On July 6, 1976, the weather was surprisingly hot. The fiery sun scorched the earth, and there was not even a trace of wind in the air,

In the dam production team, everyone is in full swing harvesting early rice in the field.

The heat wave rolls, the threshing machines roar, and the rice fields are noisy.

Although it was already early afternoon and the water in the fields had already been scorched hot by the sun, the people who were bent over and busy had no intention of going home. Perhaps, the task is not done yet. Their patched clothes were already soaked with sweat, and the air was filled with the unpleasant smell of each other's sweat.

However, after a while, there was a sudden panic shouting in the rice field, and I saw that one of the big-bellied women was holding her stomach and screaming, looking at her high and abrupt belly, and then looking at her painful expression, I am afraid that she is about to give birth.

So, the people who were working next to her hurriedly put down the work in their hands and carried her home with all hands and feet.

When she got home, the mother-in-law rinsed the mud off her feet with water, and then, with the help of her husband, helped her to lie on the bed, and then the husband turned around and ran in a panic to call the midwife.

Water began to boil in the hearth, and several older women silently watched the mother, who was already screaming in pain. They had been invited to help by their masters, and because they were all from the past, they fully understood and sympathized with the woman who was struggling because of the pain.

Alas, who calls herself a daughter? Even a woman will not escape this fate!

Soon, the husband hurriedly returned with the tall, big, white midwife, Grandma Sun.

Grandma Sun didn't have time to take a sip of water, so she asked her husband to take her to the mother's bedroom to check the situation, but it didn't matter if she didn't look at it, she was startled when she saw it, it turned out that the child was coming down, and her hair was already exposed.

So, she quickly asked her master for a large film to put under the mother's buttocks so as not to stain the bed.

After a while, the child was born, and it was a girl. But the strange thing is that everyone did not hear the loud cry of the baby they were expecting, and when they looked closely, the child's face turned purple.

So, Grandma Sun hurriedly turned the child upside down and patted the baby's buttocks with her hand, and this time, she finally cried. But the child's cry was not clear and loud at all, it sounded like a male duck's call.

Seeing this, Grandma Sun shook her head at the grandmother who came to bring boiling water and said, "Auntie, you can only look at the creation!"

At night, looking at this angry child, the family was at a loss.

In the second half of the night, the grandmother suddenly noticed that the child seemed to be not breathing, so, after hesitation, she put her on the chicken coop, thinking that the next morning, she would take it to the mountain and bury her.

Who knew that the grandmother got up the next morning and looked at it, and found that the child was not dead, but still had a faint breath, and his body was soft and warm. So, he quickly picked her up and asked the child's mother to breastfeed. Seeing that the child could suck, the mother-in-law was a little relieved.

In this way, the child was miraculously brought to life.

Rural people like to make their children's names cheap, and the cheaper the better. Because they firmly believe that giving a child a cheap name will make her healthier and safer as she grows up. So, the family gave the child with an extremely tenacious vitality a loud nickname "Chicken Nest Girl".

In this way, until the time the chicken nest girl went to school at the age of eight, she did not have an official name.

That day, Jiwo Mei's grandfather took her to sign up, but the teacher said that she must have a proper name, because she had to fill out a form and establish a student registration card.

The reception of their husband happened to be a young female teacher who was transferred from the city, and I heard that it was public.

After the teacher heard about the situation of the chicken nest girl, he took the initiative to give her a very foreign name called "Tian Tian", and her full name was "Shen Tian Tian".

"Chicken Nest Girl" likes this name very much, because after the well-known female names such as Feng Yaxiang, Hua Yali, Yingya, etc., her name "Tian Tian" is different and fresh.

was finally able to go to school, Tian Tian was very happy.

That day, she hugged the new textbook that still exuded a strong smell of ink, and went home happily with her friends in the same room.

When the people were still on the sunbath, she rushed and shouted, "Grandpa, grandma, grandpa, I'm back!"

Seeing that her grandfather leaned out when she heard the voice, she hurriedly raised the textbook in her hand ecstatically and said, "Grandpa, look, I got a new book!"

Seeing his granddaughter blossom, grandpa also laughed.

He took the brand-new books from his granddaughter's hand and sat on a bamboo chair and flipped through them curiously.

"Grandpa, I'm going to wrap up my school, they said, this way, it won't rot so quickly. ”

"Good. ”

Seeing that his grandfather agreed, Tian Tian was very happy.

At this time, the grandmother wore a straw hat, carried a hoe, and walked in barefoot, from outside. She looked at the grandfather and grandson with some consternation.

Tian Tian saw that her grandmother was back, and happily reported to her grandmother, "Grandma, I have a new book!" ”

Grandma sat on a bamboo chair and fanned the wind with a straw hat while smiling and looking at her silently.

Suddenly, Tian Tian seemed to think of something, turned her head to stare at her grandmother and said, "Grandma, I don't have a schoolbag yet!

Then, Tian Tian's eyes rolled and said, "Grandpa, I want to buy a pencil and a homework book." ”

"Okay, how much?"

Ashenggu said that a pencil costs five cents, a small book costs five cents, a large homework book costs seven cents, and an eraser costs two cents. ”

Tian Tian's grandfather was an employee of a state-owned enterprise before he retired, and he received a salary, so it was no problem to buy a book for Tian Tian, so he agreed without hesitation.

After lunch, Grandpa got a few big pieces of brown paper out of nowhere, and he sat at the dining table, carefully and patiently helping Tian Tian wrap the book covers.

After a while, several texts for the main subjects were wrapped.

Tian Tian looked at it, it was really exquisite! I couldn't help but admire how clever my grandfather's hands were!

She stroked the beautiful book cover, and how happy Sensei was!

In particular, her grandfather also helped her write the words "mathematics" and "language" on the paper, and in addition, the words "Shen Tiantian" were written in the lower right corner of each book.

Grandpa's words are so beautiful, and they are very comfortable to look at!

The next day, Tian Tian ate a rice ball with sugar, and walked on the way to school with the schoolbag made by her grandmother, she couldn't hide the joy in her heart, and lo and behold, she was grinning all the way!

In the chaotic classroom, Tian Tian stood there with her schoolbag on her back and didn't know what to do.

Because it was the first day of class, the teacher had not yet had time to arrange a seat. Therefore, it is necessary to occupy a position by yourself.

The door and window of the first grade were full of senior students who came to see the excitement, including Tian Tian's big brothers and sisters in the same room.

So, they all pointed out to Tian Tian, some people told her to sit in the third group, some people told her to sit in the second group, some people said that the first row of tables was good, some people said that the third row was good, and some people said that Tian Tian was so tall that she wanted to sit in the last row.

Tian Tian didn't know what to do, because he didn't know whose advice was correct, and he didn't know who to listen to.

In the end, I simply chose a clean position and sat down.

It was a window seat, the last row of the first group. Looking out of the window, you can clearly see the students pulling out the wall, hopscotch and kicking shuttlecocks on the playground, and you can also see the people who go to the market on the path 50 meters away.

That's nice!

Tian Tian liked the location.

In this way, Tian Tian started her journey to school.
