Current weather in Hongan county

The autumn wind is bleak, the rain is continuous and the weather is abnormal.

In a small mountain village in Hong 'an County, Hubei Province, Liu Duoxiu's family lived near the foot of the mountain. She is preparing dinner.

Suddenly the door was knocked open and several people rushed in carrying a simple stretcher.

The man on the stretcher is in a coma.

Liu Duoxiu threw down the spatula in his hand, rushed out of the door and shouted at the person lying on the stretcher: "His father, what's wrong with you!"

The leader said to her anxiously, "Go in first, don't get wet, wait until you come in."

The stretcher came into the room, and everyone helped the hostess take off the coma's wet clothes and put them on the bed.

The panicked woman hurriedly changed the man into a clean suit and listened to people's introduction: on the mountain road back from the market, mudslides and falling rocks hit her waist.

Looking at the pillar of the family and lying in bed silently, Liu Duoxiu really can't understand what happened to her husband from people's stories!

1.

The man died in the middle of the night because the village was too remote and it was raining. Although he was in trouble not far from the village, he was dying when he was found.

In front of her husband's grave, Liu Duoxiu led her only son Guo Yalin to cry.

The grass is yellow and the world is far away. The son who goes to primary school is less than ten years old. Thinking of the difficulties in the future, Liu Duoxiu's heart is full of despair.

If her son is not young, she really wants to follow her husband and be a partner on the road to peace.

In addition, in the 1980s, many rural areas in Hubei Province were still poor. The village where Liu Duoxiu lives doesn't even have electricity, and the lighting depends on oil lamps.

Under such conditions, how difficult it is for a newly widowed woman to support a family alone.

Liu Duoxiu thought of death several times, but at the sight of her son, her strong heart made her stand a little straight.

For the sake of her son, she will live no matter how hard it is.

Since this autumn, Liu Duoxiu has become a robot.

Firewood in winter, farming in spring, weeding in summer and harvesting in autumn. The thin woman shouldered all the burdens needed for life.

Tired? Very tired, but when she saw her son who was studying hard under the oil lamp, her heart was full of comfort and her body was full of infinite strength.

She calculated that the rice collected from a few acres of land at home, in addition to paying public grain, can also be used to ensure that mother and son are not hungry.

Because of the compulsory education policy, the burden of my son's schooling is not heavy. What makes her most gratified is that her clever and studious son has always been the object of praise from the teacher.

As a mother, there is no return, which makes people more proud and happy. Besides, Guo Yalin is smart and sensible. As soon as she finished studying, she helped her mother.

The young man studies well and works well. Liu Duoxiu looked at his sensible son and felt relatively relaxed.

She firmly believes that through her own efforts, her son will be cultivated into a man with great achievements.

Guo Yalin really lived up to her mother's high hopes. After graduating from high school, she was admitted to the county high school with excellent results.

Children are promising, and mothers are naturally the happiest people.

But there are difficulties at home, and my mother is also the most angry person.

It costs a lot of money for my son to go to high school and live away from home.

I'm surrounded by people and I can't make money. Where can I get the money?

Guo Yalin saw his mother's dilemma and knew that the days at home were like a broken sailboat, and the wind and rain were chilling.

Before school started, he told his mother not to study, so he stayed at home and watched her do farm work.

Guo Yalin can't worry about her mother anyway.

As early as in middle school, Liu Duoxiu suffered from rheumatism, but he never wanted to see a doctor or even buy painkillers.

Guo Yalin watched her mother cross the threshold with difficulty. When she went to work in other places, she left her schoolbag several times, trying to drag her back to rest and carry it herself.

But his mother resolutely stopped him. There is no way, Guo Yalin can only study hard and repay her mother's hard work with a certificate.

Now he is going to study in the county seat, leaving only his mother at home. He's really worried. Living in the county requires a lot of extra expenses, just like a mountain. He is worried that his mother will be crushed.

This time, he didn't listen to his mother's persuasion as usual. But stubbornly told his mother that if he was forced to go to school again, he would run away from home and go to work in the city.

Liu Duoxiu, who has a gentle personality, suddenly became angry. She raised her hand and slapped her son, reprimanding: "Listen, with your mother, I won't worry about raising you and giving you a future. If you dare to go to work, take my body first! "

Guo Yalin threw herself into her mother's arms, and they hugged each other and cried. It's like crying like this, there will be bread and money.

But the reality is cruel, poverty does not sympathize with tears, and Liu Duoxiu knows that tears can't solve anything.

She dried her tears first, then helped her son up, and her thin face showed a little strength.

She said to her son, go and study hard. Mom has a deposit, which was saved when your father was alive. Not much, but enough for you to finish high school.

Guo Yalin didn't expect his father to leave a deposit. He looked at his mother suspiciously. But seeing his mother's firm eyes and thinking that her mother never lies, he chose to believe.

Because, in his bones, Guo Yalin wants to go to school too much!

2.

