Reborn in the 70s / Reborn in 1978

Due to the age, this era in the Northeast can only be played in winter, and there is no flat place to play in summer.Except that the road is asphalt, most of the rest of the place is in its original state, with the loess in the sky.

Most of the people are carrying wooden carts, the big ones can only be held with both hands, and the small ones are the size of an egg, no matter how small they are, they can’t play with them, and they are not heavy enough, and they will fly away when they are pulled.

It is possible to fill it with lead, but it is too complicated, and no adult will spend that much effort on it.

Li Shucai's was also painted red, unlike other people who are all the natural color of wood. After playing for a few days, it won't turn black, and it can't be wiped clean at all.

What Zhang Xingming used was not wood, but steel, not much bigger than a pen cap, but very heavy, weighing less than half a catty. There are still a few people on this ice rink who have this kind of steel, which arouses the envious eyes of children.

It's not that steel is better than wood, but when you are different from most, you will attract attention. Children often envy things and angles that are not normal.

This kind of steel is actually a part of the heavy-duty mine car. It is only available in the big car class above the mine. The eldest sister works there, so she brought back a few. The same is true for other steels that have this kind of steel. Someone in the family works in the big car class, and it is impossible to have it in other places.

The approved load of the car is 175 tons, and the body is wider than the road.I remember Jackie Chan drove a car in one movie and crashed into the villain's house.The tire height of that car was close to four meters.

This is an old part that was replaced. It is not considered to take advantage of the public. The advantage of it over the wood is that it runs longer and more smoothly.

So climbing pears lined up over there, and gangsters started queuing up again here, Zhang Xingming simply threw the gangsters to them, and went to smoke someone's woods by himself.

As soon as the whip was lowered, it turned very fast, and when it was about to stop turning, Zhang Xingming whipped it up again, Zhang Xingming thought to himself: What's the point of this thing?It's not as good as climbing pears, at least it feels like lightning when it slides.

To play on the ice, you must move. If you stand still for a long time, the cool air will come through.

When the cool air comes up, if you don't want to be guilty, the only thing you can do is change your shoes.

So when you go to the Northeast in winter, those who are standing on the side of the road or waiting for the bus at the bus station, if you look carefully, none of them are standing still, they are all moving their feet non-stop.

Also, don't lie down on the ice.It doesn't matter how thick you wear it.

In the snow, just stand up and shake and pat it. The snow will fall. If you lie on the ice, your clothes will get wet, no matter how cold it is. Once your clothes are wet, you will immediately understand what the Great Northeast is. .

Chapter 26 Chinese New Year, Grenade

ps: Signed the contract, let's post two chapters to celebrate.Thank you for your support, there would be no today without you, thank you.

As soon as the school is on winter vacation, the Chinese New Year is not far away.

The factory began to distribute New Year’s benefits, frozen pears, fish eggs, shrimp, oil, rice and white noodles, couplets with blessings on window grilles, and lanterns and firecrackers for a few years in the early 80s.In the Northeast, there is a custom of hanging lanterns in every family during the New Year.I don’t know what kind of pear is frozen pear, and it is only found in the Northeast. It is a pear that is frozen into a solid ball, black. When eating it, put it in cold water, and the water that touches it will start to freeze. One and a half centimeters thick to cover it, take it out and smash the ice, the pear becomes soft, bite into it, the skin is a bit rough, ice and sweet, revealing the tender and delicate pear flesh inside, with a lot of juice, very delicious.

Every household began to make red bean buns, fried sticky cakes, steamed sticky bean buns, deep-fried dough sticks, steamed buns, fried noodles, fried rice noodles, and cleaned the inside and outside of the No. [-] large tank, and put all the fried noodles into the tank. Once poured in, a large tank is filled, covered with a lid and put in the warehouse, you can take it as you eat, and it will not spoil if it is frozen.Children don't need to heat it, they eat it right out of the tank, it's ice, crisp and sweet.

When everything is ready and ready, the new year will come.

The Chinese New Year atmosphere in the city is stronger than that in the countryside, with denser people, more money to live on, more types of goods, and better welfare conditions than in the countryside.

Thirty to.Get up early in the morning, paste Spring Festival couplets, blessing characters, couplets on window grilles and doors, and the adults start preparing for the reunion dinner at night. Chicken, fish, meat, eggs, shrimp, and pig feet are a must, called Grilled Choi, and pig head meat is a must, called Nafu, fish It is more than enough, chickens spread their wings and crown, and there are many unique foods in Northeast China, such as blood sausage, egg sausage, meat sausage, mandarin duck sausage, and powder sausage.Stew a sauerkraut.At that time, there were no vegetables, and every household was full of meat.

