In the past, there were not many literate people in the village, and my uncle and grandfather did not have a high level of education, so he knew a few big characters, and he didn't know where to get a fountain pen, and put a cultural person in his pocket, and everyone said that he put a green onion in his nose - pretending to be an elephant.
One day, a man in the village received a letter from a friend. The content was written with a ligature, like a line of grass, and he couldn't understand anything.
The man thought that his uncle and grandfather were a cultured person, so he found his uncle and grandfather and said to him, "I can't understand this word, can you help me read this letter?"”
Uncle and grandfather took the letter and read it, he couldn't understand it, he was afraid of being embarrassed, so he said to the man: "Brother, this letter is written in cursive, and I can't read it well, please find someone else to read it for you." ”
When the man heard this, he felt a little strange, and said to his uncle and grandfather depressedly: "You have a pen in your pocket, and you say that you don't know these words, don't you feel ashamed?"”
My uncle's face turned red, and he immediately took out the pen, stuffed it into the man's hand, and said, "Okay, if the pen can read, hold it quickly, and read it yourself!"”
Since then, my uncle and grandfather have taken literacy classes seriously, read books and newspapers in their spare time, and their culture has improved a lot, and later they often help the villagers write letters.
