Just came to the countryside from the city, put down the pen, picked up the pickaxe, and was accompanied by an iron pickaxe and shovel every day, such a life was something Xu Guodong had never thought of in the first 30 years.

Xu Guodong was born in a petty bourgeois family, when he was young, the family's situation was not bad, at least he was sent to study, although he did not stay abroad, because of the changes in the middle, he could not continue to complete his studies, so he could only return home.

I thought that going home was to inherit the family business, and then accept the family's business and do business.

But ah, some people are born into business, and some people?

Even if he has received a lot of new education, he has learned a lot of things and gained a lot of knowledge, but some people are like this, he is suitable for holding a pen, let alone doing business, and he has no chance to even be a soldier.

Xu Guodong is in this situation, when he went home to inherit the family business, the business that fell into his hands had already been extinct, and it was in troubled times, it was not easy to live, let alone let him do business in a small county.

After a few tosses, when I returned to Fengcheng again, the family's little industry had been tossed clean.

The old father died, and he took his mother to escape the war, and traveled to many places, but the chaos was not only a few places, the warlords were divided, and everywhere was chaotic.

The old man, when he was dying, always thought about the fallen leaves and returned to his roots, the war did not escape, the family was consumed, and finally watched the old mother's body deteriorate, Xu Guodong still agreed to his mother's last request, and returned to Fengcheng with the old man.

Not long after the old man returned to Fengcheng, he died of illness, and after Xu Guodong buried him, he didn't have any capital to do business anymore, and he also understood that he was not a material for business at all.

Fortunately, Xu Guodong still has some connections left by his old father in Fengcheng, although it is said that people go to tea and cool, but they still helped him find a job as a teacher.

In a way, Xu Guodong is also lucky, he spent the Liberation War in the city so peacefully, although the days are hard and the life is difficult, but he can be regarded as surviving.

After liberation, Xu Guodong still did his old job, as a small teacher, although the days were hard, he was used to picking chrysanthemums under the east fence, and leisurely saw the taste of Nanshan.

However, when he encountered this educated youth going to the countryside, to be honest, Xu Guodong is really not a knowledgeable youth, his situation, to be precise, should be regarded as a kind of disaster avoidance, an old friend of his father, found out about Xu Guodong's existence, and seemed to have a premonition of something, so he found someone to trust him and gave Xu Guodong into the team of educated youths in the countryside.

At this time, Xu Guodong was in his thirties.

In the more than 30 years of life, although the next few years were very hard, but with a pen and a pen, helping people write letters, it can be regarded as being able to maintain food and clothing, and there is no need to make any efforts.

And what about this person, life is hard, this body is definitely not as strong as those croppers and soldiers, not to mention Xu Guodong, who has always regarded himself as a literati, at that time he was thin and not much different from the disaster victim, but he was dressed in a shabby robe, covering up his thin body, but it also looked a bit of a Confucian.

The book is back to the topic, saying that Xu Guodong followed a group of educated youths to the countryside, at that time, with a pen, as well as literacy and hyphenation, if this is placed in the city, it can still give people metabolic letters to make some money, but in the countryside, this business is gone.

After walking all the way for a long time, this Xu Lao said that he almost died on the road at that time, and when he arrived at the destination, he looked at it, Xu Guodong wanted to die, where is this far, the village is surrounded by several mountains, it is almost said that it is one more mountain, and the entrance is directly blocked.

He still has reporters in that village, saying that it is called Linjia Village, saying that it is Linjia Village, but there are only about a dozen households surnamed Lin in this village, and everyone was curious at that time, but the dozen or so households are not small, anyway, no one will explain.

Later, as time went on, day by day, no one cared about this.

When he arrived in this village, Xu Guodong and a group of educated youths were arranged together, saying that the educated youths went to the countryside, but in fact they were going to work, what kind of transformation, labor reform is indeed the most effective way to transform a person.

He was accompanied by six men, four men and two women.

There may be something in the city, but after arriving in the countryside, there is not so much attention, whether you like to sleep alone or on a wooden bed, Xu Guodong and the three male intellectuals were arranged in a room, a big kang, and it is not difficult to sleep four people.

Working people have their own wisdom, for example, teaching them to work, not to say that it is a hand-in-hand teaching, telling you how to do this action is more labor-saving, what posture is not easy to flash to the waist, how to grasp the pickaxe so that it is not easy to grind your hands out of the bubble.

They only have a few words, more dry.

Before the work, even if it is to you, when it comes to actual operation, there will be all kinds of situations, and they have not compiled these farm work experiences into a book, and they can't tell these things directly to others.

Therefore, Xu Guodong and others can only experience it for themselves, and after doing too much, some mistakes will naturally change slowly.

This is also a truth, called eating a trench to grow a wisdom, doing a lot, and suffering a lot, and knowing what to do is right and what to do wrong.

But if these words are put on Xu Guodong, it is a completely different matter.

Just arrived in the village, Xu Guodong walked such a long way, his body was already weak, and with such a toss, this person's state was not very good, but before he could repair it, he was urged to work in the field.

As a result, after doing this for less than half a day, the person fell directly to the ground, which was completely more out of breath and less in air.

was finally rescued, but people didn't have the strength to work at all, this break lasted for three days, although three days was not long, but it was not short, Xu Guodong's illness could be regarded as leaving an impression on everyone - sick seedlings.

How to say it, otherwise he would work, it would not be in line with the policy requirements of the above, but if he was allowed to work, it was likely that the people around him would have to watch him at any time.

Later, I learned that Xu Guodong was still a teacher and a gentleman, so he could be regarded as finding a suitable livelihood for him, writing big characters, teaching people in the village to read and read, and reading some things to everyone.

In the past, Mr. Teach was very respected, and the ancient scholars and ordinary people were two completely different classes.

People want to study, not to mention tuition, even if they have that time, there is no manager at all, saying that it is ten years of hard study, but ten years of cold window, no food or drink?

The atmosphere in the village is good, at this time, it can be regarded as giving Xu Guodong a way to live, but the village chief talked to him, although he is now teaching, but in this era, I don't know what will happen in the future, and Xu Guodong is so weak, it is not easy to live in this village.

After all, there are many children in the village, and adults may not learn much, but if a village has a scholar in the future, it will be a happy event.

In short, in the end, it is a sentence, this work can be done appropriately, but it can't be done, the health is not good, then slowly raise, while working while maintaining the body.

It's not that when you're full, you'll be strong, and you have to work hard to be able to have strength.

And Xu Guodong also wrote big characters from the very beginning, while teaching, feeding the cattle, cutting and mowing the grass, there is a lot of work in the village, some heavy, some light, the farm work that adults do Xu Guodong can't do, so do the usual work left for children in the village.

Xu Guodong should go down, there should not be and there is no way, as a scholar, he naturally knows what it means to have to bow his head under the eaves, not to mention that now people are still easy to talk about and discuss, and it is indeed for his good.
