When the circle friends went to visit him in the nursing home, the yellow shrimp could not walk independently, the words could not be spoken clearly, the body was as thin as wood, the eyes were also groggy, and the whole person had no spirit.
In March this year, Huang Shrimp died in his sleep at the age of 76, and because he had broken off contact with his family earlier, his posthumous affairs were all taken care of by friends.

Therefore, everyone should still be kind to the elderly at home, and we must also educate our children, after all, no one can escape an "old" word!
