Before I came to Baoquanling, my home was in a remote mountain village in Muling City. Father chose to stay there because of the famine in 1960. My father worked hard in Jixi coal mine, and my mother and brothers and sisters were not full and warm. He thinks that as a man, he must take responsibility and support his wife and children, so he resolutely quit his job and went into the mountains. I remember he often proudly said to his neighbors, "Tree! If you are poor, change it. As long as you are diligent enough in this mountain, you won't let your wife and children starve. This step is right. " However, this decision is a great test for the mother who has never suffered or been tired of the landlord, but for the sake of her brothers and sisters, her mother has also entered the mountains. She said that she had entered a forgotten world of Tao Yuanming.

My mother died when I was thirteen. In my impression, my mother is a beautiful, delicate and determined woman.

My parents have no education, which was very common in their time. But the difference is that my father is more pragmatic. He thinks it is more practical for us to spend money on books, cooking lamps and waxing. It is better for us to dig wild vegetables in the mountains and feed more pigs to fill our families. So eldest brother was forced to drop out of school after reading only the second grade. My mother is more open-minded. I hope we can learn more culture and have our own ideas. Therefore, she secretly supported eldest brother's self-study, which contributed to his life experience of becoming the cultural curator of the town. It is precisely because my parents have different ideological realms that my childhood was spent in their quarrels. But I will never forget the education and love they gave me in their own way.

Father is very clever. He will try something new once or twice. Woodworking, bricklayer, blacksmith's father can do it. He is the best at making tofu, and 200 families in the village eat tofu made by his father. Thanks to my father's efforts, our life in the mountain village is very practical. This also makes many village women admire. At this time, the mother usually said modestly, "He knows everything and is loose." My mother is also a very smart and intelligent woman. I was surprised to find that when she was in the third grade, she could read my words without education. She usually tells the truth in one sentence and solves the grievances of those boring village women. She often tells us: there is no hope of relying on others forever to be self-reliant, self-reliant and self-loving; I always want to know more in life, so I have to work hard. Only by climbing can I see far. How to achieve the goal of climbing high and looking far? Then take Wan Li Road and read thousands of books; Only by constantly expanding our knowledge can we be open-minded and become an atmosphere without haggling over everything; People should know how to feel, be grateful and be willing. Only in this way can we support our parents with filial piety, be honest and clear-minded, be diligent in managing the family, be skillful in learning, be deaf and stop slandering, be pure and far-sighted, be cautious in speaking, encourage patients, study with interest, doubt ignorance, promote morality with self-reproach, keep courtesy with sincerity, treat people with enthusiasm, make friends without seeking much solution, respond to the world with compassion and dispel doubts with wisdom.

Mother asked us so, and she did the same. She set an example for us with practical actions. I want to behave and do things according to my mother's instruction.
