Since it is Chinese New Year, it should look like Chinese New Year. No matter how many people are left in the family, it will be deserted and lively.

Liang Ye and I shouldered the task of purchasing new year's goods. Liang Ye, a young master who doesn't distinguish between five grains, seems to be more interested than me.

Although he is not proficient in the selection of goods, but because he grew up with the elderly since he was a child, he still has some understanding of the types of New Year's goods.

Seeing him walking around in front of the booths, asking questions, and after a while, he started negotiating prices without a teacher. This year, it suddenly has a new year flavor.

Seeing Liang Ye coming in and out of the house, my mother was also very happy. Her happiness probably came from the smile on my face.

On the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, we decided to visit Liang Ye's grandparents first. They lived in the provincial capital city. Although it was lively and prosperous, the warmth of family affection was worth all the material pleasures.

With the gifts we prepared, we set off.

Liang Ye's grandparents are both over 80 years old and live in a sanatorium for retired cadres. According to him, his grandfather was a professor at the Agricultural University before retirement, and his grandmother was the school doctor of that university.

The two also experienced ups and downs when they were young, and they supported each other all the way to today.

When my grandpa and grandma were young, they were catching up with the going-to-the-country sports. My grandpa was a foreigner, and I met my grandma only after jumping in the queue.

The two fell in love and got married smoothly, but the turmoil happened after marriage.

When the college entrance examination resumed in [-], my grandfather picked up his textbooks again. At that time, they had been married for three years, and Liang Ye's mother was one year old.

Regarding my grandfather's repetition, only my grandmother in the whole family supports it.

At that time, I was poor, and the young couple could not support the family. If I went to study alone, what would my wife and children do to support me?

But grandma knew grandpa's aspirations well, and she couldn't bear to bury her husband's knowledge.

So, she made the decision, moved out from her parents, separated, and lived alone.

The small family is independent, and the children are still young. At first, the life of the family of three was difficult.But grandma is unyielding, the more difficult life is, she knows, the more they want to change their destiny.

Grandma went to the pharmacy to help people weigh medicine during the day, and did some sewing and sewing at night, working two jobs to support the family.

In the second year, my grandfather was admitted to Renmin University of China. Before leaving, my grandmother boiled the only seven eggs in the family and brought them to my grandfather.

During the entire college period thereafter, Yueyue sent living expenses to her husband and seasonal clothes by post. She stayed at home alone with her children and managed to survive for four years.

Grandpa graduated four years later, and many people advised him to stay in Beijing, so that the capital can develop and have opportunities in the future.

But grandpa resolutely returned to grandma's side, he only said: "I can't let her down."

Grandpa came back here and joined the Agricultural University as a teacher. Although life is good now, the students who enrolled at the same time as him all know what he gave up in the end.

Every time this is mentioned, grandpa just smiles and doesn't speak. He never feels that he has missed anything. On the contrary, he has a lot.

When Liang Ye and I arrived, the two elderly people were having leisure time after lunch. Grandpa went to the chess and card room to play chess with old friends, while grandma was knitting a sweater for grandpa wearing presbyopic glasses.

Liang Ye was shocked.

The old man was both shocked and happy to see his grandson.

Grandma took Liang Ye's hand and asked him to sit next to her. She said, "Little boy, why are you back?"

Liang Ye's nickname turned out to be "Xiaoguai", which I didn't expect.

Liang Ye gently took off the reading glasses for grandma and put them away.

He said: "Of course I miss you! Come back to spend the New Year with you."

Grandma looked at me next to me.

Liang Ye hurriedly introduced and said, "Grandma, this is the good friend and brother I often mention to you—Jiang Yuze and Xiaoze."

Grandma nodded and smiled kindly: "This is Ozawa, he looks really cute, even better than my little boy!"

I went up to say hello, "Grandma! I'm Ozawa. Liang Ye misses you very much. I came to visit you with him."

Grandma said hello repeatedly, and took my hand to let me sit on the other side of her.

Grandma's hand was very warm, and she held my hand, and I felt an inexplicable sense of relief.

Liang Ye went to call grandpa, and I stayed with grandma. The old man looked at me with a smile, and kept looking for candies in the cabinet for me.

She treats me like a child.

When Liang Ye came back with the help of grandpa, my hands were already full of colorful fruit-flavored candies.

Accompanying the two elderly people until the morning of the New Year's Eve, after lunch, grandpa and grandma urged us to go back. They knew the situation of my house and wanted to make my house lively.

Grandpa said: "Xiao Ze, take Liang Ye back quickly! We have a lot of people, and we have to participate in activities with our old neighbors at night. It's very lively! You don't need to accompany us, let's go back to celebrate the New Year." As he spoke, he patted Liang Ye on the shoulder: "By the way, take my grandson away too. With him as a noisy master, we can't stop this year."

Grandpa deliberately showed disgust.

Liang Ye hugged his grandfather in an instant, acting coquettish and cute, which made us laugh out loud.

