Uncomfortable!When I went to see my 95-year-old grandfather, I found that the whole family was old and young, and no one took care of my grandfather
During the Chinese New Year, my husband and I took our children and went to my grandfather's house with my parents to pay New Year's greetings. My grandfather was over 95 years old and could barely hear in his ears. But except for ear problems, my grandfather's body is quite tough and there are no major health problems.
At that time, the whole family gathered at the aunt's house for dinner, and the cousin bought six old hens to prepare bamboo chicken rice at the door. Everyone gathered around the door curiously**, chatting in twos and threes. Cousins, cousins, aunts, uncles, aunts, in short, all the brothers and sisters arrived, and the scene was very lively. Everyone got together and talked about their lives.
At the same time, my grandfather sat at the door, but no one paid any attention to him. Because everyone knows that my grandfather is old and can't hear with my ears, so I don't want to sit with my grandfather.
I saw my grandfather sitting at the door with a cane, his eyes were old and full of loneliness, and he looked extremely lonely.
After the separation, my grandfather has been living with my aunt and uncle. However, because my uncle and aunt were busy with work, they rarely had time to take care of my grandfather's life. My grandfather was very old, and his ears and hearing were declining, which caused a gap between him and his young life.
To solve this problem, the siblings pooled money to build a small house for their grandfather to live alone. However, since my aunt's house was a two-story bungalow with the kitchen upstairs, it was inconvenient for my grandfather to go downstairs to cook.
Although the siblings came home to visit his grandfather during the Chinese New Year, his grandfather did not seem happy.
At this time, I noticed that my husband walked up to my grandfather with a stool and talked happily with him ......
From time to time, my husband leaned his head close to my grandfather's ear and said something in a loud voiceMy grandfather seemed to hear my husband's words and instantly smiled.
I was curious to sit on a stool and listen to how my husband was so open-minded.
My grandfather happily told stories of the past, while my husband listened attentively, nodding his head from time to time. Seeing that his grandfather's eyes were red, his husband was still comforting him.
My grandfather said that he had a hard time when he was a child, and he never imagined that one day everyone would live such a happy life. He never dared to hope in his life, he didn't expect the world to develop to such an extent, he actually had a mobile phone**, every household had savings, and lived a relatively wealthy and well-off life. He said that in the past, as long as he had something to eat, he felt very happy, but today's life is simply beyond his imagination......
Seeing my grandfather so happy, I felt a wave of warmth. I think what my elderly grandfather needs most now is the company of his children. Even if it's just to chat with him, he will be so happy that he wants to cry. Even just sitting next to him and listening to him say a few words is the greatest comfort to the old man.
Before I knew it, more than two hours had passed since my husband listened to his grandfather's story.
I quietly asked my husband, "Do you understand what Grandpa is saying?"Have you ever responded to him?”
My husband smiled and said, "I just want to be a listener, just listen to my grandfather, as long as my grandfather is willing to speak, I am willing to listen." ”
It's time to eat, and everyone is holding dishes and chopsticks to prepare for dinner. I found a bowl for my grandfather and gave him the most tender chicken thigh, and he ate it deliciously and smiled again.
Unexpectedly, after eating, my grandfather quietly gave my son and daughter a red envelope of 200 yuan each.
My husband and I prepared a red envelope worth 1,000 yuan and wanted to give it to my grandfather. But unexpectedly, my grandfather refused to accept it, saying that I had a bad life after I got married, and he was most worried about me, and his living expenses had already been provided.
I kept explaining to my grandfather that this was my heart, that I was doing well, so that he didn't have to worry about it.
In the end, my grandfather reluctantly accepted it, but I clearly felt a faint sadness in my grandfather's heart.
The whole family knows that I married far away in Hunan, and my husband's family conditions were very poor. Therefore, my grandfather was always worried that my life would not be good, and I can understand his good intentions.
Seeing that my grandfather was unhappy, I hoped to do my filial piety. So, I kept explaining to my grandfather that our family had enough financial resources and my husband was very good to me. Maybe my grandfather also felt that my husband was indeed a very good person. In the end, his old man was also quite pleased to accept the red envelope.
On the way home, I looked at my husband and said in an affectionate tone, "Husband, thank you, thank you for chatting with my grandfather for two hours today." He was very happy, and I felt so comforted. In the future, we will work hard to make money, and we will go home often to see, okay?Next time, like today, you will have a good chat with your grandfather. ”
My husband said comfortingly, "As long as you are happy, we can come back at any time, and I can still earn the fare." ”
Although I don't know if my future wish can come true, the words of having a husband are enough to make me feel extremely relieved!
I wish all parents in the world good health and a peaceful old age.
