Grandpa and grandma live in a community near Beibei's house. It is an old house with double rooms. It was earned by my grandpa when he was young in the early years. It is an old-fashioned pattern, with two different large rooms inside and outside, and a narrow and long aisle in the middle, which can only accommodate one person.

When they moved in, Beibei was still a child with a tall bench and would roll back and forth on the panel, rolling all over the flour. At that time, grandma's hair was still black, and the little girl couldn't stand steadily and would ask grandma for white hair to pull it out. Grandma was a landlord's lady, and she looked very beautiful when walking, and was different from everyone's grandma. Her arms would be placed on the back of her body, making her look elegant and beautiful, which made people very proud.

Grandma likes leather shoes with a little heel, which are as shiny as shoes that have not been sold in department stores. They are always combed neatly, as if she had touched osmanthus oil, and it was completely pressed on her head without any frizz.

One day, grandma suddenly wanted to sleep with grandpa, and these two willful guys really slept with separate houses, and the four children didn't say anything. That was respect and absolute authority as mothers.

Grandma is two years older than grandpa, and is born in the year of the tiger, and grandpa is born in the year of the dragon. It is exactly the same as saying that dragons and tigers have fought for life. There is always a reason why they can't understand, but they never quarrel, and each has their own way of survival.

"That weird old guy!" Grandma likes to say this. She will gently lift her eyelids, shaking her head disdainfully, saying this to her back, but grandpa has never heard of it before.

Perhaps it was because of genetic genes. Like grandma's mother, grandma began to forget things early. At the beginning, she just couldn't remember some small things and no one cared about them. Later, she began to be unable to tell the difference between her family, not remembering what day it was, nor did she remember having a meal just now.

Grandpa did not let anyone interfere, insisted on taking care of his grandmother alone, not living with any children, nor allowed anyone to come to the house to take care of him. He has always been in good health, no one needs anything, and he also picks up Beibei and his younger brother to and from school every day. The only problem is that his ears are not very good, and he can hardly hear what others say later.

Imagine what the silent world looks like. Beibei is always a little sad. It is difficult for ordinary people to understand. The children at home gradually lose communication with their grandfather because of this. He would move a stool alone and sit in a corner of the house. Watching everyone talking and laughing around grandma. Although he couldn't hear anything, he seemed to be able to feel it. He would follow Lele, without saying anything, but without leaving.

I remember that when my grandmother remembered, she always talked about the stories of her and her grandfather when she was young. She said that when they got married, she was only eighteen years old and her grandfather was only sixteen. On the day of getting married, my grandmother saw her grandfather who was shorter than her and less healthy than her. She disliked her and thought: "It's just such a child!"

But grandma said that grandpa was a responsible man. He always protected grandma no matter whether he went to work in the fields or later fled to famine. Their generation generally did not know what love was. Grandma said the most to grandma was hatred and complaint. Grandma gradually forgot Beibei, and then forgot Beibei's father. She forgot herself, forgot what name is, what is, and what is the difference. Later, no one could know what else she could forget, as if she had thrown away everything in this world, but she clearly remembered all the grudges between her and her grandfather when she was young. When she was a little clear-headed, she would tell others over and over again.

Like the TV series Chuangguandong, grandpa did everything a man should do, which was not all good. He and grandma also came from Chuangguandong, Hebei to Northeast China. They had done something outside. Grandma didn't know at home, and she never asked. Grandma just took good care of the family, cooked food and waited for him to come back to eat, and raised four children.

Grandma did a good job in needlework. For decades, she had sewed cotton coats by herself. Her needlework was famous among the neighbors on the streets. When she was a child, many people praised Beibei's cotton jacket, saying that stitching was rare and good at making stitches. She just smiled, never took on other people's work, and never said a single word. She did it for decades until she no longer remembered it.

Grandma loves to eat meat and drink, and she doesn’t have any wine or meat every day. Grandpa always buys meat and wine for grandma. As long as life is still good, buy some good things when it’s too much money, and make bulk wine when it’s too little money. Later, he can’t walk anymore and can’t go downstairs anymore. At that time, grandma also forgot about everything wine was.

Grandpa smiled and watched grandma eat meat and drink wine. After getting a little drunk, he complained a lot. At this time, grandpa didn't say anything, and went back to his hut alone, opened the semiconductor, and raised it to his ears. Perhaps this is the real reason behind his ears.

After my grandfather's ears, only Beibei will chat with him. Grandpa said Grandpa, and Beibei said Beibei.

"The central government has new regulations." Grandpa told Beibei loudly, as if she couldn't hear clearly.

"What is the central government stipulated?"

Beibei leaned over to grandpa's ear and shouted louder. Grandpa reached out to pat his ears, smiling so hard that his nose and eyes were squeezed together: "I can't hear clearly! Are you going to work?"

"Yeah! Yes!"

"Oh! It's a storytelling in semiconductors! Take it over and listen."

"Okay!" Beibei shouted and brought the semiconductor over.

Before he even entered the house, his aunt called again. My father quickly went over and picked it up, and his hands trembled uncontrollably. Everything that should come will come as usual, regardless of whether people can really bear it.

"Brother, you just left, dad can't do it."

My aunt watched her grandfather leave, which deeply stimulated her. She cried the most violently, and maybe she was also afraid. Grandpa seemed to just meet her relatives for the last time. For some reason, Beibei always felt this way, and then she didn't want so many people to watch her leave, so he held on and deceived everyone.

Beibei did not go to see her grandfather for the last time, and she was waiting in the inner room with her grandmother. The outer room was busy looking through the door of her grandmother's house. Through the narrow aisle, the lights were always breathless and dispensable, and they couldn't see clearly.

The ambulance came, and a few people in white clothes came down and ran to the sixth floor. They left without any rescue, and cried. Beibei turned around and looked at grandma. She smiled hard, thinking that she wanted to hide something, but grandma cried.

Although she forgot about things, she was not confused. The old lady was a lady from a big family. She straightened her back, lit a cigarette, sucked her lips twice, pursed her lips, swallowed her saliva, reached out to wipe her eyes, looked down at the traces of tears on her old fingers, and stroked them back and forth: "I think I can leave first!"

She seemed to be wronged. She twitched the corners of her mouth, not knowing whether she was laughing or crying, but she no longer recognized Beibei. She didn't know that the person sitting next to her was her granddaughter. She said: "The old man has left, I have been lying on it for a lifetime, but I have finally let me lie."

The next day, a monastery was set up in front of the building gate, and people came in and out of the room. Grandma didn't know what they were here for, so she kept asking where Beibei and others came from, why did they come to our house to make trouble. She forgot that her grandfather had left early in the morning, and she didn't care about the whirlwind of others at home. She just focused on making porridge in the kitchen.
