Once, I asked my father inexplicably, "Why don't you borrow Uncle Wang's car? Should be more labor-saving! " Dad said with a wry smile, "silly boy, look at this uphill road." It is winding, steep and narrow. Can the car drive past? " I said, "Then why don't you feel heavy and buy so many dishes?" Dad said, "My hometown is short of water and I can't grow vegetables. The traffic is inconvenient. I haven't come to sell vegetables for a long time, and I don't order. What does grandma eat? " I said, "Alas, my hometown is so backward!" Dad was speechless and continued to push the car up.
Finally, when I arrived at my hometown, my grandmother quickly called us face washing water. I see, where is this face washing water? It's just a basin of yellow mud. Seeing that my mother and I were hesitant, grandma said that it hadn't rained recently and the water tank was dry. This water was just pulled back by my uncle next door from a pond more than ten miles away. Looking at grandma's difficult appearance, dad shed tears.
Just as mom and dad were helping grandma cook, a man came home. He is tall, dark and thin, wearing shabby and dirty clothes. It turned out that he was his father's middle school classmate and called his father's real name as soon as he entered the door. Dad hurried to meet him and said, "Oh, I haven't seen you for years. How did you become like a little old man? " It turned out that he had come to borrow money from his father. There are two children in his family. Because they were too poor to pay their tuition, they came to borrow money from their father when they heard that he was back. He said, "I'm sorry, I know it's hard for you, but I really can't help it." School started for several days, and the tuition fees of the two children were still confiscated ... "Without further ado, Dad took out 200 yuan money from him.
Before we finished our meal, another old woman came. She is Grandma Huang in the east of the village. Because she is sick all the year round and her son is disabled, life at home is very difficult. Dad gave her the only 200 yuan money he had, and asked her to treat the disease.
When I went home this time, my parents repeatedly mobilized my grandmother to live in the city with us, saying that we had just allocated a family room. Grandma agreed. Since then, my grandmother and I have never been back to our hometown.
On National Day this year, my uncle's son got married, and my grandmother always wanted to go home. My parents and I took my grandmother back to our hometown.
When I went home this time, my father borrowed a brand-new Mitsubishi car. We got off the secondary road from Xincheng to Guosui, along the main road repaired by our hometown, and drove all the way to the entrance of our hometown village. Along the way, grandma said happily, "son, look how much our hometown has changed." The yellow mud road, which used to be steep and rotten, is now wide and flat. " Hometown people will never worry about this bad road again. "
We came to my uncle's house, which was a happy scene. The whole village came to help prepare the banquet. Washing vegetables, steaming steamed buns and burning meat are all very busy. Tap water gushed out. An aunt who was washing vegetables said to her father, "Look, our hometown also uses tap water like your city. You won't have to wash your face with yellow mud when you get home. " Dad said with emotion: "Yes! Not only has tap water been used, but the houses of every household have also changed. The mud tile house became a building, the lights were on, the telephone was connected, and the surrounding mountains were green. Everyone seems to be several years younger. "
