Hangzhou Chengdong Park in the early morning has always been a morning exercise for middle-aged and elderly people. Dancing fans, sword dancers, whip-wielding, tai chi fighters... Looking around, the folk are all masters, chasing deer in the east of the city, domineering side leakage.
There is a pair of old people, no matter the wind and snow, every morning at six or seven o'clock, must be along the Tiesha River is just a circle of walks. The woman, wearing a white hat and purple down, snuggled up to her uncle's arm and walked slowly, looking very warm.
Some people say that this couple should be a divine eagle couple, love Oh! I don't think about it, but this is for mother and child. The mother is almost 100 years old, and the son is 73 years old this year. The son accompanied his mother to take a walk in the morning, walking quietly, walking and walking in the blink of an eye for 13 years, becoming a beautiful landscape.
Having worked as an English teacher, the 98-year-old woman has a clear and humorous mind
"It's long overdue, just don't go, waste food"
The old man's name is Wang Yanzhen, 98 years old this year, and he lives in the old neighborhood with his son, sun yat-in, and his daughter-in-law. Before the Spring Festival, the reporter went to visit this family.
More than 80 square meters of high-rise suites, the house is clean and clean, open, east of the Tiesha River, the view is very open, and there is also lighting in the south.
"Come in and sit down." The old lady beckoned and was polite. In the living room, a painting of Sha Menghai's calligraphy is written with Chairman Mao's words "West Wind Lie".
Praising the old lady for being young, she smiled, and shyly covered her face with her hands like a girl, "Old man." It should have gone a long time ago, but it just doesn't go now, and there is no way. Living in this world, wasting food. "The old lady is very clear-thinking, humorous, and speaks at a speed like a young man.
She turned to look at her son—"If they are involved with me, it will take a lot of energy." He himself enjoys sightseeing. But I'm here, he always has a burden and wants to settle me down. ”
"Don't think about this kind of thing, just be healthy and healthy." I actually didn't have to burden, I felt like enjoying it. Big Brother Sun smiled.
The old lady graduated from the private Yunzhong Girls' High School in Shanghai when she was young, and was introduced by her colleagues to Sun Hongyu, who was teaching at Jinling University in Nanjing (a church school run by americans at that time), and then fell in love, got married, and had three sons. Sun Zhong, now 73 years old, is the eldest in the family.
At that time, the young couple, the husband successively taught at Nanjing Jinling University, Zhejiang Agricultural College Horticulture Department, the old lady also worked as an accountant of Zhejiang Agricultural College and an English teacher at Hangzhou Railway Middle School (now Qingtai Experimental Middle School) when she was young.
Old photographs record the elegance and romance of that era: rafting in Xuanwu Lake in Nanjing, asking for tea in Longjing, Hangzhou, playing in the Nine Streams...
In the special era, the couple was successively sent to the rural areas of Yuhang for labor training, the eldest son Sun Zhong went to the Qiaosi Laogai Farm, and the two younger sons went to the countryside to Heilongjiang.
"Then my mother came back first. At that time, our family was scattered, and my mother was alone in Hangzhou. I rode back from Jossy every Sunday to help with some chores and rode back early Monday morning. Elder Brother Sun said, "Our family is because my mother is here, and everyone can finally get together again." ”
The old lady waved her hand, meaning that it was all in the past, there was nothing to talk about, "I will say, no heart, no lungs, not tired of living." ”
Elder Brother Sun looked at his mother and smiled, "At that time, we moved here (now home), in the sixties, I was still a child, in the fifth grade of Daomao Lane Primary School." Now I'm an old man! ”
The 73-year-old son walks with his mother every day
Regardless of the wind and snow, it took 13 years to go
Others think it is a couple, and they all say good love!
Big Brother Sun wears a pair of glasses, wears a hooded sweatshirt, has black hair, and is very bookish.
"Dyed. Never let it be completely white, not too old-fashioned. He said.
Speaking of which, Big Brother Sun has also retired for more than ten years. Since 2009, Brother Sun began to walk with his mother, "At that time, my mother herself was often active, so it was not as regular as it is now every day." Now the amount of exercise is small, and the vision is also poor, so I said that I must accompany the trip once a day, and the organs of the whole body are slightly moved, and a little sweat can be. ”
Brother Sun got up at 4 o'clock every morning, boiled water, made breakfast for his family, went out by himself at 5 o'clock, and walked all the way to Genshan Gate and came back.
The 6 o'clock sun just enters the house, gentle and not dazzling. When her mother got up, Brother Sun and his wife served her breakfast and then went out with her. Just along the river, from Qingchun Road to Fengqi Road, and then walk back in a circle. Sometimes my mother couldn't walk, so he took her to sit in the park.
