Portable Space: Rebirth in the Red Era

When Du Xuanjin regained consciousness again, she felt very unbelievable. At that time, she really felt death. Could it be that she is not dead, but still alive.Du Xuanjin tried to open her eyes, but she couldn't open them no matter what. She tried to move her hands and feet, but found that she seemed to be imprisoned in a small space, unable to stretch her body.There seemed to be something constantly squeezing him around, and there was a noisy sound coming from his ears, which couldn't be heard clearly.

What's wrong with me, is I dying or already dead.The squeeze became more and more serious, and I couldn't breathe. Suddenly, there was a force pulling me, and the pressure disappeared suddenly. Then I felt a pain in my buttocks, and I couldn't help crying out, but what I heard was a baby crying Crying, before Du Xuanjin understood what was going on, she felt that her consciousness was out of control and fell asleep.

When Du Xuanjin woke up again, she found that she was wrapped in a package, and her hands and feet were out of control. When she opened her eyes, she couldn't see clearly, but she could feel that it was a gentle smiling face.And he was held in his arms, dangling back and forth.Looking at the blurry and somewhat big face in front of her eyes, Du Xuanjin wondered if she had been reborn after taking over the portable space. It seemed that those novels on the Internet were also based on facts, and she had spread both of them.Looking at the gentleness of the person in front of him who should be his mother, and the warm embrace, he probably won't be abandoned this time.Before she could figure it out, Du Xuanjin fell asleep again, who made her a newborn baby now.

The villagers of Qinghewan, a small mountain village in the deepest part of a certain province, just finished their New Year’s Eve dinner, and they all knew that the eldest daughter-in-law of Lao Dutou, who lives in the innermost part of the village, was celebrating the New Year’s Day. At midnight, I added a daughter to Lao Du's family. Everyone said that this child was born at a perfect time and would be in time, so she must be a lucky person in the future.

Du Xuanjin was not very clear about how the villagers congratulated Lao Dutou's family, and how Lao Dutou's family invited neighbors, relatives and friends to a feast. All are sleeping.All I know is that there are people coming and going all day long around me, from one embrace to another, chattering and buzzing. [

As the days passed, Du Xuanjin began to secretly observe her home when she was awake.This is exactly the big family in Du Xuanjin's dream, with kind grandparents, gentle mother, father who doesn't seem to be strict, lovely brothers, and uncles and aunts, it is a super big family.Judging from their attitudes towards their children, knowing that she is loved in this family, Du Xuanjin has never been so thankful for God's care for her, and for giving her another chance, a chance to have a warm home.

In the following days, Du Xuanjin fully enjoyed this kind of family affection and indulged in this warmth.Eating, drinking and sleeping every day, even if his beard pricked my face every time my father kissed me, and when my brothers poked my butt with their fingers, Du Xuanjin would still giggle happily, which made my father Brother and the others liked to tease her more and more.

Du Xuanjin grew up day by day, and gradually realized that this family seemed to be not ordinary poor. The layout of the home seemed to be in a modern society, but there were no electrical appliances in the house, and kerosene lamps were still lit. The family clothes seemed to be made of cheesecloth. There are patches. Seeing that the family members are all disheveled and malnourished, it is estimated that the food is not good.Could it be that my family is in a backward mountain village, but it looks poorer than the poorest mountain village I have ever been to.I must work hard to let my family live a good life in the future.I don't know if the space I got by accident is still there.But now someone is taking care of me all the time, so I can't experiment now.Even if I am still a newborn baby, I can't show it to my family.Even if you are gone, there is nothing to regret about having a warm home.

