Learning the Book of Songs can speak, and learning the Book of Changes can calculate hexagrams.

Don't laugh at my ignorance It turns out that "learning the Book of Songs can speak, and learning the Book of Changes can calculate divination" is a common saying. I found it on Baidu. I only learned this sentence yesterday, from a 94-year-old illiterate rural old lady.

Yesterday, my daughter went back to her hometown to visit her grandmother and grandmother. Wechat told me that she chatted with her grandmother and sent me this sentence from the old man in words, expressing her amazing feelings about the old man's language.

The old lady is my husband's grandmother and my mother-in-law's grandmother. A woman who knows the truth and general ideas. She has three sons and four daughters. So her grandchildren have a total of 17 children, and now they are married. My father-in-law is her eldest son, and my husband is the eldest of these ten children, so I became her granddaughter-in-law, and she loves me very much.

In the second year of marriage, my grandfather died of illness and my grandmother began to rotate family life. A son lived at home for a month. She likes coming to my husband's house best because I am with her. Grandma was hard of hearing early, so she talked to her loudly. No one else wants to talk to her more, and I don't dislike it, so grandma often takes my hand and recalls her past. With the growth of age, the old man is more immersed in memories, and she will talk about the past repeatedly. I will smile and listen to her stories patiently, over and over again.

After I gave birth to my daughter, my grandmother helped to look after the children. The bags and cotton-padded clothes used by my daughter when she was a child were made by my grandmother. Grandma does needlework skillfully and beautifully. Cooking is a good cook, and it is done in different ways. Comparatively speaking, the mother-in-law is much weaker. I buy clothes for my grandmother every season, and the old people always show them off in the street. She thinks I bought it well. Now she is still wearing the clothes I bought, telling everyone about me and praising me.

More than ninety people are in good health and eat more than me. Occasionally, the elevator stops working, so she can climb eight floors. I can also pedal a tricycle to pick vegetables in vegetable fields. Practicing squatting and kicking every day, she said that people should get old first and exercise more. Idle and sleepy, the old man took the insole. Flatten yourself with cloth and paste, dry it, cut out insoles, and sew beautiful patterns with colored threads. She only gave my family three stitches, and none of the other grandchildren did. Nowadays, people seldom put their insoles on shoes, so she left all the insoles she gave us, and each pair has more than a dozen pairs. Every stitch is grandma's love for us.

I used to take my children home with her every weekend, and I would definitely go to my hometown for the holidays. Since my husband changed his mind and remarried, I have never been to the home where I stayed for twenty years. I will ask my daughter to go back and visit the old man for me. Grandma misses me very much. My daughter told me that every time I go home, my grandmother will wear reading glasses and ask to see me in the photo of her daughter's mobile phone. She will be relieved to see that I am fat. She told her daughter a lot about me and my daughter. I forgot many little things, but she remembered them all.

The daughter said that her grandmother asked her how many years she would graduate from college, and her daughter said two years. The old man said that she would live a good life until my daughter graduated and worked. I can't help crying after hearing this. Grandma, I know you always love and miss me. I want to be with you, but I am helpless. Only let the children have time to visit you more. May you live a long life.
