10. Occasionally come to live with relatives

My family and my aunt's family are very busy in business, and I rarely have the opportunity to pick up my grandmother to live at home, but occasionally a few times, my aunt will also bring my grandmother to the city, my grandmother has asthma, she can only live on the first floor, most of them live in my aunt's house, when she is not busy, she will help my aunt's family do what she can, peel garlic! Every time she comes to my house, a minute away, she walks for seven or eight minutes, and my grandmother is old! But how old is she, I really haven't asked her!

When she came to live in my house, we were still in school, and the adults were doing business, and she was quietly doing it at the door in a daze, unlike in her house, in the countryside, where someone was nagging. We didn't have the habit of turning off the lights casually, so my grandmother dragged her heavy body to the second floor and turned off the lights, and my grandmother was used to saving money! But every time I climbed a staircase, she couldn't breathe, and she had to rest for a long time! I felt sorry for my grandmother, and every time I went to the first floor, I found that the lights on the second floor were not extinguished, so I ran up and turned it off, but after my grandmother came home, I was not used to turning off the lights casually!

Today I took a bath with my grandmother, because my grandmother can't use the faucet at home, I took a basin of water and poured it over her head, and my grandmother said that the water was too urgent, and she couldn't breathe. When she took a bath, she also washed her own clothes! She didn't want to trouble her family! Every time she ate, her grandmother always ate only rice and vegetables, and her mother added a dish to her, and she hid in her arms with a bowl and didn't eat any more! This is her daughter's house, and she looks so raw! My aunt said that my grandmother didn't dare to come to my house again, because my parents often quarreled and got angry, and she was afraid of causing trouble to her beloved daughter! This is my grandmother! But my father treats his relatives exactly the opposite of his mother!

Once, there was a white-haired old woman living in the house, and my father said that this was his aunt, that is, my eldest aunt, and my father was very filial to her, respected her, and made the bed for him! It was very cold, and my father brought him the water to wash his feet, and also used a small sun for her to keep warm, like taking care of an old child who did not grow up, and my aunt and grandmother were happiest every day smoking and playing mahjong! My father would also accompany her to play a few rounds and lose some money to make her happy, and she would give me happy noodles to eat when she won the money! But at the end of the day, I still have to clean up the smoky chess and card room, she lived in my house for many days, and my father bought her new cotton clothes, middle-aged and elderly styles, loose and warm! I also have to cook for my aunt every day! One day, she was tired at noon, and she fell asleep while smoking, and the cigarette butt burned a big hole in the bedding! My father was afraid of the queen mother when she thought about it, there was no one at home, and if there was a fire, my aunt's legs and feet really couldn't run! After sending my aunt back to my own home, my father's filial piety was also fulfilled, my father's parents died early, and my filial piety was used on my aunt's body, and I saw my father's filial piety to his relatives, respect! and his hospitality for three minutes! My aunt only came once, and the only time was when I was in the sixth grade of elementary school!

My aunts came to visit our family once in a while! After all, it was not practical for us to visit relatives and friends. When they came, they bought this and that, and they also helped cook and make dumplings, the family that did business was very busy, busy from morning to night, my parents still asked me to cook and wash vegetables in a commanding tone, but I accidentally cut my thumb when I picked up the kitchen knife, and it hurt hard, I wrapped it in toilet paper and continued to stir-fry, but they were chatting on the side, my aunt wanted to help, and was pressed by my father to sit on the chair, thinking that I was my daughter's family, doing housework was a matter of course, and my fingers were still bleeding! But I had to continue stir-frying, and my aunts sat around us for a meal. After eating, of course, I washed pots and pans, cleaned the kitchen stove, and didn't even have gloves at that time! Bleeding hands had to soak in the basin of detergent to wash dishes, that kind of pain, fingertip pain or heartache, back to them, my tears are also in this pool of dishwashing water, try to reduce inflammation!

Day after day, repeating such a busy and tiring housework life, every year I look forward to which day will come! Open the calendar, there are three days, I can eat cake, but that day came, except for yelling at me more loudly than usual, there were no surprises, I should have known that they had forgotten, my birthday! Maybe too busy, maybe, I didn't pay attention to it at all! And the most important thing I did that day was still to do laundry and housework, and I was picked on by them! But there is a thorn in my heart, it is a gift from you, when can you pull it out, when can I feel that you are no longer bitter and mean! Maybe that day will never come, I swear to myself, when I grow up, I will leave you, far away, from this home! never come back......

Soon the high school entrance examination is over, the school heavy academic life, I hope to grow up and leave this kind of family quickly, learning is not an easy thing, for me who has no talent for learning! There is also the teaching method of chalk characters! We are just donkeys riding on books! I remember the junior high school classical Chinese text, which was the subject of the high school entrance examination!

"Shun is in the acres, Fu said that it is lifted between the plates, the rubber is lifted in the fish and salt, Guan Yiwu is raised in the Shi, Sun Shu Ao is raised in the sea, and Baili Xi is held in the city. Therefore, the heavens will descend on people, and they must first suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skins, empty their bodies, and act chaotically, so they will be tempted to endure and benefit from what they cannot."

I memorized it very smoothly, but I didn't really understand what it meant.