The life of a baby is very good, and in a blink of an eye, Du Xuanjin can already sit and crawl, her little arms and legs are chubby, and she is very strong.What father and brothers liked most was to let Du Xuanjin kick them with her tender little feet.Du Xuanjin is very cute, with big black eyes, a small white face, a small straight nose, and a small ruddy mouth, she has completely inherited the advantages of her parents.Every day when my father comes back from the field, he can't get enough kisses. Even the most serious feudal patriarch, grandpa, would hug him for a while every day. It can't be seen at all that he is a patriarchal old man.Now the family has not given Du Xuanjin an official name, they only know that her surname is Du, and the family always calls her Ya'er Ya'er.It is said that her grandpa said that she was so good when she was born, and she was afraid that she would not be able to bear the burden of choosing a name early, so she first chose a nickname, which is easy to support, and then she will be given a big name when she grows up.Although it is very common, Du Xuanjin likes this name, it represents her family's blessing to her, even if Ya'er gets a big name in the future, her family will always call her Ya'er, never her name.

In the eyes of the family, Xiao Yaer is definitely the most obedient baby. Every time she wants to poop, she will hum twice, rarely use diapers, and rarely cry. She plays when she is full and sleeps when she is tired.But for Xiao Ya'er, the most embarrassing moment is when she can't control the poop on the diaper, although she just feels so.My brothers like to change her diapers the most. My sister's little face turns red every time she changes a diaper. It's as red as an apple, which makes people want to take a bite.The shyest time for Xiao Yaer is every time she takes a bath. At this time, her brothers gather around the basin, sneak up on her sister's butt from time to time, and then have heated discussions, such as "Oh, my sister is so white, my sister is so fat Ah." "Why doesn't my sister have a penis?".

In short, for Ya'er, the baby's life is generally happy and chatting. During the process of eating, drinking and sleeping, the days pass quickly.Ya'er began to learn to speak, to call people, to stand up, and to toddle.After learning to walk, Ya'er never idles for a moment. Like a little duck, her little butt twists and turns, and her chubby short legs walk around all day long. Don't let go.

One after another, from family conversations and her own observations, Ya'er learned that she was reborn and returned to that special and poor red age more than 40 years ago.It is now 1966, the year when the ten-year "red revolution" just started. My home is located in a small mountain village deep in a certain province. The commune stretches over 30 miles, and the village has 6,70 households with a population of less than 1000.The climate here is suitable, the four seasons are distinct, coupled with the unique geographical environment, the forest resources and water resources should be quite rich.Although due to the reasons of the times, the life of ordinary people is poor. The staple food of ordinary people here is often sweet potato rice, corn cakes, steamed buns, and wild vegetables without oil and water. It is already very good to fool a full stomach compared to other places.It's just that when there is no oil in his stomach, Father Du will sometimes go to the mountains with the uncles and uncles in the village to hunt some wild game and come back. Every time he can share a wild rabbit, pheasant, fish or something.

Due to the inconvenient transportation, it is almost isolated from the outside world. The red revolution that has just started outside is far away from this remote mountain village. The villagers still live a life of sunrise and sunset.The only effect is that due to the beginning of the epidemic, the children who are still in school have no way to continue to go to the town to study.Of course, they didn't go to start a revolution. They were all called back by the elders of the family one by one, and they all honestly worked at home to earn work points.In the words of my grandfather, "To start a revolution is bullshit. To ordinary people, the world is big and the world is the biggest thing to fill their stomachs." With one sentence, the little uncle was called back from school.

The family members currently living together include grandparents, parents, two older brothers, and a younger uncle.Ya'er is usually put on the bed. Grandma is not in good health and can't do the heavy work in the field. She usually sews, mends, washes and washes at home, cooks for the family and raises chickens and ducks.Brothers also hunt pigweed every day and help grandma clean up.Du's parents, grandpas and uncles work in the field all day to earn work points, and Du's mother usually comes back to feed once in the middle.

