How did you survive the winter in rural China 20 years ago?

Twenty years ago, I was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and I had just walked from the countryside to school and started a collective school life!

School life made us feel the superiority of the socialist system, and for the first time, I saw the radiators for central heating, and it turned out that I could also wear thin clothes to spend the winter in winter! But these are not available in the countryside! At that time, in the countryside, when everyone spent the winter, they mainly relied on the fire kang for heating!

Every household piles up the summer and autumn grain and firewood together to form a large firewood pile! In the winter, we start to go to the kang around 5 p.m. every day! It is to send a large pile of wheat straw by hand, put it next to the kang eye, and then stuff the corn stalks prepared in advance into the kang!

Ignited with wheat straw, when we fan halfway with a fan, we can slowly turn off the kang eye! In this way, the burning of the corn stalk will slowly start to burn, and the energy accumulated from the burning of the corn stalk will burn the whole kang very hot, so that the person sleeping on the kang will feel very warm!

When I was a kid in the countryside, we spent almost all winter like this! When I think about it now, I was really happy!

I often hear my parents talk about how they spent the winter 20 years ago, when I was just born

In terms of heating, it is mainly heated by briquettes on fire. My parents said that in that era, because of people's weak safety awareness, coupled with the fact that briquettes were easy to produce carbon monoxide that was not completely burned, and it was easy to be poisoned by gas, many people accidentally lost their lives. And our family also once almost died of gas poisoning for a family of three, fortunately my dad opened the window in the last remaining consciousness, and the family of three fainted, but in the end fortunately woke up again in the case of ventilation, otherwise it would have caused irreparable **.

In terms of diet, the main food of rural people during the winter is pickled vegetables. At that time, the living conditions were not like now, but now the conditions are gradually getting better, people often eat sausages and salted duck, at that time they ate pickled cabbage and pickled dried radish, and there was no money to buy fresh vegetables to eat, so at that time, the rural people became more yellow and thin in winter.

<> "Generally ask about the cold in the south, or the cold in the north? Everyone will definitely talk about it that it must be cold in the north, but everyone ignores that although it is cold in the north, there is heating, and no matter how cold it is in the south, it can only be dry. Especially in the countryside, when the weather is cold, everyone can only gather around to bake the fire.

But it's also quite lively and fun, you can roast the fire while roasting the fire, and you can also roast sweet potatoes to eat. Isn't it quite warm to drive? Look at these grandmothers, everyone chatted around the fire, and the day passed quickly.

The neighbor next door came to the door to make a fire. This kitten will also enjoy it.

Now that it has come to the cold winter season, the cold has officially begun, many office workers complain that the ghost weather freezes to death, in fact, it is not as cold as before, more than ten years ago, or even more than twenty years ago, the winter is far colder than now, just look at the glass on the house.

There was no heating, no underfloor heating, and no air conditioning in those days, so how did they survive the winter? In fact, at that time, winter was very simple, and people also used this kind of economic way to keep warm.

Honeycomb coal is no stranger to everyone, and every household had a stove when I was a child. The chimney sticks out of the window, and there is always a lump of yellow ice.

There is usually hot water boiling on the stove, and it can also be used to roast steamed buns and sweet potatoes, and the house is fragrant.

Hot water bottles, those who have money buy hot water bottles, those who don't have money use infusion bottles to keep warm, sleep in the quilt at night, hold hands or feet, very warm.

When I was a child, there was no brand of clothes, if I had to say that there were, it was grandma's brand cotton pants and my mother's brand sweater, which were basically made of cotton, a little hard, but also very warm.

In winter, vegetables can't be put away. At that time, each farmer would store Chinese cabbage in the cellar so that it could be eaten in winter.

At that time, there was no water heater for bathing, and there were no bath bombs that we commonly see in our lives now, so we all went to the big bathhouse when we took a bath, and generally washed it once a month, or waited until the New Year to wash it.

When I was a child, everyone had such a flower quilt, bright and thick, no down and no goose down, it was white and soft cotton, very thick, although a little heavy, but really warm.

