As the times evolve, so does the way people live. Recalling rural life in the 70s, the life of people at that time at night was simple, but it was full of warmth and affection. First of all, family life is the main activity of rural people in the evening. Dinner was usually served in the early evening, when food was the main staple food, supplemented by home-grown vegetables. Despite the limited variety of food, people at that time felt the sweetness of life from it. After dinner, the rural housewives begin to pack up the dishes and prepare the ingredients for the next day, while the men go about feeding the poultry and tending the livestock. In those days, family life, although trivial, was full of warmth and affection. In the evenings, people gather to mingle with each other and listen to stories from their elders about the past. This kind of family exchange became an important part of people's spiritual life at that time. Second, the livelihood of rural people is closely related to agricultural production. After hard work during the day, some families take advantage of the limited light to do some manual labor, such as weaving, sewing, etc. Although these tasks are arduous, they ensure the basic livelihood of the family. During the off-season, rural people will arrange some agricultural production activities in the evening, such as drying grain and feeding poultry.
These activities are hard work, but they are related to the quality of life and income of the family**. In addition to family life and agricultural production, people in the countryside also like to organize some group activities. Collective work at night, such as building roads and water conservancy, not only helps to improve rural infrastructure, but also fosters friendship between neighbors. In addition, people in rural areas will also organize some group entertainment activities, such as watching movies and singing. These activities not only enrich people's spiritual life, but also shorten the distance between neighbors. In those days, rural people attached great importance to family and friendship. In the evenings, they would go to relatives or friends' houses to care for each other and help each other. Although life at that time was simple, it was full of warmth and affection. All in all, rural life in the 70s, although hard, was full of humanity and family warmth. Although life is different now, those memories buried by time always remind us to cherish the present and be grateful for the past. In the 70s of the 20th century, the life of rural people was relatively monotonous and boring. During the day, everyone is busy working in the fields, and in the evening, they spend a quiet night with their neighbors and friends. Although there are relatively few social interactions, people's affection, friendship and warmth are stronger.
Uncle Wang, an old farmer in his 60s, recalls life in that era with affection and emotion in his eyes. He said that although their lives are simple, they are all united. Whenever there is a good harvest, they help each other, celebrate together, and share the joy of the harvest. And when we encounter difficulties, we will also support each other and tide over them together. In addition, the evenings of that era were also full of warmth and emotion. There is no nightlife and entertainment in the village, but people can chat and chat together in the courtyard in front of their house or in front of their neighbor's house. People will share their life experiences, family trivia, or simply talk about the weather, farming. These seemingly mundane exchanges have actually become an indispensable part of people's lives. Of course, life in that era had its shortcomings. Due to the lack of transportation, people's field of vision is relatively narrow. For the outside world, they can only get some information through newspapers, radio, and other media. But even so, people's spiritual world is still full. Nowadays, people's lifestyles have changed dramatically, and the pace of life in cities is increasing day by day. But the bits and pieces of memories of that era have become the precious memories of generations of rural people.
Decades have passed, but those fond memories are still vivid. Therefore, we should cherish the present life and let these good memories be engraved in our hearts forever.