The yard of Ya'er's house is a typical small farmyard. It is in the innermost part of the village, and not far behind it is a group of mountains stretching for hundreds of miles.But Ya'er discovered that her main house turned out to be five large tile-roofed houses with green bricks. The houses are very tall and have a lot of space inside.According to the living standard of this era, this is definitely at the level of a small villa.It was only later that I found out that the house was left by my grandfather’s father and my great-grandfather. Before liberation, my great-grandfather, who was engaged in a big business, donated all his property to □, and brought the whole family back to his hometown to build this ancestral house with the remaining money.Grandpa is the eldest, and the other brothers have gone out to participate in the revolution. Until now, the news is complete, and grandpa has been staying in his hometown waiting for them to come back.

In the middle of the main room is the living room. On the wall is a unique portrait of Chairman X of that era. In the middle is an Eight Immortals table. On the table are two foreign porcelain jars with white porcelain and red letters, on which are written "serve the people" in big characters .On the left and right sides of the living room are suites, one light and one dark, which are simply separated.On the left is the room of grandparents, and on the right is the house of Ya'er's family.In the rooms on both sides are the north and south kangs, and there are two small cabinets on the top of the kangs, which contain the family's clothes.It is said that the cabinet was Grandma Du's dowry back then, and it was older than Father Du's, and even the red paint on it was almost faded.At the end of the kang are two neatly stacked old cotton quilts that have been washed cleanly.

The yard is very large, surrounded by a one-meter-high earthen wall.On the left side of the main house is the kitchen and the well, and on the right side are two mud houses with adobe walls and thatched roofs. The little uncle lives in the one near the main house, and the other room is empty. Sometimes the aunts live there when they return to their parents’ house. Night.The second uncle's family lived in the same village as the second aunt's natal family. It is said that because the second aunt's natal family only had the second aunt's child, the second uncle's family moved there to live with them and take care of them. It is said that it was proposed by Grandpa Du. He is not afraid of others saying that his son has become a door-to-door son-in-law.The second aunt's parents are very grateful to Grandpa Du for his understanding. The relationship between the two families is very good, so the second aunt is also very filial to her parents-in-law. Sometimes she does not forget to ask her cousins ​​to bring a bowl of delicious food.

The backyard is very large, with more than an acre of land.One side is reclaimed private land.The small one usually grows some home-cooked vegetables, the big one is used to grow sweet potatoes and corn, and now only cabbage is still growing in the field.They are all built with fences, and the chickens are afraid that the chickens and ducks at home will harm the crops.On the other side are pig pens, chicken coops and toilets.There are two big fat pigs in the pigsty, and the pigs are credited to the two brothers who kill pigweed every day.There are 7,8 or chickens in the chicken coop. I heard from grandma that chickens and ducks should be raised according to the head. The head of the chicken and the duck should not exceed the head of the person. You can’t raise more. If there are too many, it will become a corner of socialism. It's from under the chicken butt.There are a few jujube trees, pear trees and persimmon trees scattered around the courtyard wall. Now that the weather is cold, the jujube and pear trees are all bare. Cover with a white layer of icing sugar.

After the autumn harvest, the family also had a little leisure time.Farmers can only have a good rest for a period of time after autumn harvest and before spring plowing throughout the year.From the smiling faces of the family, we can know that this year's harvest is good, but it is a pity that Ya'er will not be able to see the magnificent scene of the autumn harvest.

Although they have a little leisure time, Father Du and Mama Du still have to go to work every day.Mama Du and the aunts and aunts in the village went to the mountains behind to pick wild fruits, harvest chestnuts, break pine cones, and pick mushrooms, while Papa Du and the others hunted wild boars when they were fattening. If you don't have enough to eat, you will go down the mountain and harm the crops in the field.The harvested wild game is handled by the village in a unified way. Except for a small part distributed to each household, most of them are purchased by the purchasing station. The folks in Qinghe Bay rely on this income to increase their income, which accounts for a large part of the collective income. of.Of course, my brothers often go up the mountain to pick fruits and mushrooms.Anyway, there are a lot of wild fruits on the mountain. In the past, these half-sized girls collected all of them belonged to their own families.

