Chapter 170 A New Year's letter to the young readers of "Little Miao"

Dear children: Thanks to the comrades in the editorial department of "Xiao Miao" for allowing me to occupy the space of the 100th issue of "Xiao Miao" to write a letter of greetings to the children. Almost every day, I get several letters from children from all over the world. You either report everything about your study, work and extracurricular activities, or ask me how to write a diary, composition, etc., and sometimes the letters include A red scarf and the certificates or other calligraphy and paintings I got made me feel infinitely kind and warm.But my limited energy and time do not allow me to reply separately, so I can only thank and apologize together here!

I think you always write to "Grandma Bing Xin" but never tell me about your own grandpa, grandma or grandpa and grandma being with you.I know that your father and mother must be busy with work, and you must have grandpa, grandma or grandpa and grandma living with you.They must love you very much.They will help you with your homework, they will tell you many interesting stories, and they will help your parents with some housework.They must be very happy with you.But they are old, and they can be quite hard.You must honor them and take good care of them.Don't bother them with what you can do.

I recently moved, and I hung a banner of ten flower planting poems written by my grandpa on the wall of my new home.I look at it every day, and the sweet moments of my childhood living with my grandpa just pop up in front of my eyes!The time I lived with my grandfather was no more than two or three years, but the impression left on me was very deep.He is a very learned man, and he has good working and living habits.He loves me very much, and I love him very much.Following him, I learned many good habits: love reading, love labor, go to bed early and get up early, clean and tidy, etc.When he was tired from work or study, he tended flowers. He taught me a lot about how to grow flowers.He was a teacher, he often compared his students to flowers, and he himself was a diligent flower grower-gardener.One of his ten poems on planting flowers is:

It is easy to come to spring again in a year, and the old spring will be renewed in the past; I am afraid that the flowers will be missed in time, and I will be a teacher every year. It means that spring passes quickly every year. In order not to delay the youth of the students, I encourage myself to be a good flower grower-gardener every year. I think your grandparents and grandparents must have done work that is beneficial to the country and the people, and must have good experience and experience.You will learn many good things from meeting and talking with them.Cherish the time spent with the old people, knowledge is accumulated bit by bit like this!

It is "an easy year and spring comes again", I wish you a happy new year, and move forward healthily with time! Love your friend Bing Xin December 12, 1983
