In the past two days, a video of "a 96-year-old mother and a 65-year-old daughter dancing together" became popular on the Internet. In the

video, 96-year-old Grandma Hu was chanting the beat in her mouth and dancing to the music. This beautiful and warm picture has attracted netizens' praise: a beautiful life has nothing to do with age.

Years have never defeated the beauty. What kind of old man is this, still maintaining such elegance?

Today, Qianjiang Evening News reporter contacted Grandma Hu and her youngest daughter Chen Shanfei. In the past two days, Chen Shanfei just brought Grandma Hu from Zhuji to her home in Hangzhou.

In Chen Shanfei's eyes, her mother is extroverted, showing optimism and open-mindedness from the inside out, as well as a delicate perception of life.

"Since my father passed away, I was afraid that she would be lonely, so several of us children took turns to take my mother to live in. When we were at the Zhuji elder sister's house, my mother often participated in community activities with my elder sister, and the video was taken at that time."

】Life is very ritualistic

Children can eat birthday noodles cooked by their mother every year on their birthdays

This 96-year-old grandmother is named Hu Wanxuan, and her name is very literary.

Grandma Hu is a 5-year-old from Jinhua HTML. She graduated from Jinhua Simple Normal University (the predecessor of Zhejiang Normal University ). She is from a scholarly family and her parents are both intellectuals.

When she went to school, she also studied music, art and dance in addition to cultural courses. So in addition to dancing, Grandma Hu also has many kinds of musical instruments, and can take on everything from erhu and accordion .

After graduating from normal school, Grandma Hu worked as a teacher in Jinhua, taught in elementary school, and taught in literacy classes. In 1957, Grandma Hu met her husband Chen Li, who was also a teacher, through her classmates.

Chen Shanfei said that his father was from Zhuji. After his mother married into Zhuji, she continued to be a teacher at Shibi Hutian Primary School at that time. Later, due to job changes and having to take care of the children, Grandma Hu quit her job, put down her teaching chalk, and learned to buy Tie Shao.

"My mother is very awesome. She can't do anything, so she just learns the same thing. In the era of material poverty, she still raises five of our brothers and sisters very well." Speaking of her mother, Chen Shanfei's tone exudes a sense of pride.

What impressed her was her mother's sense of ceremony. Even now, Grandma Hu remembers every child’s birthday clearly.

On your birthday, a bowl of birthday noodles and two eggs will definitely be indispensable. Nowadays, every year during the Chinese New Year, Grandma Hu will prepare red envelopes for everyone in the family in advance. There are 25 people in the family, and each of the 25 red envelopes is a lot. "When receiving the red envelopes, everyone lined up. My elder brother-in-law is 70 years old this year, and he still has a red envelope. The scene is a bit funny and warm."

Whether it is life or study, Grandma Hu's influence on her children is like a gentle breeze, slowly permeating in subtle influence.

Under the words and deeds of his parents, Chen Shanfei, five brothers and sisters, three of them became university professors and high school teachers. In that era, it was no longer easy for a family to produce three college students.

Chen Shanfei worked at Zhejiang University of Science and Technology before retirement. She smiled and said, "Now, most of the time we meet at home are teachers."

] Optimism and open-mindedness are revealed from the inside out

and a "girl heart" that loves beauty

In early 2020, my father passed away. I was afraid that my mother would be alone, so my children discussed taking Grandma Hu to live in the house in turn.

Last year, my eldest daughter took Grandma Hu to the calligraphy class of the community senior citizen university. Unexpectedly, Grandma Hu fell in love with her all at once. She practiced her calligraphy well and received praise from many classmates.

This year, the eldest daughter went to Dongsheng Community to learn dancing and brought her mother with her. During the intermission, Grandma Hu danced her youthful dance, attracting everyone to watch.

"Although my mother is old, I remember the movements and music scores of her youth. She has a strong sense of rhythm and even dances better than us."

Every time I pick my mother up at home, my younger daughter Chen Shanfei will sleep with her mother. After living with my mother, I have more opportunities to chat.

Sometimes the two of them are bedridden and have a heart-to-heart talk. Chen Shanfei then realized that "there are too many things in his mother's head", and chatting with her is particularly interesting.

"My mother's memory is amazing. She remembers all the songs she has learned before. "The past two days, Grandma Hu is still memorizing the texts she learned in elementary school and describing the poems about West Lake .

Grandma Hu, who loves dancing, singing and writing, reveals optimism and open-mindedness, as well as her perception of life from the inside out. Just when the reporter was chatting with Chen Shanfei, Grandma Hu would interfere and ask a few words from time to time: "What day is today? Is it going to cool down?"

Now Chen Shanfei takes Grandma Hu with him when he visits a friend's house. The old man is not afraid of being angry. He becomes familiar with two or three sentences, but his ears are a little unreliable. "My friends are all envious of me. My mother can be with me, and many elderly people are not willing to come out." Chen Shanfei said.

Chen Shanfei said that the mother of this age still loves all beautiful things and is full of curiosity about many things. "For example, when she saw a flower on the side of the road, she would ask us: What kind of flower is this? She sat on the balcony and looked at the hill opposite, and would ask, where is the other side of the mountain?"

In addition, Grandma Hu also has a "girl heart" who loves beauty, and she must dress herself up carefully when she goes out every day. When she saw her younger generation applying nail polish, she thought it looked good and asked her daughter to apply it on herself.

"The old saying goes, if you have an old family, you will have a treasure. Mom is our big baby. You can accompany your mother to grow old slowly as a blessing for your children."
