I like this poem by Bai Juyi very much. Bai Juyi, a poet, described and praised the character Xiaocao comprehensively, vividly, profoundly, delicately and objectively in short language. Although the grass is petite and thin, it has tenacious vitality and is endless in the years. You can't cut or hoe. As long as a little root is left, it will germinate again in the coming year and soon spread to Yuanye. "endless grass on the grassland" is the banner of victory. No matter how fierce the fire is, it can't help the roots buried deep underground. No matter how mercilessly the fire burns, once the spring breeze turns into rain, there is green everywhere ... the grass has no gorgeous beauty and charming fragrance; There is no elegance of lotus, and there is no wealth of peony; She is praised and admired by the world for her unique personality. When I was a child, I always liked to take my sister to play on the grass, perch on the happy branches of the grass and weave one beautiful childhood dream after another; Design one hazy fantasy after another. Whenever I think of this, I will think of my "crying sister" and her gray childhood.
? Grey childhood
1956 One day, in a village in Songnen Plain, Da 'an City, Jilin Province, a fresh life was born with several cries of babies. She is my "crying sister". My sister was born at the wrong time. At that time, China's economy was still very backward, especially in rural areas, and people's lives were miserable. Under the planned economy system, people have to buy everything by ticket, and the low productivity has caused the demand to exceed the supply, and often the price is not available. In addition, farmers have no tickets and no money, which determines that their lives are not guaranteed, and even food and clothing can not be solved. I don't remember anything about my sister when she was very young, and I don't even have a vague impression. I only remember that my sister went to school very late, about 8 or 9 years old. One of the reasons why I study so late is that my sister has to take care of her sister who is five years younger than her. When an adult goes to work in a foreign country, things at home fall on her. You can imagine how difficult it is for an 8-year-old child to take care of this family with a 3-year-old child. Often tired, big sister and little sister cry together; She cried all day, and later her family called her "Crying Essence". Secondly, the family is very poor. At that time, there were six children in our family, three sisters and two sisters plus me, and my father was the main labor force. It can be said that our family is a poor family among the poor. Even the tuition fee of 2 yuan a year can't be paid, so our sister has no education and only attended school for four years at most. It's not that they don't study well, they are all smart and study well, or they are not allowed to go to school because their families are poor. My family pinned all their hopes on me and only allowed me to go to school alone. Every time I think about this, my heart is always sour. I always feel that I owe them a lot and feel guilty about my sisters. I am very lucky. My sisters created a beautiful life with their sweat and tears. If I am more knowledgeable and educated than them, it is because I stand on their shoulders. I want to say a heartfelt word to the world and my sisters-thank you for making me proud all my life! The third is that parents are a little partial to their younger sister. In their eyes, my sister is neither smart nor beautiful, and even thinks my sister is not very smart. They think that even if they let their sister go to school, she can't learn well. In addition, the family has no money to pay tuition, so I have never let my sister go to school. Later, my neighbor couldn't stand it anymore, and told my mother privately that you "old four" are so old that you still don't let go of the word knowledge. What should she do when she grows up? She is not smart in the first place, and it will be even worse if she doesn't go to school. Persuaded by her neighbors, her sister finally went to school. My sister failed to live up to the expectations of her neighbors. She studies very well and her academic performance has always been among the best. It is difficult for her to go to school on time to finish her studies, and at the same time, she has to shoulder the task of digging wild vegetables for her family and feeding pigs. So when someone else's children came home from school to do their homework, she had quietly picked up the vegetable basket and ran to the wild several miles away to dig vegetables. I don't know how she got a basket of dozens of pounds of vegetables home, and she was so tired that she often cried and coughed! The real masters are the children of poor families.
