Treasure Memories - My Grandmother

We were born with many relatives. As we grow older, many of them have left us forever. I believe that everyone, like me, will miss them very much.

My grandmother is a down-to-earth rural old lady. As far as I can remember, her eyes have been closed and she is almost out of sight. She often has to lean against the wall and lean on crutches when she walks . Every time we went to see her, she was very happy. Before leaving, she often walked to the door, waved to us, and watched us leave.

According to my mother, my grandmother's eyes were blinded by crying . My grandmother's two earliest children drowned and died prematurely, but my grandmother couldn't stand the blow. She cried for days without food or drink, and she couldn't open her eyes from crying. Since then, my eyesight has not been as good as a year, and I have been treated by someone, but the doctor said it is not good.

My grandmother was a miserable person. I still remember that one summer when I was in elementary school, my cousin suddenly came to report that my grandfather had passed away unexpectedly. Hearing the news, my mother cried very sadly. Our family of three hurried to my grandmother's house, and saw my grandmother sitting alone outside the house, wiping her eyes that were unable to cry a single tear, with a heavy heart.

Grandpa died unexpectedly, and grandma suddenly became a person. In addition, she was inconvenient to move. After everyone discussed it, the third uncle took care of him. We will go to the third uncle's house to visit her after the New Year and the festival. When my grandmother arrived at the third uncle's house, she did not want to rely too much on the care of the third uncle and third aunt, and insisted on cooking and washing by herself. Uncle San couldn't beat her, so he built a small kitchen next to his house and let her take care of her own life.

It went on like this for a few years in a row. Every time I go to see my grandmother, my grandmother's mental state is very good. Sometimes, they would call me to my room secretly and give me some money. I know it's not easy for her. The money is all the living expenses given by my uncles. How can I ask for it? Every time I ask my grandmother to take it back and collect it.

But the good times didn't last long. I heard from my mother that my grandmother accidentally fell down while cooking and broke her thigh. She was resting in bed. During this period, our whole family went to visit my grandmother once, but I didn't expect that that time would be the last time I saw her.

I remember that time I met my grandmother, I chatted with her, she answered fluently, her mind was very clear, and from time to time she instructed me to do this and that, feeling that my grandmother should get better soon. But things went against the grain, and my grandmother died suddenly after less than a year of bedridden. I heard from my uncles that my grandmother did not cooperate with recuperation after being injured. She often got up and sat at the door by herself. The fracture healing was always good and bad. In addition to her 80-year-old age, she still did not survive.

After my grandmother passed away, I was very sad. From time to time I think of her kindness to me, and I feel sorry for her unfortunate life experience. I really wish I had the power to change my destiny, but every time I feel how small my power is . Maybe everyone has their own life, and I can't change it. Dust to dust, dust to dust, I hope my grandmother can have a good life in her next life, and she will no longer have such a hard life.
