It was a difficult time, around the seventies. Because the family has no money, the tinkling of life is often the last meal but not the next, and there is basically no security in life. Like all the countrymen, I work for the big collective every day, engage in agricultural production, and live a life with my face facing the loess and my back to the sky.

At that time, I had grown into a young man, although I lacked nutrition, my stature was shorter, and my development was quite normal. However, it is unfair treatment to me, I contribute more than others, but the work is less than others, they use me as an animal, in this regard, in that case, I did not complain at all, but I know very well in my heart that they treat me as a fool, treat me as an animal, and people have never treated me as a normal person. I have only one wish, which is to give half a share of work. At that time, my uncle said, even if the work is less, it is many times stronger than the collective debt, because if you don't work, you will owe the village.

In this way, I did a lot of dirty work and hard work throughout the year, but I couldn't eat enough to wear warm clothes, and the hard and hard life of life made me get a certain amount of exercise, and at that time I thought that I wanted to get rid of this life and live a happy life. However, compared with those who are not good at the composition, my family has the same benefits, because of the good composition of my family, no one comes to criticize me, and I do not participate in the criticism of others, I see them criticize each other, it is also a kind of joy in life, because I am more honest and duty, I live the same life as ordinary people.

On the eve of the reform and opening up, I followed my uncle to do some small business in another country, and the main projects I operated were to set up a small food stall on the side of the road, or to sell needlework, agate, daily necessities, daily utensils or something, or to sell a cold powder or something during the slack time, which was to invigorate my family's economy. At that time, the government was not allowed to engage in capitalist tails, and my uncle and I also secretly came out to do this kind of business. However, even if I don't do it secretly, no one cares about my bourgeois tail, that is because people discriminate against and look down on me, and more of an element lies in the pity for our life. However, in my thoughts, I don't have this feeling, like all people, I know that doing this business is also a matter of the morning, whenever the farmers rush to the temple fair, catch up with something, or collectively hold some large-scale activities or something, or hold some general meeting, I will come out to do some of this small business, generally speaking, no one pays attention to these things.

At that time, this business was not very good, and no one could afford this business, especially in the snack business, there were not too many people who had money to eat, and people who ate out were even rarer. Therefore, there is always a match for business, often in a dry stop, stop and stop, business is always in an abnormal state, from the heart, there is another kind of worry, for fear of being cut off as the tail of capitalism, but also afraid of being regarded as the object and typical of the mass criticism meeting, it can be said that at that time I did these small businesses were trembling, walking on thin ice, not so open-minded.

The project I operate is handed down from my ancestors, mainly based on haggis soup, plus I have innovated a kind of big cake called egg cake, and there is a staple food that everyone likes to eat, and I call it shortbread in that place, also called mille-feuille, these things are my local characteristics.

My little vendor was on the opposite side of the commune compound, on the edge of the T-junction where the commune led to another path, which was close to the middle of nowhere. I heard that although there was a head of the house, because he had not lived here for many years, the grass was overgrown all over the hall, and the windows were broken and covered with cobwebs. In addition, the material of the house is an adobe house, the walls have been immersed by wind and water for many years, there is no tile on the roof at all, valuable things have already been stolen by people, the rest is broken bricks, and cobwebs are all over the wall, and the ground has become a paradise for rats, seeing that the house is about to collapse, but some of the walls are still standing on a corner of the street.

I repaired some of the walls with mud for the parts that could be used, repaired the ventilation areas with weeds and mud, and hung them up as a gate with a curtain, so that from the whole it looks like a home.

After smashing the "Gang of Four", the country implemented reform and opening up, people wanted to liberate the productive forces, and the government encouraged some people to get rich.

I encountered a good policy of reform and opening up, people have been disgusted with the past poverty, poverty is not socialism, development is the last word, there is food is a good article, let some people get rich, so as to drive the other part to the road to prosperity, regardless of the white cat and black cat, catching the mouse is a good cat, at that time I also thought, what is tossing every day, my belly is not good, what is the doctrine of this, that doctrine, what is the effect.

At that time, people have engaged in the tertiary industry, the government is to encourage people to get rich, the way to get rich is to borrow money from the bank, in order to change the face of poverty, government officials in order to make achievements, eager to find a way out of poverty, people realize the most realistic problem, these years of poverty toss, people have no money in their hands, to develop production, the most critical factor in the liberation of the productive forces is a problem of money, after finding the key to the problem, another problem that people face is guts, In recent years, people have been tossed enough by a kind of thought, their minds are not emancipated, they have no courage to be a man and do things, they just want to live comfortably, who dares to borrow so much money, at this time, some government officials are anxious, and there is an ultra-left phenomenon in their work, in order to complete the tasks of their superiors, they even give the people in the village targets, increase projects, complete targets, and strive to get rid of poverty, just like this, people also do not have the courage to do these businesses.

Just when people were running away from these problems, my mind was completely liberalized. Why? I'm barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes, I don't have so many worries about being afraid of wolves and tigers, as long as I can eat, as long as I can eat well, what do I care about it so much? Having milk is a mother, today no matter tomorrow, walking one day and talking about one day, this kind of thinking often dominates me, I borrowed a large amount of money from the commune, so I did a lot of work here, and when it was running, I still had a small reputation.

At a clear moment, the master came to his ancestors to burn paper, I heard that I occupied other people's houses, people saw that I was poor and destitute, so that they had pity, and they did not ask me to pay any fees, but to let me live here at ease, only to take care of the personal look at this house, with the support of the main family, I am here even if I officially started the tertiary industry.

This may be the first kind person I met in this life, this person is the person who helped me the most later, and is also the father of my lover - Vice Mayor Wang.

It didn't take long to open for a long time, because I was honest and not cheating, the quality of service was first-class, the quality of food was relatively hygienic, and it was economical, so that after a long time of operation, I was also famous, and I was a leader in the commune to get rich. In the village and the commune, I am regarded as a model of advanced models, and we are often praised for our ability to cater to the current situation, so there are many people who come to me for dinner.

At that time, my uncle proudly said to me: "Farmers use labor to exchange food for farming, we use our strength to convert food for money, and another point is to exchange our ideas for benefits." It means that we are stronger than others, and the strength lies in the emancipation of the mind and the flexible use of means. But then again, the facts have fully proved a truth, this stall must be much more than my income from farming in the countryside, although it is not very rich, but raising a family and protecting the mouth is not a problem at all, not to mention that it does not take much effort, this job is very suitable for us.

Standing in the middle of the street, we will also point out the country, saying that this is not good, that cannot be done, and that human courage is effective, and if you don't enter the tiger's den, you don't know if there is a tiger, haha...... These things, we dared to show off at that time, I had three small coins, and my hands began to burn.

Therefore, our small life is more than the upper than the bottom, and compared with other farmers in the village, I still live a leisurely life.
