China has a very long history, during the Agricultural Revolution, China also experienced a great famine, which took the lives of many people, although some people survived, but they still did not have enough to eat. However, this famine has also made many people develop the habit of thrift, for these people, money must be spent on the edge, and it must not be spent until the last resort.
Diligence and thrift are the traditional virtues of China, but after the reform and opening up, people's living standards have gradually improved, and more and more people pay more attention to the satisfaction brought by materials, especially the new generation of young people, but there are still some elderly people who still maintain the habit of thrifting, Wang Tiancai is one of them.
Born in poverty, he can't solve the problem of food and clothing
The old man's values have never been changed by the impetuosity of the current society, she only eats some pickles for three meals a day, even if she is sick, she is not willing to go to the hospital to spend money on treatment, and she saves money all her life in order to be able to save some money, and later after the old man died, the villagers found that she had a lot of cash at home, and finally found 6 people to clean up for more than three hours, only to find that the old man had left a legacy of hundreds of thousands, in the face of this number, everyone was particularly surprised.
originally thought that she was a poor old man, so she lived like that, but she never expected that she would be a rich old lady, and many people couldn't figure out why she had a huge sum of money and lived so shabby every day. It turned out that Wang Tiancai was born in a war-torn era, and her ancestors were all farmers for generations, so her arrival not only did not bring happiness to the family, but became a burden to the family.
After she was born, the family became more scarce of food and clothing, but fortunately, her parents insisted on working in the fields every day, which allowed the family to barely solve the problem of food and clothing. In order to reduce the burden on his parents, Wang Tiancai began to work in the fields at a very young age. In addition to doing some farm work, she was also responsible for her parents' three meals a day, which lasted for many years, until Wang Tiancai met her husband, and with his help, the family was relieved from this life.
Loved ones have passed away one after another
After getting married, her husband loved her very much, because her husband needed to go out often because of his work, and they often couldn't see each other for a long time. Wang Tiancai was very grateful to see her husband do all this, although they often couldn't see each other, but it didn't affect the relationship between them at all, and not long after they got married, they conceived a child. Originally, the family was supposed to spend the rest of their lives sweetly, but they didn't expect Wang Tiancai's daughter to die due to some diseases when she was a child.
The child left this world like this, and the family couldn't slow down, so they finally slowly accepted this reality, but they didn't expect her husband to pass away. Seeing his loved ones leave him one by one, Wang Tiancai doesn't know what to do next, although life has lost all meaning, he still has to live.
For a long time, Wang Tiancai almost didn't sleep every night, and when she lay in bed, she couldn't restrain her tears, as long as she fell asleep, she would frequently think of her husband and daughter. Many neighbors knew what happened to her, and would come over every day to comfort her and accompany her, and when others were around, she always made a happy appearance, and no one could see her sadness at all, and when these people left, she would fall into endless sadness.
He has been widowed for many years for true love and lives in poverty
After her husband died, she left her a sum of money, hoping that she could live well with the money, but every time Wang Tiancai thought of her husband's hard work in making money, she was reluctant to spend a penny. I am reluctant to change my clothes all year round, and I only choose some of the cheapest food to solve my food and clothing every day, and my family is even more destitute, there is not even a table, chair and bench, and she is only covered with a thin quilt in the winter in the north.
The old man is getting older day by day, and the food she usually eats has no nutrients, so that her body functions begin to gradually deteriorate, and her body often has some minor problems. Every time I get sick, I can't even take medicine, so I think I can carry it myself, but the more I resist the disease, the more serious it is.
Many people advised her to go to the local big hospital for a check-up, so that she could rest assured, but every time she thought about the high cost of treatment to go to the hospital, she gave up. Many people feel that even if they don't go to the hospital, at least they should eat some good things to make up for their bodies during their illness, but the old man is still the same as usual, and every time he can't bear to see her so pitiful, he sends her some food.
After many years of such days, the money was saved, but the old man's body could no longer bear it, and he passed away after being bedridden for a while. After many well-wishers in the village learned of her death, they raised funds and held a funeral for her.
When the villagers were tidying up the old man's room, they found a lot of cash at home, and they asked someone to come over and count it for several hours, which was more than 100,000 yuan. The old lady has never enjoyed a few days of happiness in her life, saving money and saving money, and the money has not been spent, in exchange for such a result.
Many people feel particularly incomprehensible, she lives in this world, helpless, childless, but willing to live such a life, and now she has saved so much money, but she can't take away a penny, and some people feel that if she can take out some money to treat the disease, she must be able to live for a few more years, instead of such a result.
In today's society, I believe that many people can't understand the old lady's approach, but for this old man, she has already deeply imprinted thrift in her bone marrow, and there are many old people like her, and this spirit flows in their blood.
As a new generation of young people, we should be filial to and repay our parents during their lifetimes, because they have worked hard for their children all their lives and deserve to be respected and loved by their children. Some of their good qualities are worth inheriting and learning from.
