Liu Liping, 46, has climbed several deep and shallow wrinkles on his forehead and his hair has turned gray, but his eyes are kind and his face is full of happiness and satisfaction. Liu Liping and her husband, Zhang Jide, live a very rich life after marriage. Her in-laws are generous, her husband is thrifty, and their children are healthy and smart. Although life is a little poor and the economy is not very affluent, everything is so natural and pleasant, and the family is warm, harmonious and happy. 1997, a disaster suddenly tore Liu Liping's happy days to pieces. Her husband, who was only 37 years old, fell from a tree because of chopping it down, and died after being rescued. The sky suddenly collapsed, and Liu Liping cried for three days and nights holding the coffin and fainted several times. Every time she wakes up, she wishes she couldn't go with her husband. But she knows that a pair of young children can't live without their mothers, and the elderly in-laws will need someone to take care of them in the future. What will they do if they fall? Liu Liping finally chose a strong life.
Seeing off her husband and wiping away her tears, Liu Liping resolutely shouldered the burden of life alone. She must learn to do almost everything that men do in the fields. In spring, she learned to drive cattle to plow the land and fight pesticides; In summer, she hoes grass in the scorching sun and waters it in the dark at night. In autumn, she sweated profusely and used a sickle to harvest a year's hard work; In winter, she has to take time out to make some shoes for the old and the young. As long as she has a little free time, she will do odd jobs and help people in nearby villages do farm work ... No matter how hard and tired, as long as she can earn money with her hands and strength, she never gives up any opportunity. In this way, Liu Liping endured the hardships of 1 1 year.
Several degrees of wind and rain, several degrees of spring and autumn, wind, frost, rain and snow are not worried. After her husband left, the two children were not only unaffected in their studies, but also stronger and more sensible. The room is full of various awards they have won.
During this period, many relatives and neighbors saw that married women with children and single women were having a hard time, so they helped her find someone. However, Liu Liping always felt that the two children were too young, and she refused politely for fear that they would suffer. She said, it's not too late to think about personal problems when I have all my children in college. In fact, in educating two children, she is generous and stingy, demanding that children eat well and study hard no matter how difficult it is, not to be in poor health and not to delay their studies; In life, you can't keep up with your classmates and can't dress up. You should keep the good habit of thrift. In this special family, it is under her correct teaching that two children are more sensible than others. They know that it is not easy for their mother to make money for their studies, so they are particularly angry and want to study. In 2005, 18-year-old daughter Zhang Xiaofeng was successfully admitted to a four-year undergraduate program in tianshui normal university. At that time, the kind neighbor advised her: "You have an old man in the world now, and the son below is in the third grade. With such a heavy burden, you should give up your daughter and save money for your son to go to college! " My daughter was also ambivalent at the time. She knows that it is not easy for her mother to scrimp and save for her high school and her brother's junior high school. She can no longer bear the burden of her mother, but at the same time she is eager to complete her college dream. Facing a pair of children, Liu Liping firmly said, "Children are all the same. As long as you study hard, it's just selling iron, and I will also provide you with university and knowledge. " Throughout the summer of 2005, Liu Liping was busy with farm work, and her main task was to borrow money everywhere to make up her daughter's tuition. Finally, the day before my daughter started school, I borrowed enough tuition and my daughter entered school smoothly.
In 2006, my son Dong Zhang was successfully admitted to Zhangye Experimental Middle School. The burden on Liu Liping's shoulders is heavier. But she firmly believes that as a mother, as long as the child can grow up healthily and become a useful person to society, it is worthwhile to pay more, suffer more and be tired again!
Wandering again and again, being strong again and again, I took Liu Liping through more than ten difficult trips in spring, summer, autumn and winter. She left her hope to her children, and left her efforts and all the hardships and tiredness to herself. In her perseverance and optimism, Liu Liping saw hope, found confidence and realized the self-worth of an excellent mother. She used her ten years' efforts to write a capitalized "mother". (Fu, Yu)
