60 Grandma's Pain
A light snow adds a bit of peace to the New Year, and people are immersed in the joy of saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
My father received a phone call out of the blue, and I heard his tone begin to strengthen, and from what he said I could already understand what was happening. The call just now was from his cousin Hao, who stayed in his hometown to celebrate the New Year with his grandmother.
Father said angrily, "Your grandmother broke her arm while clearing the snow." This is the New Year, why do you want to go out to sweep the snow!
My father and I immediately rushed to my grandmother's house, and my grandmother was covered with sweat, and she said to her cousin, "Hurry up and pull it for me!" Grandma meant that Hao should hurry up and pull her arm. Grandma thought her hand was dislocated.
Hao looked at me very embarrassed, and I said to my grandmother, "Grandma, you can't pull it now, if it breaks, the more you pull, the worse it gets." The father first angrily blamed the grandmother, this shouldn't be, that shouldn't be. Later, he simply stepped forward to grab my grandmother's arm to pull, but I hurriedly stepped forward to stop it, and my father dispelled the idea of pulling his arm. My cousin Hiroshi was also worried about his big big impulse, so he stood up and joined me in blocking it.
"Don't blame me! Grandma said to us sitting on a chair at the door. Seeing my grandmother's pain, it hurt in her body, and it hurt in my heart.
Grandma is actually worried about going to the hospital and causing trouble for us juniors. Despite the excruciating pain, she reluctantly thought it was just a dislocation. Until an old man from the same village came and did ideological work for his grandmother. Grandma's mood stabilized!
If that kind of situation happened in a city family, the old lady probably wouldn't panic at all, and it would be a big deal to cry for a while, take a taxi and go to the hospital. And where did Grandma's panic come from?
Grandma didn't say it, but we all understood. She worries about adding trouble to us and making her children spend money. I have never been to the hospital in my life, and at this age, I naturally don't want to cause trouble to my children anymore! It is precisely because of this kind of self-blame that my grandmother sighs in pain.
I really feel that people are old and pitiful, and not many people feel distressed. The children's care and attention gradually turned to their children, but gradually ignored the pain and happiness of their parents.
At first, my grandmother didn't go to the hospital for a check-up, and she was stubborn like her grandmother when she was young! My cousin Hao said to me helplessly, "Brother, look at grandma!" What can I do?
Later, under the persuasion of the elderly in the same village, my grandmother finally agreed to go to the hospital for examination. My father rode a motorcycle and drove my grandmother to the town hospital for examination, looking at the backs of my grandmother and my father, and my heart was mixed. A smile appeared on Hao's face.
For the months that followed, Grandma wore a plaster cast. Hao went to school in another place, and I also returned to the unit. I always think of my grandmother's painful expression and her arm in a plaster cast. I feel very uncomfortable!
It is often said that raising children is to prevent old age. As a son, I wondered if when my parents were old, would I still be able to ride a motorcycle to see my parents like my father.
It seems that the distance is far away, but in fact it is already within reach. My father is in his fifties this year, and I am almost thirty years old in the blink of an eye. What I can do may be to try to make the pain of my loved ones pureer, without mixing factors and worries other than pain.
Brother Hao was able to take time out to spend time with his grandmother during the holidays, and lived up to the love of those old people. At least it shows that Brother Hao's heart is grateful, and he has not forgotten the fun and care of his childhood.
The pain in the body is short-lived, but the pain in the heart is incurable. Grandma's pain came from the injured arm. Her heart may be warm because of us.
