Yu Guangyuan lived to be old and played to be old

Yu Guangyuan, a well-known mainland economist and social activist, died at the age of 98. The reason why he lives a long life is inseparable from a good attitude. Yu Guangyuan is not only deeply learned, but also likes to play; he laughs and says that his longevity comes from "play" and is a "big playist".

Unique "Hi Hi" philosophy

Yu Guangyuan has a unique philosophy of "xixi". He explained it this way: the former "hi" is a verb, and the latter "hi" is a noun, meaning to like those things that make people happy. He only remembers interesting things, never recalls those hardships, and does not worry about them for no reason. He believes that it is not easy for people to go to this world, only a few short decades, if you are always entangled in those bitter things and sad things, and forget those strange things and interesting things that can bring you happiness, life will lose its original color. Therefore, no matter what unpleasant things you encounter, or what kind of illness you encounter, you must think openly, find happiness for yourself, and do not seek trouble for yourself.

Older people also have reasons to "play"

Whenever a friend visits, it is indispensable to bring Yu Guangyuan all over the world and different toys. Yu Lao said that this is "the heart of the naked child". He was quite knowledgeable about play, viewing play as a "fundamental human need." Yu Lao even joked: "At the beginning of man, sex is played." "People are born to love to play, and playing is not only a child's patent, but the elderly also have reasons to play." Yu Guangyuan often said that he was "old in body and heart", and had a young and disobedient heart. People often say "live to be old, learn to be old", because the old seems to add a "play to the old". He believes that we should "study the scholarship of play, master the technology of play, and develop the art of play." He played on the computer at 84, built his own website at 86, and started a blog at 90. Using the Hanyu Pinyin input method to type, for an old Shanghainese like him, there is a certain degree of difficulty, because the pronunciation is not accurate, he often can not find the required word, he learned to type with one finger, the first sentence he typed was "Yu Guangyuan stupid".

Loved eating vegetable puree

In life, Yu Guangyuan likes to drink alcohol, but never too much. He also loves tea and is very tasteful, and the China Tea Museum was established in Hangzhou at his suggestion in the early 1980s. Yu Guangyuan also likes music and poetry, and he likes sweets and porridge in his diet. Then eat according to your own preferences, eat happily, and be healthy. After entering old age, he very much likes to eat vegetable puree things. The so-called vegetable puree is to make vegetables and other raw materials into a puree, Yu Lao believes that this is a kind of food suitable for the elderly with bad teeth.
