Composition "Toys of Youth"
When I was a child, on my third birthday, my grandfather bought me a toy, and it is still difficult to buy this toy-tank car. The color of this tanker is army green, but its outside is the whole tank surrounded by iron sheets. There is a long deck on the tank body, and there is a long barrel on the deck, which can rotate left and right. There are four wheels under the car body, which can be pushed forward, backward and left and right. Inside the tank is a round passenger cabin, and the words "Bayi" in the center of the Pentagon are marked on the outside of the cabin.
When I was a child, I used to sit on the deck of a tank, turning left and right with a long barrel in one hand and moving forward with the other. I still shouted in my mouth: "Tank, tank, run, hit the bad guys!" " "Grandpa watching me cute and serious. He smiled from ear to ear!
Naturally, grandpa has been away from us for more than two years, but whenever he sees my tanker, he often recalls his kind smile!
Pig's hoof lamp
When I was a child, the greatest pleasure was the "trotter lamp" at midnight.
This is a homemade lamp. When it is lit, it is held high above the head, like a small torch.
In fact, the greatest fun of playing with trotter lights lies in its production process.
As early as the twentieth day of the twelfth lunar month, many people began to kill pigs. Of course, our children's family is interested in killing pigs to eat meat, but they have long been eager to get pointed pig's hoof shells and covet a small piece of lard as a pig's hoof lamp.
The slaughtered big fat pig, soaked in hot soup, shaved off its mane, lay fat on the chopping board in vain, and four pointed pig hooves were stuck high.
We took a long nail, hooked it with a nail cap and hooked the pig's trotter shell off. Adults are generous, although you hook up with them, it's useless to them anyway.
However, it is difficult to get a piece of lard. You can't make a trotter lamp without lard. So, we are always begging for lard. And they always say that such a piece of lard is enough to fry a dish.
We said we would rather eat one less dish than take a piece of lard.
During the Spring Festival, adults don't want to hit their children in the face, so in the end they can always meet our requirements and cut off a piece of lard for us.
If you have lard, ask your mother for a cotton twist, wrap it in lard and stuff it into the pig's hoof shell, and the lamp will be ready.
The last process is much simpler. Find a sorghum stalk, split one end, clip on the trotter lamp, and you're done.
On the thirtieth night, they ordered pig's trotters, greeted each other and walked into the street together.
Many children are walking in the street with all kinds of lanterns. Their lights can only be carried and shone low on a small piece of land under their feet; Our pig's hoof lamp can always be held overhead, shining very high and far away.
What we are most proud of is that we made our own lamps.
Pumped gyroscope
"Yang Liuhuo, take the top."
These are two sentences from a nursery rhyme I learned when I was a child. It is about a game that children often play in early spring.
Gyro is a very simple toy that children can make by themselves. Find a piece of wood, cut it into a cylinder with a height of more than one inch and a diameter of more than one inch, then sharpen the lower end and put a ball at the top, and the gyro will be ready; One more whip and you can fight.
When you play, you should wrap it up from the tip of the whip and around the waist of the gyro. Put it straight on the ground, hold the top of the gyro with your fingers, and pull the whip rope hard, and the gyro will turn on the ground, and then keep pumping, and the faster it turns.
We often play on the ice to make the top spin faster. The whip crackled and the top kept turning. Although it is freezing, no one feels cold.
In my impression, the game of spinning top seems to be limited to boys. Now that I think about it, it's probably because the game is so exciting that you have to spur it once and for all before it will turn; If you are negligent, you will stop and lean.
Rotating gyroscopes are also very aggressive. Several people whip together on the ice, often with a whip, so that their gyroscopes hit other people's gyroscopes at a very fast speed, in order to knock others down to win.
What impressed me most was that after the victory of 1945 in the Anti-Japanese War, I don't know who renamed "spinning top" as "spinning traitor". The new name was quickly recognized by everyone. Speaking of "beating traitors", our whip is louder and stronger. We regard defectors and traitors as gyroscopes and swing them around on the ice, which is very Japanese.
Sometimes adults will come forward and whip it with us when they see it.
Rabbit-headed clay figurine
White rabbits have always been children's pets. Its snow-white fluff, red eyes, and especially its docile character make us particularly fond of it.
Every Mid-Autumn Festival, besides selling moon cakes, fruits and dried fruits, clay male prostitutes attract our children's interest most.
This is a rabbit, but it is also commensurate with the "leaf". There is no such honor among other animals. The word "ye" has always been associated with elders and majesty. Needless to say, when I was a child, I knew that there were "kitchen gods", "earth gods" and "God of wealth", and I should be especially awed by these "gods" so as not to cause trouble.
Although this prostitute can be regarded as the "God Rabbit" of Guanghan Palace, we are not afraid to call her "Ye". On the contrary, everyone thinks that male prostitutes are the most equal and closest to us. Every Mid-Autumn Festival, we are willing to invite a male prostitute to play with us. The happiness it brings us is irreplaceable by other toys.
My love for male prostitutes is not only because of the warmth of the real white rabbit in life, but also because of the fairy tale color of rabbits.
The rabbit looks very strange. The rabbit face and human body are particularly fascinating.
At that time, whenever I bought a rabbit, I always held it in my arms and looked at it face to face for a long time. The rabbit's eyes are round and full of spirit, and its three mouths are closed and serious; There is always a faint rouge on his face, which looks funny.
Rabbit's clothes are strange, too. Some are wearing dahongpao, some are wearing armor, and some have national flags on their backs. They look terrible.
The rabbit is not lying there, but riding a tiger, lion or unicorn, as if ready to go out at any time, invincible.
Among the many rabbits I bought, my favorite is a rabbit named "scratch". The prostitute's lips will move, and when she moves, she will make a "scratching" sound. It turns out that a line is attached to the lips, extending from the hollow body to the feet. When you pull it with your hand, its mouth will open and close and make a sound.
Speaking of rabbits, this is the symbol of Mid-Autumn Festival. Replacing the moon with rabbits is also a myth that rabbits live in the moon and play tricks on drugs. Yue Bai, a woman, presented a song "Moonlight House"; We children imitate women and make contributions to male prostitutes. For us children, Yue Bai is a game, and male prostitutes have become our toys.
When I was a child, I bought male prostitutes every Mid-Autumn Festival. At first, I was young and bought a two or three-inch tall one. As I get older, I buy more and more male prostitutes. I have bought male prostitutes, and the biggest one is one foot tall.
The biggest male prostitute is two or three feet tall. Never bought such a high one. One is that you can't hold it, and the other is that there is no place to put it.
I haven't seen a prostitute for many years; If there were rabbits now, I would definitely buy a big one.
