I was born in a small mountain village, my parents died young, and my divorced aunt raised me.
My aunt is my father's eldest brother's former wife, because my aunt's ex-husband, that is, my uncle, is not a man who takes care of the family.
She was an ordinary rural woman, hardworking, kind, and tenacious, and she couldn't bear it anymore and divorced my uncle.
And my aunt, who has been divorced for many years, has never had children of her own, and has not chosen to remarry, but looks at me without parents and feels pity and chooses to take on the responsibility of raising me alone.
At that time, she was in her forties and was not in good health.
But she said that even if she is divorced, her ex-husband's brother's child is innocent, and how can this child live without his parents.
It was not easy for my aunt to raise me, and I watched her work harder and harder, and I was grateful but unable to reciprocate.
I remember back then, she always got up early to make me breakfast and then took me to school.
When I came home from school in the afternoon, I could always see her waiting for me at the door, holding my favorite snacks in her hand.
Her love for me, though unassuming, is deep and unwavering.
One day after school, I came home crying and my aunt asked me what was wrong.
I told her that my classmates laughed at me for not having a mother.
When my aunt heard this, she comforted me and said, "Son, you are different from them, you have an aunt who loves you, and you have a family that loves you.
Don't care about their ridicule, be confident and be strong. ”
From that day on, my aunt would drop me off at school every day and wait for me at the school gate.
Her appearance made me feel extremely warm and made me more confident.
When I was in college, my aunt even went out to work in order to earn money for my tuition.
She always did her best to send me living expenses and some groceries to make my life better in college.
I remember one year, it was a cold winter, and I was in the classroom.
Suddenly, I received a package containing a sweater and a letter knitted by my aunt herself.
The letter reads: "Child, the weather is cold, you have to take good care of yourself and don't catch a cold.
Auntie knits this sweater and hopes you'll be warmer. ”
I hugged the sweater and tears welled up in my eyes.
I know that my aunt is very busy at work, and she must have spent a lot of time and energy to knit this sweater for me.
Another time, I was eating in the cafeteria and suddenly received a package containing a box of hometown specialties and some cash.
In the letter, the aunt wrote: "Son, I know that you like to eat the specialties of your hometown, and I bought them for you.
In addition, this cash will be used for your living expenses, and I hope you can live better. ”
I looked at the souvenirs and the cash, and a warm current welled up in my heart.
My aunt's own life was not easy, but she left all the good things to me.
I remember when I was a child, my aunt always played with me, taught me to do housework, and tutored me in my studies.
At that time, I often saw my aunt sitting alone in front of the window at night, looking into the distance, and there was a hint of loneliness in her eyes.
I asked her, "Auntie, why don't you get married?" ”
She smiled and replied, "Child, Auntie already has the most precious treasure, and that is you."
With you, Auntie doesn't need anything else. ”
As time went by, I grew up, and through my own efforts, I entered a state-owned enterprise and gradually succeeded in my career.
My aunt looked at my achievements today, and her heart was full of pride and relief.
It was a sunny weekend and I brought my aunt to my office.
The aunt looked at the furnishings in the office and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Child, look at your present, you have a stable job and a bright future, Auntie is really proud of you." ”
I looked at my aunt and my heart was filled with gratitude.
I know that I can be where I am today is the result of my aunt's hard work.
With the development of my state-owned enterprises, I have the ability to repay my aunt's efforts.
I decided to bring my aunt to the city to live with her, so that she could enjoy better medical care and elderly care conditions.
At first, the aunt categorically disagreed, believing that she was used to life in the countryside and did not want to leave that place.
But I insisted, and eventually she agreed.
When my aunt came to town, I would go home every day after work to accompany her, take her to the park for walks, and participate in community activities together.
I enrolled her in a dance class for seniors, and her life became colorful.
Seeing my aunt's smile, I knew I had made the right decision.
Once, while walking around the neighborhood, my aunt met an old uncle who was about the same age, and they quickly became friends.
The old man had a wealth of experience and knowledge, and she talked a lot about life and family with her aunt.
Through communication with the old man, the aunt became more open-minded and tolerant.
Together, they participate in community activities to help those in need.
The aunt found her worth in the process, and her life became more meaningful.
I watched my aunt's growth, and my heart was filled with relief and gratitude.
Now that my aunt has integrated into the life of the city, she is no longer lonely, no longer lonely.
I know that there is always a place for someone in her heart, and that is me.
And I will always be by my aunt's side and give her the greatest happiness and love.
