My mother left us forever without a word of response! What I was left with was immense sadness and pain. I endured my grief and tears and took care of my mother’s funeral in my hometown according to local customs. After the first seven days, I knelt down on my knees in front of my mother’s grave, kowtowed to say goodbye to her again, and trudged on the way home.

I drove for a full four hours over a distance of more than 500 miles. Perhaps it was difficult for me to accept the reality of my mother's departure for a while. The sad thoughts affected every bit of my mother's past. My mother's kind words kept lingering in my ears; my mother's bright smile kept coming to my mind; my mother's hard work always appeared in my eyes frame by frame! Suddenly, the same sad scene from seven years ago flashed through the depths of my memory - that was during the years when my loved one passed away. I used tears as ink and fingers as pen. After a day's work, when I was sad and grieving, I wrote "Ten Thousand Words Memoirs" to soothe the grief and trauma and express my grief at the same time. The same mood, the same way, different time and place, I seemed to have found a way to alleviate my grief and express my love for my mother in the days to come.

’s mother was born in 1949, before the founding of the People’s Republic of China, and is the same age as the mother of the motherland. It was precisely this birth date that created my mother's extraordinary life. In my memory when I was very young, my mother had long braids. She would occasionally catch up with other families in the same village to hold weddings, and my mother would occasionally tell me about their weddings at that time. I vaguely remember that he was ordered by his parents at that time, and the matchmaker's words, two buckets of grain, and nine feet of cloth were all entrusted with his life-long event! My mother said that the family she married into at that time was not the largest family name in the village, but it was more than enough to be ranked second. At that time, land was still collectively owned by production teams. According to my mother, my father was working in the village committee at the time, and he was basically not involved in all matters in the family. The head of the family made all the decisions. My mother was young at the time, had married from afar, and was a new member of this big family. She had to obey all arrangements. As time went by, she would inevitably be annoyed, embarrassed, suffered, and burdened by many things. But as long as it was within her ability to bear, my mother would rather endure more hardships and suffer more, and let it go.

Listen to the boss, obey the arrangements, tolerate more, endure more hardships, suffer more, and always think about being able to survive one day, but it never comes true. Even in this state, it can be regarded as a relatively "good" life! A sudden change suddenly pushed the family into "dire straits"! To be continued...
