National Day is here. Even if there is a holiday, due to the epidemic, I cannot gather with my parents far away from home. I can only bring my deepest blessings to my two elders with respect in the words.
My parents and I
My father has always been "messed in other people's business" in this life, from being his grassroots "cadre" to now in his 80s, he is still a "guest host" in the wedding and white events of his neighbors. His powerful "speaking" style inspires and encourages two generations. This can be regarded as a "talking" labor.
No, others are old and never grow old. Using his catchphrase, he can be self-reliant and have enough food and clothing. This will not only exercise the body, but also have the satisfaction you want. For example, he has always been reluctant to give up his own acre of land, and always thought that the fruits produced by his own work are sweet, and he will not even feel at ease with his children. He will always worry about the crops he planted, and will do this and that.

drought and guaranteed recovery
Hard work pays off. Even though the drought is severe this year, he brought back the dying vegetables such as chili, cowpeas, eggplant... the joy of harvest.
We advised my dad to put down his work countless times, but he reluctantly agreed, but once he arrived in the countryside, his hands and feet were like being tied up by crops, and he would not lose his "farmer's rice bowl". In his spare time, he would pull up erhu to play solo, or pick up the fishing rod and walk to the river... Sometimes, he would also talk to himself, and he would have fun in his old age!
