Those memories that I thought were forgotten come back

Liu Xing was born in 1982, and I happen to be of the same generation

When I was in elementary school, once my dad took me for a walk, it was raining and foggy in the small town,

An uncle approached, my dad stopped and had a chat with him

Sounds familiar, but speaks lightly

He turned around and left, my dad whispered to me that his child died in an accident two days ago

This should be the first time in my memory that I have come into contact with death, so I quickly looked back at him

I thought I had forgotten about the back figure that was hunched over in the rain and fog, but when I saw Liu Yaojun last night, I came back all at once.

My dad's work is related to family planning. When he was very young, sometimes he would go out suddenly in the middle of the night and ask my mother what he was doing.

My mother said that I had a big belly and ran away, so I went to chase it back. I listened to it and never thought about it.

But soon the situation changed. In this developed town in southern Jiangsu, the fertility rate is going down every year, and soon there will be no need to chase after the belly.

The steady stream of migrants, how to let them have children and raise children in the new city has become the focus of my father's work

Of course, this is also my own judgment. My dad rarely mentions work. The only time he came to see me was after I got married.

After talking about work and doing homework, he suddenly said, "You know, many elderly people who lost their only children recently went to Beijing?" i said i don't know

He sighed and said, most of them lost their children in their 30s or 40s and 40s and 50s, and they couldn't give birth again. What should they do?

There is simply no point in living, he added.

When my father retired, the country let go of the second child, I never thought to ask him, is this life ridiculous?

When I watched the movie, I kept thinking that all love and hatred are brought about by children,

Therefore, to Liu Yaojun, Wang Liyun, and everyone inside, the child is like a belief, an unbreakable truth.

However, who would have thought that after only thirty years, the faith has been broken

Isn't it even more ridiculous that people don't want to have children anymore?

Let me say a few words about the movie. Of course, Yongmei and Wang Jingchun in the movie are excellent, but I always feel that it is not very natural.

The charm of Yong Mei seems to be more suitable for the wife of Nie Yinniang. Wang Jingchun's face is out of place to say such literary and artistic words

On the contrary, several supporting roles are more moving. Haiyan and Meiyu are like more real women. Although Du Jiang and Wang Yuan are young, they are not abrupt.

My favorite is Jasmine. She is beautiful and flamboyant, and her life is transparent and real. In the end, the mixed-race face appears, which seems to add a little playfulness to the sad background.

Although the movie depicts scenes from Inner Mongolia and Fujian, the 1980s feels so familiar. The dance hall and the big teapot remind me of my childhood.

Thirty years, the mountains and rivers have changed dramatically, and people's hearts have changed
