What was life like as a child after 70 s and 60 s? Let's talk about it

I am born after 70, and I really want to share my childhood with you. Perhaps not all the childhood life after 70 is the same, but it is basically the same, not as big as the gap between children's childhood life now. As a generation after 70, memories are always dominated by nostalgic emotions, and sometimes we can't help exaggerating the beauty of the past. After all, it was a poor time, and children's lives were not as colorful as today. But objectively speaking, it is not as sad and painful as those who have never experienced it. The childhood after 70 has its own unique happiness and happiness.

At that time, childhood life was simple and there was no academic pressure. Although you can't eat a few meals of rice and fish a year, coarse grain mussels can still ensure food and clothing. Although it is a common phenomenon that clothes are patched and "my brother is too small to wear", I can wear new clothes or newly modified clothes, shoes and hats during the Spring Festival, which makes people miss the excitement and joy of expectation. Although it is compulsory for every child to dig vegetables, feed pigs and feed chickens after school, the homework is completed quickly, and there is no other pressure to make up lessons and study. The children concentrate on playing and release their nature. Although there are no novel technologies such as mobile phones and televisions, the boy fan card (which was folded with cigarette case paper or other hard paper at that time) was not sold later. We call this Fan Pià (Ji), knocking, skating, kicking shuttlecock, playing with mud balls (glass balls came later, and mud balls were made by ourselves in the early days), and girls jumped rubber bands, kicked pockets and played "Gaha". It seems that children who play mobile phones at home or are busy with various "interest" training classes are happier and more carefree.

Childhood events have gradually become blurred and distant. I'm glad to use this topic to recall some interesting past events. Compared with today's children, children at that time were mostly ignorant. Fortunately, they gained some knowledge by reading.

I spent my childhood before I was ten years old in a remote village in Tongyu County, Jilin Province. My hometown is vast and sparsely populated. I remember that the nearest village camp is only six or seven miles away, so two nearby villages set up teaching points. The whole school has three rooms, two classrooms, a teacher's office, two teachers and four grades. The students of Grade One and Grade Three are in the same classroom, and the students of Grade Two and Grade Four are sitting in the same classroom. After teaching the first grade course, the teacher asked them to leave some homework, and don't listen to the lessons after the third grade. Leave some homework for grade three and then go back to check the learning situation of grade one. And so on, but also scattered and orderly. Today's children may think this is ridiculous, but at that time, I felt that schools should be like this. I didn't know that the new school could have so many teachers and classrooms until I moved out of my hometown in the second semester of the second grade.

I can't remember when I was a freshman or a sophomore last semester. Once I went to the village (then called the commune) to participate in the competition. At that time, I was as nervous and novel as grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden, and the concept of "centrism" was extremely "tall". I was so nervous when I saw an audience I had never seen before when I watched the game. I was reading extensively at home. Fortunately, there is also a dictionary contest, which can be fully displayed without many people watching it. I got the ranking and the prize. The scene of that year is still vivid, and it is unforgettable with sweet shyness.

After 70 s and 60 s, our feeling is that the countryside is a vast world, with blue sky and clear water, farmers' kitchen smoke curling, cattle and sheep full of circles, chickens barking and dogs barking, green grass in the lake and fish and shrimp full of ponds. After school, our childhood friends came out together, playing fighting games, groping and exerting our nature.

At that time, carefree, lack of material, wild vegetables, wild fish in the river are easier for us to dig and catch. It is a kind of delicious food that often appears on our table. The fragrance and fishy smell often haunt my dreams. Rivers and ponds are the world where we play in the water. In hot weather, a group of friends plunged into the water, swam breaststroke backwards, and the simplest dog crawled. There are many kinds of tricks. (Generally, adults supervise on the shore. ) when are you tired? At the urging of adults, I went ashore to wear a house. When I was hungry, I ate two steamed buns and drank some cold water to cope.

At school, learning is easier, with two main courses: English and math. Homework is done in class, and there is very little homework. I never feel pain and fatigue in my study. Learning is easy. At most, because the playful homework was not finished on time, the teacher made up, handed in the homework bag and flew out of the classroom like a cheerful bird.

Reading after class was very difficult at that time. The books I wanted to read could only be borrowed from my classmates. In order to thank my friends, I finally gave them one or two fruit hard candy. Picture books are our favorite. Every Sunday, we go to the nearby market to read books. Give the stall owner 3 or 5 points and enjoy the tour. My favorite is the battle comics "Long March", "Red Rock" and "Darkness before Dawn". The storylines of these picture books deeply touched us post-60s. The hero Tao smoked us simple teenagers. At that time, movies were also our favorite, such as tunnel warfare, mine warfare, private Zhang Ga, heroic sons and daughters, the snowy forest, plain guerrillas, wildfires and spring breeze fighting against ancient cities, and so on. The heroes in these movies lead the growth of our generation.

Innocent childhood, simple life, relaxed and happy study, inspired by the heroic spirit, our childhood partners entered the military camp one by one and entered the highest institution of learning. Later, some took up leadership positions and some became researchers. Give play to your light and heat in different jobs.

I was born in the 1960s. When we were young, we didn't have a TV, no cell phones, and only watched movies. In rural areas, open-air movies are shown every few days, and every brigade shows them, so every brigade follows older children to see them. After watching it get dark, I ran home with my older children. If I ran slowly, I would lose my companions and be afraid of ghosts. At that time, there were no ghosts, just afraid. In the town cinema, I can't bear to see a corner of a ticket lined up. Because I don't have any money, adults bring it in at an early age and don't spend money. When you are old and have no money, you will follow others to squeeze in, and when you are young, you will sneak in and have a look. There was no entertainment before, and the cinema was the most lively and full every day. That's where we go to play every day.

Also, we live by the Han River. We didn't have an electric fan when we were young, and it was very hot. Usually, when we children are at four or five o'clock in the afternoon, the sun has not set. Just take a towel at home, find some companions, and come to the river to soak in the water to play, because our river is a piece of sand and the dike is made of stone. About a few hundred square meters of water is sand, and the water is only about one meter deep. If you soak in it, your feet are safe. You're not afraid of something stabbing your foot. The water is neither deep nor cold. It is safe to play in the river, so family members can rest assured. On the raft, I held the mattress alone, took a sheet and slept on the levee. Although there were a few mosquitoes, it was cool with the river wind, and I slept until dawn. This is the advantage of our summer heatstroke prevention.

When we were young, we had many brothers and sisters and we didn't eat well. We wear the old ones and the young ones continue to wear them. But I don't feel bitter. Every day, a large family leads a lively life. Although I was poor at that time, I was really happy and simple, and I wouldn't tell lies. This is how I spent my childhood and adolescence.
