I haven’t seen my grandpa for a long time, but I can still remember his kind smile. He is like an angel in my heart guarding me all the time.

When I was a primary school student, I lived with my grandpa for three years. Grandpa was always busy doing everything for me. Because he worked hard every day, he was very thin. He had gray hair and a wrinkled face which were the most reassuring things for me. He made a lot of delicious food for me every day, such as fried pork with chili, beef slices, and my favorite dish: braised pork.

Grandpa worked so hard every day. He cooked for me in the morning, took me to play at noon, and coaxed me to fall asleep in the evening.

Every time I was naughty, he educated me patiently. I always liked listening to my grandfather telling stories of Cinderella, and I thought Cinderella was pitiful. After I fell asleep, grandpa had to do housework.

Once, I wanted to play badminton, but the store which sold badminton rackets and shuttlecocks was very far from my grandpa’s house.

However, when Grandpa heard what I said, he went to buy them for me without hesitation. It was in the evening when he came back, but he didn’t complain but just touched my head with love.

Grandpa often took me to a market near his house where he used to buy some candies for me. On a summer day when I was walking to the market with him, I fell down accidentally and hurt my knees. Then my knees started bleeding and felt very painful.

Grandpa felt very sad and carried me on his back to the hospital at once. On the way, after some time, he was very tired because of my heavy body, but he struggled on. Finally we arrived at the hospital where the doctor treated my wounds.

After that, we went back home and Grandpa guarded and took care of me day and night until I recovered. Seeing his tired face, I felt very thankful as well as guilty for having brought him so much trouble!

Later, when I was 10 years old, my parents and I moved to Shenzhen. I began to go to school and grew up in Shenzhen. I miss my grandpa very much. Who else can be so nice and kind to me like Grandpa?
