1. Old-age farmers mostly eat twice a day, not three meals. Eating at 90 a. M. Is a “grain food” and eating at the end of the afternoon before sunset, and even reduced to one meal when it is not available. This is not a subsistence, it is an extreme food shortage, it is forced to reduce meals for food rations, and most people are chronically hungry。
2. The warehouse is cleaner than the face when the rent is paid. Land is leased on the land of the owner, and 60-70 per cent of the land is paid for, taxed, and seeds and cattle are rented. The weather is just enough to make a living, and in times of disaster, rent taxes are not cut, and soybeans are often eaten, and rice noodles are luxury items that can only be touched in years。
3. No cotton before song dynasty. The winter is covered with sackcloths, flowers, willows, hard as planks and very poor heating. The north is warmed by fire, the ponds, the wood and grass are not used until late in the night, and most of them remain frozen all night。
Four months in winter without bathing. Hot water is expensive, can be washed down the river in the summer and only once in the winter, january or months. With wooden tubs, hot water needs to be burned early, ordinary farmers have no bathroom, poor heating is prone to illness and bathing is a luxury。
Fire is more precious than gold. There are no matches for the lighter, and at home, there are sealed pots of pottery for the burning of charcoal and the burning of fire, which are guarded day and night. The fire can be cut off only by house-to-house borrowing, by delaying agricultural work, and by refraining from putting off the fire at will, which is the bottom line of survival。
6. Farmers are idle and have multiple jobs. Drinking, ironing, cooking, building houses after the fall harvest, opening a wine shop by the rice fields of won-ming farmers, filling a train with blacksmith stoves for the gold farmers, leaving farmers in the streets and often earning extra land on a part-time basis are important means of survival。
Most farmers are illiterate for life. The “farmer-readers” are exceptional cases of wealthy farmers, 90 per cent of whom are illiterate. Knowledge is passed on by mouth and practice, is not read in books and contracts, is often deceived by officials and landlords, and there is no way to defend their rights。
8. Arable land is subject to “negative words, taboos”. In the fields, there is no fights, bad words, fearing that “the crops will be washed”; pregnant women are not allowed to land, fearing that the aerobics will affect the harvest; and women are prohibited from crossing the plows, believing that they will be “single” and superstitious rules are stricter than those governing farming。
Cows are more expensive than men. At the beginning of april, eight of the agricultural calendars, "the queen of the cow" , gave the cattle a holiday, fed them soybeans and ate their own "cow of the cow." cows are the core of production, with cattle injuries and felonies, and farmers are unable to feed themselves. Priority is also given to feeding cattle。
10. Tetanus anti-septicism is extremely practical. A mosquito-free fragrance, which is lit by drying of herbs and accelerants, and smoke-smuggling, with doors and windows hanging in a mint and relying on the cleaning of vermin. In the middle of the night, it's so natural and harmless that it doesn't lose modern simple mosquitoes。
11: the light is very low and sleeps at night. Vegetableseed oils, cotton-line lamp cores, and very fine and cost-proof cores are used. The light is dark, unable to work, sleeps in the dark, and it is luxurious to stay up until the sun rises and sets。
12: the rules are too harsh. There is no room for squealing, fearing stimuli; no room for spicy eating, fearing odor effects; and no room for humans, fearing evil. The silk is the root of the southern farmer's life. It's better than raising a child。
13, chopsticks are taboo. Peasants think that knocking is a beggar begging, and that children hitting the bowl are called "wanted to be flowers". The beggars often knock on the bowls for food, which has been raging for thousands of years, is the fear of poverty at the bottom of the ground and is carved into the details of life。
14: the gourd is a cure. The sugar melon was made of malt sugar by the twenty-third month, and said, “perhaps the mouth of a sticky cook, a good word from heaven”, in fact, it was farmers who had no time for sweetness, satisfied their appetites in the name of god, and kept their hearts hidden in rituals。
15. Winter to soup collections. In the north, the rice is round from winter to rice, and coins are set aside on purpose. The essence is to make children eat more, to make them more fun with good words, to be careful and to hide their warmth。
16, the cranium turns green is a chemical reaction. The larvae is green on new year's eve, and farmers say “green is good”, which is actually a low-temperature reaction. It is a coincidence of life's wisdom to find unwittingly the ritual of passing through and scientific transformation into folklore。
Agricultural tools are “family heirlooms”. A hoop, a plough has been passed on for generations, carefully maintained, off-limits, off-limits. Farmer oils, repairs and repairs are regarded as the core of family property, more precious than clothing, food and loss of life。
18. Clothes to rot, patch and patch. “men and women weave” produces their own coarse cloths, which are monotonous and resistant to grinding. For more than 10 years, adults pass on children, patches and patches, clothes are common and new clothes are only for the holidays。
Drinking water from wells and rivers without filtering. Drinking water directly from wells, rivers, ponds, without disinfection and filtration and susceptible to disease. Rain-water canisters are filled with water, which is more expensive in times of drought than oil, and is used to wash and wash。
20. Poor housing and huts. The walls are muddled with grass, the roofs are thick and hot in winter and summer. There is no furniture in the house, only earth, wood table, grass mat, ground dirt, and leaks are normal and covert。
21 - all travel is by leg, no horses. Civilians cannot ride, ride and walk, leaving a few days in advance. The carriages are expensive, only available to the landowners, and farmers have been unable to leave the country for a lifetime, with minimal scope and limited vision。
22, the baby's home early, working at seven or eight. Boys cut grass, feed cattle, sheep, girls swab, cut wood, cook and have no childhood. The children of the poor are homemakers early, and the survival pressure is a luxury for children to learn。
23, i'm sick and i can't afford to see a doctor. Medical care is extremely expensive and unaffordable for farmers. Small diseases are self-governing, big diseases are at the mercy of the law, witches and doctors are in charge, diseases are common at home, and medical treatment is zero。
24 the farmers are busy day and night, and the looting is like killing. Seeding, harvesting, day and night, early and late, and in the rain. There is no shortage of air, no harvest at the time of the fall, and every effort is made to ensure that a year's harvest is seen as critical days。
25. Women are more burdened, and men and women farmers fabricate. Women are more tiring than men when it comes to downland, knitting, housework and childcare. Weaves are used to subsidize the household, farmers work double jobs, low-status and high-paying jobs, and men and women weave。
The temple is the only entertainment. Farmers, festivals, social plays, lectures, several times a year. There is no television, no mobile phone, no entertainment, no entertainment, no entertainment, no play, no play, no spiritual life, and more than enjoyment。
Interest on food borrowing is extremely high and is very profitable. If you don't borrow food, you'll get 50% or even double interest. Two fights are often paid back, the more poor they are, the more they sell their land and the more they sell。
28 the land is the root of life, rather than the land. Land is fundamental to survival, and it is not sold for waste or disease. The sale of land is tantamount to breaking the path of children and grandchildren, begging and selling their children, giving priority to the preservation of land, which is etched into the marrow。
The weather determines fate and depends on it. Fertilizers, pesticides and water are not available, and the harvest depends on the weather. The wind and the rain feed, while droughts, locusts and floods do not yield, feed on the sky and are unable to confront nature。
30, then buried in thin air, covered in grass. There is no money for coffins, funerals, shrouded bodies, gravestones and altars. Life and death are simple, living, struggling, and then weeding, and at the bottom, silent。
31. Fear of the land, frequent rituals. • lianchun, the valley rain, the mid-autumn land, monthly small sacrifices. The winds are smooth, the valleys are plentiful, the spirit is plentiful, the power of nature, the comfort of god, and piety。