Entering November, Mama Du stopped going to work and spent all day tidying up at home.Busy preparing winter clothes for the family, pickling pickles, soaking sauerkraut, drying wild vegetables, and packing wild fruits.The unknown wild fruit looks ugly and is not big, but it tastes surprisingly good, sweet and sour, very refreshing. If it is stored well, it can be eaten throughout the winter. Ya'er eats one every day.There are also many dried fruits such as pine nuts and chestnuts, which are children's favorite snacks.Father Du and Grandpa Du were busy going up the mountain and down the river all day long.The villagers plan to hunt more game before closing the mountains and rivers, so as to have a prosperous year.Today I go fishing in the river, and tomorrow I go to the mountains to hunt wild game. Every evening, when I go home, I can share some things back. Grandma Du and Mama Du are busy cleaning up the pheasants and rabbits that have been hunted back. Come out, hang it on the pot and stove to smoke it to make cured meat, clean up the fish, marinate it with salt, and put it outside to dry it into dried fish to be eaten during the New Year.At this time, the little uncle and his brothers were the most relaxed, calling a group of friends to make troubles everywhere, fighting cocks and dogs.

As soon as December came, people from the commune's purchasing station came to the village to collect pigs.It may be because there are more younger sisters in the family, and I feel that I have grown up and become more sensible. This year, my brothers are not lazy at all when hunting pigweeds. The two old sows in the family are both very fat.Only then did Ya'er realize that only one of the two pigs belonged to his family, and the other belonged to the collective.In the end, the 12-jin big sow in my family was sold for less than 180 yuan, RMB □.

On the second day after the pigs were sold, the village head made a broadcast requesting each family to send someone to the brigade to collect the rations and wages for the second half of the year.The next day, when Grandpa Du and Dad Du came back with a scooter, Ya'er learned that his family of 8 people, big and small, only had 1800 catties of corn, 300 catties of wheat, and 100 catties of rice in half a year. On average, an adult only needs more than two catties of grain a day.From Ya'er's point of view, she can't get enough to eat. No wonder the family members look bad. It turns out that they are really malnourished.But the family is very satisfied. According to my grandfather, this year is the best year in recent years.In the most difficult time in the past few years, the harvest was less than half of what it is now. Usually there are two meals, and each meal is thin.Now save a little bit every day, at least you can eat steamed buns when the harvest is green, and wild vegetables and sweet potatoes can also make you feel full.

After unloading the grain and putting it in the cellar and covering it carefully, Grandpa Du took out a small cloth pocket from his arms with a smile and handed it to Grandma Du to put it away.The cloth pocket contains the income of the whole family in the second half of this year, a total of 289 yuan.Because this year, a little uncle also started to earn work points, plus the good harvest, the total is nearly 100 yuan more than the previous few years. [

Grandma Du gave 80 yuan of it to Mama Du, saying it was to save the money from their small house, and gave 40 yuan to the little uncle, so that the little uncle could save it for himself in the future to marry a wife.The remaining less than 170 yuan is the daily expenses of the whole family in the second half of the year. Oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, human gifts and other things are all paid out of it.Both Du Ma and the little uncle accepted it with a smile.Ya'er sleeps with Du's father and mother at night, and often pretends to sleep to listen to their chatter.From Mama Du's words, it can be felt that Mama Du respects her grandparents very much.Although Grandpa Du is a feudal patriarch, he has strict requirements on his children and says nothing at home, but he handles things fairly and impartially.Grandma Du is a kind and sensible old lady who likes every child from the bottom of her heart and does her best to think about them.Although living with the eldest son, the family's financial power is not all in his own hands. After saving enough for the family, the rest is basically given to Du's parents, saying that it is their small family's private money.

Grandma Du put the remaining 170 yuan into the box next to the bed, nagging about the New Year is coming soon, she needs to buy a few catties of brown sugar, and pull a few feet of cloth to make new clothes for Ya’er, the little girl has to dress up Be beautiful.Although life is difficult now, the family is full of hope in the future, and an ordinary life is the most beautiful.
