After the ears of wheat that were smashed on the ground by the hail dried up, Tian Kunhe and his wife took a group of children to get busy in their wheat field.

Everyone took a small broom and a small bag in their hands, swept the ears of wheat into piles and piles, loaded them in the old ox cart and pulled them home, dried them and ground flour to eat, otherwise there would be no white flour to eat at home this year.

This hot summer vacation in 1983 was unforgettable for 18-year-old Tian Sui, 16-year-old Tian Zhuang, 15-year-old Tian Xin, 13-year-old daughter Tian Dou and 12-year-old son Tian Cao, and 8-year-old Tian Shan (dog leftover).

In this scorching summer, they braved the scorching sun, faced the loess with their backs to the sky, and forced 30 acres of wheat ears and wheat grains to be taken back to their homes little by little with brooms.

Some of the ears of wheat were soaked in the water melted by the hail and began to sprout and rot, and the hungry Tian Kunhe also took the moldy wheat home and ground it into flour.

Like the Tian family, the wheat growers in Guangren Township went out to sweep the ears and grains of wheat on the ground with brooms to ensure that the wheat grains were returned to the warehouse.

Due to the fact that the land of the first production brigade is less than that of other communes, Zhang Xilin's family of six divided 24 acres of ration land, which is the best plot in Guangren Township.

Zhang Xilin's family's 10 acres of wheat were also hit by hailstorms, and his whole family was sweeping the ears of wheat on the ground with brooms.

Zhang Shanshan, who went back to his parents' house to help with the work, wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked up at the sun in the sky, and shouted unhappily to his mother Hu Su: "Mother, when is the eldest brother coming?!" Why is he riding his bicycle half a day slower than we can walk?! ”

Listening to the resentment in her daughter's words, Hu Su ignored her daughter, she knew that her eldest son Zhang Zhongming was cheating and playing tricks again.

When he was about to go out just now, the whole family went out at the same time, Zhang Zhongming asked them to go first, he said that he would follow on a bicycle after locking the door.

But they have been busy for most of the day, and they haven't seen the figure of their eldest son Zhang Zhongming.

Zhang Xilin, who was familiar with the temperament of his eldest son, sighed softly, shook his head helplessly, he looked at the ground from afar, and saw Zhang Zhongming riding a bicycle like a snail crawling slowly towards this side.

In order to delay more time on the road and do less farm work, Zhang Zhongming rode his bicycle on the field trail at an almost stationary and slow pace.

Maintaining the slowest pace while making sure he didn't fall off his bike, Zhang Zhongming swayed from side to side with his hands on the handlebars, like a circus acrobat performing a snail on a slow bicycle for the audience.

Zhang Zhongming twisted the handlebar and crawled forward crookedly, no matter how slow he was, he had to reach the destination, and this twenty-minute walk was crawled by him on a bicycle for more than an hour.

When he came to his own land, Zhang Zhongming looked at the wheat grains on the ground with a sad face, his little eyes and bones turned around, and he thought about it.

Zhang Zhongming slowly put the bicycle stand in front of the ground with his feet, and then gently pressed the back seat with his hands to see if the bicycle would fall, and he was very "uneasy" to move the bicycle in place several times.

Seeing that the eldest brother had been "busy" for most of the day with a bicycle on the ground, Zhang Zhongxin, who was honest, looked at his wife Deng Qing, who was sweeping the ears of wheat with a big belly next to him.

The wife here was squatting on the ground with great difficulty, holding the ears of wheat in her hands and putting them in her noodle pockets.

And the big brother who placed the bicycle on the ground over there kept moving the bicycle that was conspicuously in the way.

Zhang Zhongxin finally couldn't bear it anymore and sneered loudly: "Brother, you hurry up and come to the field to sweep the wheat, just leave a little ant for our Guangren Township No. 1 Production Team, don't let the ants of our Guangren Township No. 1 Production Team be out of business." ”

Under the urging of his younger brother, Zhang Zhongming walked to the ground slowly, I don't know if he really didn't understand the ridicule in his brother's words, or pretended to be confused and didn't understand.

He didn't work with a broom, he stood in place and humbly asked his younger brother Zhang Zhongxin, "What do you mean don't let the ants of the first production team of Guangren Township go out of business?" ”

Zhang Zhongxin glanced at his brother who was going to steal and play tricks all the time in disgust, and said mockingly: "The ants on the road of our first production brigade have already let you crush all the wheels of your bicycle to death. ”

The younger son's words made Zhang Xilin, who swept the ears of wheat, cry and laugh, and Hu Su also frowned and looked at Zhang Zhongming, who was holding a broom and sweeping the ears of wheat, and secretly made up his mind that this time he would give up the family's blood and pay a heavy dowry, and also marry a daughter-in-law to this mournful eldest son, so that he could live alone.

