For people around the age of 30, the National People's Congress plays an important role in memory. Throughout Beijing, the word "compound" is quite far away for us; The attribute of "children" is not always familiar to us. To put it bluntly, we are "children" who grew up in other people's big yards.

Most of us are the "three generations" of NPC. "Three generations" generally means that our grandparents are old professors of the National People's Congress. In this department, that department, we didn't understand it at that time, so we just played around, but when we grew up, we found that it was quite famous in academic circles.

Different from our parents, we have nothing in common with Tieyi Middle School (Tieshi Hutong 1, the old campus of the National People's Congress, and for the sake of distinction, Baiyi Road is called Xijiao Campus, which some old people still call it), but it also strengthens our feelings for Xijiao Campus. Our life, friends, fun and growth all take place in the National People's Congress, and they are inseparable.

Now, when I meet some NPC friends, I will say very seriously: I was born in Haidian Hospital, and when I left Haidian Hospital, I entered the door of NPC. This is no joke.

In our minds, the National People's Congress is "divided".

Our understanding of the National People's Congress is generally divided into two parts: "Jing Garden" and "Forest Garden". Of course, we didn't go to many teaching areas and office areas at that time (for fear of meeting our parents and going home). The dividing line between Jingyuan and Linyuan, as we know it, is the road at the entrance of the "old grain shop", which should be called "Jingyuan all the way" now.

On the west side of that road is Jing Park, and on the east side is Lin Park. There is an L-shaped two-story building on the roadside (that is, the east side of Beijing Park 1-3), and there are generally grain shops (there are no grain shops now), post offices, shops and a Xinhua bookstore.

The grain store has two rooms, inside and outside, selling rice and flour, as well as some soy sauce, sesame oil and vinegar. There is a big funnel outside the counter. After paying the money, the customer will put the rice and flour bag into the narrow mouth of the funnel, and the salesperson will pour the rice and flour bag into the wide mouth of the funnel with a container. I don't know why. At that time, I especially liked watching this scene, and I also had an evil thought: What would it look like if the noodle pocket leaked? The chicken flew, and the fog cleared? The grain store is not like the flat peach club of the empress dowager. The back room of the grain store is made of dried noodles, covered with rows of cooked noodles, which is very beautiful.

I didn't go to many post offices and bookstores. At that time, I didn't read much and didn't write letters. My pelvis is resistant to writing. I should have been hurt by ancient poetry when I was a child. Going to Xinhua Bookstore should be to buy a dictionary. At that time, there was no way to look up the dictionary. My grandfather taught me to go home and check.

The shop is a wonderful place for us! Even better, the day before the school organized a spring outing. Everyone has ten dollars in his pocket (at that time, ten dollars can buy things from Xian Yi, old and young), and when he goes to the supermarket to buy his own snacks the next day, there will be unprecedented cooperation, and the snack price memorized by heart and everyone's money will be drawn in his mind as soon as possible with an accurate budget constraint line, so that everyone's indifference curve can be perfectly tangent.

Compared with the forest garden, the Jingyuan building is very new. Jingyuan building is a five-story board building with a pool of water and brick red; Linyuan Mansion is a small building with four floors and four doors, with a high spire and high floors. Linyuan Building is the same age as our parents (I will focus on Linyuan Building later).

At that time, I don't know why, but people living in the Garden Building stopped playing in Jingyuan. Similarly, people who live in Jingyuan don't go to the park to play. However, when people visit each other, most of them will feel like friends for a long time. After all, they all stayed in a kindergarten at that time (note: the kindergarten of the National People's Congress was still in the northeast corner of the campus, and now it should be the location of the retirement center). I am very lucky. I lived in the forest park before I was five, lived in Jingyuan from five to ten, and moved back to the forest park after I was ten. ), until leaving the National People's Congress. So I had to play a lot at that time.

What was between the buildings of the National People's Congress?

Whether it is a static garden or a forest garden, the building spacing is relatively large, mostly small gardens, small Woods and carports. More suitable for recreation are the open space between the east side of Jingyuan 19 building and Jingyuan 12 building, the forest between Jingyuan 13 building and 14 building, the small garden between the 9th floor and 10 building, and the back of the 5th floor of Jingyuan.

The distance between Jingyuan 19 and Jingyuan 12 is larger than other Jingyuan buildings, forming a natural open stope. We like to play "chopping pot" in a fixed position in the open pit best. Chopping pot is a collective game with manhole cover (or circle the size of manhole cover) and sandbags. Because of the complexity of its rules, it was a very advanced game for us at that time, and the game was not affected by the number of people. I gradually blurred the rules of chopping pots. I will look for those children to investigate in the near future, try to remember them and introduce them in detail later. We will also use the open space to play games such as "calling numbers" or "cutting bags", but sometimes it will make a big noise and cause dissatisfaction among residents.

The small garden between the 9th floor of Forest Garden and 10 floor and the woods between the 3rd floor of Jingyuan Garden and 14 floor are the most suitable places to play some quiet games, and this game belongs to pinball. The form of pinball is simple. Although it is a technical game, it requires very little space. Just dig a few holes with stones. Our rules of playing pinball mainly have two dimensions: (1) true or false; (2) Can you change the ball? Dimension (1), "true" means that the losing side gives the ball it uses to the winning side. Dimension (2), "changing the ball" refers to whether different types of balls can be changed at different stages of the game. For example, when you are attacking, "big bubble" (a big ball) has an advantage; When you are defending, "small power" (small ball) has obvious advantages. It was exciting to play pinball (especially for real) at that time. People who play pinball well are admired as teachers. Of course, they are also afraid of being rivals with him-losing all day. What's the point?

(Note: Regarding whether Li Xiaowei's name should be "Li Xiaowei" or "Little Thunderbolt", after repeated discussions with Lawyer Fa Xiaolin, I think that the former should be the correct name, which is also the homonym of "small particle", indicating that the glass ball used is very small. At the same time, he advised me to focus on pinball, such as "great anger" and "how to take the ball out of the pot". I will build a model and talk to you later)

There is not much space behind the fifth floor of Jingyuan, but there is a row of stone platforms covering the exhaust passage in the basement. The area of the stone platform is similar to that of the table tennis case, but it is low. This is enough for a group of children. We will make a "net" with bricks, and several people will take turns to beat it twice. A group of creepy children around me are playing very well now, and I always feel that they laid a good foundation at that time. In the next few years, we will play in the old gymnasium in front of Dongfeng Building. Another game here is "Draw Foreign Paintings", which is a very traditional game. There are also some foreign pictures, such as Saint, Transformers, Seaman/Silas (which many people don't know now), and the dinosaur super cruiser (is this a little rusty? )。 Whatever it is, what matters is a process (such as pinball). Commonly used techniques are "beating (shaking)", "fan" and "sucking". The first two can be imagined, "Cue" is to form an arc on the palm of your hand, quickly cover the outer painting, and then Cue it up to achieve the purpose of turning the outer painting upside down.

No matter what kind of games, they always end up dirty and dusty, and most of them will be scolded when they go back. Of course, the large-scale hide-and-seek (or "catching people") in these buildings is also very exciting. At that time, the child was sincere and you couldn't catch him. At eight o'clock in the evening, he can really hide, and he doesn't know that he is hungry.

Finally, there is no small garden between the 9th floor of the Forest Garden and the 10 floor, because the 9th floor and the 10 floor of the Forest Garden have been demolished and should now be located on the right side of the south entrance of the new library. ...

If you have friends who grew up with old people, you are welcome to add them for me and see where I am wrong.
