I remember Zhejiang or somewhere else.
There was a college student who went to college on his mother’s back. Very touching.
I found a report for the original poster.
Mom, you must live. As long as you live, I can persevere! "Liu Ting is a college student at Zhejiang Forestry University. He is 19 years old this year. He originally had a happy family: his father was a worker and his mother was a tailor. He had excellent grades since he was a child. However, six years ago, his mother suffered from uremia. In order to To treat my mother, the family not only used up all their savings, but also sold the house. The overwhelmed father ran away from home, and the happy family of three suddenly became a mother and son dependent on each other.
This year 9. In the past month, Liu Ting, who was studying hard while taking care of his mother, was admitted to Zhejiang Forestry University with a college entrance examination score that exceeded the key line. In order to attend school and take care of his mother at the same time, the 19-year-old had to carry his mother to college on his back and rely on his money every month. Living a difficult life with a 50 yuan subsidy from a work-study program at school. Recently, a reporter from the New Paper came to Zhejiang Forestry University and got close to this college student who earned 50 yuan from working in the school cafeteria. >Cooking, applying medicine, renting a room to serve the sick mother
At 6 pm on November 17, Liu Ting was busy serving soup to the students in the student cafeteria of Zhejiang Forestry University. It was the time for the students to have dinner. During the peak period, there is an endless stream of students. When he sees his classmates, he will say hello, and then he will look sullen again. Liu Ting has to work in the student cafeteria after school every day. His task is to serve soup. , helping the masters clean the canteen. In addition to three free meals a day, Liu Ting and the masters will receive a monthly salary of 50 yuan. At that time, it was already 7:15 in the evening, and Liu Ting hurried back to his "home" with a box of vegetables - in a rental house outside the school, where his mother, who was suffering from uremia, was still waiting for him to cook and apply medicine.
Under the streetlight, Liu Ting walked hurriedly. He wore a pair of dark glasses and a school uniform. His face was delicate and shy. At first glance, he looked like a girl who might be too tired and sad. This 19-year-old. The boy was too thin and weak. It was hard to imagine that such a child could support his mother.
When Liu Ting hurried to the school gate, he was surprised by the scene in front of him: his mother was standing there. Across the road from the school gate, she was wearing a cotton coat and a pair of cotton shoes. Her hair was messy, her face was haggard, and her body was weak. She looked towards the school gate from time to time. When she saw her son coming back, a smile appeared on her face. .
"Mom, why did you run out alone? The condition will get worse. "Liu Ting complained a little.
"I'm worried that you won't come back so late! "The mother whispered.
Since she didn't see her son come home very late, the mother was worried and "moved step by step" to the school gate to wait for him. Liu Ting is an officer of the school student union and also serves as the school's president. Reporter from the Youth League Committee News Center. Today, after Liu Ting worked as a work-study student in the student cafeteria, he went to the school student union to get some materials. He came home half an hour late. His mother was worried and went to the school gate to wait. < /p>
Liu Ting carried his mother on his back and walked step by step to the rental house on the fourth floor.
“Son, I will drag you down if this continues. "My mother was choking on Liu Ting's back.
"Mom, you must live. As long as you live, I can persevere!" Liu Ting burst into tears when he said this. Seeing his son crying, his mother couldn't help crying.
The house Liu Ting and her son rent is in an alley near the school. The rental house is only across a road from the school and about 100 meters from the school gate. Following a dark, damp corridor filled with debris, the reporter followed to the fourth floor.
A suite of nearly 80 square meters and four rooms are rented to four families respectively. Liu Ting took out the key and opened a house. A strong smell of medicine hit his face. Liu Ting gently put his mother on the bed and covered her with a quilt. When her mood stabilized, he immediately cleaned the pot and cooked for her mother. Cook porridge.
Liu Ting works in the school cafeteria
There is a small wire bed, two quilts, and a small desk with a pile of books and books borrowed from the school library. Some medicines. In the corner of the room, the rice cooker was sizzling white steam, filling the entire room. In fact, this room of more than 10 square meters still looks empty. Twenty minutes later, Liu Ting fed his mother a bowl of porridge, and after taking her blood pressure, Liu Ting rushed back to study in the evening with her schoolbag on her back...
Two people eat the same meal. Sleeping in the same bed
Being "half a doctor" by taking injections to measure blood pressure
"Liu Ting comes back very late every day, and sometimes his mother will go out to wait for him when she is in a hurry. We often advise her not to go out when she is sick, but she always refuses to listen. We often see Liu Ting carrying his mother up and down the stairs with a schoolbag in his hand, and he is sweating profusely every time. She's still a child! It's really hard for these two women..." said Sister Wang, who lives across the street.
