An
old man went to live with his son, his daughter-in-law, and a four-year-old
grandson. The old man's hands trembled, his eyesight was very poor, and he
couldn't walk steadily (平稳地).
The family ate together nightly at the dinner table. But the elderly
grandfather's shaky hands and failing sight made eating rather difficult. Rice
often dropped on the floor.
The
son and the daughter-in-law became angry with the old man, so they put a small
table in the corner. There, the grandfather ate alone, while the rest of the
family enjoyed dinner at the table. Since the grandfather had broken a dish or
two, his food was served in a wooden bowl.
The
four-year-old son watched it all in silence. One evening before supper, the
father noticed his son playing with a piece of wood on the floor. He asked the
child sweetly, "What are you making?" The boy answered, "Oh, I am
making a little bowl for you and mama to eat your food from when I grow
up." The four-year-old son smiled and went back to work. The words struck
the parents so hard that they were in silence. Then tears started to stream
down their cheeks (脸颊).
Though no word was spoken, both knew what must be done. That evening the
husband took grandfather's hand and gently led him back to the family table.