Since he didn't eat the big pot of rice, and each family was divided into ration contract land, the eldest son Zhang Zhongming's problem of stealing and playing tricks was undoubtedly exposed.

At noon, in order to work more, the peasants of Guangren Township did not go home to eat, but took out the steamed buns or dried naan they brought in the morning, drank some cold boiled water, and had a makeshift lunch.

Zhang Xilin's family was no exception, after lunch, they began to get busy again, and in the evening, the family went home with brooms and other tools.

Carrying several bags of ears of wheat behind the bicycle, Zhang Zhongming hurried home on his bicycle, and disappeared as soon as the smoke slipped.

In the early morning, peasants of all ethnic groups carrying hoes rushed towards their fields, and he was so skillful that he rode slowly towards his fields like a snail.

The people on the side of the road watched him hold on to the handlebars in order to maintain balance, thinking that he would fall to the ground, and they couldn't help but sweat for him, but Zhang Zhongming, who was almost stationary, just couldn't fall, and the handlebars twisted and swayed, and a straight route to the ground was simply ridden crookedly by him.

In the No. 1 Production Brigade, Zhang Zhongming, who went out to work, rode his bicycle like a snail and flew back to his home after the acquisition, which has become a peculiar and strange landscape, and has also become a topic of conversation for farmers and herdsmen of all ethnic groups after tea and dinner for many years.

After many years, with the development of society, the means of transportation are also much more advanced, he rides a motorcycle to work in the fields, and can keep the same speed as a snail as a passerby on foot.

At the end of this year, for Zhang Xilin's family, the family changed, and the eldest son Zhang Zhongming finally gave up his blood and money to marry Fu Fang, a girl from a family 50 kilometers away, under the three-inch tongue of Song Matchmaker.

Fu Fangniang's family asked someone to come to Guangren Township to inquire about Zhang Zhongming's personality, because Hu Su sat on the old ox cart every year and smashed the iron basin with a wooden stick to scold the street, no one dared to tell the truth.

After the wood was completed, Fu Fang's family found out that this Song matchmaker was really clever and could say that the dead were alive, and she could lay eggs and hatch chicks as the rooster said, but it was too late.

As soon as Guangren Township heard that it was the daughter of the old Fu family in the countryside 50 kilometers away who married Zhang Zhongming, they all sighed for the honest old man.

Tian Kunhe inadvertently knew that the old Fu family and Zhang Xilin had become in-laws, and thought, it's bad, this old Fu family is really unlucky.

In the past, Tian Kunhe went to the commune where Lao Fu worked as a carpenter and dealt with Fu Laohan, and he knew that Lao Fu of the same age was a man who was as upright, hardworking, honest and kind as him.

In 1984, another exciting news was broadcast on loudspeakers in the streets and alleys of Xinjiang.

Since 1974, it took nearly ten years to build the Duku Highway, which directly passes through the natural hazards and runs through the north and south.

After ten years of hard work, this is located in the Tianshan Mountains, the north-south trend, from Dushanzi in the north, to the Qiuzi ancient national treasury in the south, across the Kuitun River, Kashgar River, Gongnaisi River, Bayingolin River, Kuqa River five major rivers in the Tianshan Mountains, through China's famous alpine grassland Bayinbrook grassland, and the Tianshan east-west direction of the Mayi line, Wuyi line, Yiqiao line, Yiruo line, Daka line five highways connected to the three-level highway successfully completed and put into use.

Under the very difficult construction environment and difficult construction conditions at that time, 168 soldiers who built this road were laid to rest here during the construction of 10 years, the oldest of them was 31 years old, the youngest was only 16 years old, and thousands of officers and soldiers were injured and disabled.

How difficult it is for the Second Traffic Corps of the Armed Police Force to build the Tianshan Highway to carve out a road on this high snow-capped mountain.

The soldiers played steel drills on the cliffs, tied safety ropes, and "played autumn fibers" on the cliffs like swords and swords, and the people tied to the ropes swayed back and forth in the air, and every move was facing the test of life and death.

Shooting eyes, clearing the slag, eating and sleeping, and peeing on are the living and working conditions of these unsung heroes in the past ten years.

These officers and soldiers fought against the ice and snow and the cold, withstood the test of life and death, they took suffering as happiness, created a miracle in the world with blood, sweat and life, and also created the earth-shaking "Tianshan Spirit", which is also this spirit This road is called the road of heroes, and one of the Duku Highway later became the road of Internet celebrities in the 21st century.

On this highway built by the soldiers with their lives and blood, many stories have happened, and Chen Jungui, who guards the Jorma Martyrs Cemetery, is one of the people who built the Duku Highway.