On a rainy day, Brother Sun held an umbrella for his mother; on a snowy day, he just accompanied his mother to watch the snow.
In this way, the mother and son did not count, and even 13 years down.
"It turned out that there were a lot of old people in our building, and we walked together and often encountered them. Then one after another, basically did not fall. Elder Brother Sun said, "Some old people, it turned out that a person went out to walk, and then no one accompanied him, and slowly did not leave." In fact, at this age, it is best to have a certain amount of exercise per day. ”
In this area of Chengdong Park, there is a group of uncles and aunts who practice tai chi in the morning, and the teacher who takes the lead in teaching meets with Brother Sun a lot, and slowly becomes familiar with each other, and always greets each other.
The old lady was also careful, seeing that every time she passed by the tai chi master, she always had to stop and say hello, afraid of affecting their rhythm, so she simply stopped far away and turned around to walk around again.
There are several uncles with raw faces, who see this pair from a distance, and only think that they are husband and wife, and praise their good feelings.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa When the old lady heard this, she clapped her hand on her son's shoulder and smiled closely.
The husband treats the mother like this
The daughter-in-law has also been looking in the eyes
The husband treated his mother in this way, and the lover of the eldest brother Sun also saw it in his eyes and was deeply infected. Taking advantage of the work of Elder Brother Sun to get up, she sat down and told some stories with emotion.
"In the 1980s, my husband often rode a small three-wheeler to take my mother to the West Lake Scenic Area. When he retired, he learned to drive, just to take the old man to the ancient towns around Hangzhou, pushing her a wheelchair.
My mother-in-law had broken bones several times, and each time she had to lie in bed for several months. He accompanied him to do rehabilitation training, and actually recovered very well, without any sequelae.
For decades, it was normal to massage my mother's back regularly every day, rub her back in hot water, and wash her feet in hot water. He was treated as a treat. ”
"In fact, our generation has suffered hardships in the countryside and tasted the hardships of life, and most people know how to be grateful and treat the elderly well. It is a very simple truth, the crow can feed back, and what about us? She said.
Mother and child have their own ways
The child said, "It's so big and there's a mother, it's enjoyment."
The mother said, "The daughter-in-law is good, the son is good."
"People often say that at such an old age, there is still a mother, very few and very few." My dad left early, so I always felt that I could still have my mother accompany me and talk about the day, which was a very enjoyable feeling. ”
Speaking of getting along with his mother, Big Brother Sun actually has his own reasoning-
"The old man is in good health, and I am comfortable myself." Don't look at me spending time with her every day to walk around like this, the average person thinks about it, every day, sometimes not happy. But if she is not in good health and lies in bed, will I spend more time with her? And there is no point in accompanying this time, even urinating and defecating have to be served, she suffers, I also suffer. Now run out, everyone has said and laughed, isn't it pretty good? ”
The old lady sat next to her, listening with her ear to the side, and added, "Our daughter-in-law is also very good." Get some food and drink, very patient and patient. The daughter-in-law is good, the son is good. ”
Last year, Brother Sun also took his mother on the high-speed train and went to live in his daughter's house in Beijing for more than two months. The old lady was with her two twin great-grandchildren and was very happy.
100-year-old mother, you can also dance waltz!
In Brother Sun's room, there were two conspicuous large photo albums, full of old photos he had sorted out and scanned and printed.
The memories of his parents' lives were well collected by him.
"My grandfather was from the Nanjing Salt Bureau at that time (before liberation), and he took his parents with him on Sundays, so they took a lot of pictures at that time." Brother Sun introduced one by one, this kind of photo is a picnic by the West Lake, this is in the head of The Yangba...
The old lady leaned back and watched quietly, thoughtfully.
Two of them are photos of an old lady dancing with her wife on her wedding anniversary.
"Waltz," tango..." The old lady suddenly uttered two words.
"Now, I see you can't jump." Son said.
The old lady poured out with interest, "If someone brings it, I can jump." It's just a three-step dance, right. ”
"You come and take me." She struggled to prop herself up from her chair, raising her left hand first and then her right hand.
The sunset outside the window was red, and a gentle and light three-step dance song sounded in the room, "Bouncing rub, bounce rub, bounce rub -"
The reporter carefully looked at the photo album of Sun Zhong's eldest brother. The photos of his father and mother's life are carefully typeset by him in order, refreshing and elegant. What's even more rare is that most of the photos have notes accurate to the year, month, day and place.
Many photos have the West Lake, Longjing, Nine Streams and Eighteen Streams of the last century... Probably many hangzhou people among readers may not have seen it.
