I remember when I was a child, my grandfather liked me very much. He often hugs me, tells me stories, writes me posts in person, asks me to copy them, and sometimes teaches me by hand. Grandpa's home is far from our residence, but he often comes to see me and sends some books and toys. When he came to work, he never forgot to visit me in kindergarten. According to the kindergarten teacher, the last time he came to see me, I was playing with my children. He couldn't bear to disturb me, so he just watched outside and asked the teacher to hand me a bag of popcorn. At that time, I didn't have any expectations for my grandfather, but I was also puzzled. Soon, grandpa passed away. I didn't expect this to be the last time I met my grandfather!
Grandpa is a teacher and very cultured. When he died, he left nothing but his own newspaper collection. The word "Xiao Ji" is neatly written on the cover with a brush. There are many contents in it, such as literature, history, sociality, famous sayings, diet, etc., all of which are carefully selected from newspapers and periodicals. Although there are not many things, his spirit of hard work and simplicity has always been preserved.
According to my father, my grandfather led a hard life. His father died when he was three years old, and he earned some money to go to school by going to selling groceries along the street in his childhood. Later, I became a poor teacher for my father and my uncle to go to college. I have never enjoyed any happiness in my life. Two years before his death, he saved thousands of yuan (RMB) and asked my father to leave it to me for college. How difficult it is for a primary school teacher with a monthly salary of less than 100 yuan in the 1980s! However, when he died, there was no money in his pocket, only a small note with his friend's name written on it. I learned more about my father from his story.
Grandpa is my most unforgettable person, and I miss him very much.
