When people are old, they have no ability to speak.

What kind of scene is it when people reach their old age? What do you need to prepare for yourself to make your later life happier? This may be a question that every middle-aged person will think about.

He who has no long-term worries must have near worries. Many people begin to prepare for their old age after middle age, hoping that they can spend a happy and peaceful old age. In the eyes of most people, talented people in their youth and successful people like them must be very happy in their later years, right?

Uncle Zhong was brilliant when he was young, but he didn't expect to go through all kinds of hardships in his later life. Now he tells his own story and sends out the truest feeling: no matter how brilliant you are when you are young, it is not easy to get old. Why did Uncle Zhong say that? What kind of story happened to him? We continue to look down.

My surname is Zhong, and I am 75 years old. I live in Changsha, Hunan Province. When I was young, I knew a little craft, worked in a woodworking factory, and occasionally took some private jobs to earn some extra money. Therefore, my family conditions are still very good. Thanks to his silent support behind his back, his wife gave birth to two daughters and a son. My wife has a good personality, especially in housekeeping, and takes good care of children and the elderly, which also makes me.

When I was young, it was a happy thing to have a stable job. After all, it was a problem to eat and wear warm clothes at that time. In our family, we never worry about money. At that time, neighbors could only eat meat on holidays, and our family ate big fish and meat every week. They all envy me very much.

Perhaps few people know about the job of carpenter. In people's minds, it may be thought that carpenters are coolies. In fact, there are many kinds of carpenters. I am particularly famous for doing all kinds of carpentry near our home, so people in the factory invited me to work there at that time.

It is also because of this job that I can have some opportunities to study abroad, and I have learned a lot since then. Later, because of his excellent skills, he was promoted to be an official, that is, he supervised the work of others and occasionally gave guidance. When he met a big list or an important list, he would do it himself.

I usually go to work very easily, eight hours a day. In addition to these eight hours, I will pick up some private jobs around to subsidize my family. When the family got married, they would hire carpenters to make furniture outside, and even ordinary families at that time had a full set of handmade furniture.

Therefore, it is not difficult for me to make money. As long as I want to do it, a steady stream of people ask me to do it. After all, I am famous. They think the furniture I made is beautiful and will invite me back. Sometimes, when I am busy, they even ask me to do it at a higher price.

I was busy almost every day at that time. When I got home from work, I was almost busy until eleven or twelve. I have worked hard to create better conditions for my wife and children, and I am naturally happy to see my family happy.

I have worked in a furniture factory for so many years, during which many partners asked me to discuss running a furniture factory with me. At that time, I felt that life stability was more important and I didn't want to toss it again. But after retirement, I found that doing some manual work by myself every day was not only tiring, but also meager income. So I came up with the idea of opening my own furniture factory. After consulting with my wife and family, I opened a furniture factory with my savings over the past few years. At first, my business was deserted, and as my fame grew, my business got better and better.

I don't expect this furniture factory to bring me much effect. I just hope it can bring me some living allowance, enough for my family.

I think I am a happy person, with a happy family and three particularly promising children. The eldest daughter has excellent academic performance. After graduating from college, she began to study for a doctorate and later went abroad to study. Now she is married and has children. Her husband is an overseas Chinese, and a family of three has settled abroad and can only go home once a year.

The second son is also very promising. He stayed at school after graduating from college. Later, after all kinds of research and study, I now teach in a key university. He is very busy at ordinary times and even works overtime on holidays. Occasionally, my wife and I cook and let him come back for dinner. He has no time.

The youngest is my daughter, and our whole family dotes on her, which also forms her arrogant character. In ordinary life, he is particularly headstrong. As long as she wants to do something, no one can stop her The only thing that makes me angry is her married life. After graduating from college, she entered an internship in a company, and later fell in love with a poor boy who was internship.

My wife and I are against it. They are together and think that the man's family conditions are too bad. I didn't expect them to live together secretly until I got pregnant. I have to admit that they are together.

Because all three children have their own lives, my old age is very bleak and I feel indifferent to my family. I often complain at home, and I didn't educate my children well when I was young, which made them seldom care about me when I was old, but my wife always comforted me and told me to relax. Young people and old people think differently, and both want to play with their own careers, otherwise it's normal to stay with us all the time, as long as we live well by ourselves.

