When it comes to summer, many people scoff: what's so good about summer? The sun is like fire, and the heat is unbearable. Sweat like pulp and dappled makeup. Mosquitoes are rampant, and there is no appetite at all. I feel that the brain is not supplied with oxygen, and I am drowsy and sleepy all day long, and even my temper has become hot. Bitter summer. As a person who is afraid of the cold and winter, he is eager to hibernate and really likes summer.
When I was a child, after taking the exam and receiving the report card, the long summer vacation began. I lay on the cool mat at home, listening to the sound of cicadas outside the window like a waterfall, time flooded me like water, and I felt that the time could not be longer. There is no cram school, no summer vacation homework, the whole vacation can be carefree to play, no heart and no lungs to play, think about it to be happy can't help but laugh out loud.
In a happy childhood, there is no air conditioning and no fan, but you will not feel the impatience and suffering of the steamer-like summer.
Although the material is not rich, but the spirit is very happy, compared to today's children, I was called childhood when I was a child. So much so that as soon as I closed my eyes, I thought of the taste of childhood, the taste of summer, which was Luo Dayou's classic "Childhood".
I remember the summer of my childhood much hotter than it is today, especially in July, when the heat wave rolls in, and there is a layer of heat between heaven and earth, and it seems that a match can be burned. The heat reduction tools are simple and primitive, and every family has several old-fashioned fans, which are very cherished, and some old people also give the fans a cloth carefully along the edge. A fan can be used for many years, and the fan handle is polished and slippery, like a pulp on a cultural relic. On a hot summer night, I slept in the shaking fan of my grandmother or mother and grew up slowly.
Summer nights are tacky, noisy, and full of fireworks, which is the ordinary and hot life of the city.
Don't want to eat food, find a night market stall, about three or five confidants, maza a sitting, edamame, meat skewers, beer, dust and smoke, eat meat and drink. Blowing a cool breeze, talking about the world, the shadows of the trees are mottled, the lights are flickering, and the shadows are enough, making people feel the joy of life. There are rumors that barbecue is unhealthy, and can even cause cancer, life is already so difficult, and it is nothing to eat some junk food occasionally. Without fireworks, life is a lonely journey.
In a happy childhood, you will not feel the steamer-like summer's impatience and suffering at all. Only in the difficult life after that, can you experience the taste of "bitter summer". Happiness shortens time, and suffering lengthens the years, just as long as the endless bitter summer.