It was getting dark after the reunion dinner, and the adults hung up the red lanterns high on wooden poles, and began to make dumplings, which were to be eaten in the middle of the night, and they would be put into the pot after twelve o'clock.In the beginning, wax was still lit in the lantern, but then someone pulled the wires and lit a 25-watt bulb in the lantern, turned it off in the morning and turned it on at night, until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

The adults make dumplings, and the children are fine, so they run outside in groups to play.They all had whips in their pockets, and some were holding Chihua and Zhantian monkeys, and they ran and released them, shouting loudly.

In those days, there was no TV and no entertainment. After making dumplings, the neighbors would get together to play poker, and they didn’t win any money. They just played and had fun.At about eleven o'clock, the children began to go home, and it was time to set off firecrackers.This is another amazing thing. Without a mobile phone or a watch, how can we judge the time?Still very accurate.

During this period of time, it is also the time when the on-duty leaders of the factory come to the family area to pay New Year's greetings. They go to the homes of those employees who have to go to work in the [-]th night to see and express their condolences.It is also impossible to go to all of them. There are tens of thousands of workers in a factory, and there are thousands of workers in their thirties.I don’t know how to elect a few representatives. The leaders walked around, said a few words, and then went back. It’s already twelve o’clock here.

The winter night is silent, and the white snow illuminates the dark world so brightly that one can see everything.From time to time, children's laughter came from somewhere, dissipating in the night sky.Red lanterns hung high in front of every house, dyeing the air red and looking so festive.

At twelve o'clock, the silence was suddenly broken.For a moment, flames flickered in all directions, deafening explosions filled the sky and the earth, and the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder smoke.The children dressed in new clothes jumped and cheered in the flickering firecrackers wearing cotton hats, and their joyful smiles were so bright in the halo of firecrackers and lanterns.

Amidst the sound of firecrackers resounding all over the world, burning colorful balls of light fly from every corner to the night sky, everywhere you look.All kinds of large chihuahuas also came on the stage one after another, and a tree of bright multicolored silver flowers two or three meters high bloomed in the front yards of each house.At this moment, men, women, poor, rich, all smiled, with hope for a better life in the coming year in their eyes.

Entering the house, the child kowtows to the adults and gets a lucky red envelope of a few cents, which is beautiful.

Then it was cooking dumplings. The two families sat together and ate the dumplings lively. Somebody would bite into a piece of steel, and there was a ouch, and they held their cheeks to suck in the cold air, but their faces were beaming.Zhang Xingming didn't want to lose his teeth, so he poked each dumpling with chopsticks before eating. His mother said, "Why is this poor kid so thoughtful? You don't want to make a fortune? Just buy delicious food."

Zhang Xingming pulled a dumpling that had been pierced into the steel collapse into the second brother's bowl, and said, "I'm so young, I don't want to make a fortune, just wait and eat." The second brother looked at the dumpling and said, "Then my dumpling Do you want to eat or not?" Everyone laughed, and Zhang Xingming patted his second brother on the shoulder and said, "You must eat it. This is the fortune I gave you. You won't get a toothache, and you can get rich." The second sister Said: "This little story is beautiful. Others want to get rich and have to grit their teeth. It's great if you feel comfortable." Zhang Xingming nodded and said: "Yes, that's it. When the time comes, I will buy beautiful clothes for my second sister. .”

Brother and younger brother shouted: "I want it too, I want it too." Zhang Xingming picked up a dumpling by himself and said, "I didn't run away, everyone has a share, eat quickly, and go to bed after eating."

The eldest sister said: "In your family, Erming is like the boss, and he is a lot older." The mother said: "This child has been different from other children since he was a child. He is doing well." Zhang Xingming said to his mother: "Don't worry, Mom, once you are promising, you can just wait and enjoy the blessings, that's all."

After eating the dumplings, the adults had to watch the night, and the children fell asleep. Zhang Xingming got off the ground and put on his shoes, took a cotton hat, put it on, and was ready to go out.

A few people were setting up tables to play poker, and my mother asked while shuffling the cards, "Aren't you going to sleep? You have to go out now."

Zhang Xingming said: "Dachang Xiaoming and the others have made an appointment. They are going to go out for a run. Coax the children. I guess they are going to use spit balls to spray other people's lanterns. I will watch the fun." Mom said: " My god, it’s justifiable to say that you go out and cause trouble, just let someone cut it back and don’t cry.”

Dad said: "Whose lanterns are you spraying on? Don't go there if you hate them. Don't go." Putting on cotton gloves, Zhang Xingming said, "Who knows who's house? Let's spray whoever catches them. If I don't go to them, I will I have to spray, but I won’t do it, what are you afraid of?”

Dad said: "We won't go, and we won't go if we don't do it. We are more sensible than them, oh. I'll take you to throw the grenade. After throwing it, come back to sleep."