After listening to my wife's persuasion, I feel a lot of comfort. After all, living together between young people and old people will also have conflicts with the market, so that a sense of distance will increase affinity and prevent them from making noise. Just like my wife and I live alone, my old age will be more peaceful and comfortable.

But there are still joys and sorrows, especially the elderly. Who knows what will happen tomorrow? The sudden death made me sad. I feel that my days are falling day by day. In fact, he has always been in good health. I don't know why he suddenly got that serious illness. I have always regretted it. If I had cared more about him, these things would not have happened.

At that time, when she was resting at home, she kept telling me that her heart was very painful. I thought she didn't have a good rest and let him lie in bed. But in the middle of the night, he couldn't stand the pain. I quickly tried to call a car to take her to the hospital, but after arriving at the hospital, the rescuer finally left me a few hours later.

Half a month after my wife left, I was ill and depressed all day. I want to follow my wife. During that time, the children agreed to take turns to take care of me. After my body slowly recovered, they began to live independently, which made me feel the indifference of my family again.

After my wife left, I didn't continue to run my own furniture factory, so I closed down. Because my wife was gone, my life lost its color. In fact, during this period, I also recalled my life and felt that I had worked hard all my life. In the end, there is nothing, especially children. When they were young, I tried my best to meet their various requirements, even if I couldn't bear to eat or drink, I would buy them the best things.

In fact, there are many people of their age and their family conditions are very poor. After junior high school, their family conditions were so poor that they finally had to drop out of school and go out to work. For my three children, while ensuring food, clothing, housing and transportation, I try my best to let them finish their studies and give them the best teaching environment.

In fact, what people need most in old age is companionship, but these three children are particularly indifferent to their families because of my pampering. Although they will send me living expenses in turn, I don't feel warm. This is not what I need at all.

I hope they can go home often, and I hope they can spend more time together instead of some material supplies.

In fact, there is an old man who lives worse than me, an old neighbor of mine. He was in poor health and used to live with his wife. Since his wife died, he has been unable to take care of himself and has to go to his children's home to support the elderly.

However, when the old man was young, he preferred boys to girls, so after his wife left, he gave all his property to his son, thinking about living by his son in the future, but his son was a hen-pecked wife and could not be the master at home.

After he moved to his son's house, he suffered from indifference and was sometimes insulted by his daughter-in-law. In fact, all this was seen by my son, but his cowardly character did not dare to defend his old father. At first, my son would talk to his old father, but every time he was picked up by his daughter-in-law, his wife would have an attack after a long time.

The old neighbor was harmed by the traditional idea of raising children to prevent old age, but he didn't leave himself a way out. He thought that as long as he gave all his property to his son, he would naturally take care of her. He didn't expect his son to be very happy when he received the money, and he would eventually be controlled by his wife, and his life in his later years was miserable.

To please his daughter-in-law, he spends his pension every month. Give it to them, but he has paid so much for his children, and now he has not got any return. He told me that he is old now and doesn't have enough to eat every day, but his daughter-in-law cooks according to her own taste every day and never takes care of the elderly.

Especially when he is sick, he hopes that his son can take him to the hospital, but his daughter-in-law thinks that going to the hospital is a waste of money. He also said that it is normal for people to get sick when they are old. Sometimes they just buy him some painkillers at the hospital. Every time I say this, my old neighbor is in tears.

Compared with him, I think I am a happy person. Although my children didn't accompany me, at least I wasn't abused. Only to find that getting old is really miserable. My old neighbor and I are not alone. Of course, what I look forward to most in my later years is having children with me, which may never meet my requirements.

In fact, when people get old, with the deterioration of physical function, their physical condition is not as good as before. If they want to live a happy old age, they should make preparations in advance, plan their future and don't blindly rely on their children. Maybe they have their own lives and can't take care of their parents.

As Uncle Zhong said, even if you are beautiful when you are young, you will be miserable in your old age, because once you are old, you will lack the ability to create value, you may be excluded from life, and sometimes you will be insulted if you slow down.

However, the elderly should keep a healthy mind, think more about themselves and try to live a peaceful old age.
