(1) Learning to ride a bicycle

The waves in the Yangtze River push back the waves in front, and the sun and moon blow at us, making us grow old. In a blink of an eye, we have reached the prime of life. Many beautiful memories have long become a passing cloud, gone forever. Many beautiful memories from childhood are also gone.

It can only be seen in dreams.

In my memory, learning to ride a bicycle has become an unforgettable thing for me. Therefore, I would like to take this opportunity to find a good memory of my childhood and share my childhood memories with readers and friends.

I remember when I first learned to ride a bicycle, it was probably in the spring of 1979. At that time, I was still in the second grade of the primary school run by our village.

At that time, the countryside was still eating from a big pot. All the people relied on earning work points to support their families. There were almost no modern tools in the countryside at that time. It was almost hard to see even cars. (In fact, there were some at that time.

The car was just because I was young at the time and I had never traveled far. So when I saw the car, I was very curious. As a prank, I turned off the accelerator of a car's fuel tank for fun.)

Just before the Spring Festival of that year, my eldest brother actually bought a "Hongqi" brand bicycle from Weinan and returned home.

In rural China at that time, there were very few means of transportation. A family with several bicycles in a village was considered a relatively wealthy family. Therefore, since my family bought a bicycle, our family has

It was crowded with people watching the fun. Learning to ride a bicycle has become a hobby for many people.

For such a hard-won item, the eldest brother naturally regarded it as a treasure. So, he locked the bicycle at home during the weekdays.

After seeing others learning to ride bicycles, my heart started to move, so I pestered my elder brother and wanted to learn to ride bicycles.

Since I was not yet ten years old at that time and was not as tall as a bicycle, my eldest brother refused to let me learn to ride a bicycle and locked the bicycle in front of me.

After seeing that my elder brother had locked the car, I secretly looked at him to see where he had hidden the bicycle key. However, I had no choice but to hide the car key very tightly, and I couldn't get it for a while.

Hard work paid off. Finally one day, while my elder brother was not at home, I secretly found the key to the bicycle from a box and secretly pushed the bicycle out.

Since it was my first time to learn to ride a bicycle, and the bicycle at home was an old-fashioned weighted bicycle, I pushed the bicycle onto the road and learned to pedal it.

While I was learning how to ride a bicycle, a pedestrian suddenly walked over from the road. When I saw a pedestrian coming in front of the bicycle, I panicked. Since it was my first time to learn to ride a bicycle, I didn’t know how to ride a bicycle.

How to use the brake? So he looked at the bicycle and rushed towards the person.

After seeing my bicycle, it rushed towards me. The passers-by were also shocked and quickly gave way to me.

At the same time, when I saw a pedestrian coming in front of me, I immediately panicked and turned the front of the car to avoid the pedestrian.

Just like that, the two of us met each other while avoiding each other. As soon as we saw the bicycle, it rushed towards the person.

Seeing that the bicycle was about to hit someone, I couldn't help but panic even more. I hit him hard and the bicycle turned into a tree ditch beside the road. The person also fell down on the roadside.

The tree ditched.

Later, when I got up and helped the bicycle, I found that the bicycle's pedals had fallen crooked. When I turned the pedals with my hands a few times, I found that the pedals were no longer flexible.

After seeing this, I knew that I had gotten into trouble and had to be scolded by my elder brother. In order to avoid this disaster, I quietly pushed the bicycle back home and put it back to its original place. Then I locked the bicycle

After moving in, he quietly put the key back to its original place. Then he pretended to be nonchalant and waited for the scolding from his elder brother.

However, things just went by day by day. The eldest brother seemed not to notice this and was still busy with his work all day long.

After seeing that things had been going on like this for a long time, and my elder brother still didn't pursue the matter, I felt relieved. So, I started learning to ride a bicycle secretly again.

In this way, after secretly learning to ride a bicycle many times, I finally learned to ride a bicycle.

