One day, I was a guest at a friend's house and saw several elms planted in the yard.

I asked my friend why he planted elms in the yard.

The friend smiled and replied:? Elm is elm, which is homonym? Go to a cash cow? The more you plant in the yard, the more money you have. ?

I smiled and asked my friend curiously: Is there a scientific basis?

? There is no scientific basis, just what adults say. ? My friend stared at me with a sacred face and two eyes.

? Congratulations on your wealth and happiness for thousands of years. ? Looking at my friend's unquestionable expression, I followed his words and gave him my blessing.

Hey. It's incredible to believe this at this age. I laughed at this friend for being a bit pedantic.

Then I calmed down and thought about it. What this friend said also has his own truth. What he said was his expectation, his ideal and his dream. Who doesn't want to live a good life with money, unless he is a fool.

Speaking of elms, there are really many stories! In difficult times, elm leaves solved the hunger problem of many people. After school, groups of students, you run and I chase, you run and I rush, scrambling to get to the threshing floor. Because there are many elms around the barley field, the young leaves on the elms can be used as food, so we attract friends to touch the elm leaves here.

Whoever climbs the elm tree, willy-nilly. First, I put a handful of leaves in my mouth to chew. They are fragrant and sweet. When I was full, I smoothed a full schoolbag, slid down the tree with a swish, patted the elm leaves stuck to my body, put my schoolbag on my shoulder, and ran home to let my mother cook elm leaf rice. In this way, eat until the elm leaves can't be eaten any more.

Nowadays, although eating elm leaves has long been history, people have not forgotten the elm leaves that once filled their stomachs, because elm leaves have solved the urgent needs of that generation.

So, there is the above statement!

My friend's parents say elm is a cash cow, which makes sense to him. This is an expectation and yearning for a rich life!

My friend remembered his parents' teachings and took the elm tree for granted? Pay? A cash cow is also a longing for your bright future!

Thanks to the elm, it taught me a great truth about life.
