Today, when I went back to my hometown to visit my 83-year-old parents, there were seven or eight elderly people aged 75 to 94 sitting in the courtyard of my house. Seeing me come back, everyone's topic turned to I am very filial, often come back to see my parents, the neighbor's 94-year-old grandmother said, his grandson has not seen a figure since the New Year, I bought the cantaloupe to put it on the plate and take it out, the white rabbit toffee out, and the red dates are also used as snacks.
I found that my 94-year-old grandmother loves candy and ate two candies in a row. said that she also wanted to eat cantaloupe, but she didn't wear dentures and couldn't chew on it, but the sugar could be eaten with her mouth, sweet, which was really happy.
I asked my neighbor's grandmother what she usually ate, and I wanted to learn about it too. Because she is 94 years old, she has always been in good health, she doesn't know what the three highs are, she has no serious illness, and she has no yang when we are yang. I have not been vaccinated, I have not been quarantined with my family, and I cook for my 70-year-old daughter-in-law. At that time, my parents were impotent.
So everyone told me about the living habits and eating habits of the neighbor's grandmother, and summarized the following points:
Everyone said that grandma's generation actually didn't have anything to eat, there was no vegetable oil in the past, and then there was a piece of fatty meat. Now that the conditions are good, you can put a big spoonful of lard in the stir-fried vegetables, and the fried vegetables are fragrant and green, and the society is really good now.
Even if the conditions are good, my grandmother still loves to eat pickled cabbage, dried radish, and saulrabi fried pork belly made by herself. I love salted fish, I think it's very fragrant, and a small piece can be a bowl of rice. Drink pork rib soup once or twice a week, drink it at noon, and eat local melon porridge for dinner to digest well.
Grandma smoked a few puffs of sweat cigarettes when she was thinking about her grandfather, she didn't smoke before, and occasionally smoked a few puffs after her grandfather passed away, and she lived alone for 12 years.
Drink a small glass of self-brewed rice wine every night when she falls asleep, she says that this habit has been 50 years, when soaking her feet before going to bed, drink a small glass of rice wine, with a few fried peanuts, after drinking the body is very warm, good to sleep. Anyway, the wine will be brewed by itself, so you don't need to spend money to buy it, and you will get used to it while you drink it.
In the summer, my grandmother usually gets up at 5 a.m. to cook and eats breakfast by 6 a.m. Work in the fields with my grandfather. Take care of the housework at night, and usually go to bed at 9:30.
After winter, the weather is cold, generally get up at 5:30, eat breakfast at 6:30, work in the field, go to bed around 8 at night and fall asleep for a while.
Grandma has always had the habit of taking a lunch break, every day after lunch, tidying up the dishes and chopsticks, feeding the chickens, ducks and dogs, she took a lunch break for about an hour and a half.
Grandma is very hardworking all her life, and all the work outside the home is packaged, grandpa is a 1.5 meter, short person, and grandma is 1.68 meters tall, everything at home is rushed to do everything with grandpa, ploughing the ground, climbing the soil, sowing, fertilizing, harvesting, chopping wood, carrying burdens, etc., and grandpa supports the life of the family together.
Even if he is 94 years old, the stove, tables, chairs and benches of my grandmother's house are all polished. The unpolished tables and chairs were polished by my grandmother and made them as smooth as if they had been polished.
Grandma has a good mentality, she is always happy, and she has never quarreled with grandpa. Don't care much about other people's business. Nor do they participate in other people's gossip. Whoever has red, white, and happy events will only know to help when they notify her at her house. Whose aunt is married, whose child is admitted to college, who buys a house or a car, it has nothing to do with her, she is not blushing, and she is not comparing.
Grandma has three sons and two daughters, whose children let her help, she helps pull a handful, so that the grandchildren can't be cold and hungry. I didn't say that the daughter-in-law was good or not, and she couldn't finish the vegetables she planted, so she said it and asked them to come and pull it out by themselves.
Grandma always said that children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, let them go and live their own little life, there is no way to worry about so many things.
Grandma's family has a peach grove, and she asks the villagers to fertilize and manage it, and in addition to opening it, she has an annual income of 20,000 yuan. can live on her own, and her children don't want her to give her money.
Grandma has a simple life and a low desire to consume. When the children buy new clothes and eat, they always say that they are enough, enough, but they can't finish eating, they can't use up, and they waste it.
The living habits of the elderly in our village are similar to those of the neighbors' grandmothers, eating lard, salted fish, pickled vegetables, smoking, drinking, and they do not pay attention to balanced nutrition, and never eat health products and nutritional products. is contrary to scientific health preservation, but can live a long life, I'm afraid even health experts can't say why.
How old are the long-lived elderly people around you? Do they take health supplements?