Sometimes the wind would come in through the cracks, and then families would nail the inner bags of the fertilizer bags to the windows to keep the wind out.

Elementary school students do not have a car to go to school, and they are tightly wrapped by their parents to go to school, and there may be roasted sweet potatoes and rock sugar gourds sold on the street.

Don't look at the cold winter, it is the favorite season for children, snowball fights, ice skating, and fun!

In the winter of the north wind, it is very cold and cold, and the snow is blowing in the wind, so what if the countryside is warm? How did you survive this long winter? Let's reminisce together.

1. Ondol. Ondol is the safest and most effective way to heat rural areas in winter. However, it is not suitable for all regions, and it is generally not used in rural areas with dry inland climates. Risk factor: half a star.

2. Honeycomb stove.

Honeycomb stove, this is a relatively early heating measure in rural areas, this kind of furnace has a certain danger, it is easy to cause carbon monoxide poisoning in a well-sealed room, and a chimney needs to be installed when using this kind of furnace in rural areas. Risk factor: three stars.

3. Stove. In rural areas, there is also a kind of heating stove, which can burn charcoal or corn stalks, and this kind of heating measure in rural areas is relatively safe. Risk factor: two stars.

4. An electric mattress.

For rural areas without kang, sleeping at night is a torment, and many villagers will choose to use electric mattresses. Risk factor: three stars.

5. Little Sun.

The little sun has now become a way for villagers to keep warm in winter. Risk factor: two stars.

6. Radiator stove.

Do you know what this stove is for? This is a stove used for burning soil for heating in rural areas, and the iron tank on the upper part of the stove is pressurized to promote the circulation of water in the radiator. If the pipe is blocked, it can easily be caused**. Risk factor: four stars.

7. Liquefied gas furnace heating.

8. Floor heating. Floor heating is now used by many rural people as a heating method, which is convenient and simple, but consumes a lot of electricity.

Do you have any ways to warm up? Let's talk about it.

The winter in the Northeast is quacky cold, not ordinary cold. I am over 60 years old this year, and I remember when I was a child, I got up early one day, and the door of my house couldn't be opened, because it was blocked by heavy snow, so I had to open the window and jump out to clean the snow in front of the door! It's not cold at night, so you have to sleep around the firewood and the lamb in your arms.

As the climate warms, it's not so cold now, and in the case of Shenyang, Liaoning Province, it's minus 20 to 30 degrees Celsius at the coldest time.

Winter heating in rural areas varies from region to region, and we in the south are more embarrassed in terms of winter heating: there is no heating kang and heating like in the north. In the past, charcoal fires were used to heat the countryside by means of barrels and stoves.

And now many homes in rural areas have air conditioning. But it is still dominated by charcoal fires.

For several years, boilers or floor heating have been burned, and now natural gas is connected, so natural gas is naturally used.

It's another cold winter, when we are blowing the warm air conditioner at home and playing with our mobile phones, we feel really happy, especially lying in the bed, and sighing in our hearts that the current conditions are better and people's living standards have improved. I still remember that the conditions were not good in the past, because in the cold winter, I tried all kinds of ways to keep warm. I still remember it when I think about it.

I don't know if you remember how you used to warm yourself when you were a child.

One: Make a fire on the spot to keep warm. Two:

Briquettes stove for heating. Three: small sun heating.

Now at home, there is air conditioning, there are radiators, and life has really changed a lot.

Twenty years ago, in order to keep warm, in order to keep warm, everyone gathered around the stove to keep warm, and then collected firewood everywhere so that there could be enough firewood to burn in winter.

At that time, the countryside was all burning firewood to roast fires, and my grandmother piled up a lot of firewood in the backyard, and in winter, she would take out a few large pieces to roast the fire, and the family would talk with red melon seeds.

In our south, 20 years ago, the winter heating basically relied on shaking, and if you couldn't stand the cold at home, you would go out to bask in the sun, anyway, this is how you basically survived the winter.
