This National Day is particularly meaningful for Chen Mingze, a 49-year-old child in Zhoukou City. He was born in the city and grew up in the city. He was taken back to his grandmother's house in the countryside for the first time by his parents to do farm work, and celebrated a National Day with a "Labor Day" atmosphere.
Chen Mingze is a student in the fourth grade of Wenchang Primary School in Zhoukou City. His parents are both office workers. As soon as he was born, he lived in the city and had never done farm work. "I used to feel that my child was still young and couldn't bear to take him to do farm work. I am 9 years old this year and I feel like I'm about to enter the ranks of teenagers, so I'll take him to experience it, which can be considered training for the child," said Chen Mingze's mother Zhang Zimo.
After breakfast on October 4, Chen Mingze followed the adults into the peanut field at his grandma's house. Due to floods this year, peanuts on more than one acre of land can only be harvested manually. According to the division of labor, the adults were responsible for picking peanuts and loading peanuts into the car, and Chen Mingze was responsible for "doing miscellaneous work". I saw him helping his uncle prepare peanut seedlings , and then he followed his grandma to pick up the peanuts scattered in the field. The little guy worked very seriously, and after seeing that he worked very hard, his whole family also encouraged him. With constant praise and encouragement, Chen Mingze became even more "hard" in his work, and was so tired that he was sweating profusely that he was not willing to rest.

The difference between adults is that in addition to harvesting peanuts, the little guy also has another gain: he caught a lot of crickets and . For Chen Mingze, it seems that he is not working hard, but rather like entering a farmland amusement park. "I grew up in the city. This year, I followed my parents back to my grandma's house to do farm work for the first time. I feel very happy. I feel that it is very difficult for farmers to farm. In the future, I must learn to be thrifty and not waste a grain of food." Chen Mingze said.

"Although I didn't go out to play this National Day, the whole family was reunited in the farmland to work in the autumn harvest, and took the children to experience the farm work. It felt very meaningful." Chen Mingze's mother Zhang Zimo said.
