Wen: I'm Su Yan.

Make an appointment with two free friends to stay at relatives' home in Far South Mountain for one day and enjoy the beautiful scenery in the depths of the mountain.

There are three bends on the way up the mountain, and I can write several zigzags in one stroke. I have been in a male friend's car before, and my heart has been hanging in mid-air. It's my turn to drive. I'm afraid it's early, not 10 thousand, just in case. To be on the safe side, it's safer for me to walk. If it's a big deal, I will be a strong worker and eat more.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, the sun is still bright. After climbing for more than ten minutes, I was a little breathless. Fortunately, friends who travel together are full of talk. They couldn't leave without taking two beautiful photos, mountains, stones, flowers, grass, pheasants, rabbits, birds and butterflies.

The villagers walked for half an hour, but we unconsciously stretched out and stopped to take pictures, and walked unconsciously for two hours. By the time I got to my friend's menstrual home, the old man had been walking back and forth in the village for two or three times, but she couldn't wait. She went home and spread the quilt that had been hanging for a whole day on the kang.

An old mother in her seventies, black and thin, dressed in blue cloth in her seventies, with big feet like a man in the forties, can't be idle for a moment. When she comes out of this room, she will pick up that again. Her hands are rarely empty.

Let the old mother have a rest, and we can cook by ourselves. The old mother sitting in front of the fire kept humming. I thought I heard wrong. I listened carefully. It's really buzzing. As long as she doesn't talk or eat with her mouth, the old mother has been making a sound in her throat, humming a song that she doesn't recognize.

I've always been curious. When I encounter a problem, I must ask myself what's next. This time, I chose silence and random listening.

There is a kind of singing for the sake of singing, a kind of singing for joy, and a kind of subconscious humming. Old mothers should be subconsciously humming. When a stranger consciously discovers the old mother's unconsciousness face to face, once she realizes that she is humming, countless thoughts will appear in her mind, disturbing her subconscious habits for decades. Just like many people say a mantra, they are unaware of it. When others point it out, they say it again and immediately realize it. When they say it again, they will either avoid it or continue to say it, but they will also think they have done something.

The old mother's subconscious humming is very similar to what we want to hum when we are happy, but it is very different. Happiness is a moment, and the days after that are still dull, and hum is only that moment. Obviously, the old mother's happiness is persistent and persistent, and so is her humming. As a result of habit, it has become a subconscious habit and has always taken root.

When cooking, eating and getting up early, you can always see the old couple talking. Topics are big or small, things in the field, things about cats and dogs, things next door, things about children, things about eating and drinking Lazar, and so on. Even if we are strangers, it doesn't affect the communication between two people at all. They exchange topics without others, and of course they will not neglect their guests. The old mother naturally brought food to her wife, and her wife naturally moved the food to her side.

Who would have thought that the two old people lived together for 21 years, and the income from farming went to their own homes, and they would be buried with their deceased original partners after their death.

Writing articles with pictures on weekdays, Baidu searches for pictures of the back, and often sees the old couple leaning on crutches, hunching over the sunset, and often being moved. The two old people I saw at this time are very similar to the old people in the picture. Inviting two old people to take a photo hand in hand, without any shyness, the old father stood up from the small stool in the yard and went out. The old mother took off her white hair and went to the kitchen to look in the mirror.

My old father was waiting at the door and smiled and said to me: Is this still a sedan chair?

After a while, the old mother came out. Father naturally took his mother's hand and smiled like a flower walking hand in hand. In some snapped photos, the old mother's eyelids drooped as if she were asleep. Suddenly thought of a girl's shyness. Look carefully, the old mother is really like a girl, with a happy and shy face.

I was so moved that I almost cried.

The old mother who is also a woman is obviously worse than many of us. She lost three of her six children, her husband died young and spent her whole life farming in the mountains. She is very happy to have an old mobile phone with 200 yuan. The clothes on his body are decades-old clothes, and the leather shoes on his feet were eliminated by his son. I can't ride a bike, I hardly go out all year round, and I don't know much about what's outside. Compared with a woman who wears colorful clothes and often plays in the mountains and rivers, she seems to live a poor, unhappy and unhappy life.

But what do you think? I feel that my old mother is very happy, many times happier than us.

I remember reading a story before. A very rich man finally had time to take a vacation and bought a cruise ship to rest by the sea. He stopped working when he saw a fisherman throw a net of fish. He is too lazy and enterprising.

The rich man said to the fisherman, why don't you catch more fish?

The fisherman said, just eat enough. What's the point of catching so many fish?

The rich man said: you can sell money.

The fisherman said, what can I do if I sell the money?

Like me, I can sleep in my own boat and bask in the sun.

The fisherman said: I am sunbathing on my boat now.

The rich man was stunned and speechless.

In real life, we are all similar to the rich, fighting for money, power and material things, losing health and happiness and fighting for life. When we have material wealth, the body has started to strike, and the state is not optimistic. The great pressure makes us mentally burdened. Physical exhaustion, mental stress, Shuang Shan oppression, where can we find happiness and happiness?

The old mother has a simple life that we have never had before. The happiness and satisfaction of the old mother is something we should learn.

I've never seen it outside the mountain in my life. It is a blessing to leave an acre of land in the mountains, work hard and enjoy the autumn harvest. It is also a blessing to meet someone who can talk all the time. It is a blessing to have an old partner that you can cherish with your heart.

The old mother who lives simply in the mountains is undoubtedly a blessed woman. Let us all envy.
