Inscription: Some skills created by human beings for survival and development in the long history should be recorded and preserved as cultural relics.

Pumping water by water truck

In those years, farmers knew that waterwheels were an indispensable property of farmers' families.

It is an irrigation tool, which consists of a water carriage, a shaft head, a carriage float, a seedling stand and a lifting rod.

I remember that the father of a carpenter in front of my house was a good hand at making waterwheels.

The wood of the waterwheel should be tough and corrosion-resistant oak or old elm or stupid locust. Hitting people is a very serious matter. Choose an auspicious day, start with firecrackers, get on the horse for dinner, and the master shouted and started work. It takes two or three working days to make a waterwheel, and then you have to dismount. At that time, many neighbors will come to enjoy the celebration and see the newly painted golden waterwheel. The faces of the master and the masters are full of pride and joy. Making a waterwheel is an expensive expense that ordinary small families can't afford.

Whether the weather is good or not, it depends on manpower, and then the waterwheel will come in handy. Waterwheels vary in size, with two people stepping on them and four people stepping on them. Two people step on the husband and wife stalls, in no hurry, chatting while stepping on them, saying love stories and singing love songs, and work and love are not delayed; The four people stepped on the strong men, and the situation was heavy, and the water was full of kings. They shouted their songs many times, which was very rhythmic and rhythmic, and the efficiency was extremely high. If you can't keep up with the speed, you can only "hang the goose" with a smile.

At that time, it was difficult to survive, but labor brought pleasure to people. The relationship between people is harmonious.

Blank cutting

Before and after the Double Ninth Festival, the autumn is crisp and sunny.

Autumn is busy, and after eighteen days, "Autumn Tiger" is a good time to leave a blank space.

The generous gift brought by selfless sunshine will accompany you to enjoy the happiness of hard work and return. At this time, you can more deeply understand the infinite meaning of "Chunhua Qiushi".

Adobe was a necessary material for farmers to build houses at that time. In the newly harvested rice stubble field, the cultivators put on cows and rolled the stones round and round until they became hard. Then, in groups of four, three in front and one in the back, they pull wires and cross knives, and then use a blank shovel to lift the adobe piece by piece and put it sideways. The movements are mechanical and rhythmic. Intermittent, Abel Tamata head scooped a bowl of big pot of "autumn old white" to drink, it is a kind of downright carefree. At this time, the sun is strong but not strong, and the dried adobe will not crack. After a week or so, adobe can be stacked and covered with straw or plastic sheets to prevent autumn rain. Sometimes a blank yard often becomes a "trench" for children.

Building a house is a lifelong event for farmers. Don't start work until there are enough other materials in winter. When building a house, no matter how humble the house is, several brothers also gather at the sunny wall, depending on the comfort and complacency:

"Three new houses have finally been built!"

"wow! How many brothers want to burn the bottom of the pot? "

"Stay in the sun for a few days, and then move in to dry the moisture when it is ventilated."

Comfortable and light.

Spinning (with cotton)

In my hometown, spinning is a woman's job.

I have more feelings for spinning. In particular, Meng Jiao's Ode to a Wanderer: the thread in the hands of a loving mother makes clothes for the wayward boy's body; She sewed carefully and thoroughly, fearing that it would delay his time to go home; Who can say that a filial child like the weak can repay his mother's love like the sunshine in spring? It has also aroused people's emotional nostalgia for their mothers for thousands of years. A spinning wheel, a sesame oil lamp and a basket of cotton strips began to babble. I wonder how many children fell asleep in this lullaby. When I woke up, I saw the back of my mother's oil lamp, which made people sad.

Women will change the spun yarn into coarse cloth and dye it wool blue to make clothes and quilts for the whole family.

Although this self-sufficient natural life is clumsy and heavy, compared with mechanized mass production, it soothes the soul of nurturing people, shows the charm of tradition and embodies the brilliance of human nature.

I miss it very much at busy times.
