Documenting my romantic life
The plum blossoms in the courtyard are blooming, and it is the time when the winter snow is drifting. After dinner, I sat under the eaves in a cotton dress and admired the snow, surrounded by a steaming stove.
After a while, my mother brought me a cup of lotus leaf tea, and scolded me softly: "The weather is cold in the cold winter of Layue, and the clothes are so thin, it should be frozen for a while." ”
I turned my head and muttered to my mother, "Don't be afraid, there is wormwood left by my grandmother, even if I have a cold and cold, soak my feet in the old recipe left by my grandmother, wormwood hot water, and all diseases will be eliminated." ”
When I said this, my nose suddenly sore, and tears fell to the ground. Yes, I think of my grandmother, who passed away for two years, her voice and smile, and the care and warmth she took to me in the past.
I still remember when I was a child, I was cared for by my parents and elders since I was born because of my weak and sick body. At that time, the friends in the village laughed at me: delicate like Lin Daiyu, a lady with a daughter's style, and she needed someone to accompany her when she walked out.
When I was a child, my friends' fairy tales were unscrupulous, although I knew that they were all jokes, but I was still sad and sad in my heart. At this time, my mother and grandmother would always come forward to reprimand those "ignorant" children, and then turn around and gently comfort and enlighten me.
When I was 7 years old, I was old enough to go to school. At that time, my parents had to go out to earn a living and earn money in order to make a living.
Originally, they were going to take my brother and me out of the house to rent a house and work in other places. However, my grandmother felt sorry for my frail body and couldn't stand the days of wandering outside, so she took me over to raise and take care of me.
At that time, the three uncles in the family were all married and had children, and my grandfather and grandmother had to take care of their six grandchildren and cultivate the family's farmland.
My mother couldn't bear my grandmother's tiredness and hard work, and she was reluctant to agree at first. It wasn't until my grandmother lost her temper and scolded her that she reluctantly sent me to my grandmother's house.
When I first arrived at my grandmother's house, my grandmother first set rules for my cousins, cousins and cousins, who had always been naughty at home, and reprimanded them not to bully or squeeze me, let alone allow me to be wronged or hurt outside.
For my grandmother's favoritism and care, the three aunts unanimously had no objections or complaints, and everyone treated me like a treasure in their hands.
And it is precisely because of my grandmother's special care that even the people in my grandmother's village are very kind to me, including those children of the same age, who always come to me to play kindly and enthusiastically.
I have always been arrogant and pure, I don't like to be noisy and noisy, coupled with the unfamiliar environment and family, my heart is more lonely than before.
Since moving into my grandmother's house, I always like to sit alone under the banana tree in front of my door in the middle of summer, or watch my cousin catch crickets in the field in front of me from afar.
And every now and then, my grandmother would always bring a plate of my favorite snacks, sit beside me gently, and caress my forehead lovingly: "Qinqin, be bolder, with grandma here, don't be afraid, girls should also grow up, there is still a long way to go, be brave and bold." ”
I always remember my grandmother's every word. Many years later, whenever I reminisce about the old days, the tears in the corners of my eyes will always wet my clothes.
Later, in the winter, my parents took my younger brother home for the New Year. And I'm going to be sent home by my grandmother. Before leaving, I refused to leave with tears in my eyes, and my grandmother wiped her tears vigorously.
When my uncle carried me into the car, I, who had been silent all this time, suddenly leaned on the window and shouted to my grandmother: "Grandma, grandma!".”
The call of "grandma" made my grandmother's liver and intestines break and tears rained down, and I was even more sad.
A few days after I went back, because of my mother's busyness and neglect to take care of me, I began to catch a cold and cold, and no matter what medicine I took, the fever could not be reduced or improved. Later, my grandmother learned about this, and she walked alone on a snowy mountain road and brought me a bag of herbs and wormwood.
In this way, under the careful care of my grandmother, I took the medicine for three days in a row, and finally the pain was eliminated and my body was cured. Since then, whenever I have a cold or cold, I always soak my feet in wormwood hot water. My grandmother knew that I was weak, so every year I would go to the fields to collect herbs and wormwood to prepare for my needs.
In the early morning of January 4, 2022, my grandmother, who had advanced stomach cancer, was finally dying. At that time, it was my mother and uncles who accompanied and served by my side. I'm the only one who has loved her granddaughter all her life, but she is thousands of miles away for various reasons.
Mother said that when my grandmother left, she confessed everything, including the work, life, and family of the three uncles, and the last sentence was about me, and she kept muttering before she died: "Qinqin married to another place, I have been worried about her, afraid that she will be wronged, you must take care of her, and no one is allowed to bully her." ”
Two months later, when my mother told me about my grandmother's last wishes, I was so sad and broken that my heart was full of remorse and reluctance.
Now that the New Year is approaching, it has been two years since my grandmother passed away last year. Looking at the falling snowflakes, the tears in my eyes slowly fell, and the wind chimes sounding in the wind under the eaves, I only thought in my heart: Grandma, I miss you.