Feeling the kindness and love of my grandparents to me, I am really grateful from the bottom of my heart.

It has been nearly a hundred years of life, and the two old people are still loving and charitable. I only hope that my grandpa and grandma can be healthy and healthy.

We rushed back to the small county on the last bus on the New Year’s Eve. On the way back, I suddenly thought of a question, that is, why did Liang Ye transfer to our small county to study in the first place?

Liang Ye told me the reason. It turned out that Liang Ye was demerited for beating up injustices in the provincial capital high school. Afterwards, the teacher asked Liang Ye to apologize indiscriminately. Liang Ye refused. The teacher found his grandpa and grandma.

The grandfather understood the whole story and immediately decided to transfer schools for Liang Ye. He could disregard his grandson's academic performance, but he was not sloppy in cultivating the child's personality.

The principal of our county high school is a student of my grandfather. He was so happy from ear to ear when he saw Liang Ye's report card, and immediately went through the admission procedures for Liang Ye.

I understand the principal's thoughts. The rate of students entering key universities is a great achievement in the eyes of the local education bureau.Some people even do not hesitate to repeat their studies year after year, earning generous scholarships with their high scores every year.

I was more interested in the reason for his fight in the original high school. When I asked him, he hesitated and refused to say.

Seeing his embarrassing appearance, I don't need to ask me to understand it. It seems that it is the reason why I can't escape my female classmates.

When we got home, steaming dumplings were put on the table.

There are three more people in our family, and no matter how long he can stay here, he belongs to me now, and belongs to our family.

After the third day of junior high school, Liang Ye is going back, and I will go with him.

This time it was still the same, he went to the airport and I went to the train station.

But this time the parting is no longer full of sorrow, it should be that the happy atmosphere of the New Year has not dissipated, Liang Ye and I both smiled and let go of each other's hands.

Because we all know that distance cannot separate our feelings, and I also made up my mind that I will go to him as soon as possible.

I was the first person in the same dormitory to return to school. The dormitory building has not yet opened. Under the arrangement of the dormitory management, I lived in the postgraduate dormitory that has not returned to my hometown.

Once I stepped into the school gate, I adjusted to the fighting mode. I went back and forth between the dormitory and the reading hall every day. The graduate students who lived with me saw how hard I was, a freshman, and joked that I brought them pressure.

It was a pleasure to spend a short time with them, and I learned a lot from these wonderful people.

My sophomore year was a very busy half year for me, because I had to fight for an exchange student place at Oxford University in the second half of the year.How busy I am is that I haven't contacted my mother for a month.

I remembered that when I called her, it was because of the birthday reminder I wrote on my phone. Her birthday was coming, and I forgot to prepare any presents.

I hastily called her, but her emotions sounded normal.

I explained to her on the phone why I am busy recently, and mentioned the number of exchange students in the second half of the year, and I am bound to get the number of places.

She didn't make a sound on the other end of the phone for a long time. I could feel that she didn't seem that happy, but I didn't know what she was unhappy about.

After saying a few words, she hung up the phone.

I think, she may still care that I forgot her birthday, I secretly plan what festival I will go to next time, and I must prepare double gifts for her to make up for my negligence this time.

Although the number of exchange students is publicly funded, the living expenses that need to be prepared by themselves should not be too small, and I have my own plan.

So, in the days that followed, I used all the time after class to work as a teacher for a tutoring institution, and to guide students who took the IELTS and TOEFL exams. By July of that year, I had already collected enough basic living expenses.

I thought I would spend the rest of the days in anticipation, and I even hid the news from Liang Ye, thinking I would definitely give him a surprise.

However, I was too naive, and fate gave me another fright.

When the phone rang, I was teaching students in a tutoring institution. I chose to refuse to answer, but the unfamiliar number called over and over again. I couldn't, so I had to answer it.

The voice over there was unfamiliar, but the name she mentioned was familiar to me, she said, my mother passed out on the street.

I asked her to take my mother to the hospital, and then I rushed back to my hometown overnight.

That was my first time flying, and I was still holding the 2000 yuan salary that the boss of the tutoring class gave me.

I arrived home in a dazed way, took the account book and passbook, and rushed to the hospital. My mother's operation was not over yet, and it had been nearly five hours. I knew that my mother was in danger.

Few of her surviving relatives are direct blood relatives. I thought of an aunt living in Lin Province who had been married far away for more than [-] years and hadn’t returned home. I knew they were still in touch, so I called her.

This little aunt, who had never met before, came very quickly. When my mother was pushed out of the operating room, she cried so much that others thought the operation had failed.

My mother turned from danger to safety, and my heart fell to the ground.

I settled my aunt in a nearby hotel, and I rushed back to the hospital to accompany her.

The school has already called for leave, and the teacher is very worried that I will affect the original plan, but at this moment, I really dare not promise anything, so I have to wait for my mother to wake up before making plans.

I went to the doctor to find out the situation, and what I got was outright bad news.
