Grandma ate two cherries and was yelled at by her mother, and her daughter-in-law was angry: Isn't it just for people to eat when they buy it?

My name is Li Qiang, and I am a programmer at an Internet company, and I live a 9-to-5 life every day. Although I am busy with work, I have a happy family, my wife is gentle and kind, my son is lively and lovely, and my parents and grandparents are healthy, which makes me feel very satisfied.

A peaceful life is always broken by little things. That night, I came home from work and as soon as I walked in the door, I felt that something was wrong. In the living room, his wife Xiaoli and her mother sat on the sofa, both of them with straight faces and did not say a word. Grandma sat on the sidelines, her head bowed, nervously stirring her handkerchief in her hand.

"What's the matter? Who you off? I put down my briefcase and asked suspiciously.

Mom was the first to speak, with a hint of dissatisfaction in her tone: "It's not your grandma, such an expensive cherry, she can do it, she ate two of them as soon as she ate it!" ”

I wondered even more, isn't it just two cherries? As for making such a big fire? I turned my head to look at my wife, hoping that she would give me a reasonable explanation.

Xiaoli sighed and said, "Your mother bought a box of cherries two days ago, saying that they were imported, and it cost more than 200 yuan a catty!" She was reluctant to eat it herself, so she thought that she would eat it when you and your brother-in-law's family came back on the weekend. Who knows, this afternoon your grandmother saw it, so she took two and ate it, and when your mother saw it, she began to count down your grandmother, saying that she was wasting money......"

That's when I realized that this was what was going on. I turned my head to look at my grandmother, and I saw that her eyes were red, as if she was about to cry. My heart suddenly felt sour, my grandmother has loved me since I was a child, and she has suffered a lot in order to provide me with education. Now, she is old and eats two cherries, but she is counted down by her daughter-in-law like this, how can she stand it?

I walked up to my grandmother, patted her gently on the shoulder, and comforted, "Grandma, it's okay, isn't it just two cherries?" You can eat as much as you want, don't worry. ”

Grandma looked up at me with gratitude in her eyes. She opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't say anything, just nodded slightly.

Seeing my grandmother like this, I felt even more uncomfortable. I walked up to my mother and said in a calm tone, "Mom, you also know that grandma is old, and sometimes things may not be as thoughtful as we think. However, she is also unintentional, so don't blame her. ”

Mom wanted to say something, but I interrupted: "Mom, I know you are distressed about money, but money is inexhaustible, and family is the most important thing." Grandma is old, we should be filial to her and let her spend her old age happily, right? ”

Mom listened to my words, was silent for a moment, and finally nodded and said, "I know, it's me who is not good, I shouldn't have said that about your grandmother." ”

I saw that my mother's attitude had eased, so I struck while the iron was hot and said, "Mom, do you think this will work?" Don't keep this box of cherries, we'll eat it tonight, and let grandma try it. ”

Mom hesitated for a moment and said, "This ...... What a waste of ......."

I smiled and said, "Mom, what's there to waste?" Eating happily together as a family is more important than anything else. ”

Eventually, my mother was convinced. That night, we sat around as a family, eating sweet cherries, and the atmosphere was very harmonious. Grandma also had a long-lost smile on her face, and I felt extremely relieved in my heart.

After this incident, I began to reflect on myself. In life, we are always bogged down by all sorts of trivial things and neglect what really matters. Money is important, but it is not omnipotent, it cannot buy family affection, nor can it buy happiness. We should cherish the time we spend with our families, be more understanding and tolerant, and be less concerned and complaining, so that we can have a truly happy family.

Since then, I have paid more attention to my family's feelings and cherished the time I spent with them even more. I often take my wife and children home to visit my parents and grandmother, chat with them, take a walk, and let them feel my care and love. I also often buy some fruit snacks for my family, especially cherries, which my grandmother likes to eat. Every time I see my grandmother happily eating the cherries I bought, my heart is filled with happiness and satisfaction.

I know that filial piety to parents and respect for elders are the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation. As children, we have the responsibility and obligation to take care of them so that they can rely on them and enjoy their old age. I believe that as long as we work hard, we will be able to build a harmonious and happy family and make home a warm harbor for us.