The good times didn't last long. Two years later, my sister was not allowed to go to school because my poor father didn't say anything. He scolded her and told her to drop out of school, but she had no choice but to drop out. After dropping out of school, 12-year-old sister helped her father support his family. Every day, she goes to the wild four or five miles away to dig "Mom". My sister is very capable. She is a person who doesn't know how to work hard. She always competes with adults. If a bag of herbs can't be lifted by itself, let her help carry it on her shoulders. When she is tired, she will take a rest and then carry her back, making her hair sweat. I was so angry that my uncle and sister-in-law scolded her lovingly: "Why aren't you stupid enough to die?" What will you do if you don't die at such a young age? If you can't carry it, you won't carry it less. Well, if you bring less, you won't be my sister. This is my sister, a silly sister who makes me love, hate, hurt and pity. Digging in the wild during the day and mowing in the middle of the night, as if she was born to work, life deprived her of everything she deserved in her childhood. Poverty and fatigue didn't scare my sister. She is positive and optimistic, laughing at life like still water, enjoying society like a river, and fighting against fate with her life; There are many grievances and ups and downs in the young mind. She always thinks of others and lives for others. Although she can see through everything, she always keeps everything in her heart and covers up her unhappiness with a smile. As long as others live well, she is willing to greet the sun tomorrow with a smile. Her indomitable character is like the nameless grass. As long as she is given a handful of soil, a ray of sunshine and a drop of water, she will thrive even if she is beaten by wind and rain and trampled by cattle and sheep. She is like a stream running day and night, regardless of any difficulties and obstacles, heading for the established goal and the sun. The sun rose, dyed the rivers and mountains red, dyed the heart red. Far away, silly, I saw her chasing the sun. ...
? Stubborn half penny
My sister was a real "semi-worker" when she was under 0/4 years old. Half-labor is half-labor. At that time, the production team took part in labor with adults, doing half the work of adults and earning half a centimeter of money from adults. She got up early in the dark and couldn't even bear to delay a job. It can be said that there is nothing in the countryside that she has not done. I want to get off work at 4: 00 a.m. and deliver excrement by car. By dawn, I had delivered two carts of dung. You can go home for breakfast at this time and get off work at 7 pm. /kloc-A child of 0/4 years old doesn't know how she survived. Cutting the grass, the captain's timing is right. When people reach the ground, they can only tell the difference between seedlings and grass. The dew in the morning soaked the shoes and two trouser legs, and it took half a morning to dry. She can only earn 5 points by giving so much in one day. The full mark of a Labor Day is 10. She can only earn 5 points as a part-time job. At that time, the benefit of our production team was not good, and the score of 10 was only 50 cents, which means that my sister can only earn more than 20 cents a day. People won't believe me until now and will say that I am making up a story, but this is a true story. In rural areas, if there are many boys, laborers, relatives and powerful people at home, they will be given preferential treatment and will be arranged by the team leader to do a good job; On the other hand, my sister is not so lucky. She has done all kinds of dirty work and doesn't care about anything as long as she can earn points. This stubborn character has won the praise of everyone, and adults admire her very much. Yin Xilin, the production captain, always praised her. She made friends with a group of young sisters, and she won people's respect for her with her own labor.
