People are afraid of loneliness when they are old, and they say what to raise children to prevent aging, but in fact, they raise children as adults, they also have their own families, their own lives, where can they always accompany their parents?
Especially in remote areas or small towns, although they hope that their children can become talents, they have to leave themselves when they become talents; If you want your child to accompany you, it is difficult for the child to have a future, which is really a dilemma.
In a certain place in Zhejiang, several college students went into the mountains to sketch, and were warmly received by a septuagenarian living alone, in order to facilitate their painting, the old man cut down the trees at the door, and the old man's request was very poignant: Talk to me more.
According to insiders, the old man's children are all working in other places, and his wife has also died, and she lives in the mountains by guarding the old house.
The children did not come to pick up the old man, but the old man was not used to living, and felt that he had caused trouble to his children, so he did not want to live, but only hoped that they would return to their hometown every New Year and live for a while, and the children had to rely on her.
Don't look at the old man is old, but his body is very good, and he loves to be clean, not only clean and refreshing, but also clean up the small yard.
On this day, a few college students came to the mountain, groped all the way for sketching, and were attracted by the scenery in front of the old man's yard, so they wanted to borrow the old man's yard to use it.
When the old man saw so many people coming, he hurriedly came out to warm the hospitality, gave up his seat again, and poured tea again. The college students talked with the old man for a long time, and said that they would draw at the door for a few days.
Such a request is undesirable for the old man, she is alone at home, she is bored, someone can talk to her, she is very happy, even if people are mainly here to paint, she can help, she is happy.
The next day, when the students rushed to the old man's house, they found that something seemed different, only to find that it turned out that a tree in the yard had been cut down by the old man overnight.
While taking out his own dried flower tea and brewing it for the students, the old man said nonchalantly that the tree blocked their view and was not convenient for them to sketch, so he cut it himself.
Although the old man said that the cloud was light and breezy, the careful student still saw the abnormality, held the old man's hand and looked carefully, all hands were injured, it was a tree, how easy was it to cut it down?
But the old man said that it was not in the way, he was used to doing farm work, and he often got hurt here and there. The old man also said that they were very happy to be able to talk with themselves.
Netizen comments
Some netizens commented that grandma looks good-faced, and must be a beauty when she is young.
Some netizens commented that all her grandma needed was companionship, and she was happy to have a group of young people talking to her, even if these were just strangers.
Some netizens also commented that even if the children do not have time to come back, they must often make a call, and the elderly are indeed lonely at home alone.
The author's opinion
It is good for the sons and daughters of the old people to leave their hometown to develop in the big cities, but for the old people who have lived in the mountains for most of their lives, it is a mixed blessing, and the children are gone, leaving her alone and lonely, and she is also lonely in her heart.
Finally, a few college students came to the mountain, and they could accompany the old man to talk, and the old man was very happy, enthusiastic to entertain, afraid that the tree in front of the door would block them from painting, and deliberately cut down the tree, which was for fear that the students would not come again.
