Later, after watching the movie, I went to find an e-book to read.
The story tells the story of a little boy named Deyong who was fostered in his grandmother's house after World War II.
At first, Deyong felt that he was poor in Saga, even poorer than in Hiroshima. I guess he's still a little sick. After all, Hiroshima is also a big city. In Saga, he lives in a thatched cottage by the river. When he first arrived there, his grandmother didn't greet him and showed great enthusiasm. She took him directly to the kitchen and taught him to make a fire and cook. But later, after contact with grandma, I felt that grandma was his mother in Saga.
Grandma is a considerate person. She was born in 1900 and lived for over 90 years. It is estimated that her longevity is also related to her attitude towards things.
After her husband died, she raised seven children by herself, and when she was old, she came to raise her daughter's son. Although fate played a trick on her, she did not compromise. On the contrary, she did several jobs by herself during the hard times. She works as a cleaner in several schools. Every day after work, she ties a magnet to herself so that she can suck metal while walking and then sell it. This way was once the favorite activity of Deyong's friends. She chose her own way and worked hard for her goals.
The family was poor, so she couldn't afford to buy vegetables, so she put bamboo poles in the river next to her home, and then intercepted the vegetables that the upstream vegetable market didn't want. She said that those small and ugly vegetables tasted the same as those sold, so gradually Deyong followed her to help in this "supermarket", and sometimes she met complete and fresh vegetables. During the Orchid Festival (similar to Tomb-Sweeping Day in China), there will be tributes floating down.
Deyong wants to learn fencing and judo, but he has no money. She recommends him to run. Later, he insisted that although other languages were not very good, he got full marks in sports and won prizes in the school sports meeting. In the marathon organized by the school, he broke the school record and set a new record, and was also recommended to a public school.
Whether it is a movie or a novel, I see my mother's shadow.
Although my mother is not as powerful as my grandmother, and she has raised seven people by herself, the bright spots on her body have been kept quite well up to now.
1. Have your own hobbies.
My mother likes singing and dancing. Although singing is not so good, her figure is not so perfect, even a little fat, but she has been dancing since the square dance. Until now, she has taken her grandson with her. When he goes to bed, she goes dancing again. She used to dance with others, and then she downloaded the APP from her mobile phone to find out which one she thought was beautiful. To this end, she bought a small TV, plugged in a USB flash drive and danced with her. I became a teacher myself.
Of course, it is also possible that because of the influence of art, there is no shadow of rural women from her.
2. Have a curious and learning heart.
My mother was a rural woman in the 1960s, but she was always curious about new things.
When I was in college, my brother bought a computer, and then she taught herself Excel, PPT, Word and so on (although I don't know how she is learning now), and then she ordered a penguin and explored for herself. As a result, one day I saw her message to me in the space:
Mom is great. Mom is not stupid, is she? Love you, baby
I'm glad my mother knows about it. Later, WeChat appeared, and she videos with me from time to time. Now it is less, because I have to bring my grandson.
However, she seems to be busy. Recently, she has to read the driving test questions every night. I sent a message to wechat, and she said she was reading the question, and I was embarrassed to continue to bother. Take care of grandchildren during the day, study at night, and then go to investigate. Take your grandson out to play in the future.
This is not a hot mom, this is a hot grandma.
3. Be optimistic and look on the bright side of things.
My mom said that talking to your dad feels bad for my whole life.
Why?
When my dad takes out a loan, he thinks, Ah, how much is it? How many years will it take? I gave all the money for my own work to others.
My mother thinks it's not bad to use tomorrow's money to round today's dream. As long as the money is returned to them, they will not die.
At work, I sometimes feel upset because of things at work, and I will complain to her.
She usually puts herself in my shoes and then analyzes what will happen if this happens, and then I won't be upset. After all, the road is step by step.
4. kindness.
My grandmother belongs to the kind of mother-in-law who treats her son well and her daughter-in-law badly in TV series, although my mother will be treated unfairly, such as not giving her delicious food and sharing good things with her. . . . . . She will take care of her and respect her.
Once, my grandmother was ill in hospital, and my aunt went to the hospital to see her, accompany her and take care of her, but she asked my mother by name, and all the money involved was through my mother's hand, because she knew my mother very well.
Step 5 be good at thinking
My mother is a hothead, so she does everything in a hurry. But she likes to think.
When I was a child, I never went out for breakfast when I got up in the morning, because my mother would boil the water every morning when she came. When the water in the middle was boiled, I would cook the noodles, and it would be fine after washing the noodles.
Because when I was young, my grandson liked to pester adults, but she had to cook, so in summer, when my nephew was a few months old, she would put the baby in a basin when picking vegetables, and then put it where he could see my mother, watching her do things, and then the baby stopped crying. On the contrary, she read it with relish.
I just talked to my roommate about my mother taking care of her grandchildren during the day and studying at night. She found it inspiring, and then she immediately went to do what she put off.
I hope I can get better and better under the influence of such a mother. Hey hey.
