Nightmare loess

During the "May [-]st" festival, the educated youths are noisy and on holiday. It is because the spring farming is very busy, so how can the team allow it.

After the wheat harvest, there was a flood, which made people exhausted and in shock. In addition, the soybean sprouts were injured and returned to the city, and the educated youths were a little depressed.I can't bear it.At this time, the collective stove was up, and the breath of student life gradually came back to us. Everyone eagerly hoped for a short break after half a year of suffering in the dark, so they encouraged the head of the stove, Liu Shuqing, to ask for leave from the team.

Since the start of the collective stove, the contact between the educated youth and the production team has depended entirely on Liu Shuqing: it was not Shuqing who asked for donkeys to carry charcoal, pull carts to buy vegetables, cook stoves, and even hold meetings to study, criticize struggles, and assign work. In the team, it is in the team to find Shuqing.Shuqing is a microphone.Shuqing is a real person, he will not reincarnate, and he will not refuse. Whoever asks him to do something, he always agrees, and then tries his best to complete it.What's more, the collective stove is everyone's trust in him, a heavy responsibility.

After everyone urged, Shuqing bit the bullet and went to Lao Hu to ask for leave.Lao Hu is the branch committee of the brigade branch in charge of educated youth.

"Everyone can't wait for a while, let's take a rest for two days." Shuqing told Lao Hu.

It is said that there is no holiday in the countryside, and it is busy from the beginning of spring to late autumn.Lengmiaogou has a lot of land, and it can't be planted, hoeed, harvested, or harvested.As long as the suffering person can still move, he will be in the ground every day.The team has never given time off to the suffering people, and Lao Hu was unsure, so he discussed with Lao Jia, Lao Shen, Liu Shusheng and other branch committee members.Lao Jia said: "The children in the city have suffered for more than half a year, and the torture is not enough. Let's rest for two days. It will be June [-]th soon, 'June [-]th, the new noodles are mutton'. Play a new wheat , kill two sheep, and the whole village will be happy."

That night, Hu Ganda came to the collective stove and announced that the team had approved a two-day break.The educated youth were overjoyed, shouting "Hu Ganda can live to be a hundred years old." If it weren't for the taboo to violate the word "Long Live" back then, they could really shout: "Long Live the Great!"

In the past six months, I got up early in the dark, did not wash clothes, did not take a shower, did not write a letter home, and the lowest material and spiritual standards of urban people were gone.The boys have already had lice, and the girls' hair has become felt.

This colorful two-day vacation opened up their dreams on the Loess Plateau. "Loess Dream" begins here...

Although the team agreed to have a holiday, the farm work was so busy that they didn't give them the holiday until June [-]th (lunar calendar).

On June [-]th, two sheep were slaughtered in the team, and seven or eight catties of meat and a bucket of wheat were distributed on the educated youth stove.The next day the educated youths were on vacation, so everyone made some radishes and potatoes and stewed them.In the morning, I gathered in the kitchen, smelling the smell of meat, studied Mao Xuan for a while, and talked about it in a hurry.At noon, I ate all the mutton soup, but it was a pity that the new wheat hadn't been ground into noodles, so I couldn't eat the famous "June [-]th, the new noodles are mutton".

In the afternoon, they rested and cleaned up their own affairs.One and a half days of free time, these young people, after all, have been educated, have their own sense of freedom and romantic feelings, and need to fully enjoy the long-lost comfort and freedom.So each went to explore and enjoy the customs of the mountain valleys in northern Shaanxi in summer, and cultivate the sentiments in their hearts.

The author has something to say:

After the educated youth worked for half a year, the team gave them two days off.

This chapter uses heavy pen and ink to describe ten stories that happened during the two days of the holiday, the interweaving of several educated youth characters with sheep, fruit trees, water sources, willows, main peaks, dense caves, abandoned villages, quiet ditch, cold temple, etc. The plot brings readers into the magnificent and mysterious picture scroll of ecological environment and natural environment in northern Shaanxi.The length is heavy and the plot twists and turns, which is an important part of the context and theme of the whole novel.These ten stories are all related to the natural environment and ecological environment of Lengmiaogou, as well as the development of the story and the occurrence of tragedy in the future.The old Du Bamiao incident led to the first tragedy of this work, and also led to Li Xinhua's thinking about life.

Although the plot is foreshadowing the tragedy, here are a lot of in-depth descriptions of the beautiful scenery of northern Shaanxi, which should be able to change readers' previous impressions of the Loess Plateau (these beautiful scenery are not fabricated by the author, but have been witnessed by the author).I believe that after reading this work, more people will love northern Shaanxi and have the desire to have a deeper look at northern Shaanxi.The beautiful northern Shaanxi is the place where the Chinese nation thrives.Explore why everyone who has been to and lived in northern Shaanxi has always dreamed of her (cadres of the Anti-Japanese University and educated youths in Beijing): "Several times I dreamed of returning to Yan'an, holding Pagoda Mountain with both hands."

The ten stories with twists and turns are described later.These ten stories all belong to the chapter "Chapter 3 Holiday - The Season when Dreams Begin".