At the age of fifteen, she works like an adult, and she is proficient in all kinds of farm work. Once, production team leader Yin Xilin led them to harvest millet. During the break, the captain pulled out a millet seedling, a heart and a grass heart to let everyone know whether it was grass or millet. Look at her, everyone. Some people say it's millet, others say it's grass. The captain smiled and said, none of you can do it. We have to answer this question with snot. My sister had rhinitis when she was a child, and sometimes she had a runny nose. Captain Yin also had this problem when he was a child, so he always laughed at himself, saying that she was a snot sister, not a snot. After carefully reading the "Ancient Temple" brought by the captain, my sister did not hesitate to give the correct answer. Everyone was shocked. Look at me. I wonder if you haven't spoken for a long time. My sister is so good at cutting corn that men can't pull her down. "It's really women who don't let men." When I graduated from high school, I was catching up with the production team to cut wheat, and everyone shared it. Seeing that everyone else was about to finish eating, I didn't even cut half of it. I'm covered in sweat and my hands are covered with blood. My sister and her companions came to help me finish the task. At this moment, I feel the importance of my sister's existence for the first time in my life; It's a shame. When I was a child, I despised my sister and always quarreled with her. I don't look like my brother. Maybe it's because I am an only child. I am spoiled by everyone, and I don't know how to let my sister go, let alone feel sorry for my sister. I was scolded by my parents for this. My sister is also a child with personality. She is a stubborn person who never gives up. However, when she quarrels, she will cry and quarrel with you, and her eyes will be as big as cows ... My sister had many nicknames when she was a child, all of which were my "masterpieces". Crying should be a masterpiece. Every time I think about this, I feel ashamed of my sister from the heart. Look at the children now. Brother cares so much about his sister and so much about himself. I really want to find a place to get in. It seems that I stopped quarreling with my sister after I went to work in the team, but I don't know how deep my feelings for my sister are. Maybe I'm selfish, maybe I'm too late to mature, maybe ... The luckiest one in Seven Sisters is my little sister, who is the only one of my sisters who has been cared for and cared for by me since childhood. I worked when she was still in primary school, and I already knew my brother's responsibilities and obligations. From her study, work to marriage, I did everything my brother should do, or I was doing what my father should do. This is the only thing I am proud of among my sisters, so I must write it down. After my sister became a full-time worker, the difficulties at home eased. She never misses a day's work except illness and rest. Her annual income exceeds 3000 centimeters. In less than three years, my family's triangular debt to the production team has been paid off, and the days are getting better and better. All this is the result of my sister's efforts. My sister has devoted her youthful sweat and hard work to this family. I always laugh when I mention these sisters. Suddenly thought of the oak tree in the north, some people call it oak tree, Baltic tree. This is a very common tree in the north. She doesn't choose the terrain, and the slopes and hills are everywhere. It is not as tall and straight as pine trees, nor as tall and straight as poplars. It has strong vitality and immortal character. After a big fire, it is still lush. I admire the unyielding quality of oak trees. They never give in to storms and never give in. It is another beautiful scenery besides pine and cypress in northern winter. I like the charm of maple leaves and appreciate the elegance of oak leaves.
The turning point in life
Suddenly a Ye Xiang, scattered for withered Kun Wan Li spring. "God is fair. When it closes a door for you, it will definitely open a window for you. As long as you make unremitting efforts, the god of luck will take care of you. Look at your sister's good luck. 1977 One day in midsummer, an exciting news came. We received a permit from my sister to move to Heilongjiang Agricultural Reclamation. Everyone is running around telling each other that their sister is going to be a national staff member and earn cash, and all kinds of envious eyes are focused on her. Speaking of these, I can't help but mention the second sister. Without her efforts, we could not have come to Heilongjiang Agricultural Reclamation, and there would be nothing we have now. It was the second sister who changed our lives, our destiny and the fate of a family. Second sister is the hero of our family and the most respected person of our sisters. This year is her 66th birthday. I have agreed with my sisters that I will personally give her this birthday and I will lend it to my sister for another 66 years. I hope my sister will be safe, healthy and happy in her later years.
