My father and mother were both native farmers, and my mother's primary school education, which can read a few words, is enough in the countryside. His father was highly Chinese, and the village said that he would go to the primary school as a substitute teacher, and the level should be enough. But at that time, the family was poor, and my father was not satisfied with the status quo, and won the role of a side business in the large group. Since then, my father has often traveled from place to place, and there are not many days at home, and all the affairs in the family are responsible for by the mother, busy and busy, and there is no moment of idleness. People in the village say that mothers are like grandmothers, and they are all hard-working. In fact, who doesn't want to live a rich and comfortable life? Who doesn't want to be an idler and live in peace? I know that both fathers and mothers want to live a good life so that their children will no longer live as hard as they do!
△ The above picture is taken by the sister-in-law during the Lantern Festival in 2019, and the parents are grinding beans and making tofu in their hometown at this time, and the scene is harmonious and warm!
The father and mother toiled all their lives and had almost no comfort. Today, my parents are nearly seventy, and although I don't have to work as hard as before, I still can't stop my busy pace! On the eve of the Lantern Festival in 2019, at our request and in accordance with the customs of her hometown, my mother soaked the soybeans early and picked them outside the village to grind soy milk. It turned out that there was a stone mill in the village, and to get a tofu to mobilize the whole family: 2 people took turns to push the mill, 1 person put beans, and 1 person boiled water at home. Grinding tofu is not idle for the family, which is very troublesome. Nowadays, it saves a lot of things and can be done by 2 people. When the mother picked back the soy milk, the father had already prepared a business, only to wait for the soy milk to boil, and the molded tofu was formed. A few hours later, the tofu was formed, the parents jointly lifted the gauze, the heat was in the air, and the sister-in-law quickly snapped the picture, leaving the father and mother such a harmonious and warm moment! In fact, my father and mother often quarreled in the past days. It's just that the father has a good temper and doesn't bother with his mother, otherwise, the days of chicken flying and dog jumping can't be maintained. In the countryside, which one will not have a bad thing? Parental quarrels are a common occurrence. In recent years, the temper of parents has improved a lot, perhaps the years have smoothed out their respective edges and corners. This photo is in front of me, and I feel a lot of emotions! The days are always in the past, life still goes on, may the beauty of life always stay in your heart! Oh my father and mother, with your lifelong toil as a shadow, the life of our brother and sister will be as red as the pepper in front of us!
