Interview with Zeng Qingyun

Zeng Qingyun said that the famine was most serious in 1959 and 1960. The head of the village sold all grain to the state so show his loyalty so Huangjuwo village has the most people died of starvation. A temporary hospital was later set up for those who were sick because of starvation. A little food was provided, hoping to save some lives. He said that those who guarded the filed at night all stole from the field, and remembered that his father brought back some broad beans for him.

曾庆云说59、60年饥荒最严重，村长太积极，把粮食都上交了，所以黄举窝村饿死的人最多。村里后来建起了临时医院把饿病的人统一收进去，提供一些食物希望挽救些人。夜里在田里守夜的人会偷吃地里的东西，他爸爸就曾偷蚕豆回来给他吃。
