    ? Chapter 17 "Apple is produced in four seasons, and the years will never return¡ªApple that travels through the timeline"

    ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª

    My favorite fruits are bananas and crispy pears, but apples still have an indissoluble bond with me, and they have traveled through my growing years¡ª¡ª

    Inscription

    ?From the perspective of Chinese medicine, apples are warm in nature and are the most common fruit in daily life. They are also suitable for all ages. There are almost no taboos against food.  Even in English, there is a well-known proverb: an apple a day keeps the doctor away. Emphasizing that an apple a day keeps the doctor away can keep you healthy, which is enough to show that apples are exquisite foods that do not respect borders.

    £¨1£©Grandpa¡¤Apple that travels through childhood

    My grandfather was an out-and-out farmer. He opened up fields in a small village in Changwu County, and he had a good harvest.  The old man is very diligent, planting vegetables, planting trees, plowing land, raising chickens he is not far behind in everything!  But what grandpa is most proud of is the apples he planted with his own hands.

    Dad often boasted that the apples that grandpa planted were big and sweet!  Every year, I have to "bag" myself.  I really don¡¯t know much about this professional knowledge. I only know that my father often returned to the village after he joined the work. The father and son bagged the apples with their own hands, as if they had returned to the past

    "The apples grown by your grandfather are very delicious! When I was a child, I used to push a shelf cart and went to the county town to sell them!" When mentioning the apples of my grandfather, my father was always so happy, and he would tell me about his childhood.  story¡­¡­

    "When I was young, the conditions were not good, and the dormitories in our school were full of Datong shops. Once you go to the toilet at night, as soon as you come back, there will be no place for you!"

    "Once I was lying on the grass to sleep, but when I woke up, I found that my body was covered with bugs! I quickly stood up and walked around hard for a long time before I got rid of it."

    "Your aunt, my second dad and I all love to eat apples, and the plums that your grandfather planted are picked directly from the tree, rubbed with the soil, and you can eat them right away!"

    In childhood memories, Apple is indeed often associated with grandpa.  Because the apples I grew up eating were almost all grown by my grandpa!  Every year when the apples are ripe, grandpa will send his father back home with the apples he planted himself.

    At that time, our family never bought apples, and apples can be called a flooded food.  Especially when I was in college, I would carry a schoolbag of apples on my back every week when I went back to school, which was really a bit of a joke.  Even though the school has five fruit shops, I still work so hard every week!

    But my dad still had a plausible argument: "Since I have them at home, why buy them again? Besides, these apples are all your grandpa's wishes!" However, this kind of apple disaster will disappear after grandpa's death.

    Suddenly I don't get used to it, especially when I buy apples now.

    Grandpa's apples have been with me until my freshman year.  Because after I entered junior high school, I was busy with my studies year by year, and I seldom went back to visit his old man.

    But when I was a child, it was my grandpa and grandma who took me.  So Grandpa's apples, in a real sense, are only frozen in my carefree childhood.

    Before his old man passed away, every time our grandparents and grandchildren chatted on the phone, my grandpa always smiled and said in dialect: "Niuniu, are our apples delicious?"

    "It's delicious!" I always answer like this.  Although the apples at that time were not fresh enough, they lost their flavor.  But the most commendable thing, as my father said, is grandpa's heart.

    Grandpa, thank you

    (2) Dad¡¤Apple through the student days

    My dad may be different from the average man, he is more careful than a woman, and he doesn't smoke or drink.  My mother often teases that she is my "dad", but I have to admit that my father's carefulness always makes people feel warm.

    Dad also loves to eat apples. At one o'clock every day, he basically eats two or three fruits, and he will definitely peel them himself!  I also carefully prepared two fresh-keeping bags, and put the other two apples that were peeled by the way, naturally for me and my mother.

    Especially when the weather is cold, Dad will dry the apples on the balcony in advance, and wash them several times. Only after meeting his hygiene standards can he enter the eating process.

    But my dad¡¯s care is far more than that. Every night when I was in school, he would peel two apples for me, or an apple and a pear, cut into small pieces, and soak them in a bowl filled with hot water.  and prepared to serve a small fork, and brought it to my room in person, and tried not to disturb me who was so busy.

    I was really busy at that time, and I only had two words in my mind: study study study!  !  !

    Like the classmates who were struggling to sprint for the college entrance examination at that time, I oftenI was so obsessed with studying that I even forgot to drink water!

    As a father who has been there, he can naturally understand the nervousness of racing against time!  In order to avoid delaying my study time as much as possible, he came up with this way of eating fruit that saves me the most effort.

    Thank you very much for my father's fruit set!  But I'm also very embarrassed, and I still often forget to eat!  I have to let the most "restless" mother often come in and urge me to eat apples.  Even sometimes, she couldn't stand it anymore and had to feed me herself!  During this process, I was so busy that I didn't even have time to look at my mother, let alone go out

    Alas, thinking about it now, I feel more and more funny or guilty: Hey, are you really that busy?  Just because of such a short period of time, don't you even have time to accept your parents' wishes?  Just because of a study, can't you even squeeze out the time to visit your grandpa?

    (3) The "apple" that I will never get again

    There is a song called "Where Has the Time Gone", which is deeply touching, tear-jerking, and popular all over the country.  From the perspective of parents, it tells the complicated feelings of joy and emotion when their children grow up

    So, let me answer out of my personal opinion: Compared with the seemingly busiest students, it is the adults who have entered the society who really lack time.

    Adults who have left their status as students, after living independently, miss the days of being with their parents even more!  Every time I go home, it is a happy family reunion; after a few years, when these adults start a family and have children, they will follow the old path of their parents, hoping to protect their children's growth,  Looking forward to my children growing up soon

    But sometimes, I don't want him (her) to grow too fast!  Because once the children grow up, they have to be the same as they were back then, they have to leave them and be independent from home!

    But this is another cycle!  These children who are bound to grow up, just like their rebellious parents back then, have not been able to cherish the precious time with their loved ones at their young and ignorant age.  I always think: hum, I want to grow up quickly, and I want to break free from the constraints of my parents!  But it is not until they have entered the age of parents that they can deeply understand the love of parents, because in a blink of an eye, heh, they are also parents.

    The relationship between parents and children is really fair!  Is it "tit for tat"?  What you owe your parents, you may still not be able to repay in this life; but your children will definitely let you understand everything your parents gave to bring you up.

    Of course, don't be reconciled, because your children will also experience your state of mind when they become adults. This is the constant cycle of human society

    Just like the apple that travels through the timeline.

    It not only bears the father and grandpa's time of father and son who were short of material but warm and harmonious in that era, but also precipitates the slightly short but unforgettable time of grandparents and grandchildren between me and grandpa. It is also recording that my father and I are getting less and less  The father-daughter time that is also cherished more and more.

    Today, apples are plentiful and there are four seasons, as if the flowers are similar every year.  But the past time is gone forever!  After all, every year is different, let alone the apples grown by grandpa?

    Time, please, can you slow down a little bit?