Guo Yalin was cheated into school by his mother, and Liu Duoxiu was cornered by life.

She once gave her son confidence in a bright future, just like a mountain with too much rain, which slowly collapsed.

For the first time in her life, she tricked her son into going to school with peace of mind. Where does she have any savings, there are only the serious consequences of increasing rheumatism and gradual loss of working ability caused by delayed treatment.

At the beginning of school, according to the regulations of the school, the parents of other students paid enough tuition fees and 30 kilograms of rations.

However, Guo Yalin's mother did not show up at school.

To this end, the teacher called Guo Yalin to the office, asked him if he had sent a message to his family, and urged: "It's not too difficult to talk to his family. It's just 30 kilograms of rations and a few dollars of tuition. Hand it in quickly, so as not to keep asking me. "

Guo Yalin thought of her poor home and the way her mother dragged her clumsy legs in the field, with tears in her eyes and her head down.

Seeing him like this, the teacher was a little anxious: "Guo Yalin, according to the school regulations, if he can't pay the export food and tuition, he can't take up teaching resources and will be persuaded to go home." You studied so well that you were fired. Thanks! "

After listening to the teacher, Guo Yalin was also anxious. He suddenly raised his head and said to the teacher with red eyes, "teacher, I didn't pay the tuition and rations, so I don't occupy the classroom seat." I will not violate the school rules if I stand behind and study. "

The young man with backbone was suddenly moved by his decision. Without waiting for the teacher's permission, he ran back to the classroom, picked up his schoolbag and stood under the wall in the last row.

The scene of standing and studying was seen by Liu Duoxiu.

The season is less than, the food has not been hit, and there is nothing to change money at home. Want to do something to earn money, severe rheumatism, let her really overwhelmed.

She wanted to discuss with the school teacher to see if the tuition and rations could be slowed down, only to find that her son was punishing himself.

Through the door glass, Liu Duoxiu saw his son leaning against the wall alone, holding a book in one hand and a pen in the other, carefully recording the lessons taught by the teacher.

Although Liu Duoxiu listened to the teacher and Guo Yalin volunteered to stand and study, as a mother, she could not watch her son be wronged, even if it was only a little.

She hit her face hard and hated her inability to protect her son's self-esteem. Looking at the sensible son, Liu Duoxiu's heartache was suffocating.

When she came out of school, Liu Duoxiu was sitting in the street dejectedly, her scattered eyes ignored the busyness of the street, and suddenly a beggar caught her eye.

There is a light in her eyes, and begging is also a way for a Jedi to survive. At least, my son's monthly ration of 30 Jin should be able to solve it.

Thinking of this, she seemed to see hope, and saw her son sitting confidently at the desk, standing straight and answering the teacher's questions.

Liu Duoxiu instantly made up his mind.

In order to save face and be afraid that things would spread to his son's ears, Liu Duoxiu deliberately avoided acquaintances. Running out of a dozen miles every day, when I arrive at a strange village, I have the cheek to knock on people's doors and shout, "Give me some food, give me some money!" "

Her voice was shy and timid. It was that generate hid in a dark shack at night and practiced crying countless times with tears.

As the saying goes, begging cannot be too bad. Hundreds of meters, thousands of families, when people are finally willing to end the bowl of charity, gifts are varied.

Zhang Jia has a bowl of sorghum rice and Li Jia has a ladle of rice. Occasionally, you may meet a well-off and kind generation and give them a handful of white rice.

As a result, Liu Duoxiu's grain bag is full of flowers and fruits, as well as all kinds of food.

When Liu Duoxiu, who looked tired, finally found some face for her son, her face was lost in the canteen master.

Looking at the colorful rice in the grain bag, the master's face was only a gloomy color.

He slammed the grain bag on the ground, and his voice was as cold as the cold wind in October. Liu Duoxiu, who is smoking a cigarette, is chilling: "What the hell are you, delivering feed?" We accept students' rations instead of feed for pigs. "

Poor Liu Duoxiu, who had only a little self-esteem, didn't have the courage to admit that this was the food he begged for, so he had to humbly apologize and promise to pay attention next time.

The master is also reasonable. Seeing Liu Duoxiu sweating profusely, he threw the grain bag into the corner and said, "That's it this time. Remember to send rice next time."

Liu Duoxiu gratefully withdrew from the canteen. After going out, she remembered that she couldn't do what the master asked.

No alms giver will tidy up the money and give it up according to the standard for the sake of the beggar's face.

Liu Duoxiu needs to leave home early every day to avoid the eyes and ears of the villagers.

After a hard day of begging, I can't go home until dark.

Only Liu Duoxiu knows how tired his weak body is.

When she poured the food she wanted into the rice jar, her limbs were weak and she was about to collapse. She didn't have the strength, so she picked out the sparse rice in the miscellaneous grains and gave her son a ration.

She worries about falling down every day and can't get up the next day.

Every day, the early bird sings and jumps in front of her window, which wakes her up from her sleep. Seeing the morning light on the window, Liu Duoxiu was even a little happy.

