Grandpa's life

"It is difficult to strike while the iron is hot." This is a sentence that my grandfather often teaches me.

Grandpa is a very strong man, with a lot of skills and serious work. When he was young, he worked as a worker in a machinery factory. Later, he showed outstanding performance, was appreciated by the leaders, and was promoted to captain. Grandpa took a group of people to repair railways everywhere, and now many existing railways in Northeast China are repaired by Grandpa.

Grandpa performed very well, and the leader of the factory introduced him to my grandmother, my grandparents, and got married in this way.

Grandpa works hard, grandma is virtuous, and life is full of taste and hope. If nothing happens, life at home will get better and better.

On the contrary, my grandfather's brother is an alcoholic, and he is so addicted to alcohol that he has to be served. Grandpa's father died of illness again.

If grandpa doesn't go back to take care of his brother instead of his father, I'm afraid he will die soon, but going back means giving up his identity as a worker and his identity has changed since then.

In that society at that time, the status difference between workers and farmers was not a little bit. Farmers mean that they are old and have no retirement salary.

Grandpa is in a dilemma and can't think of a way to kill two birds with one stone. Finally, after a hard ideological struggle, he made a decision and returned to the countryside.

Grandpa said that he had hands and feet, and would certainly let his family eat, but he had no relatives and no reason to rely on him, so he took his family back to the countryside.

Because of his outstanding performance, grandpa made a lot of contributions to the factory. The leader repeatedly asked grandpa to settle down in his hometown in the countryside before going back to work. He also said that he was assured that the factory would always keep his files.

But grandpa can't bear to let grandma take care of the whole family, especially uncle, which is inconvenient and involves a lot. So when grandpa came back, he never went back to work in the factory.

Grandpa who works in the countryside is not willing to be mediocre. In order to make his family live a better life, he also used his spare time to transport wood, which is the kind of wood that is two people thick. It's tiring and dangerous for several people to shout their songs together, but grandpa has been doing it for more than ten years.

Grandpa never got rid of the problem of alcoholism and eventually died of alcoholism.

Whenever night falls, grandpa always squats under the window alone, often chanting: "I am worthy of my parents and my brother."

After grandpa left, grandpa still farmed in the countryside. Grandpa said this was his home and he would never leave.

Until grandpa was seventy years old, his leg ached and he could no longer do farm work. Grandpa, who is strong all his life, doesn't want to cause trouble to his children. He always wants to rely on himself. So he remembered what the factory leader said decades ago and said that he would leave a file for him. I wonder if it's true.

After several days and nights of thinking, grandpa decided to look for it in the provincial archives. If he finds it, he can live on a small salary without dragging his children down.

Files are not so easy to find, especially after decades, many people who know them have died, the factory has closed down long ago, and there is no way to know where the personnel relationship has been transferred. I really don't know.

Grandpa doesn't want to give up. He is a thoughtful person. He thought about it, but he still wanted to find it. He must prove his identity when looking for the file.

So grandpa rummaged through the old boxes at home. Fortunately, he found the marriage letter of introduction from the factory to his grandparents. It's a pity that the writing paper is yellow and the handwriting is illegible, which makes grandpa very worried.

I tried to go through other materials again, but I found nothing. There is only one way to go, that is, to gamble once.

With information, grandpa set foot on the road to the provincial archives. Although he took the first step, he didn't relax. He knows that the road is long and things will be more difficult in the future.

Sure enough, the staff refused to help me find it because I didn't know anyone and the information I brought was very vague. Grandpa knew that it was useless to use both hard and soft, so he didn't mention looking for files, so he chatted with the staff.

In this small talk, grandpa told the whole process of looking for documents. The staff learned the ins and outs of the matter and felt that Grandpa was not easy, so they decided to discuss it with the leader to see if they could help.

Fortunately, the leader saw that Grandpa was old and didn't come to make trouble, saying that he would help him find it.

Grandpa's surname is Feng, and his first name is.

Three or four staff members searched together for a long time that day, but they didn't find anyone named Feng. Grandpa refused to give up and said that he would find it himself. In order to make grandpa give up, the staff agreed. Less than an hour later, grandpa excitedly pointed to a place and said, "Found it! Found it! " The staff gathered around to check: "This is not you, Grandpa. It clearly says' Zou Guangtai'. How can it be you? "

Grandpa showed a calm look after hearing this and said slowly, "This is me. I can call, others can call, and his surname is Zou. "

The staff was even more puzzled and asked doubtfully: "Why can't you call him Guang Tai?"

"Because his name is Zou, the name is not disorderly. Who will take the word "gone"? " Grandpa said proudly.

As soon as the voice fell, the staff in the room burst into laughter and said that the old man was really humorous.

Grandpa went on to say, "The real character of Feng is Tan. Many people don't know this character. The earliest files were all handwritten, and later they were changed into electronic files. This word is similar to Zou, so I am afraid of recording mistakes when recording files. "

"The old man is not an ordinary person!" , everyone said.

Grandpa saw that things were promising and quickly said, "The name is not random. My eldest son is Feng Baijun, the king of hundreds of armies, and my second son is Feng Baiqi, the leader of the army. My two granddaughters, Feng Yu and Feng Xue, are flying in the sky, magnificent and romantic. "

These words made everyone present stunned and admired my grandfather. One of the leaders felt that Grandpa's speech was logical and rigorous, and he must be a reliable person. It is very likely that the file was recorded incorrectly. He immediately said that he would help to verify the matter in depth, on the one hand, to help grandpa solve the problem, on the other hand, he was completely curious about grandpa's guess.

After a week of multi-party investigation, data access and verification, the archives finally gave the answer, confirming that this file really belongs to Grandpa, and it can be confirmed that Grandpa is an employee of a machinery factory, which also conforms to the national regulations at that time and can be paid monthly.

Grandpa has worked hard all his life, and now he finally has a rest, but he still says to us younger generations, "We still need to be hard while we strike the iron." A sentence will be added later: "Diligence is the foundation of life."

Grandpa is not only a diligent man, but also a shrewd man. People should be diligent in body and mind when they are alive, shouldn't they?

Looking at grandpa's proud face and listening to his hearty laughter, I seem to have found a reason to run for my life.
