Second brother's prose

Everyone admires others, mostly elders, teachers or stars and celebrities, but the person I admire is my second brother.

? In that era when China was full of mountains and rivers, my mother left us forever because of illness. The first sentence that people who read Sunny Day wrote to Mr. Haoran at the beginning: Three generations, a pair of chopsticks with bones and three bachelors will feel bleak. And my family is three generations, old and young, with five bachelors. It is even more bleak.

At that time, there were no classes at school, and there were no classes to attend. In our family, although grandpa and dad are illiterate, our brothers and sisters may have inherited more genes from their educated mothers. Everyone loves reading. Often under the choking kerosene lamp, from the beginning of "making up your mind", recite the red book, the old three articles and the "May 16th" statement. Although I ate sorghum noodles with big shells at that time, I read very hard. Later, some books were read, and all three of us were top students in the same grade group in our school.

The foolish old man moved mountains and touched God. At that time, I graduated from junior high school and participated in agricultural production for two years in the production team (an inevitable condition), and was elected as the last college student of workers, peasants and soldiers. In our village, although I am a college student of workers, peasants and soldiers, it also fills the gap that there has never been a college student in our village.

? With the high hopes of the whole village, grandpa and dad reminded me with tears. When I saw two younger brothers carrying schoolbags to me on the road, I really had a lot to say, especially when I felt in my underwear pocket for some small bills collected by my family, I couldn't help but burst into tears.

During school, I have been worried about two things, one is my grandfather's old health, and the other is the study of my two younger brothers. Every time my brother writes back to me, he tells me that he has made progress in his studies. When I was about to graduate, my second brother in high school sent me a long letter one day. There is only one theme in the letter, and everything else is reasonable: although he is among the best in his class and has a good chance of winning the college entrance examination, he will give up for the care of his elderly grandfather and sick father, for the sake of relieving my worries about my future work, and for the sake of having a relaxed learning environment for my third brother (he will definitely be admitted to the college entrance examination because of his good academic performance). I wrote it several times, but it didn't work. My second brother's idea has been decided, and what should be done has been done.

As my second brother expected, I didn't go back to the old man after graduation, and my third brother won the college entrance examination.

? The second brother gave up his pursuit, and for the peace of mind of the old man and my third brother, our two brothers were deeply moved. We worked and studied with double energy, and soon, I became the backbone of the unit; Third brother graduated and went to work.

During that time, I often went home, and my grandfather always secretly told me that my second child often shed tears in the face of books and stationery that he had used for a long time.

Now, it's over. I have become a senior intellectual; The work has also achieved certain results, and won the first-class merit certificate jointly issued by the Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Personnel. The third brother is also the backbone of the unit and has become an independent department-level cadre. Although the second brother failed to realize his dream of going to college, encouraged by the party's policy of enriching the people, he has become one of the representatives of some rural areas to get rich first with his intelligence and hard work. Big tile houses, color TVs, motorcycles, automobiles and complete sets of agricultural machinery are all available. Both children graduated from college and found comfortable jobs. Whenever the sun sets, I walk into his yard and see pigeons, flocks of chickens, ducks and geese, fat mules, pigs and sheep, and then look at fruitful fruit trees and green vegetables. The delicate taste is more like an idyllic symphony. But in my heart, although my second brother has a rich material life, it is a pity that he failed to live a college life for me and my third brother.

An agricultural proverb says: Three spring is not as busy as one autumn. Going back to your hometown on National Day? Just in time for the autumn harvest, there are no idle people in the village. At breakfast, my second brother said to me, "Brother, you don't have to go down. You can't take part in all the work in the field. Just set up a vegetable garden at home, pick some fresh vegetables and drink some wine at noon. " In fact, I also know that my physical strength is not as good as before. I really can't. I can only listen to my second brother's arrangement.

My second brother works very hard, and there is no grass in the vegetable garden. I need to water it. I am an old hand at this kind of food, and I don't know what to do. I am a restless person. It's still early, and I'm tired of picking vegetables at noon. I also know that people in the village are busy with their own affairs or leave home aimlessly.

The autumn colors in my hometown are really beautiful. Looking from a distance, a piece of red sorghum in the boundless field reflects the white clouds under the blue sky; Golden corn is shining with golden light; Xiaomi bent down and bowed his head. On the carefree asphalt road, large and small transport vehicles are full of harvested grain and singing the dance music of harvest. Whenever they are out of date, drivers, old and young, known or unknown, will honk at me, and some even wave and nod. This is the custom of hometown people, and people you don't know always say hello. That scene is telling me: Brother, this year is another bumper year, you are happy for us! Looking at the happiness of my hometown, my heart is full of joy.

