I am Uncle Wang, and I am seventy and four this year, which is the late autumn of my life. My wife's name is Aunt Wang, and the two of us are children from a neighboring village, growing up together, and it is not an exaggeration to say that we are childhood sweethearts. In our life, from acquaintance to acquaintance, to love, and finally to becoming husband and wife, along the way, there were laughter and tears, but in the end, we still came together hand in hand.
How many years ago was that? I can't even count. When we were young, I was a young and vigorous young man, and Aunt Wang was also a flexible and clever girl. Our meeting was like fate, and at that time, we only had a beautiful vision for the future and a deep love for each other.
When we were young, we worked hard all our lives for life and dreams. Finally, as we enter retirement age, it's time to enjoy the fruits of our hard work. We both received a pension that was not very high, but it was enough for us to live a relatively comfortable life. What's more, we still have savings on hand, a full 600,000! It's something we've worked so hard to save over the years, and it's the security we've always dreamed of.
"Wife, you see, after so many years of hard work, we can finally enjoy our old age in peace." I whispered, holding the deposit slip from the savings bank in my hand, filled with satisfaction.
"Yes, uncle, these years have not been easy." Aunt Wang's eyes flashed with emotion, "The money we saved is so that we can enjoy life in the future and see our great rivers and mountains." ”
There was anticipation in both of our eyes. We have set a small goal, that is, to use this savings to travel all over the great rivers and mountains of our motherland. Every mountain and every river is a witness to our beautiful life. We want to spend the rest of our limited lives witnessing the magnificence and vastness of this land.
"Wife, where are we going first this time?" I asked with a smile.
"Let's go to Huangshan, that's the place we've always dreamed of." Aunt Wang's eyes flashed with excitement, "I heard that the sunrise in Huangshan is very spectacular, we must go and see it." ”
"Okay, then let's go to Huangshan." I nodded yes, "Let's go, let's start planning our journey!" ”
The two of us sat on the couch arm in arm, flipping through the brochure and excitedly discussing the itinerary. This trip is not only a simple vacation for us, but also a reward for our hard work over the years. We look forward to this journey to leave us with wonderful memories and make the rest of our lives more fulfilling and exciting.
After planning our trip to Huangshan with great interest, we began our journey. Taking the train, we came to the foot of the Yellow Mountain, and the scenery in front of us made us feel refreshed.
"Wow, the scenery is so beautiful!" Aunt Wang exclaimed excitedly, her eyes shining with joy.
"Yes, Huangshan really deserves its name." I couldn't help but exclaim, "We're here, we have to enjoy every moment." ”
We started our trekking journey to the top of the Yellow Mountain, step by step. Although the road was difficult, when we stood on the top of the mountain and greeted the first rays of sunshine, our hearts were full of satisfaction and joy.
"Wife, look, sunrise!" I pointed to the east in the distance and said excitedly.
Aunt Wang held my hand tightly, her eyes full of emotion, "Yes, this is the scene we have always dreamed of." ”
We stood quietly on the top of the hill and enjoyed the beauty of this moment. The sun slowly rises and shines on the entire mountaintop, and everything seems to be so beautiful and peaceful.
The trip to Huangshan gave us good memories, but it also made us start thinking more. As we walked through the mountains, we began to talk about our future, our lives.
