[交流] Liangliang's great grandmother

Liangliang is a boy of about 4 years old, his family live in the same community with us.

Liangliang's father is about 30, he works as a guard in our school. Liangliang's mother works in a prison.

When Liangliang was young, he was accompanied by his great grandmother.

Except Liangliang, other kids in the neighborhood are all looked after by their parents or grandparents. So, Liangliang's condition is much different from others.

Because Liangliang's parents are in their 30s, his grandparenst mus be in their 50s or 60s, this is a good age for babysitting.

However, we never saw them. Because I don't work in the same department with Liangliang's father, a young and smiling man, so I don't know why Liangliang's grandparents don't come.

When Liangliang didn't go to kindgarten, that is Liangliang was younger than three, his great grandmother was busy, because at daytime, Liangliang's parents were seldom home, Liangliang was with his great grandmother.

Liangliang's great grandmother looked healthy at that time, although we know she was in her 80s. An old lady from northeast China often walked and talked with Liangliang's great grandmother. They must be good friends. But later, the old lady left.

And as time goes on, Liangliang also went to kindgarten.

After that, we did not see Liangliang's great grandmother for some time.

When we saw her again, we found she was much thinner than before, and looked not very healthy.

My mother has lived here for several years to look after my daughter. At that time, she also talked with Liangliang's great grandmother. So, at present, when I met Liangliang's great grandmother and said hello to her, she often asked me, does your mother come? I said no. She often told me that she was going to buy some yoghourt.

This noon, when I went home, I met Liangliang's great grandmother again, this time, she walked to the same direction with me, so we talked more than saying hello.

I asked her age. She said her year of birth is sheep, she was in her 80s, and asked whether I can calculate her age, I said no. She said she was born in 1930, I said, so you are 82 now.

The topic quickly changed to her history. She said her family was destroyed by the Janpanese invaders. The Japanese wanted three things, the eighth Route Army Men, money and beautiful ladies. When you could not give these, they would kill you. People were tied up to benches, and pepper soup was introduced into their nostrils, then the Japanese press your belly to let the soup out. She said, her father was killed this way, her mother became mad, she ran, and cried, kill the Japanese, kill the Japanese and assaulted other people, people had to run away when she was still faraway.

Liangliang's great grandmother said, I have so sorrowful a history, but whom can I tell? What can I do? She said she was sold to a man with a surname of Wang to be a child bride at the age of 9, got married in 1948. Her husband was taken away to serve in the army in 1949, and never returned. When her husband left, his son was only a three-month embryo.

There is no Flame Moutain that you can not cross in this world, she said.

The Sixth Plant was not there anymore, she referred to the Sixth Textile Plant. I told her, it was moved to the west of the city. She said, that was a desolate place, you know, there were about 10 thousand people in the Sixth Plant before. I asked whether she worked there before, she said yes. She said she and other 600 people came from Shandong to surport the industry in this city.

I came when I was 26, but now I am in my 80s, she said, with a smile in her face.

I asked about her health condition, she said, I am rather good, you know, old machines also got rusty, let alone a person.

At this time, I got to the gate of my house, and said good-bye to her. She said, you live here? Oh, take care!

She is in her 80s, I did not say this to her, but she told me to take care! Oh, a nice old granny.
