我是1960年跨进初中门槛的,当时正是三年自然灾害时期。初中二年级时,学生的供应粮由原来的每月30斤降到了20斤,副食也极度匮乏。很多同学受不了饥饿的煎熬退了学,光我们这个年级就退了50多人。在我要不要退的问题上,我的四位家长意见不一。祖父母认为:闺女家开一开眼,能认自己的名字、出门花钱不会受骗就可以了。母亲则认为:已经上了一年半,再不坚持,这一年半也白上了。领张初中毕业证,将来就会找个好女婿。再说,去上学每月还挣20斤的供应粮,一旦回来,这20斤也没有了,家中又添一张嘴。父亲犹豫不决,就对我说:“你自己也拿拿主意吧。” I crossed the threshold of junior high school in 1960 when it was three years of natural disaster. In the second grade of junior high school, the student’s supply of food dropped from 30 pounds per month to 20 pounds, and the non-staple food was extremely scarce. Many students could not stand the lessons of hunger and retired from school. We had already retired more than 50 people in this grade. On the question I want to retreat, my four parents have different opinions. Grandparents believe that when a prostitute’s family opens their eyes, they can recognize their names and go out to spend money without being deceived. The mother believes that: It has been a year and a half, and it has not persisted. This year and a half are also white. Get a junior high school diploma and you will find a good son in the future. Moreover, to go to school to earn 20 pounds of food each month, once they come back, this 20 pounds is gone, and the family adds another mouth. When the father hesitated, he said to me: “You also take your own ideas.”