Maybe it's a habit. I walked involuntarily to the farmland where my second brother was working. I saw the smiling face of my second brother driving a combine harvester. He just said hello to me and never stopped the machine for a moment. I'm not too close to it. I'm afraid it will affect his homework. The changes in my hometown are really great. The harvester I saw in the movie before has now entered the mountain village and my home. My second brother is a driver, and I am complacent for my second brother.

I don't know how the harvester works. I only saw a pair of "giant hands" at the front of the machine. As soon as they stretched out, four ridges of crops were swallowed up. In a blink of an eye, the smooth corn cob was spit into the big iron box I carried with me, and the straw was broken and spit evenly on the ground. Was turned to the ground by the big shovel at the back. Only one person not only harvested the corn, but also returned the straw to the field.

When I arrived at the farm, I didn't see how the second brother operated. I only saw a box full of corn lying in the transport car driven by my sister-in-law, and my sister-in-law drove the corn to the yard at home. This series of actions is really like acting. So skilled and fluent, I am proud of my second brother and second sister-in-law. They are already one of the representatives who get rich first in some rural areas.

Seeing that my second brother is busy, I don't think I can really help. I said to my second brother, "I'd better go home and prepare lunch?" Second brother smiled, your freedom, I really don't have time to accompany you. I started my next trip.

I am a good cook. Busy for a long time, I got a table, all of which were newly picked from the garden and wanted to eat. ...

At noon on the wine table, my second brother and I talked about the changes in my hometown. My second brother said, "Brother, although you have worked in the countryside for decades, you can't farm any more because of the popularization of a large number of agricultural production technologies!" "

"Why? I can't farm? Wooden-framed glasses-I can't see through them! "

"Yes, it's true. People in your time really can't farm now. Don't believe it. You will understand as soon as I say it! " My second brother said something to me, which really left me speechless.

"At that time you learn farming from the old cultivators of the production team. It can also be said that you learned the farming methods of your ancestors for thousands of years. This is really an arduous task and a true tradition. A pair of plows need a plow, a seeder, two fertilizer filters, and three plows need a cultivator. A pair of pear sticks with 5-6 people can't plant five acres of land in one day, so plant them after awning seeds 10 day. There are more than 0/00 laborers in the village/kloc, who get up early and get greedy at night. As a result, there was not enough food in the end, so we had to eat it ourselves and sell it back. Look at how we farm today! We plant more than 50 acres of land, farming without cattle, all mechanized, and we farmers can control all kinds of agricultural machinery. We adopt a non-tillage farming method. The seeds are single and the chemical fertilizer is an instant hit, so water-saving drip irrigation is adopted. We use conservation tillage and other methods to return straw to the field, which can not only reduce labor intensity, but also increase soil fertility and reduce farming cost. We use a seed coating agent, and there will be no shortage of seedlings caused by underground pests. We can use herbicides reasonably, so as to end the heavy physical labor such as weeding in the field under the scorching sun. In addition, plastic film mulching extended the frost-free period 10 days, and high-yield crops that could not be planted many years ago also entered the farmland openly. Your fantasy when farming:' The grass is dead, the seedlings are alive, and the land becomes mysterious!' Now it's basically realized! "

My second brother's words left me speechless.

? The second brother looked at me blankly, and then took over the topic: "Brother, thank you for the good policy of reform and opening up and the concern of the CPC Central Committee for agriculture, rural areas and farmers." . Without the central government's increased investment in agriculture, rural areas and farmers and the great development of agricultural science and technology, it would not be possible to have today. You may not know that your sister-in-law has already spent money, and it will take me two years. We also have the same red book as your staff and cadres. Although we are not as much as you, if we count our farming income and various subsidies, our income is not less than yours. It's not that we can't farm any more, but that society is developing too fast! This tells people from one side that agriculture is developing and the countryside is changing. Farmers have the upper hand! "

After listening to my second brother, I sincerely admire him! I'm blushing! An agricultural veteran cadre who has worked in the countryside for many years was asked by his younger brother, or am I not studying enough? At the same time, I am more happy for today's farmers. Mechanization has really penetrated into farmers' homes, scientific farming and scientific management. I am happy and gratified by the great changes in the countryside!

Bless second brother! I wish all the brothers and sisters engaged in agricultural production a bumper harvest every year!
