I was born into an ordinary peasant family, and the family's struggling life has been with me for as long as I can remember. My grandfather and mother lived together for 40 years. Ever since I was a kid, they've been living a hard life and never complaining.
I still remember that gloomy winter day, my grandfather with gray hair, sitting in a rocking chair smoking a pipe, looking out the window in a daze. I tiptoed over and sat down beside him.
"Grandpa, what are you thinking?" I asked cautiously.
He turned his head and looked at me with those cloudy eyes, and a smile finally appeared on his face.
"Miss your mother. He said, his voice hoarse. "Your mother was a good boy from a young age and never let us worry about it. "
I nodded involuntarily. My mother was indeed a virtuous and industrious woman, who never complained about the poverty of the family and never asked for any luxuries. On the contrary, she always gave silently and did everything she could to maintain the family.
"Grandpa, how did you meet at that time?" I asked curiously.
Grandpa sighed, as if recalling the distant past. "That was before liberation, and your mother had just been born. I was doing odd jobs in the village at the time, and I met your grandmother, and she was very beautiful, and I fell in love with her. He paused and continued, "At that time, our family was not very wealthy, but I still wanted to marry your grandmother and return home. Your grandmother liked me too, and we got married. "
"And then?" I asked eagerly.
"Later, we had a hard time. Grandpa sighed, "There aren't many harvest years, and most of the time I can barely make ends meet." We lived a life of not having enough food and clothing, but we never gave up. "
"Grandpa, how did you get through it?" I couldn't help but ask.
Grandpa groaned for a while, and his eyes became deeper. "It was a difficult time, but as long as we stick together, we can overcome anything. After a pause, he continued, "Your grandmother is a very kind and hardworking person, and she always manages to save us some money. As for me, I did my best to find some odd jobs and earn some extra money. Sometimes it's so difficult that we have to eat some wild vegetables to satisfy our hunger. "
As I listened to my grandfather's words, I couldn't help but feel emotional. In my memory, they never complained to me about the poverty of the family, but always gave me a feeling of warmth and security.
Just as I was immersed in the memories, my mother pushed the door open and walked in. She looked tired, but she still had a kind smile on her face.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?" I asked hurriedly.
My mother came over and touched my hair. "Nothing, just a little tired. She said, turning her head to look at her grandfather, "Dad, what are you talking to the child?"
My grandfather looked up at his mother, his eyes full of love. "I'm telling him how we struggled to get through. "
Mother nodded softly and sat down next to her grandfather. She looked at me with a slight moistness in her eyes. "Kid, do you know that your grandfather and I have been fighting hard for this family. We never gave up, no matter how difficult it was. "
I nodded, feeling guilty. I've always known they're having a hard time, but I've never really experienced what they're going through.
"Mom, I'm sorry I haven't been able to thank you properly. I lowered my head, my voice choked up.
My mother reached out and hugged me, patting me gently on the back. "Kid, you don't need to apologize. We do all this for you, in order to give you a good living environment. "
Suddenly, the foreign minister said openly: "Child, do you know that when your grandmother died, she left us two oceans. "
I looked up at my grandfather, a little confused. "Two oceans, that's a lot of money!"
Grandpa nodded, "Yes, your grandmother said at the time that it was left for you." She hopes that this money will help you in the future. "
When I heard this, I felt a warm feeling in my heart. It turned out that in my seemingly poor childhood, my grandfather and mother were always working hard for our future.
"Grandpa, have you kept those two oceans?" I asked curiously.
"Keep it. Grandpa said, "We've been saving it and we'll give it to you when you're older." "
I felt some moistness in my eyes. The selfless dedication of my grandfather and mother made me feel extremely admired and moved.
"Grandpa, those two oceans, I will make good use of them, so that your and your mother's efforts are not in vain. I said solemnly.
Grandpa smiled kindly, "I know you will, kid." "
After listening to the story of my grandfather and mother, I felt an indescribable emotion in my heart. They have been living hard all these years and have never complained to us. On the contrary, they have been doing their best to maintain this home so that we can grow up in good health.
I can't help but think of those childhood memories. I remember when I was a child, our house was always crowded. My younger siblings and I were crammed into a small bedroom, and we had to eat with my grandfather and mother every day. Even so, we never felt what was lacking. On the contrary, that feeling of intimacy makes our family extra warm.
Despite the hardships of life, my grandfather and mother never gave up. I remember one winter, when we ran out of coal, they managed to keep us warm. It was very cold that winter, but my grandfather and mother always silently added firewood to us, for fear that we would catch a cold. Sometimes, we couldn't even get a full meal, but they always managed to get us some simple food.
"Child, you don't know how lucky you are. Mother said softly, with a twinkle in her eyes, "Your grandfather and I have been working hard for you, just hoping that you can have a good future." "
I nodded, feeling a warm current welling up in my heart. I realized that my parents gave far more than I could have imagined. They have been silently shouldering the burden of our family and using their all to maintain this family.
"Mom, I know you've made too many sacrifices for us. I said sadly, "I will definitely cherish your efforts and make your efforts not in vain." "
My mother hugged me softly, her eyes shining with relief. "Child, as long as you are healthy and happy, your grandfather and I will be satisfied. "
At this moment, my grandfather suddenly said, "Son, do you remember the two oceans that your grandmother left us?"
I nodded, "Yes, Grandpa." You've been keeping them all the time. "
Grandpa pondered for a while and said, "Child, before her death, your grandmother kept telling me to transfer these two oceans to you. She hopes that this money will help you in the future. "
I was stunned, I couldn't believe that my grandfather was going to give me this money. These two oceans are undoubtedly a huge amount of money for our family.