She knew that her son had a better chance of successfully completing his studies.

Liu Duoxiu persisted in this way, supporting the sick body, leaving early and returning late. It is Liu Duoxiu's only idea to let his son finish his studies with dignity, change his fate and stop being poor.

Liu Duoxiu did everything for his son, even if he was humiliated.

In the third month, colorful food was sent to the canteen, which broke the limit of the master's patience.

He broke out completely: "You take it away for me at once! Quite a big man. How can you not understand people if you are not deaf or blind? If you can raise your son, but you can't afford him, what else can you let him go to school? It's not over taking it home to farm! "

He put the grain bag on the ground again: "Take it away, except rice, there is no farewell food here."

How touching! Liu Duoxiu, embarrassed, completely forgot his dignity and knelt on the ground and hugged the master's leg that was about to slam the door: "Master, master! Please don't do this. If I can do something, I won't give you any trouble. "

Liu Duoxiu sat on the ground, laboriously pulling the rice bag and holding it in front of the master: "This rice ... I asked for it!"

With that, she burst into tears with endless sadness in her voice.

Begging, humiliated by white eyes; Dragging his deformed legs, gritting his teeth and moving home didn't make Liu Duoxiu so sad.

Now that the master is going to ruin his son's future, Liu Duoxiu can't pretend to be strong.

The master was shocked.

Ordinary people, parents, who can ignore the sadness of others when it comes to children?

Master's eyes were wet, so he helped Liu Duoxiu up, settled her in a chair, poured a cup of hot water and handed it to Liu Duoxiu.

Calm down, Liu Duoxiu briefly introduced his family to the master.

The master groaned while listening.

Finally, Liu Duoxiu seems to swear to the master: "We farmers don't have high expectations, so we feel that our children can't stay in the fields all day and live a life without seeing the sky like me. If the child doesn't want to be strong, he is willing to dig in the soil, but he is ambitious. "

Thinking of his son working tirelessly under the dim oil lamp, Liu Duoxiu felt a sense of heroism: "How can a child succeed without studying?" If my son knows how to work hard, I will have that energy and will definitely give him up. "

After Liu Duoxiu finished, she cried and begged the master: "Don't let my son know that I am begging for him to go to school!"

Master was completely moved by Liu Duoxiu's simplicity and Liu Duoxiu's tenacity. He took Liu Duoxiu's meal and took time to tell the principal about Liu Duoxiu's mother and son.

The headmaster was very emotional and learned that Guo Yalin was also making unremitting efforts, and his grades were always in the top few grades. He thinks this kind of life can be created. Guo Yalin applied for a special hardship allowance, exempting him from all expenses such as rations and tuition fees.

The mother's burden was lightened and her son's energy was enhanced. Finally, Guo Yalin was admitted to Tsinghua University with excellent results.

Fate is very popular. Once you are lucky, it will give you another motivation and make you more smooth.

When Liu Duoxiu didn't have to worry about his son's study expenses, the village also learned about Liu Duoxiu's begging for rice for his children to study.

The secretary and a group of villagers were shocked: how strong a person is, and for the sake of his son, he even came up with a trick of begging.

So under the auspices of the secretary, everyone came up with an idea. It turned out that Liu Duoxiu got a fake passbook in order to reassure his son to go to school.

Through the cooperation of the teacher, she let her son know that there are 600 yuan in the passbook, which can fully support him to complete his studies smoothly.

Everyone decided to add the number of this passbook to help Liu Duoxiu tide over the difficulties.

So the villagers paid, and he paid, and soon 600 yuan was raised in the passbook.

When the secretary handed Liu Duoxiu the passbook and persuaded Liu Duoxiu who refused many times to accept it, he made a decision: In the future, as long as the children in the village want to study, "we will tighten our belts and grit our teeth for them to go to school."

He looked forward affectionately: "After these dolls become talents, our village will have hope, development and prosperity."

With the help of villagers and the school's aid project, Liu Duoxiu doesn't have to beg.

The hardships of Guo Yalin's mother and son stopped abruptly at three bags of rice. The three bags of rice that were once placed at the graduation ceremony have become a symbol of history.

This symbol is very light, only enough for a child's food for three months; However, this symbol is very heavy. It carries the vision of a generation getting rid of poverty and changing their destiny.

As a mother, Liu Duoxiu can tolerate anything, but she must not tolerate her son dropping out of school and her strong son falling into poverty.

This is the greatness of mother.

The greatness of a mother lies in that she not only gave birth to life, but also is willing to pay all the courage for the growth of this life.

Fortunately, Guo Yalin did not live up to his mother's hope, and he succeeded.

Finally, Liu Duoxiu went through all kinds of hardships, followed his son to Beijing, and enjoyed his family happiness happily until he died in his son's home in the mid-1990s.

In order to repay the kindness of the villagers, Guo Yalin donated a primary school in his hometown. The sound of reading on campus every day is the hope of this land.