"Uncle, what do you think we should do in the future?" Aunt Wang asked worriedly, "How should we use the money we have saved over the years to make our lives better?" ”
I was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke, "Wife, I've actually been thinking about this a lot. Although our pension is sufficient every month, these savings are always limited and we cannot rely on them all the time. We should think about how we can make this money work better. ”
"But, uncle, what else can we do at such an age?" Aunt Wang said with some hesitation, "Our health is not as good as before, and it is not realistic to go to work again." ”
I gently patted her on the shoulder, "Wife, I didn't mean to ask us to go to work. I mean, there are some other ways we can think of ways to make this money more valuable. For example, we can invest some of our money in stocks, funds, or real estate. ”
"Investment?" Aunt Wang looked at me with some confusion, "Isn't that very risky?" We can't put all the money we've worked so hard to save in. ”
"I know, wife, I'm not saying we're going to put all the money into it." I patiently explained, "We can start with a small part, learn slowly, and explore slowly." As long as we exercise caution and choose a prudent investment approach, I believe we will be able to achieve good returns. ”
Aunt Wang was silent for a moment, then nodded, "Okay, since you say so, then let's give it a try." Be careful, though, and don't take too many risks. ”
I smiled, "Don't worry, wife, I'll handle it carefully." In this life, although the road we have traveled is tortuous, we have always walked hand in hand. Now, we also have to hold each other's hands tightly and face the future together. ”
We decided to invest some of our savings in the stock market. Every night, we would sit together in front of the computer, follow the stock movements, and study the market movements. Although there are fluctuations at times, we are confident that the future will be better.
Although the trip to Huangshan is over, our longing and expectation for the future are getting stronger and stronger. We are no longer satisfied with a comfortable life, but are more actively pursuing a better life. We know that as long as we hold hands and work together, all difficulties will be solved.
We've gained a little bit more experience in investing, and although we had some setbacks at first, we were always able to encourage each other to overcome the difficulties together. Gradually, we began to see a slight return on our investment, which strengthened our confidence in the future.
"Wife, our investment has gained some money this month!" I said to Aunt Wang with a smile, holding the latest investment report in my hand.
"Really? That's great! Aunt Wang said excitedly, "It seems that our efforts have not been in vain. ”
"Yes, we have to continue to keep it up, and I believe that the future will be better!" I said encouragingly.
Although the investment is starting to pay off slightly, we are also well aware of the risks involved, so we have not stopped. We continue to learn, continue to study the market, and constantly adjust our investment strategy to make our investments more stable.
In addition to investment, our lives have gradually returned to the comfort and comfort of the past. Every morning, we would walk around the neighborhood together, enjoying the fresh air and the warm sunshine. In the evenings, we would cook together, watch TV together, and enjoy a simple and warm time.
"Uncle, what do you say is the biggest gain in our lives?" Aunt Wang suddenly asked.
I stopped what I was doing and thought for a while, "I think the biggest thing we have gained is the company of each other." With you by my side, I feel that this life is already happy enough. ”
Aunt Wang smiled, "Yes, with your company, I think no matter what difficulties I encounter, I can face them bravely." ”
We looked at each other and smiled, our eyes full of gratitude and cherishing for each other. Although the years have left traces on our faces, our hearts are still young and still full of love and longing for life.
Before we know it, a few years have passed in our retirement. Thanks to our efforts, our investments have gradually become more stable and our lives have become more and more affluent. However, just when we thought everything was settled, an accident turned our lives upside down.
It was a normal afternoon, and Aunt Wang and I were about to go to the nearby vegetable market to buy some daily necessities. When I walked to the entrance of the community, I suddenly felt my feet slip and I fell to the ground.
"Uncle, are you alright?" Aunt Wang anxiously ran over and helped me up.
I shook my head and smiled reluctantly, "It's okay, maybe the road is a little slippery." ”
Aunt Wang kept holding my hand tightly, for fear that I would fall again. We slowly walked to the wet market, but my legs felt more and more uncomfortable.
"Uncle, what's wrong with your leg? It looks uncomfortable. Aunt Wang asked worriedly.
I looked down and saw that my legs were a little swollen and I had a hard time walking. "It may have been a minor injury when I fell, but it was not a big deal." I try to make myself sound relaxed, "Just take a walk." ”
However, it's not that simple. When I got home, my leg was getting more and more painful and I could barely walk. Seeing that I was in pain, Aunt Wang hurriedly went to a neighbor for help and took me to a nearby hospital.
After the doctor's examination, he said to us with a solemn face: "Uncle Wang, your leg is broken and needs surgery." ”
"Broken bones?!" Aunt Wang and I exclaimed almost at the same time.
