Chapter 459: Crane Hair and Green Silk
(20)
I feel like I've learned from my mother's lessons. Today, when my mother is 69 years old, because the obvious tumor is already very pitiful, she is still thinking about what gifts to bring back for her children and grandchildren, neighbors, relatives and friends.
When I was a child, I often had to go to other people's houses to give my mother's gifts, but in fact, I felt very sad, as if I was going to befriend someone. People don't take your gifts seriously, and at best, say thank you, but Mom always gives everything she has, mailing it back as she goes, and finally carries more baggage back than a refugee with all her belongings.
It may be that things must be reversed, I will carry a small bag when I go out, and I will walk with two hands. Once at the airport, I was stopped by a handsome guy and asked me to help carry Mr. Tian Hua's things, he was a college student volunteer, only responsible for sending to Shuangliu Airport, but Mr. Tian Hua had too many gifts, and he found that I was empty-handed for a boarding pass to Beijing, so he asked me to help.
I carried a few paper bags from the famous teacher Tian Hua in both hands and followed her, and she walked so fast that she didn't care about me. I thought to myself, if it were my mother, I wouldn't be comfortable handing things over to strangers, and I wouldn't be walking in front of her. When I sat down in the departure lounge, I started eating. After eating, I took out my notebook and asked Mr. Tian Hua to sign it, telling her that my mother was her fan.
She signed her name very casually and said to me, "The phone number left is from home, you can call me if you have something." ”
It was in May of 1994, when my mother was still red-faced, younger than when she was forty, because her children were very competitive and they got in. Everyone praised her for her blessings.
But now, at the celebration of the 60th anniversary of the National Day, Mr. Tian Hua is still the same crane hair and childish appearance as 15 years ago, but my mother has gone from a rich middle age to a sick old age.
But my mother still had green hair, and I found two gray hairs after searching for them, and I laughed with joy, because according to genetics, I don't have to worry about dyeing my hair. My mother also said regretfully: "There was only one, but why did it grow another one!"
Mom saw the close-up of Teacher Tian Hua on TV, and talked about "The Party's Daughter", "Secret Drawings", and "The White-Haired Girl", which she never got tired of watching.
I told her about the situation with Mr. Tian Hua at the airport, and what I remember vividly is that Mr. Tian Hua also had to eat before boarding, and the boiled eggs were prepared for her by the conference organizer in Leshan, and she threw them into the garbage basket when she saw that the yolk was black, and did not start eating until she saw that the yolk was yellow. And before that, I always thought that the blackened egg yolk was just because it took too long to cook, and there was no strange smell, it was edible, didn't there still be people who loved to eat that kind of stinky hairy eggs?
Teacher Tian Hua said: It is not fresh, and I would rather not eat it than eat expired food, which will affect my health.
When Hong Kong returned to China in 1997, I watched the live broadcast of a foreign TV station, which was a real-time live broadcast with no dubbing and no editing. During the group photo, Mr. Tian Hua stood beside ** and spoke......
