In those days, did you ever have the experience of being in the midst of blessings and not knowing how blessed you were?

To be honest, when I was in adolescence, I was a typical example of someone who was unaware of the blessings despite being surrounded by blessings. At that time, my parents sent me to my grandma's house because they worked too late, because they didn't live with grandma much when I was a child. So it always felt strange.

In the countryside, earthen stoves are used for cooking, and especially large pots are used for cooking. It's not easy to make a fire, and it takes a long time to prepare a meal. But I didn't know it at the time. I just felt that everywhere in the kitchen was dark and felt particularly unhygienic. So I ate very little of the food cooked by my grandma, always feeling that it would spoil my stomach. Thinking about it now, it was really hypocritical at that time.

My grandma thought that I was not used to eating, so she cooked me different dishes in different ways. She was afraid that I would not be full, so she tried her best to pick up vegetables for me, which made me even more annoyed. But at that time, my grandma and I were not very close, so it was hard for me to say anything. I can only keep rejecting her. But grandma felt very guilty. She still felt that I didn’t eat well at her place.

We have a very special local delicacy called fern root cake. But things like fern roots need to be dug up in the mountains. Grandma wanted to make it for me to eat, so before dawn, grandpa went to the mountains to dig together. I heard that he accidentally tripped while digging. They worked hard to dig it back and made it into fern root cake, which was placed in front of me. I thought it didn't look good, so I didn't even move my chopsticks.

At that time, I often came back very late from playing. No matter how many times I said I had already had dinner. Grandma insisted on lighting a fire for me and holding a bowl of noodles. I feel touched now, but at the time I was just impatient.

I haven’t seen my grandma for a long time. I was ignorant at the time and hurt her, so now I feel guilty and want to eat her cooking.