For Liu Ting, his life is tense and busy every day. His heavy study pressure, his mother's three meals a day, and expensive medical bills... all of this is placed on him alone. . And all these are not well understood by others.
Liu Ting’s mother told reporters that Liu Ting spent his day like this: he got up at 6:30 in the morning, washed up, cooked a bowl of rice porridge for his mother for breakfast, and took his mother’s blood pressure. Go to morning self-study at 7:00, mainly reading English and previewing the day’s homework. After the second class, I rushed home to take my mother’s blood pressure and soaked the rice. Then go to class or go to the library.
After a day of classes, Liu Ting would hurry back home, tidy up the housework and wash clothes. After finishing everything, he would go back to the school cafeteria to work as a work-study student. Sometimes he was too busy, so he would divide his meal into two portions - half to eat himself and the other half to take back to his mother. As soon as the bell rang for the evening self-study, he hurried back to the rental house, where his mother, who suffered from uremia and lost the ability to work and take care of herself, was waiting for him to apply medicine and give injections.
At night, Liu Ting and her mother slept on the same wire bed. Her mother slept on one end and he slept on the other end. Liu Ting said that he could take better care of her by lying on the same bed with his mother. "Mother's blood pressure must be measured at least three times a day, once in the morning, noon, and evening. Sometimes when she feels unwell, she can measure her blood pressure and give her injections and medicines as soon as she gets up. If she sleeps alone, her mother will fall ill at night. , I am still in a daze."
This summer, Liu Ting took his mother to a kidney hospital in Weifang, Shandong for 10 days of treatment. He spent the remaining 40,000 yuan from selling the house, and now his condition has been initially improved. Control, according to the doctor's requirements, Liu Ting's mother must be hospitalized to have any hope of recovery. However, except for the 50 yuan monthly income from work-study, Liu Ting and her mother had no income and could not afford the expensive hospitalization expenses.
Now Liu Ting’s mother is being treated at home. With the help of the doctor, Liu Ting learned to use electrotherapy equipment and learned to give her mother injections and measure her blood pressure. Now he has to give his mother injections, take medicine and measure her blood pressure on time every day. Liu Ting's mother told reporters that Liu Ting is already "half a doctor."
Filial piety is the foundation of life
There are three sons. When their father passed away, they rushed home, but not to take care of the funeral, but to rummage through the boxes and cabinets to see what they were doing. Did your father leave anything valuable? One of the sons found 3,000 yuan in cash and wanted to run away. His mother stepped forward to stop him and said that the only money he had was for his father's burial. Little did he know that the son only had two words, so he left even faster. The other two sons also heard about it and chased them out without a trace.
The poor old mother managed to bury her husband with the help of the street office and relatives.
These three sons ignored family affection and filial piety, and their behavior was contrary to family virtues. They simply reached the level of shamelessness and are truly despised by the world. Why does this kind of loss of human ethics still occur in our current atmosphere of strong civility and politeness? I think it's selfishness. Later, I heard that these three sons would pool their money to buy little golden pigs every Qingming Festival, and would go to their father's grave with their wives and children to worship. One prayed for promotion and wealth, and the other prayed for a prosperous business. You see, he was not filial during his lifetime, but still expected his father's spirit in heaven to bless him after his death. This is really selfish to the extreme, and it makes people sigh.
Filial piety to our elders is a traditional virtue of our Chinese nation. In the thousands of years of history of our motherland, filial piety is a beautiful wave that has watered the prosperity of the Chinese nation. The beauty of filial piety is a good thing. They are endless and countless. Let’s not talk about the distant ones, let’s just talk about our modern General Xu Shiyou. He went through hundreds of battles, fought hard for the establishment of New China, made great contributions, and became a powerful senior general. However, there is an eternal pain engraved in his heart, that is, for the needs of the revolution, he left his mother behind He could not fulfill his filial piety at the foot of the Dabie Mountains. Although he took his mother to his side for a while, his mother could not get used to living in a big city and soon returned to her hometown. Xu Shiyou, who was straightforward and full of filial piety, privately made a request to Chairman Mao Zedong to be loyal during his lifetime and to be filial after his death. That is, he would not be cremated after death and be buried next to his mother's grave to fulfill his filial piety. Chairman Mao, who was in his prime, laughed at Xu Shiyou, who was also in his prime.
After Xu Shiyou passed away in 1985, Comrade Deng Xiaoping personally issued a special pass, fulfilling General Xu Shiyou's wish to be laid to rest beside his mother's grave as a filial piety. General Xu Shiyou is truly a typical example of great loyalty and filial piety.
It can be said that filial people may not be perfect, but unfilial people will never be perfect, and their behavior will not be much better. When dealing with others, filial piety is the foundation. People! Be less selfish and more filial! Only in this way can civilization be brought closer to us.
