Before you leave

<b>Wen | Zhang Suxia</b>

The other day, I bought a new book, and when I looked at it at home, my tears couldn't stop falling. Every story in the book is very real, very touching, simple and sincere, gentle and delicate. There is a sentence in the book that I am particularly impressed with, "How cruel fate is, life is still worth it." Our generation born after 50, how many ups and downs, now most of them have become parents, grandparents, time has passed in the blink of an eye, youth is no more, but for the years, we also hide how many words are hidden in the heart!

Before you leave

The book is called "Before You Leave," and there is a chapter in the book about the writer and his grandfather and grandmother. Seeing the author and grandma's affectionate relationship on weekdays, I also laughed and was happy together, and when I saw the author write about the scene of my grandmother's death, my tears were strung together like a rain curtain. I also think of my grandparents.

When I was a child, I lived with my grandparents and had a deep affection for them. In fact, the home of grandparents and parents was originally a family, and then life was slightly better, and Grandpa opened two doors, and the family was divided into two households. I have 6 brothers and sisters, I am the eldest in the family, and there are four younger sisters, one of whom is the younger brother. But my grandparents hurt me so much that I still feel very happy when I look back on it. In those hard days, their love laid the foundation for the happiness of my life.

When I was in elementary school, the school held group activities such as sports meetings, spring outings, and grave visits every year, which was the thing I was most looking forward to and happiest. At that time, life was very poor and difficult, and my grandparents could not even use a drop of oil on weekdays. But whenever I go to school for an event, my lunch box is always filled with all kinds of delicious food, sometimes bread and big red sausage, sometimes white noodle steamed buns and big red sausage. The big red sausage with a little white fat meat is the most delicious, a piece of intestine is an inch and a half long, every time I have to take a sniff on the nose for a long time before I am willing to eat a bite, that kind of taste, still let me unforgettable.

The author Xiao Nan also wrote in the book that his mother was hungry for meat when she was young, and it was difficult for the two families to save money to buy a piece of meat but accidentally fell in the snow and could not find it, and the scene of his mother sitting in the snow crying in a hurry, I saw that I had a relationship. It is rare that the author is young, and he can also understand the mood of our generation and the turbulence of life. People may not be able to understand it now, but people in that era were really too poor, and an inch and a half of red sausage was the living expenses of grandparents for a few days. The moment I opened the lunch box, the scent of the intestines wafted around, and my whole world was bathed in happiness. Today the living conditions are better, sausages can be bought anywhere at any time, but the taste is no longer the same, because in that smell, it is my grandparents who have poured all their love for me.

My grandparents are very ordinary Chinese, a lifetime of diligence, hard work, very traditional but unique style, their stories are enough for me to learn and remember for a lifetime. I miss my grandparents.

Regarding the topic of parting, children may feel that it is taboo to talk in front of us. But I actually see it very clearly. Life is a lifetime, grass and trees are autumn, and the laws of nature must be faced calmly. The book "Before You Leave" is written to parents from the perspective of children, and there is kindness, companionship, reconciliation, and parting. I think it's particularly good. There is no need for us to deliberately avoid the separation of life and death, but we must learn to cherish the people around us in ordinary days.

On weekdays to send our grandchildren to school, we often talk about some topics on the way, although he looks so small, but the children's world is often more extensive than we think. Once, I talked to him about "time", he didn't have any concept of time, one hour, two hours or even ten thousand years, he didn't really have a specific standard. I said, "Baby, ten thousand years is too long, only 365 days a year, and after ten thousand years, grandparents will go to heaven." He looked up at his small face and asked, "If you go to heaven, is it death?" I said, "Yes, Grandparents will be watching you from heaven." He asked again, "Did Grandpa become the sun and Grandma turn into the moon?" I listened to "hahaha" and laughed incessantly, and I replied to him seriously, "Yes, Grandma will always accompany you, bless you, and watch you grow up." He looked at me carefully, took my hand with a small hand, and said, "Grandma, why do I have tears when I say it", I looked at him, and the tears also poured out of my eyes, and we both cried. He took out a tissue and handed it to me, took another one for himself, wiped his tears and said, "Grandma is dead, will you leave your phone behind, can I still see your picture?" I cried and laughed, and I said yes. He came over and wiped the tears from the corners of my eyes, and asked uneasily, "Can you see it in ten thousand years?" ”

Who in this world can live for ten thousand years?

But my dearest relatives, no matter whether they live or die, I will always be by your side.
