College students were rare in those days, and I was a postdoc in adulthood, and there was often one in a village. Even high school students like the two of them, it was also a rare era, and they were simply the pride of a village.

Even in later times, when there were so many college students who went home to raise pigs, it was rare, and it was far from catching up with high school students at this time.

It was not uncommon for many people to drop out of primary school before they finished school. Because this is a time of great transformation, and many people are already in the midst of a struggle. During the period when you can't get enough to eat, how many people think of reading?

Although the impact on the countryside is still very small, because of the artifact of television, everyone has a lot more understanding of the outside world. There are companies that have become aware of the changes that are taking place in the country.

The reason why I know these things is because I vaguely heard my father mention it when he came back and talked to my mother, and he probably had an idea at that time. It was the employees of state-owned enterprises who were too popular in that era, and if they wanted to jump out and do things on their own, they would definitely suffer from tremendous pressure.

My father had an idea at that time, but he may not have been resolute. But as far as I am concerned, in those days, especially in the countryside, this was a shocking act.

I think that at that time, in the state-owned enterprises, there must have been some people who were already active in their hearts, and they later became the first people to go to sea in that era.

Things that don't seem to have anything to do with the story are actually already influencing everyone's lives. Although no one has taken the initiative yet, it is clear that everyone has gradually pursued going out. In my impression, Niu Yongzhen is a person with ideas.

Those who have knowledge must be in demand at this time. At that time, the current situation in the countryside was that there was a lack of leaders, and everyone was still envious of the workers of state-owned enterprises, whose treatment and methods attracted countless ordinary people.

Even with this instinctive envy, the common people have no way to enter, and can only change by going to school. Niu Yongzhen was not admitted to university, and it is said that he gritted his teeth and repeated his studies for a year, which is tantamount to adding insult to injury for a poor family.

According to the teacher, if you repeat the study, you will still be seventy or eighty percent sure, but Niu Yongzhen gave up by himself. Because of his repetition, his younger siblings dropped out of school. I don't know what he was thinking, but he really gave up on repeating it.

According to the rules of the villagers, he did not go to school, so he asked a master to learn to drive. At that time, I still learned to drive a tractor, but for the villagers, it was already a very spiritual thing.

Because the tractor was the best means of transportation in that era, and it was rare to have one or two in a village, it could not be private property. There are some subtle changes in the common people, but I see that some people's lives are getting better and better, and most people are at a loss for this change.

The first time I saw a diesel torch was because of the waste oil that Niu Yongzhen brought back, and I went to catch frogs at night with Jiuyuan. For most families still use kerosene lamps, Niu Yongzhen's willfulness is still very enviable.

Looking at a few of them talking in a low voice, it may seem that I am relatively small, and they don't care about my presence. Because he heard about watching a movie, Jiuyuan asked Niu Yongzhen to go to the next village, Yaoju. Because Niu Yongzhen has a cousin uncle there, the point is that his uncle has two daughters.

I have seen those two girls, the eldest is called Peony, the age is the same as Niu Yongzhen's younger brother Niu Yongshan, and the younger is called Rose, two or three years older than me. Both sisters are beautiful, and I think that should be the biggest purpose of Hisazono.

What they ended up saying, I didn't dare to listen all the time over there, because Hisazono didn't give me a good look. What are the adults doing with the children? I didn't have that awareness, but I walked away.

Because it was Niu Yongzhen's little sister Niu Yonghui, I came to their side. She has a gentle personality, a little older than my little cousin. Although in that era, everyone may have developed slowly because of nutritional problems, but she has gradually had the image of a girl.

She and Jiuyuan's sister Huayuan, as well as her little friend Huijiang's sister Huiyu, the three of them jumped rope together. I don't know why, but I just stayed by them, watching them play against each other over and over again, and I never got tired of it.

Many years later, I still have in my mind the situation from time to time. The old mansion, the big grapefruit tree, and the happy children and teenagers. Although the house is no longer there, standing on that ruin, I still feel infinite emotion in my heart.

The times are changing too fast, or everyone subconsciously feels it, but the people who have relied on the land for generations to eat know how to cater to the changes of the times. Everyone has always believed that the existing policy will not change, the land is still this land, and the mountain is still the same mountain.

What the villagers don't see is that the land of Shenzhou is changing with each passing day, and all the changes in the next few days will make the people on this land dizzy.

The fantasy in everyone's heart is still a dream, and no one knows that this dream of theirs will soon be destroyed. There is still a pure land in everyone's hearts, but they can't stand the crazy entry of new things.

