outline

When you come to Boyang Town, Maiji District, you will find that almost every fruit grower here is holding a booklet called "Tianshui Flower Cattle and Apples Collection". This booklet expresses the pruning and management techniques of fruit trees in the form of catchy and easy-to-understand seven-character poems. This booklet was written by 78-year-old farmer Yan Fengqi, who is nearly 30 years old this year, and thus became a famous "writer" in Boyang Town.

This collection of flowers, cows and apples in Tianshui was compiled by Yan Fengqi. He introduced the pruning and management techniques of fruit trees in the form of seven-character poems in the most fluent language of ordinary people. Although this is only a thin pamphlet, he devoted most of his life to it.

The life of the character

Yan Fengqi said that he was able to write the Collection of Flowers, Cows and Apples in Tianshui mainly in the spring of 1964, when the production team organized them to learn fruit tree cultivation techniques. But at that time, many people didn't know how to turn knowledge into operational skills after learning. Orchards still let themselves go, and fruit trees grew as long as they liked, without pruning. After seeing this situation, Yan Fengqi began to brew his own ideas.

Yan Fengqi said: It is to observe under the tree every day, even squatting under the tree and not going home, and suddenly find that how to write is more popular and easy to understand, and it is easier for others to learn and correct mistakes.

Yan Fengqi's creative road thus began. During this period, he often encountered many difficulties, and sometimes he had to ponder a word for a week.

Yan Fengqi said: The hardest thing is that these trees are left unattended. They are messy and can't be cut. They have no shape. These trees are the hardest. 06: 17 After more than a week, that's it. "If fruit trees let themselves drift, branches of the same age will become bachelors. The tree grows vigorously, but it is not the result every year. " The solution is to "stare at the big branch and endure its small branches", because it is the small branches that bear fruit and the big branches cover the branches.

For decades, Yan Fengqi has summed up these easy-to-read, pleasant-to-hear and easy-to-understand words and recorded them in one notebook after another. Finally, in June 5438 +2007 10, he finished this book "Tianshui Flower Cattle and Apples Collection". This book covers the history of flowers, cows and apples, and the pruning and management knowledge of different fruit trees.

Yan Fengqi said: These farmers who pruned fruit trees in various brigades basically copied all my works. These jingles I used to read were all my things. 1 1: 10 feels like a lifetime savings, leaving a little something for future generations, no regrets.

Yan Fengqi not only has a deep research on fruit trees, but also pays great attention to the living conditions of the elderly. He wrote this seven-character poem, 13, with nearly 3000 words, which is difficult to move forward. It vividly tells the plight of the elderly, and also clarifies the truth that all virtues and filial piety come first.

Yan Fengqi's life is old and difficult. The first and second parts of the article describe the reality that there is no filial son in front of the hospital bed for a long time, and there is a long space in the middle, which shows the loneliness and loneliness of the elderly after their widowed, and the helplessness after they want to remarry but are opposed by their children. At the end, the true feelings of the old people about the country's good policies are written.

Yan Fengqi said: The significance of writing this book is to leave it to future generations. To be filial to the elderly and let children be filial to themselves, you should first be filial to adults and start from yourself.

Personality achievement

In addition, Yan Fengqi has also completed nearly 654.38+10,000 words of creation, such as Bai Yang-Laozi's Hometown, True Tales of Bai Yang, Eight Scenes of Bai Yang, Family Marriage and Husband-wife Relationship, Tomb-Sweeping Day, Facing the Storm and so on. The old man said that he was obsessed with writing in order to get rid of loneliness, forget his troubles and give himself a spiritual sustenance. But with the growth of age, it is sad to see these manuscripts that he has worked hard to accumulate but have never been published.

Yan Fengqi said: (These manuscripts) I hope the relevant departments can make reference, arouse the attention of the society and leave a memorial for the society. I don't need any reward for getting permission and recognition from the relevant departments to supply the society, which means that I didn't live in vain.

Yan Fengqi not only recorded the pruning and management techniques of fruit trees in his own way, but also inspired us with his spirit of self-improvement.

Climbing the Grid in the Field —— An Interview with Yan Fengqi, a Farmer Writer

Looking at that towering tree, people will marvel at its power in front of them. However, at the beginning, its buds were soaked with tears of struggle and shed hard sweat! Teacher Yan Fengqi, who has been dealing with farmland for many years, devoted his life to writing and paid unimaginable hardships for it. Therefore, people call him a "writer" who deals with farmland.

The weather in March changes like a child's face. When we went out, a spring rain made us feel a little chilly, but when we came to Hutou Village, Boyang Town, Maiji District, the weather was beautiful, the clouds were clear and the sky was clear in Wan Li. At this time, our mood is also rippling. At first glance, Teacher Yan Fengqi was waiting there. In front of him, he is full of energy and laughter. If he hadn't known his friends in advance, no one would have associated him with people in their seventies.