"Yes, surgery needs to be done as soon as possible, otherwise it will affect your recovery in the future." The doctor said solemnly.
Aunt Wang and I looked at each other, our hearts full of worry and fear. I'm in my 70s, and the recovery time and results of the surgery again are unpredictable, which is a huge challenge for us.
"Uncle, listen to the doctor, let's do surgery as soon as possible." Aunt Wang held my hand tightly, "I will always be by your side." ”
I patted her hand lightly and said with a smile: "Don't worry, with you by my side, I won't be afraid of anything." ”
The surgery went well, but the post-operative recovery turned out to be much more difficult than expected. My leg needs a long period of rehabilitation and physiotherapy, and this is a huge test for me, who is already over the age of six.
Under the careful care of Aunt Wang, my injuries gradually improved, but my mood has not been able to calm down. I began to worry about our future, whether I would be able to take care of Aunt Wang as well as before, and whether our lives would be as happy as before.
"Uncle, don't worry, we will definitely be able to get through this difficulty." Aunt Wang held my hand tightly and comforted, "As long as we work together and support each other, everything will be fine." ”
I smiled, and a warm current gradually surged in my heart, this woman is the greatest happiness in my life. "Yes, wife, with you by my side, I believe we will be able to overcome everything."
We went through a long recovery period together and my leg gradually returned to normal function. Although it is still a little difficult to walk now, I know that as long as Aunt Wang is by my side, I have the motivation to move forward. Our lives are back on track, and our vision and anticipation for the future have made us more determined to move forward.
After a difficult recovery period, Aunt Wang and I finally returned to our normal rhythm of life. Although my leg is not fully healed, I can walk on my own, which is very gratifying for all of us.
"Wife, look, my legs can walk again!" I said excitedly to Aunt Wang as I trotted in the living room to show off the results of my recovery.
Aunt Wang smiled from ear to ear, "It's really good, uncle, it seems that our efforts have not been in vain." ”
I smiled and nodded, "Yes, with your support and encouragement, I feel like I'm a tumbler who can overcome any difficulties tenaciously." ”
Aunt Wang coquettishly said: "Of course, you are the bravest and strongest man in my mind. ”
Our lives have returned to their former peace and warmth. Every morning, we still walk together in the community, enjoying the fresh air and warm sunshine. In the evenings, we would cook together, watch TV together, and have a great time.
However, just when we thought everything was back on track, a letter brought new twists and turns in our lives.
"Wife, what do you think this is?" Aunt Wang took a letter and asked with a frown.
I took the letter and read it carefully, frowning. "It's a letter from the bank, and it seems to say that something is wrong with our investment."
Aunt Wang also became anxious after hearing this, "Could it be that our investment is losing?" ”
I shook my head, "I don't know, let's go to the bank and ask." ”
We hurried to the bank and asked the bank staff about the issues mentioned in the letter. After some investigation, we learned that one of the stocks we had invested in had recently fallen sharply, resulting in a significant loss of a large part of our investment.
"It's... What can I do? Aunt Wang asked a little flustered, "Then won't all the money we worked so hard to save before be lost?" ”
I was also anxious, "Looks like we're going to have to re-evaluate our investment strategy." We can't let that happen again. ”
Aunt Wang nodded, "Yes, we have to think of a way not to let our money go down the drain." ”
We decided to take a break from investing and take a good look at our current asset situation and replan our future. Despite the difficulties we faced, we did not give up and believed that as long as we worked together, we would be able to overcome the difficulties ahead.
"Wife, no matter what difficulties we encounter, as long as we work together, we will be able to overcome everything." I held Aunt Wang's hand and said solemnly.
Aunt Wang smiled slightly, "Yes, as long as we are together, there is nothing that cannot be solved." ”
We are determined to start afresh and reimagine our future. Although the road ahead is full of unknowns and challenges, we believe that as long as we support and encourage each other, we will be able to meet all that will be in the future. Although our life is full of ups and downs, it is also full of warmth and hope. Along the way, whether it is laughter or tears, we will always hold hands and spend it together.