After coming to the farm, my sister was assigned to 42 regiments 1 1 company and became a veritable agricultural worker. The new working environment, new way of life, going to work on time and having a rest on Saturday are unimaginable for my sister who had no rest day the year before, as if living in a dream; Especially three meals a day of rice and white flour, for my sister, every day is Chinese New Year. At that time, my salary was 30 yuan per month. My sister told me that I would keep my salary for my future wife. My sister's salary keeps 10 yuan's living expenses every month, and the rest keeps to support the family. At that time, my parents and my little sister had not come to the farm and needed to send them money. At that time, my sister and I were in the same unit, she was in the agricultural and industrial platoon, and I was in the research class. From then on, I knew that I cared about my sister and felt sorry for her. I remember that the "Eleventh" Company handed out moon cakes, and I only ate one piece of two Jin each. Seeing that my sister was tired from work, I gave the rest to her, and I lied to her that I didn't like it. I thought my sister could eat enough this time, but later I learned that she was unwilling to eat the moon cakes I gave her and took them back to her sister's house. My sister asked her why you didn't eat it and took it home. My sister said my brother gave it to me, but my brother said he didn't like it. Sister smiled and said, you are so stupid. Your brother is reluctant to give it to you. How can he not like mooncakes if he hasn't eaten them? My sister is good at living a simple life. She always thinks too much about others and too little about herself. Now think about the monthly living expenses of 10 yuan, which is really not enough for a young man. My sister is often reluctant to eat, and always buys half of it. I am ashamed to say that I am a careless brother. I knew nothing about these things at that time. I thought she was doing well, and I didn't know the details for many years. She works hard and always wants to earn more money and buy some clothes for her sister and brother-in-law during the Chinese New Year. The daily quota for cutting soybeans is 3 mu, and she always cuts 7 or 8 mu. The quota for repairing water conservancy in winter is tripartite, and she always repairs 6 or 7 square meters. Just because cutting soybeans and repairing water is profitable by mu and party. She is like a tireless old ox, never stopping working ... in the eleventh company, her sister is famous for her ability. Even the young and old in the company like her very much and treat her very well. Some old workers often invite her to dinner at home. My sister will often use her rest time to knit sweaters and hook pillowcases for everyone. She has adapted to the environment of agricultural reclamation and lived a warm and harmonious dormitory life with her sisters. My elder sister conquered everyone with her own personality charm. The leaders nicknamed her "big sister" and asked her to be the platoon leader of female soldiers many times, but my elder sister refused because she knew she had no education. The company commander had no choice but to let someone else be the platoon leader and his sister help the platoon leader, because my sister has a high prestige in the female platoon and is the "leader" and "big sister" of the female platoon.
Luck has turned in sb's favor.
When the time comes, heaven and earth are United, and it is not free to transport heroes. You can't stop when luck comes. 20 10 the little sister who works in Yantai worked hard to transfer the big sister to a company in Yantai Development Zone, Shandong Province to do sales work. Abandoning agriculture and going into business is a brand-new topic for my sister. She put down her airs and learned modestly from the beginning. When she first started selling, she didn't know how many supercilious eyes and cold feet she encountered. My sister always greets her with a smile. Although my sister's education is not high, she pays great attention to civilized language when she speaks and does things outside. When she doesn't smile or talk, it means "hello", which always makes me feel a little fake as a cultured person. Many things happen. My sister won the recognition of business circle staff and company leaders with her diligence, persistence, boldness, enthusiasm, friendliness and honesty, and became a sales agent in a certain area. People respected her as a senior manager. My sister is the sales manager of the company department, and she has ushered in the second spring of her career. Environment has changed people. Once a mud leg, he became a business elite and a leader. I don't believe it unless I see them with my own eyes. Now my sister is wearing fashionable clothes, such as Clinton's pants, Kennedy's shoes and Reagan's famous brand. Carrying a small bag is quite exquisite. My sister's education is not high, her ability to handle affairs is strong, her memory is excellent, she sees problems deeply and thinks about them carefully. No matter what kind of customers she comes into contact with twice, she can see through their minds. Have rich experience in shopping malls. Some people say that high managers are low-educated. If the culture is high, there will be better development in the business circle. Seeing my sister's development, I remembered a sentence that people often say, "It is better to take Wan Li Road than to read thousands of books, and it is better to follow the footsteps of successful people than to take countless people to read Wan Li Road." You see, the reason why "Manager Gao" is today is because he saw that people are on the right path. Some people say that life is rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea. I want to say that there are poems and paintings behind the rice, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar tea. Love life and decorate it with your heart. Life will certainly present you with a beautiful picture of prosperity and good luck.