Following Mr. Yan, we came to his house. The yard is spotless, with rooms on three sides, and flowers such as hydrangeas and purses are planted in front of the eaves of the main room. There are all kinds of potted flowers on the side where the house is not built. A small vegetable plot is planted with leeks and other vegetables. A lilac is in full bloom, and a faint fragrance comes to the nose. Walking into Mr. Yan's room, although the decoration is simple, it is very clean, showing the master's ability and good housekeeping style everywhere. After greeting Mr. Yan, I went straight to the point. Mr. Yan took out a small wooden box and opened it, full of Mr. Yan's manuscript notes. Under the introduction of teacher Yan, I casually looked through my notes and saw a catchy and memorable jingle article with knowledge about fruit tree pruning, cultivation and management. And his popular science manuscripts are widely circulated in Boyang town, which is dominated by fruit industry.

The notes he made were mainly to eulogize the great changes brought by the party's good policies to farmers' lives with lyric prose; Mainly comment on the style of the times, speak out, speak out, and pour out people's voices; There are also travel notes, legends, the origin of place names and so on. Reading casually is vivid, just like being there. Asked about Mr. Yan's creative mood at that time, he casually opened the notes and stacks of manuscripts he had taken over the years, and his face was full of joy of success. He turned over his precious notes gently and began to introduce us endlessly. When talking about each work, he has developed a rich imagination and vividly expounded the creative background, such as a few treasures. Looking at teacher Yan Fengqi's thick notes and excited mood, we were moved by it and felt a lot. At this time, I deeply feel that the wooden box is not filled with notes, but should be Yan Fengqi's lifelong hard work and tireless pursuit!

What power can make him so persistent? According to Yan Fengqi's daughter, Yan Fengqi was originally from high flyers, tianshui normal university, who taught and educated people after graduation. In that terrible era, like many people, he couldn't get what he wanted and didn't give full play to his talents, so he returned to the countryside and began his farming career. In this way, because the news in the countryside was relatively closed, he missed the opportunity and worked in the field for half his life.

However, for most people, after a failure, they will give up their pursuit. However, Teacher Yan Fengqi doesn't think so. He believes that sometimes, the reality is ruthless, but dreams can make him feel warm and see hope. Yes, everyone can have a dream, but if you don't put it into action, you will never wait for the day when your dream comes true.

Teacher Yan Fengqi's personality determines his life. He is strong and persistent, and there is nothing he can't do except what he didn't expect. Therefore, in addition to doing well in the field, he began to regain his childhood interest in writing. He thought, great writers with achievements usually come from the home of Mo Xiang, and I must become a "writer" from other places.

A lot of things have happened. When he was a farmer, he had no regrets, persisted in his work, used a solid literary foundation, persisted in writing, mastered scientific and technological knowledge, and wrote what he loved in the countryside in jingle, which was easy for villagers to remember and understand. When it was applied to orchard management, the villagers really benefited and tasted the sweetness.

Plum blossom fragrance comes from bitter cold. In 2007, the Collection of Flowers, Cows and Apples in Tianshui was published, covering the history of flowers, cows and apples, pruning and management knowledge of different fruit trees. This collection of flowers, cows and apples in Tianshui is a seven-character poem by teacher Yan Fengqi, which introduces the pruning and management techniques of fruit trees in the most fluent language of ordinary people. Although it is only a thin booklet, it has devoted most of the efforts of the elderly.

Later, on this basis, in order to publicize Bai Yang and make Bai Yang an important part of Tianshui tourist route, Mr. Yan visited the elderly, read a lot of historical materials, and compiled and edited manuscripts such as Legend of Bai Yang and Origin of Bai Yang, as well as the Town Records of Bai Yang, Bai Yang-Lao Zi's Hometown, Tomb-Sweeping Day and Eight Scenes of Bai Yang and Family. He is so obsessed with writing, in order to pass away loneliness and forget his troubles, and also to give himself a spiritual sustenance.

Looking through the notes and manuscripts poured out by the old man line by line and listening to Mr. Yan's witty remarks, we deeply feel that the old man is racing against time, doing infinite career and pursuit in limited life years, and creating infinite wealth for mankind!

I had a heart-to-heart communication with teacher Yan Fengqi, which really felt like "it is better to study for ten years than to listen to you". I hope that Teacher Yan Fengqi will continue to do what she likes and write what she wants to write. I also hope that these manuscripts of Teacher Yan will can not only give her spiritual sustenance, but also become the materials for our study.

Yes, everyone's life is like a blank sheet of paper at the beginning, and every choice you make will add a touch of bright color to the picture of life. However, only with dreams will we spend our whole life completing this magnificent picture of life. When Mr. Yan Fengqi was dealing with farmland, Mo Xiang was always with him. It is precisely because of his constant cultivation and pen cultivation that his life is so colorful, which can be described as simple and strange, ordinary and big.
