李宝家从集市上拉着车子回到家,看到一头大黄牛在路边吃草吃得那么执著香甜,可能觉着自己活得还是太娇贵了,他想学习牛那样吃草,于是放下车子在路边拔了一把草在河里用清水洗了,放进嘴里慢慢地嚼。李宝家是吃过树皮、草根和观音土的,大约四十年前,那时的他三十来岁。那些年月离他有些遥远了,他或许是想要通过吃草把过去和现在联系起来,墩实一下。 Li Baojia took the car home from the market and saw a big ox eating grazing along the road so persistent and sweet, may feel that they live too expensive, he would like to learn to eat grazing cattle, so put down the car at Draw a roadside grass in the river with water wash, into his mouth and slowly chew. Li Baojia eaten bark, grass roots and Guanyin soil, about forty years ago, when he was thirty years old. Those years are a little further away from him, and perhaps he wants to associate the past with the present by grazing.