Tengda's career and beautiful life
The next day, the morning glow continued, and the flowers in the garden reflected the sun. 10 years later, the career and life of "manager of ups and downs in Shanghai" have reached the peak, which can be described as a successful career and a happy life. They already have a house and a car, and they have got rid of the primary stage of Zhao Benshan's saying that "if there are two sheep at home, they are called Yang Zong". After work, I often play music and drink some kungfu tea. Now that my sister is retired, my niece works as a department manager in a company in Beijing. After retirement, my sister used her spare time to study the way of keeping in good health, farming, dancing and yangko dancing ... "Mr. Gao" is very smart, has extraordinary memory mechanics, and is meticulous and professional. Even I, a "martial arts expert", am ashamed of myself. Manager Gao studied what he had learned. Starting from the basic work, he insisted on leg press every day for two or three years in order to dance well. Now "Manager Gao" lifts the "shoe" once in his left leg and once in his right leg. If you don't accept it, you call it kung fu. Small yangko twisted, mobilizing every cell of the whole body, and every joint of the whole body was moving. 1 1,000-strong yangko team is headed by "Gao Manager" (about 1 1,000 people can attend every day). When the gongs and drums were loud, the manager set up a small fan and a potential person danced like a swallow. When twisted to the climax, it is a "fan flower" that keeps "flying" and is wonderful. Not long ago, in the Yangko Competition held in Yantai Development Zone Square, the flying-eyed old man "Manager Gao" was distracted and fell down with a somersault, causing bursts of laughter. This is the dancing skill and charm of "Manager Gao".
Appreciate the graceful dance of "Gao Manager" and the passionate yangko of "Gao Manager", and then I will lead readers to watch "Huaguoshan and Vegetable Basket" by "Gao Manager". Manager Gao lives in a "landscape garden", which, as the name implies, is a treasure house with mountains, water and "immortals". I like the name "Landscape Garden" very much. It is elegant and elegant. I also like this place very much. In front is the endless clear water and sea, guarding the peace of the child in her arms day and night like a loving mother, followed by rolling mountains, supporting the child's backbone on her shoulders like strict father. Stand on the balcony on the 28th floor and look down. "Once you climb to the top of the mountain, you will see that all the other mountains look short under the sky." ... walk out of the doorman of the community and walk up the mountain road more than 100 meters. In front of you is Manager Gao's "Guo Huashan". On the south slope of the mountain, there is an area of 100 square meters, surrounded by walls and two wooden doors closed. A huge iron general in the middle seems to warn people that no one can enter unless the owner is there. Walking into the fence and looking around, you can see a unique cave, criss-crossing bluestone paths and terraced slope protection made of slate. The ingenious design of the project made me appreciate the courage and originality of the master. Grapes, pomegranates, apples, cherries and plums on the hillside, watermelons, fresh melons, eggplant, beans, peppers and tomatoes in the field form a colorful picture. There is a wooden house between the two mountains under the slope protection, which is the place where the owner rests. Next to the wooden house are several reservoirs filled with water. Several winding and rugged canals connect the ponds and terraces, which can drain the water and irrigate the drought ... From a distance, the ravines are continuous, the mountains are undulating, the terraces are layered, and the mountains are endless. It's really the sound of a stream, and the clouds move with the peak. This is the "Huashan" of "Gao Manager" and also the "clubhouse" of "Gao Manager". There is her sweat and hard work, her laughter and singing, and her happy dream in the future.
Look! The sun is hanging on the fence on the hillside. Under the sun, Manager Gao smiles foolishly while picking apples. I took out my mobile phone and Kaka recorded this happy moment. I have asked myself countless times where happiness lies. In the quiet country, in the noisy town, in the ends of the earth ... I finally saw it after my sister's footsteps-happiness is at my feet. Ah! Sister, I don't know how to repay you. Welcome the moonlight, I want the clearest glass. In the afterglow, I hold the warmest sunshine; Burning red leaves, I picked up the hottest one; I picked the most brilliant bunch of lush grass; In the long life, I choose the happiest one-give you my ordinary and great "cry, sister".