In a snowstorm in 1980, Zheng Linshu, the squad leader who went with him, and Luo Qiang, the deputy squad leader, left him the hope of life in order to let him reach the rescue point for help, and they fell forever on the way to help.

After Chen Jungui was demobilized, he remembered the squad leader's deathbed entrustment, he gave up his stable job in his hometown, and took his wife and children to guard his former comrades-in-arms in the Jorma Martyrs Cemetery in 1985.

For Tian Kunhe of Guangren Township, his niece Tian Tao is facing a choice in her life, she is about to leave Xinjiang with her godmother Lin Hong.

After the county normal school moved to Yining City at the end of 1983, Tian Tao, who stayed in the school, also went to work in the normal school with the school and was responsible for the school library.

Since the school librarian has more time to review her homework, Tian Tao's life trajectory is moving according to her expectations under Lin Hong's manipulation.

Two years ago, Lin Hong put Tian Tao's household registration in her household registration, and the two were commensurate with mother and daughter.

With the implementation of relevant policies, the relevant policies of Lin Hong's parents of high-level intellectuals who really couldn't stand jumping off a building together have also been implemented.

A university in Lanzhou has solved Lin Hong's work and has sent an order.

Because of the early communication with Lanzhou, Lin Hong had proposed to the other party to solve the work of his daughter Tian Tao.

This letter of transfer was issued by Lin Hong and Tian Tao, Lin Hong is a professor at the university, and Tian Tao, who has changed his name to Lin Tao, is still working as a librarian in the university because his education is only at the level of a middle school teacher.

is about to leave his hometown, and as the day of leaving Xinjiang is getting closer and closer, Tian Tao's heart begins to be confused, anxious, uneasy, anxious, contradictory and entangled.

Looking at Tian Tao, who was restless, Lin Hong decided to accompany Tian Tao to Guangren Township to visit Tian Kunhe's family.

Tian Shan, who hadn't seen his sister in the past three years, was so timid that he stood by the door and looked at Tian Tao from afar, and Tian Tao, who was standing outside the house, looked at his 9-year-old brother with mixed feelings, tears welling up.

She crouched down and stretched out her hands towards her brother, "Dog, come, come to my sister." ”

Under the greeting of her aunt Ji Yue'e, Tian Shan slowly moved her steps and walked towards her sister step by step.

Last time, his elder brother Tian Liu came to Guangren Township to slap his parents before going to the grave, which left a shadow in Xiao Tianshan's heart.

Since he was a child, he felt that his mother Zhao Xing and brother Tian Liu didn't like his Tian Shan, for fear that his sister Tian Tao, who he hadn't seen for a few years, would dislike him.

Seeing his 9-year-old brother so alienated from him, Tian Tao, who was ashamed, stepped forward and hugged his younger brother and cried loudly.

Tian Shan, who was nervous in her sister's arms, reached out to wipe her sister's tears, sobbed and said, "Sister, don't cry, don't cry." ”

Tian Tao opened a large bag of things for his younger brother, there were popular really good cloths, a lot of candy, and a sprinkler gun that Lin Hong bought from Lanzhou.

Before leaving, Tian Tao went to her parents' grave and burned some yellow paper, lying on her parents' grave, crying so much that she was weak.

Tian Liu, Tian Shan, Tian Kunhe and his wife and Lin Hong and others who came together looked calm, and for a long time, with the support of her brother Tian Liu, she followed her relatives to Tian Kunhe's old ox cart and was reluctant to leave.

Late at night, Tian Liu, who slept on a big kang with his cousins, couldn't sleep, so he walked out of the door to breathe, only to see his sister leaning against the wall next to the stable of his uncle's house, looking up at the deep starry sky.

In the quiet night, the cool breeze was bleak, Tian Liu was in a melancholy mood, looking at his sister not far away, he felt nostalgic, this was one of the few nights that his sister stayed in Xinjiang, thinking that his sister was about to go away, his heart ached faintly.

Tian Tao looks like her mother Zhao Xing, Tian Liu looked at her sister in a distracted manner, and couldn't help but think of her mother who had passed away for many years.

He walked lightly towards his sister, but he didn't take two steps before he stopped, only to see a little crystal teardrop rolling on Tian Tao's long eyelashes, the original charming and agile eyes were eclipsed at the moment, and the empty eyes revealed a faint loneliness, melancholy and melancholy, like a delicate flower turned into tears, which made people infinitely pity.

Tian Liu has not seen his sister Tian Tao for two years since he went to the University of Finance and Economics in Urumqi, and for some reason, recently, Tian Liu always feels that his sister seems to be overwhelmed by heavy things.
