Life is like a play

"Now life is better, I don't have to worry about food and clothing anymore, and farmers don't have to work so hard. It's a pity that your grandfather didn't have a good life like this in his lifetime. Grandma said sadly, "In the past, the days were very bitter, not enough, not warm, the children were all confused and pulled to grow up, there is a saying, 'the new boss, the old second, tattered to the third,' whether it is adults and children, it is rare to buy a pair of new shoes, the general situation is not willing to wear, even wear it is very cherished, walking in a puddle, and even take off the shoes and walk barefoot. Later, the conditions were better, and it was the same when I bought a bicycle, and when I encountered a puddle, I didn't hesitate to get out of the car and carry the bicycle and walk over. Adults work very hard in the fields, turning over the soil is dug with a shovel and a spade, and it takes half a day to dig a small piece; weeding is also pulled out by hand one by one, at that time there is no condition to wear gloves for farm work, not only the work efficiency is low, pulling the grass down for half a day, the hands will be red and swollen, and even blisters; watering is carried with a flat pole, and if you pick too much, the shoulders will be crushed with blood. I remember that in the spring of the year when your grandfather 'left', in order to let the skinny children eat a few full meals so that they would not starve their bodies, your grandfather reluctantly agreed to a bet with the landlord's son, if he could carry a load of water from the east end of the village to the west of the village, and then from the west of the village to the east of the village, and then eat 20 fritters in a row, the landlord's son would admit defeat and promise to give your grandfather a bag of rice. Grandma wiped away her tears and continued to choke, "Your grandfather won back a bag of rice in this way, and gave the family snacks for a while, and improved the food for the hungry children." But since then, his health has deteriorated day by day, and he often coughs up blood. In those years, life was very difficult, the children almost starved to death, how could they have extra money to go to the doctor, so they could only delay, and soon they were bedridden and died within half a year. Although Yan had heard his grandmother mention this matter more than once, every time his grandmother talked about it, it was so sad, and Yan sounded the same sadness, and he couldn't help but sigh sincerely, "In the difficult years, grandpa exchanged his life for the food, clothing and survival of his children. Think about yourself, think about your peers, sometimes complain about some small difficulties, complain about your parents, think about it like this, it's really ashamed, live a life like heaven, but not satisfied.
