上世纪70年代的农村,主题就两个字:饥饿。母亲更加不幸,因为过度生育,生育了我们兄弟姐妹七人,成活了四个,加上超负荷劳动,才四十多岁的母亲,得了贫血病,根本原因是营养不良,家中有点好的,得先给老人和孩子还有出力的父亲,所以轮到她,只有残汤剩饭。我记得好像是1974年,母亲病得已不能参加生产队集体劳动了,给队长杨麻子说了半箩筐好话,才特许母亲在家休息。养病,除了不做活,还要增强营养。可是拿什么增加营养呢? The last century 70’s in rural areas, the theme of the word: hunger. My mother is even more unfortunate because her over-fertility has given birth to seven of our brothers and sisters and has survived four. Coupled with overworked work, her mother in her forties has developed anemia. The root cause is malnutrition and her family a little better. Have to give the elderly and children first to contribute to the father, it is her turn, only residual soup leftovers. It seems to me that in 1974 my mother was too ill to participate in the collective work of the production team. I spoke to Yang Mazi, the captain, for a half-boasted remark before my mother was allowed to rest at home. Recuperation, in addition to not living, but also enhance nutrition. But what to increase nutrition?