Dad stood up, fumbled under the kangqin cabinet for a while, took out a cardboard box, opened it, and there were a dozen hand grenades neatly stacked inside. It looked like it was rolled in kraft paper, and there were more than a dozen of them.

Mom said: "Oh my god, when will this thing come back, how can it be done?"

Dad said: "I brought back a box of training ammunition for militia training, and I forgot about it when I was busy setting off the whip."

Mom said: "You can talk shit, can't this thing hurt people?" Dad was checking the flash caps one by one, and said: "It's okay, the cardboard ones are louder, not lethal." The second brother came over to watch, looking very interested.

The eldest brother asked: "How do you put this thing?" Dad picked up one and said: "It's like a real hand grenade. Unscrew the rear butt flash cap. Look, this pull ring is put on your finger. Pull hard, wait for three seconds, and throw it out, throw it hard, the farther the better."

Dad was carrying a grenade, Zhang Xingming and his eldest brother and second brother followed behind, and came to the downstairs of the dormitory in front of the yard, the office building, there was a hollow space of more than a hundred square meters downstairs, and the four of them ran to the open space. At one end, Dad put down the cardboard box, took out a grenade, and threw one out while explaining.A few seconds later, a huge flame flashed across the open space, and several people heard a buzzing sound in their ears, feeling that something had collapsed from the other end of the open space, hitting their bodies and faces, but it didn't hurt.A few pieces of glass windows on the first floor of the dormitory were shattered, and the glass fell with a clatter and hit the ground.

The elder brother and the second elder brother were rubbing their ears. Dad was a little surprised, with a look of disbelief, and said: "If this is equipped with an iron sheet, it will be a real grenade. This power is not small. Come on, I can't throw it here. I thought It’s gunpowder, this is filled with explosives. Come back quickly, the dormitory will be found later.”

A few people trotted all the way back home again, and when they entered the house, their mother asked, "Why did you come back so quickly? I heard a sound. This thing is so loud that the shaking window panes are buzzing." " Dad was a little embarrassed, scratched his head and said: "I didn't expect it to be explosives. It blew up several pieces of dormitory glass. I was afraid that people would find it, so I hurried back." Mom laughed and said: " What's your whole thing called? Tell me, you're quite an adult, and you don't know what this thing is?"

Dad said: "It's the first time. It used to be live ammunition. This time I gave some of these things back. I haven't used them yet." Yes, the militia battalions of some companies even have heavy machine guns, all with live ammunition.A few years ago, young Red Guard generals attacked the factory headquarters, and the militiamen rushed to the ground and beat them back. At that time, the bullets rebounded and injured several people, but no one dared to say anything. Under full force, nothing could be done.At that time, the national militia organization, Jingcheng Iron and Steel, was the most powerful. It had walked through Tiananmen Square and was received by Chairman Mao. It even had tanks.

Throwing the grenade died halfway like this, but the eldest brother and the second brother still took two of them. As long as this thing doesn't blow up directly on the person, it's no big deal, so my father didn't care, and put away the rest.Zhang Xingming knew what was going to happen, but after thinking about it, he still didn't make a sound.It didn't hurt anyone, at most it was a bit of a joke, and it's not a big deal, it's a big kid these days.

So, at [-]:[-] a.m. on the first day of the Lunar New Year, there was a loud noise in Lao Wang's house, the third room behind Zhang Xingming's house.The glass of the rear window of the outhouse (kitchen) was completely broken, and the pots and pans were scattered all over the floor. The old Wang’s wife was so scared that she ran to the yard in only her shorts and vest. Well, Zhang Xingming thinks about it, the eldest brother and the second brother and Wang Wei have been fighting for several years since then, and they will do it when they meet.This feud is a bit big.

This bombing woke up the entire area. Some came out to find out the situation, and those who had nothing to do with themselves started cooking. My mother scolded my father and elder brother and confiscated the remaining three grenades.

Chapter 27 The Troops Are Coming

ps: Please support, please recommend collection.

After the year is over, school starts.The second semester of the first grade has begun.Zhang Xingming began to look forward to it.

In May 80, a regiment-level engineering unit entered the compound opposite the boiler room as scheduled.

Zhang Xingming's house is the most important part of the entire mineral processing factory, which is the top. From the house of Zhang Xingming's house to the top, there are 36 family members' areas, one by one, all the way to the river, and then there is an open-pit mine. the boundaries of the land.

From the main entrance of Zhang Xingming's house is the dormitory for the staff of the mineral processing plant, which is a typical red brick building with the letter I of this period.

On the upper floor of the dormitory is the boiler room and the water pipes. Residents in this area have to carry water from here to eat and wash clothes here.There is another I-shaped red brick building separated from the staff dormitory by a driveway more than ten meters wide. Zhang Xingming didn't know what he did before the troops moved in, and he had no memory.
