Today, our baby has stepped in 1-year-old(lunar year旧暦)
It is too fast, even we couldnot look back. Maybe we see him everyday, and couldnot focuse on his change. In the past year, we just know that he has been about 8kilograms and 74cms long.
Today, we celebrated his birthday for him. I said, maybe at his the 90th birthday celebration, we couldnot appear again. I wish he could look this the 1st birthday photos when he has growed up. And he has more sweet feeling when he read them.
Happy birthday, our baby!
This is an article for me to remember my grandfather. It mightnot be suitable for everyone. If you have some unhappy while you read or after you read it, please stop, and listen my sorry for you.
On Sunday(2011-12-11), it was 4-16degree that day, with very cold and strong wind that day, some of my plants were pushed down by strong wind before(It made our baby get a cold after coming back home) .
We held our grand father's funeral on Sunday(2011-12-11). Although over 80, according to our tradition, on his funeral we donot need to cry, just normally keep your emotion, this is called smile-funeral.
Now, time has passed 2 days. but his face is still showed in front of my brain. His last imagine when we visited him in the senior-caring room, he was with full satisfiction hanging his face, thin but with brave, he seems to be full of brave to go to another world, there, it seems that a lot of his relations, friends have arrived and waiting for him.
Because of his high long life, he has become the longest life person in his village, although he could enjoy the beautiful world, his lonely feel still grown. He was always missing them. When I think of this, I feel very sad too. It is not easy for an old man to insist his living. We arenot the same aged with him, he was lack of recalling field.
...
I still couldnot forget his crying when I was a naughty kid; I still couldnot forget that he taught me history from books and from his brain when I slowly grown up; I still couldnot forget his caring when I faced some difficulties; ... his happiness in my wedding festival; his joyful when I told him my son's born(he was the 2nd person that I told)...I have faced many people leaving me, but this time is very different. Maybe because my lovely grand father really taught me a lot in my life, maybe at the same time I am becoming old... being old would like to recall, would like to think, would like to be fear death...
I donot know how long the road I could go in the future. But one I think my lovely grand father has given to me, that is "Although someone has died, he is still alive; although someone is still alive, he has died."(one of our proverb: 有的人虽死犹生； 有的人虽生已死。)

I scare the ring call in the midnight. When the ring dingding, my nervious will make me shake.
Last midnight, about 12:30am, our phone call dingding. I have some fearness. That is it. My cousin told us our lovely and respected grandfather has passed away. Although he was 94-years-old and have just enjoyed his birthday last month, we still keep the sadness in our deep heart.
He was a country's boy, and he just learned about 5 years in country village's traditional school(私塾), then was holding a mind of fighting for life, he went to our locating city to work. At that year he was 12. From a learner to being a tailer(making a suit（洋服）) at his 17, at about 25, he became a quite famous tailer in our local. In order to do business with Japanese, at his early 20, he has learn a lot of Japanese and could have a quite good communciation with them...
During the world war2, he said he often get the kicking by foot by those occupiers. At the eve of the ending of the war, he got a news from one of his friend and borrowed 12yuan(銀元)to buy what?- a great deal of text-books written by our own language(those occupiers ordered people just study their language.), but just as wasted paper by those occupiers, at very low prices. After the war's ending, new government rebuilded the new educiation system, but new books couldnot be printed or carried very soon from chongqing so far, then those old text-books have very good function then they could be sold a quite high prices than as wasted paper. He got success. He successful became a book store owner. But life was still tough...
After the whole family's full hard working, he saved some money, he brought 30liang(about 1.5kilogram) gold and bought a whole building-3 floors green-blocks building at Peking road(北京道) of our local. He had 8 kids and just 1 wife. He not only afford of his family, but also wife's father and mother, wife's sister's family's, his brothers and sisters. Could you imagine that now, how a big pressure for him. He and his family saved every dime for others, living tough life, just for his relationship.
After (19)49's, he handed over his shop. From a boss to a worker. And at the same time, not only those local managers gave him a lot of controlls, but also some who have gotten a lot of from him betray him and did some hurt for him. In order to show some opinions to those managers at that time, he had to be trapped...
Even at 70's, he was apporaching to retirment age(60), he drived the tricycle(sometimes he drived for carrying people, sometimes drived for carrying some goods) on the street, facing hot, rain, or wind...
After his retirement, he went back to his hometown since 1980. His job was insteaded of by 1 of his son who came back from Hainan island(海南島). I insisted that his long life should thank for good air and water of hometown(but recently there was pollute as most of area in our area). He lived single(because he would have some arguement when he lived with my grandmother.) My grandmother passed away at the end of 80's, but at that time, the best was 2 of his daughts could be allowed to move back hometown, then he could have chances to got daughters and grand-sons caring oftenly...
We would visit him every 2or 4 weeks, but now I think, I should do this more often. Even when he was 90, he still cared the 2ancestrals, village's public followers, village's cultural room(at about his middle age of 80's). With his age growing, 2 times he slipped down. Then after his 90birthday party, we found a senior caring centre for him to live. 1st, he didnot like to. As in traditional mind, if you have kids, you lived in those centre, others would laught at you and you would be no faces. We have to communciate with him recycle and recycle...
Even when he lived in, he donot like to live with others. 1stly, he stayed in a 2 people's room; 2nd he order to move to a single room, he cared himself; 3rdly, we employ a man to help him wash his bowl and help him to enter toilet; 4thly, after about May day this year, he moved out single room to anther 2 men room and employer a full-time job middle-aged woman(she cared 4 seniors) for caring him; 5thly, at about September, he move to a single room again and employed a woman for caring him 1 to 1... till yesterday(2011-12-07)11:30pm. A lot of people said patience couldnot resist the cold of midnight.
When we met him at May holiday, he still could use stick to go across the road to a resturant to have lunch with us. I couldnot imagine several illness after that, would take him so far between us. Maybe as those doctors said, all his checking, no one could found any fatal illness reasons, his weakness was because of his orgin's being old. Luckly, he could enjoy his last birthday with us happenly. At our tradition, 1 who live over 70, we donot need to be sad for his leaving, just use laughing to support that he go to another world. There is no pain and hard...
What I want to learned Massage is 1stly for him, even now, I will work hard to master it more better, to serve more person who need it. That is my new aim...
