"Teacher Yang, do you want flowers?" Sister Liu next door was calling out to her wife again. Flowers, grass, can cultivate people's leisure and elegance, I like flowers and plants.
By the time I got out of the house, my wife had come back from the next door with a green plant in a hurry. It was a galloping dragon, with emerald green stems and leaves, rose-red buds, stretching its body around with its teeth and claws, like a fly. The wife carefully cultivated it in a pot, and in a few days the flowers would bloom.
Brother Zhu and Sister Liu next door were very good, and I still remember that when they had just moved over, several teachers in Brother Zhu's unit came to warm the pot for him, because we were close neighbors, and he solemnly invited me to accompany the guests to dinner. At that time, we did not have any friendship, but my wife and I were touched by his sincerity, and since then, the relationship between the two families has become increasingly close.
Teacher Zhu has helped me no less. When repairing the roof, he always forgot to paint on the leaky rain in my kitchen, when the door of my courtyard needed to be painted, Teacher Zhu would send him the remaining paint, and when the Couplet was pasted in the New Year, Teacher Zhu would also call his son to help me... Little things come together bit by bit, like big rivers, running endlessly in my heart. As soon as I think back on the past, my heart is warm and full of gratitude to him.
The relationship between the tenants in the alley is very harmonious. On weekdays, no matter who it is, as long as there are difficulties in the family, just need to say hello, and immediately someone will come to help; when someone is sick, everyone will get together, buy gifts, and visit the sick at home; others, such as marriage and funeral, no one can leave behind. And voila! Old Brother Chen came over, and I had to say hello to him.
Old Brother Chen is an employee of the county power supply company, and he is very practical and enthusiastic. That year, my health was sick, our husband and wife's salaries were not high, and the examination of the body required a large amount of expenses, and when we were worried, Old Brother Chen sent me a physical examination list.
"Teacher Zhang, our unit sent a physical examination list, it is free, you take it and use it!"
"However, your sister Liu is not in good health..."
"You Sister Liu, she's all right, her illness has long been cured."
Therefore, I gratefully accepted his physical examination list, but in return for him can only be a strong sense of gratitude.
My son was admitted to college, my neighbor Teacher Song came to my house, she was my past colleague and a good friend of my wife, my son was about to start school, she came to send red envelopes.
My wife and I are ordinary people's teachers, there is no great skill, Teacher Song looks up to us so much, my wife and I are naturally full of gratitude, we accepted the strong love she sent. Later, when her son got married, his wife could not forget to express our hearts.
Therefore, whenever I passed by the alley, I could not forget to stop and say hello to the people in the alley - or "Uncle Ma, you go out", or "Big Mother, you are watching the children", or "Sister Liu, you go to work", or "Teacher Wang, you go for a walk", I expressed my gratitude and touch in clumsy language.
Love, stretching out in the alley... (All pseudonyms in the text)