The past events are vivid in my mind, and now that I think about it carefully, my childhood was really a lot of fun.

The first day of April 24th of the Gengzi year (2020) (the 28th day of the third month of the lunar calendar) is the third anniversary of my father’s death. In memory of my father, and the people who preceded him before his death.

Old mother, I wrote this article specifically to commemorate the two old people. May my parents rest in peace in heaven!

I can wander around in my dreams. My parents' voices, faces, and faces can only be seen in my dreams.

My parents are ordinary people. They have never had a glorious history. However, in the minds of our brothers, they are the greatest parents in the world.

The two of them went through a lot of hardships to capture and support us brothers. They set a glorious example for us.

My father is an ordinary person. He has never made any brilliant achievements in his life. He is just an unknown ordinary person. But in my memory, my father is a very diligent person. Whenever

When he returned home, he was never idle. Carrying water, washing clothes, cooking, and mending were all household chores that only housewives had to do, but he did them all by himself. (My mother may be the one who did it.

Because he left his father early, he has been the head of the family since he was a child. He is not very interested in the daily affairs of the family.)

My mother is a simple and capable person. In my memory, in the production team at that time, there were some jobs that men could not do, but my mother scrambled to do them. When I was in the production team, my grandmother

We are already older, my father is working outside, and several of our brothers are in school. At that time, almost every family was heavily in debt like ours. But under the circumstances at that time, our family not only had no debt,

And there are still some surpluses. These are all related to my mother's hard work and hard work.

I remember that there were seven people in our family at that time. At that time, except for my father, who was working as a cook in Chongning Commune (later changed to Chongning Township), the rest of us were working on the farm at home. At that time,

At that time, my grandmother was already eighty years old. However, she was very hard-working and was very good at washing, cooking, and weaving and spinning. In my childhood memories, the food, drink, and clothing of the four of us brothers were like this.

Thanks to my grandmother’s hard work. (My mother, as the women’s director of our village, is busy earning work points and supporting the family all day long. Therefore, she does less in this regard.)

At that time, there were four brothers in our family (I only have three brothers), except for the eldest brother, who had already completed junior high school, joined the production team, and participated in labor. My other two brothers and I were all studying.

.The situation of our family at that time was: there were old people at the top and young people at the bottom. It is conceivable that the difficulty in the family must have been very difficult.

My father is a very honest and hard-working man. When he was working as a cook in Chongning Township, his monthly salary was only more than 30 yuan. And his place of work was about eight kilometers away from our home.

distance. At that time, there were very few buses on the highway. There were also very few bicycles in the countryside at that time. Even later, after bicycles became available, my father, due to historical reasons (mainly because he could not ride a bicycle)

)He has been walking back and forth, rushing between units)

Moreover, every time he goes to work, because he has to get to the workplace on time, he often sets out at five o'clock every morning (it takes about two hours to get to the workplace from home every time).

Then, after a long journey of more than two hours, we arrived at the unit on time.

In order to support our brothers and study, my parents and grandmothers have gone through a lot of hardships. They have worked hard all their lives for the lives of their children. Looking at the happy life today, I think

I miss the kindness of our parents. As children, we will never be able to repay it in our lifetime.

I remember that when I was young, I was very naughty and playful. Once, when I saw my second uncle going down to the Red Department Store to get some red heat, I felt it was very funny. So I took advantage of a family’s

When I was not at home, I secretly went down to the Red Office cellar to play.

At that time, because I was relatively young and the Hongshu Cellar was designed, in order to store potatoes and other materials, my second uncle dug a turning hole in the upper part of the Hongshu Cellar.

After this change, some changes were made to the original tunnel. As a result, when I was getting down to the Red Department Cellar, I accidentally stepped on the air and fell into the Red Department Cellar.

At that time, my family was still working in the production team. I cried for a long time, until my voice became hoarse from crying. Still no one could hear my voice. Until it was getting late, my family released
