On April 8, 2011, Chiba wrote a journal "Childhood Fun Stories" about his childhood memories.

When he was five years old, he began to study in the first grade in Yanliuya Village, when he went to the mountains to herd cattle alone. Then he went to Qiangongxing Middle School in the township to study in the fifth and sixth grades and junior high school, and later went to Yutang in Jiaqing to study in high school, and now he is studying at Tiancheng University in Tiancheng City.

When I was a child, I was very lively, not sensible, my aunt often took me to the neighbor's house to watch TV at night, at that time there were only two families in the village, my grandmother often carried me, and turned my grandmother's head angrily where I wanted to go, and when I was a little older, I often went to the field with my grandmother to work in the field, and often went to the neighbor's house alone to borrow things, not thinking about anything, and not being afraid of anything, probably because I knew very little.

At the beginning, we had a cow in my family, when I was only four years old, and when the cow refused to leave, it cried, sometimes there were three, and I also raised a few sheep in the middle, and I went with my friends in the village, and there were people of different ages. There are two types of cattle, one that needs to be bathed in the water, gray or white, and the other yellow or black. When grazing, the cow does not walk fast, but the sheep walk very fast, so the sheep herder should always keep an eye on it, and do not let them run into other people's vegetable fields or fields. Sometimes they are driven into the mountains or valleys, and they are almost completely unlooking, and there is nothing around for them to steal food.

Spring and autumn are generally from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., summer is generally from 6 a.m. to 11 a.m., 3:30 p.m. to 7 p.m., this is not to give the cattle extra grass to eat, when someone in the family goes to mow the grass in the morning, there is no need to put it in the afternoon, in the summer afternoon on the mountain in the hometown that section of the slope is particularly hot, in the winter can be given dry straw to eat, just occasionally let it out for a walk.

Playing hide-and-seek in the mountains, some hiding behind stone fences or stone holes, some huddled in the bushes, and some clinging to the grassy slopes, this game is very popular.

Playing cards together on the stones, mostly played, and sometimes with paper as a bet. The gameplay is: *, 2, 7, *, 2, *, 5, 10, K, end to end, with bottom...... Gambling paper is generally the first kind, if it does not take the risk, the person who shouts can mess around, there is no point, we often play the first two, especially the second kind, in Chinese, the main can be promoted from small to large, or grouped, both interesting and fun, each game will be affected by the front, very fulfilling.

Vegetables are "that kind" plants to compete, to see who is good enough, and after getting it, there will be a taste and stickiness.

Roasting corn and sweet potatoes with friends in the mountains is much more delicious than making them at home.

Take the dog to play, catch insects and the like, and you can also help chase rabbits, and it is best in winter when you can see footprints.

Pick "that kind" spider to play, there are four oblique white thick lines around the center of the web, use a thin branch to drive two spiders to the other branch, the thin branch should be flattened to be fair, if possible, you can take the thin branch on the water in the field, when they fight, the little fart will spit out white sticky silk, hold the food, and bite for a long time, the water operation is to prevent the timid one from escaping directly. The awesome guy takes it home directly, the twig is inserted in the wall, and it will produce a new net after waking up tomorrow, and usually catch some butterflies, locusts, dragonflies, and small spiders of the same kind for it to eat, in fact, its own web will also catch something to eat, but it grows very slowly, not as good as the neighbor's Long Jianguo. The growth of spiders is in stages, first of all, the belly continues to increase, and after reaching the limit, it begins to molt and shed its shell, the length of the newborn legs increases a lot, the belly is very small, and then it begins to eat again, and so on, the same cycle as a snake.

You can start playing chess by drawing a chessboard on a stone, and there are many different types of chess. The first three are generally played by children, the fourth is slightly older, about 10-15 years old, the fifth is our Xiangxi specialty, a special protected animal, the general youth, adults and the elderly play, about 13-80 years old, the sixth is familiar to everyone, and it was only later introduced to us.

In addition to the pure natural chess, there are also some partners with their own land chess and chess, these two are also quite fun, there are two ways to play land chess, one is a formation, one is blind, and chess is also.

Climb to the top of the hill for a ride and see the scenery below, sit on the highest rock, and look at the meadows, woods, cattle and sheep, rocks and beyond below.

In a certain season, with hand digging tools, a pit in the mountains is dug to burn charcoal, and there are many roads in the past, and a branch of a large tree or a small tree in the bushes is cut from the woods, a certain kind is better, and it is divided into several sections and put it in, and then a fire is started underneath.

Pick wild onions in the meadows or vegetable fields in the mountains, and mix them with chili peppers to cook and eat or spices for other dishes when you get home.

Running to the woods to pick mushrooms, there will be in a specific season, there are several kinds of precious, there is one can be directly burned in the wild to eat, if you get more, take it home to cook, if you get more, you can take it to sell when you rush to the market, we have five markets nearby, five days a cycle, but only three often go.

Climbing high in the tree to cool off, the feeling of being in the tree is not the same as on the grass, it is much better in the air than on the ground, you can sit on it or lie down a little.

Find a peak nest or bird's nest in the forest or bushes, the young of the peak can be burned and eaten, and then I like to eat directly, I heard that you can also avoid evil, and you can take down and raise the bird you like, I have raised a total of three, we have rumored that people who have touched small birds will tremble when they take things, and when they see a big eagle like an eagle, they will throw stones directly when they are not paying attention to it on the grass or stones, I once caught a waterfowl with my bare hands, the feathers are grayish-brown, and the beak and feet are long, if you are lucky enough to see the kind of big meat-eating birds, Be careful when you pick them up, they will fly over and peck you or hook them with their claws, and the nests of that type are usually on very tall, very old, very large trees, and some are built on the edge of cliffs.

In the grass or in the barren vegetable fields, locusts and small frogs are rummaged with small wooden sticks or feet, and packed in small bamboo buildings, some of which are directly eaten by the birds they bring with them, and the rest are saved for the afternoon to be given to them, and those who do not have birds are brought to the chickens raised at home, which grow better than those that eat rice, rice, corn or sweet potatoes.

When I was in the third year of junior high school, my parents and relatives went to work in a brick and tile factory in Zhejiang......
