When I was "double grabbing"

(Two of essays)

Text/Shi Qinghua

The crisp sound of the "Dang, Dang, Dangdang" of various production teams sounded, and the hazy nights were knocked out, full of the entire village. Even the bugs hidden in the grass, there is no drowsiness, rubbing their eyes, and scrambling to watch the people who participate in the "double snatch".

"Hey, the majority of members of the members, please bring sickle, baskets, and hurry up to eat. Late, there is no food." I'm afraid there will be a fish that missed the net.

In fact, there is just a meal to eat. No matter whether it is a man, a woman, and a child, you won't come. No matter how big the dozen, you have to let the belly of the "Cuckoo" barking. From childhood to then, I haven't had a meal at home. At that time, many families were like my family- "melon and vegetables for half a year" to solve the problem of lack of food. During the "double grabbing", the production team's white flower rice was full, and there were green pepper fried meat everywhere, just like the New Year. There are more than 70 men, women, and children who can work in the field to work. During eating, several young mothers secretly wrapped the meals with lotus leaves, got into my arms, squeezed out the time to slip back, and fed the little mouth to be fed. Even if Captain Zhang was discovered, he opened his eyes and closed one eye. During the meal, Captain Zhang would encourage everyone: "Full of food, you can do things if you are full."

I ate three large bowls in a swaying, and it is estimated that there is a meal of two or two meters. I touch the round belly, open my arms, stretch the lazy waist, take a half -monthly, sequyed sickle, and picked the basket (pretending The cotton basket is much larger than the basket) and fifteen people in the same group go straight to the divided responsibility field.

The white clouds on the river embankment sucked away the disabled night, blowing the slight South Ocean wind on people's face, cool and comfortable. We tied the pants tube at the ankle with a thin rope to prevent the grasshopper attack. It is in the field without grasshoppers, but also the pants tube. Although it is uncomfortable after being soaked in mud, it has a little impact on the cutting valley, but if the trousers are rolled up, the calf will be cut out of the newly cut rice piles. The serious points will be made up to bandage, which will have a greater impact on the labor process.

I bent down to cut off the weeds that tied the rice side of the field, stretched out my left hand and grabbed two or three valley from the bottom, moved up quickly, and decided to stop the height of the hand. For example, as long as you can stop under the ears of the valley, leaving a longer rice pile in the field for fertilizer; if the stalks of rice are also required, because the rice stalks (commonly known as straw) are required to feed the cattle, and it must be distributed to the distribution. The members went to build the house. At that time, most members lived on the roofs of the brick wall and straw. The straw was added or replaced every year, otherwise it would leak. After reading Du Fu's "August Autumn, the wind is angry, the three -sized Mao on my house" will understand. At this time, the left hand was only a little higher than the ground. Regardless of height, you must hold it tightly and hold it simply. Otherwise, the sharp sickle of the right hand is "the six relatives do not recognize". Once kissed by a sickle, it was troublesome. First of all, you have to put down the sickle, pinch the bleeding place, and try to bleed as little as possible. Blood flowing less, good, otherwise slow. Secondly, another person must go to the field to pick up half lotus with fine stems and leaves. Wash and use a sickle to mash it on the flat burden. Cut a cloth strip with a sickle in the tattered jacket, apply the herbal medicine to the wound, wrap the cloth strip and tied it, and continue to cut the valley. As for the mouth cut on the top, if it is large, cut a small cloth strip, use the sickle to drill the symmetrical small hole on both sides of the mouth, and then pass through the small cloth strip and tie it to solve the problem. If the mouth is small, it is not hindered. When the right -handed sickle is cut down under the left hand of Ganxian, the knife mouth is down, and it cannot go up, so it will cut to the finger. Holding the right hand holding the sickle firmly, two knives were broken. Hold two or three pupa valleys every time on the left hand, and usually hold two or three crickets and cut it again. It is quickly placed on the rice piles quickly and orderly. Guts. This is easy to dry and easy to install. Master the method, as long as it is strong, of course, you must be clever. The speed of cutting valley is fast. The medium -harvested rice (250 kilograms per mu at that time), a skilled adult farmer, cut eight points (640 square meters) every day is not too tired.

Under the feet, the mud water was poured into the trouser tube, and the mud water splattered when the valley was cut forward, and the top was splashed with a lot of mud points, just like the stars on the sky. When the mud water pants are immersed in the knee joint, the sweat flowing from the upper body drops down. The arms and the entire chest are wet with dew, and when the sun is not out, only the back is dry. After the sun came out, the temperature rose rapidly. At more than nine o'clock, the water in the field had been heated, and the back had been wet on the back. Although the chest was not covered with dew, it was poured by sweat. The whole body is wet. Sometimes the sweat on his head flowed down, blurred his eyes, and had to stand up, put down the sickle, because the hand was cleaned, wiped the sweat on the face, and thrown it on the unarmed ears, crystal clear. Bend over for thirty or twenty minutes, take a breath, take a short break.

The shadow of a person is all the time. It is the twelve o'clock of the local meridian. People have worked for more than seven hours. The water under his feet burned hot, smoked on his back, and his back pain was like a knife cut. The water vapor in the field drilled into the heart from the mouth and nostrils. The chest tightness and vomiting were suffocated. It was more uncomfortable than back pain. In any case, you must persist, "the car will not push it."

If it wasn't for sustainable development, members may not have.Everyone climbed into the field like the water picked up, and walked barefoot on the narrow fields, "叽, 叽 叽", and sometimes when he stepped on the road without grass, he quickly shrank, for fear of scalding the water.All kinds of weeds on Tian Yan have become people's foot pads at this time.It seems that everything in nature is useful.(September 10, 2019)
