization for the entrants was the market economy, and the cancellation of the central ministries and commissions of production and operation was a requirement for joining the WTO, and the Ministry of Chemical Industry was abolished in 1998). I was also slightly influenced by their rebellious personality. Saying that he was not prepared to see his grandfather, he bought a cigarette and stuffed it into his backpack, wore a pair of black pants, a sea soul shirt, a pair of torn slippers, and got on the train for two hundred yuan. A long hair with this line at that time was either a fallen literary youth or a blind stream, and now I want to come to my brother can also be regarded as a pioneer in China wearing slippers to go to the world... However, this costume also brought trouble, on the train to Beijing there was a time to go to the toilet, it was difficult to squeeze to the toilet door was running into the train captain who was looking at the train ticket, the dog looked at people and suspected that I did not have a ticket, provoked the grandfather to attack the heart and prepare to hand blade this, this grandson saw me angrily open his right fist clenched at that time, he immediately turned around and checked on others. You uncle, you can doubt my intelligence but you can't insult my personality, this is a big taboo for readers!! When I stood in front of the statue of Chairman Mao at Tiananmen Square, I secretly expressed my determination: Chairman Mao, I promise you that in the future, I will study hard every day and become a new person. The next few days will hang around, the Forbidden City Summer Palace Beihai Workers' Cultural Palace Temple of Heaven Temple of Earth Temple Asian Games Village, see a park monument to drill in, originally prepared to live in the capital for a week, did not expect that the cost of the capital is too large, not two days of entanglement on the stretch. That night, I smoked the last cigarette on the Wangfujing pedestrian bridge and resolutely decided to change my ticket and go to the northeast ahead of schedule. ............

On the train to Panjin, there are two yuan left in the pocket, but before getting on the train, I had a luxury, bought a Coca-Cola bottle of Qingdao and a package of Hongtashan, and the rice can not be eaten without eating spiritual food, which is the characteristic of literary and artistic youth. You don't have to say, just by relying on this little thing and those two dollars, I was stunned for twelve hours, and when I was waiting anxiously at the door of the jiuhua company's family area police station, I heard my third aunt shouting from afar: "Oh my Hao'er, why are you coming!" Miss aunt, huh? All big guys! Why are you still so thin? Your mother doesn't feed you every day! "I just wanted to report a shy smile, my aunt came up with a bear hug, my heart was hot, my aunt was my aunt, blood was thicker than water... Before I could finish sighing, my aunt pushed me far away: "Did you fall into the pit?" Why does it stink so much!! "Hey, my aunt is my aunt, just like my mother!" From that day on, happiness came so suddenly! Sleep until you wake up naturally every day, clothes to reach out and eat to open your mouth, a meal of tobacco and wine open supply, my three aunts' three daughters have no sons, from a young age to treat me as their sons, even my name is the third aunt, you say you can treat me as an outsider?! I also came with the attitude that I am still with you who eats you and drinks you! The northeast people especially spoiled the boys, and suddenly forced me to drink, and if I didn't drink, I wasn't a grandfather! My grandfather was naturally happy to see me, and took out the good cigarettes and good wine that he had treasured for many years for me to enjoy, and when he saw people, he praised me, this is my grandson, who came to see me from Guizhou and brought me Guizhou cigarettes! Grandpa, your Moutai has been given to me to drink, what is my cigarette! Hey, loved ones, even if you give all your love, you always feel that you are far from enough and guilty!

Oh, and one more thing about youth. In the past two months in the northeast, I have met a very good girl, she is my cousin's colleague, no coincidence, no book, that is, I just arrived at my aunt's house on the day she came to see my cousin after work (my cousin took sick leave at home), when she knocked on the door and came in, I happened to come out of the bathroom after taking a shower, and I recovered my natural mood, and my hair was wet and I didn't know if there was an effect of water hibiscus. I saw a tall, fair-skinned girl standing in the doorway, and I nodded politely to her and then shyly hid in the house, only to freeze and not move until my cousin reminded her: Meng Mei, you come in, what are you doing standing outside! Only then did she wake up drunk. From then on, this girl ran to my aunt's house at both ends for three days, and as soon as she got off work, her cousin called out to me as soon as she came: "Hao'er, Meng Mei is coming!" Come out! "Sister, what did you do to me?" It always feels weird! So I picked up a pack of cigarettes and appeared upside down, and my cousin was also at home during the summer vacation, so the responsibility of coaxing the three girls fell on me. I taught them to play arch pigs scrambling upstream to sing Cantonese songs and dance waltzes or just talk about the mountains, and the eighteen martial arts were all used! The atmosphere is naturally good and the laughter is continuous. As soon as Miss Meng left, my cousin praised me, brother you are really powerful, look at the people Meng Mei sister to make a giggle! I'm poor mouth, and the old hen lays eggs! Oops cousin, why are you pinching me? ...... After another period of time, one day my cousin mysteriously said to me, "Meng Mei likes you!" "Sister, don't be fooled, I'm timid." I used to come three or two times a month, but now I come almost every day, and I treat this place as my home! So obvious that you can't see it! "Sister, I'm nearsighted. Although she was beautiful, she was too tall, and she said that there was more than one meter six nine and I looked at one meter seven. I hate lying girls the most! But people girls have a very thin heart, and wear flat shoes every time they go out, "This..., sister, our poor students have an unpredictable future, and it is a road of no return, don't let girls be widowed at a young age... Oops, sister, you pinch me again! I'm in a hurry! ............ Qia classmates are young, and youth is like a song. Later, when I returned to Guiyang, Aunt Meng wrote to me to send me money, but I couldn't afford this heavy emotion. We haven't even held hands, but this hazy feeling is another kind of youthful bloom. Thank you for being nice to me, good people have good dreams!!

Conclusion: Speaking of life on the train in that era, life was all-encompassing. In that era, the southerners were introverted and reserved, the northerners were enthusiastic and cheerful, the simplicity and kindness of the Central Plains people were interpreted to the fullest, the northerners, especially the northeasterners, speculated and had common concerns, and the other party would definitely shout excitedly: Oh Mom, aren't you the one who is who is the second brother-in-law and the third grandfather of the family? At this time, I basically did not argue, because it was futile. If it is uncle uncle tobacco and wine, hand it over, if it is a big aunt and aunt for a while two apples and a hawthorn for a while, a hawthorn will be stuffed into your hand, love is like a tide. Zhongyuan people are more rational, but they are absolutely pure and kind. Returning from the northeast in 1991, on the train from Beijing to Guiyang, there was a leader of an organ who returned to Zhumadian, Henan Province, after a meeting in Beijing, more than fifty years old, wearing thick glasses, and his face was full of worries about the country and the people. After talking to him, he found that I was very interested in Chinese cultural history, and I had my own views on the historical plot, and I was immediately interested. I talked all the way, a cigarette for a while, only to smoke my small lungs really overwhelmed, and gave me a drink of his large leaf tea brewed in a large Nescafe coffee bottle, bitter no. I remember what my uncle said to me when he got out of the car: Young man study hard, China will rely on you in the end. Sorry, uncle! I may have failed you, but I will never fail life again, live up to those good hopes! (Thoughts at the time)

This is the story of that summer, and it is also a growing experience, suddenly like a dream but never forgotten.

I wish all of our friends on the go a safe journey.