These teenagers and young people have obviously felt the difference of the times. They sang the most popular songs and listened to the latest and most curious things outside. Whoever you are, you will gradually be assimilated by this trend.

I still remember that even when I was close to graduating from elementary school, many people suddenly stopped going to school, which was normal in the countryside. Because there are fewer children born in our generation, there will be a labor shortage in the future of the countryside.

The people's ideas are very simple, and their lives are average, because the family does not have enough labor, so they need their children to work early and share some responsibilities and tasks for the family. So these school-going children were called back and became half of the family's laborers.

This was just an ordinary family at that time, and there were also those who carried out the so-called inheritance in order to have a son. And the families who worked hard to avoid the policies of the time and secretly created people often worried about the problem of rations.

In order to be able to feed each year, parents can mobilize all the people in the family to work. In the era when the land had just arrived at the household, the yield per mu was only four or five hundred catties. It is clear that it is not enough for a large family to live on food alone.

At that time, sweet potatoes and potatoes were also one of the main grains. Moreover, at that time, Xiangchu did not introduce corn as a crop, and each family's wheat often had a harvest of two or three hundred catties a year, which was already very good.

Later, everyone was able to remember the father of hybrid rice, and there was a historical reason for that.

In order to increase the labor force of the family and to obtain more harvest in the fields, the common people often get up early and work late at night. At that time, the villagers seemed to have endless work to do all day long.

Therefore, in every family, the elder brothers and sisters often grow up with their younger siblings, and they have to go out to do some farm work within their ability to relieve some pressure on the family. It is difficult for the children of later generations to understand why people of our generation can do basically anything.

That's because no one at home cares about you, even if you're only three or four years old, maybe you have to do some work, or just take care of yourself. Survival is human instinct, and the generation that grows up in this environment is naturally a small strong force that cannot be beaten in nature.

The policy was to ensure that everyone in the village was literate, so many were forced to go to school again. Although very few people have really done it, it is also because of this policy that many people have re-entered the school.

Everyone can learn more knowledge, which is naturally very helpful for life and their own work. However, at this time, the people often see immediate and temporary benefits. It is natural to let your children help with the work.

Although some parents did not oppose the policy openly, the most common thing they said was that who would do the work at home, and the teachers and schools became speechless. These people who eventually entered the school often had an age difference of five or six years between their classmates in the first class.

If we count five years of primary school, three years of junior high school, and three years of high school, some children graduate from primary school at the age of thirteen or fourteen, and if they go to high school, then they will already be twenty years old. At this time, the villagers generally got married at the age of ten **.

Therefore, these people who can go to high school, but are not admitted to college, are simply the pride of the sky. Compared with the college students everywhere later, and the master's students who are looking for jobs everywhere, it can be said that it is much more bullish.

As for those who can be admitted to university, it is almost the same as being an official.

Because this not only means that there is a college student in this family, but also means that he has left the countryside since then. Like that era when the package was assigned to work, college students would naturally become a person with a job, which was a group of people who belonged to the state.

And going to college at that time made my later parents simply envious. Because as long as you are admitted to university, you basically don't need money to go to school. You won't go to school because your family is poor and you are worried that you won't be able to pay your tuition fees.

The same country, why is there such a big gap in life?

Of course, no matter how everyone exaggerates the beauty of the later era, it is true that in that era that has just started to develop, the country has left too much beauty to our generation.

I heard adults often say that as long as they are admitted to university, especially in the later stages of school, they will already have a salary, and they will be accepted by a unit. After participating in the work in the future, there will be a house share, and I will have no worries for the rest of my life.

Although I also know that this situation did not last long, it has been deeply ingrained in the minds of the people. Therefore, for people who have read a lot of books, ordinary people simply attach great importance to it.

For this group of people, high school students are naturally the elite elements of the local area, belonging to the reserves in the people's army.

In normal times, in the local area, they can not only give priority to finding a job, but they may not know one day, they will be recruited by a certain company to become employees. At worst, you can work as a private teacher near your home, or as a temporary worker in a state unit.

Therefore, these old people and village cadres attach great importance to them, that is, they want to develop some advanced elements, and they also select them from among them. As for joining the party, it is natural that academic qualifications are also preferred, so families often use them as an example for us.

Yonghui and Hua Yuan gave up their studies for each other's brother and became a laborer in the family for the sake of each other's brother.

Because of their constant labor, they are extremely healthy, looking at their youthful figures, I sat on the long wooden square in a daze, and it seemed that I had realized another world.

Their dancing and dancing figures on rubber bands were so deeply reflected in my mind. No one knew that youth had quietly arrived in advance.