"Grandpa, how can this work?" I hurriedly said, "This is what Grandma left for you, you should use it yourself." "
Grandpa shook his head, "Son, your grandmother has always hoped that this money can help you. Your mother and I, we've been working hard for this family all our lives, and now it's time to enjoy it. "
The mother nodded, "Yes, child." Your grandma wants this money to be the foundation for your future development. We all hope that you can make good use of it and live a happy and fulfilling life. "
Hearing their words, I felt my eyes moisten a little. These two oceans carry the hard work of my grandfather and mother for decades. And now they are going to transfer them to me, which is undoubtedly a most precious legacy.
"Grandpa, Mom, I will cherish this inheritance. I said solemnly, "I will definitely use it to realize my ideals, so that your efforts are not in vain." "
My grandfather and mother looked at each other and smiled, both with a look of relief on their faces. "Son, as long as you can be happy, we are satisfied. Mother said softly.
At this moment, my grandfather suddenly coughed. I hurriedly went over to help him, but found that his breathing was getting shorter and shorter. The mother also hurriedly stepped forward to check the situation, looking worried.
"Dad, what's wrong with you?" Mother asked anxiously.
Grandpa opened his eyes weakly and looked at us. "Kid, Mom, I'm sorry, I might be leaving you. He said with difficulty.
When we heard this, my mother and I were stunned. I held my grandfather's hand tightly, and tears welled up in my eyes.
"Grandpa, you must hold on!" I choked up and said, "We still need you!"
Grandpa smiled weakly, "Child, you have to remember that I will always love you wherever I am. "
After speaking, he slowly closed his eyes. My mother and I burst into tears and collapsed to the ground, mourning for the man we will remember for the rest of our lives.
After the death of my grandfather, my mother and I were in a state of grief. We recalled the bits and pieces of my grandfather over and over again, and lamented the hardships of his life.
After my grandfather passed away that day, my mother, with trembling hands, took out two oceans from my grandfather's pocket. She clenched it tightly in her palm, and tears flowed uncontrollably.
"Son, your grandfather has been keeping these two dollars, and he said that it was your grandmother's deathbed confession. The mother choked up and said, "He hopes that this money will help you in the future." "
Hearing this, my heart instantly tightened. My grandfather and mother's life savings were all used to maintain the family. And now, they are going to leave me the last legacy.
"Mom, what's going to work?" I hurriedly said, "This money is something you have saved all your hard life, and it should be used by you." "
The mother shook her head slightly, "Child, your grandfather said that this was left to you by your grandmother." She hopes this will be the foundation for your future development. "
I looked at my mother's sad eyes, and my heart was mixed. The sacrifice of my grandfather and grandmother made me feel gratified, but at the same time I felt guilty. They have been quietly giving for their families, and I have never really appreciated their hardships.
"Mom, I will definitely make good use of these two dollars, so that your efforts are not in vain. I said solemnly.
The mother nodded, a look of relief. "Child, your grandfather has always wanted you to live a happy life. I know you'll be able to do it. "
As she spoke, she handed me two pieces of ocean. I took it carefully, feeling the weight. It's not just a sum of money, it's the brainchild of my grandfather and grandmother's life.
That's when a question suddenly came to mind. "Mom, what should we do with my grandfather's funeral?"
The mother sighed, "Son, your grandfather has always been a real person. He had instructed that if he went first, he would be buried under an old tree in the village. It was his favorite place. "
I nodded, "Okay, Mom." We did what my grandfather told us. "
In the days that followed, we were busy preparing for my grandfather's funeral. Relatives and friends from the village came to our house to see off this kind old man. When we put the police under the old tree, I couldn't help but burst into tears. This man who has raised us for three generations can finally rest in peace.
After the funeral, my mother and I sat in rocking chairs in front of the door, quietly reminiscing about my grandfather.
"Mom, how did you say that grandpa and grandma met back then?" I asked curiously.
Mother smiled and said, "That was before the liberation, when your grandfather was doing odd jobs in the village and met your grandmother. Your grandmother is very beautiful, and your grandfather fell in love at first sight. "
"And then?" I asked.
Later, they were married. Mother said, "At that time, our family was not very wealthy, but your grandfather still wanted to marry your grandmother." Your grandmother also liked your grandfather, so she married him. "
When I heard this, I couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion. The love between grandpa and grandma has crossed the boundary between rich and poor, and it has persisted for more than 40 years. This kind of pure and persistent love makes me sincerely admire.
"Mom, how did you maintain this family at that time?" I continued.
The mother sighed, "It was a really difficult time. Most of the time we are barely able to make ends meet, and sometimes we don't even have a full meal. However, your grandfather and I never gave up. "
"We worked together and encouraged each other to get through it. The mother said, "Your grandfather was always looking for odd jobs to make money, and I did my best to save money." Sometimes it's so difficult that we have to eat some wild vegetables to satisfy our hunger. "
"Mom, how did you hold on?" I couldn't help but ask.
Mother smiled softly, "Because we have each other." As long as we stick together, we can overcome anything. "
She paused and continued, "Child, your grandfather and I have been fighting hard for this family. We never gave up, no matter how difficult it was. Now, we can finally rest in peace. "
Hearing this, my eyes moistened again. I am deeply admired for the selfless dedication of my grandfather and mother. I will definitely cherish this inheritance and let their efforts not be in vain.
