Chloé's hands-out equal pose美嘍外婆的故事中文以及配圖由美嘍本人提供,，作為這項(xiàng)活動(dòng)的發(fā)起者陶理在征得同意的基礎(chǔ)上，做了英文翻譯,，標(biāo)點(diǎn)符號(hào)和表達(dá)方式以及部分顏色的修改,，并且做了排版，也附上了自己的個(gè)人評(píng)論,。(there is some nice surprise you will see at the end of this post)一直堅(jiān)持打太極鍛煉的她前幾年滑倒讓她只能拄拐走路。去年又因不想打擾家人休息而再次跌倒,，股骨頭碎裂,，面臨95歲要換關(guān)節(jié)的難題，醫(yī)生說30%的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)可能下不來手術(shù)臺(tái),。突然感覺在腦海里對(duì)外婆的印象永遠(yuǎn)停留在小時(shí)候一直帶我去同濟(jì)大學(xué)三好塢坐在大樹上吃野餐的外婆,。不太喜歡用慈祥這種籠統(tǒng)的詞去形容一個(gè)面帶微笑看著小輩的年長女性。但我每次路過同濟(jì)三好塢都會(huì)想起小時(shí)候的那個(gè)春日的下午,，那個(gè)笑意盈盈的外婆,。我的外婆小時(shí)候是鄉(xiāng)紳家的小孩，家境富裕,。后來土改后家道中落,，父母雙亡只能過繼給叔叔家，叔叔不讓女孩再讀書,。于是倔強(qiáng)的外婆毅然選擇了免費(fèi)師范生,，背井離鄉(xiāng)，成為了一名幼兒園老師,，后因工作出色成為了當(dāng)?shù)氐膱@長,。期間和搞地質(zhì)研究的外公結(jié)婚，在懷我媽媽的時(shí)候正是幼兒園擴(kuò)園的時(shí)候,，由于太過勞累與醫(yī)療條件限制,，媽媽最后出現(xiàn)了嚴(yán)重的髖關(guān)節(jié)問題，成了殘疾人,，這點(diǎn)成為了外婆一輩子的愧疚,。再后來，外婆還是跟著來同濟(jì)大學(xué)做教師的外公從湖南調(diào)配來上海,，進(jìn)入少年兒童出版社工作,。最后因?yàn)槌煞诌€有編制的問題，成為了工人退休,，至今的退休工資也只有兩三千,。20幾年前外公罹患癌癥去世,，外婆從那個(gè)時(shí)候開始自學(xué)書法和國畫，之后書畫一直相伴身邊（放一張外婆在72歲畫的仕女畫）這張是美嘍外婆創(chuàng)作的藝術(shù)作品,，由美嘍提供,。作為沒有任何繪畫基礎(chǔ)訓(xùn)練的她，能靠老年大學(xué)與自己的練習(xí)達(dá)到這個(gè)程度,，非常令人吃驚！只要去外婆家,，她都會(huì)和我討論她的作品,，“永”字八法的秘訣，無論是她70,、80還是90,，直到90出頭，眼底出現(xiàn)問題,，才慢慢放棄了書畫,。外婆的一生經(jīng)歷過戰(zhàn)爭、不斷失去親人,、貧困,、子女身體殘疾、伴侶去世等等,。在她的生活里也好像永遠(yuǎn)在歌頌，畫仕女,、風(fēng)景,，講幼兒園的故事和幼兒教育法，撰寫經(jīng)典名家作品等等,。曾經(jīng)顛沛流離但永遠(yuǎn)仰面光蕓,，也許只有內(nèi)心的愛與希望能一直支撐著她。My grandmother is 96 years old this year. She has been exericising Tai Chi for many years but she slipped a few years ago, and now she could only walk with crutches. Last year she fell again because she didn't want to disturb her family when they were resting. She broke her femoral head. The problem of changing joints is that doctors say that ther is 30% risk that she may not survive in the surgery. Suddenly, I feel that the image of grandma in my mind have always been this: when I was a child, my grandma always took me to Sanhaowu in Tongji University, sitting under a big tree for a picnic. I prefer not to use the general word like 'kindness' to describe her smiling looking at a junior. But every time I pass by Tongji Sanhaowu, I think of my smiling grandmother at a spring afternoon.My grandmother was a child of a squire family when she was a little child. Her family were wealthy.After her parents died after the land reform, she was passed on to her uncle on her father's side.Her uncle refused to let girl (her) go to school anymore. She was stubborn so she chose to study normal education. (note: As normal student who will graduate and work as teacher does not need to pay tuition fee, so it is free education)After working as a kindergarten teacher, she became a local headmaster because of her excellent work. Then she married my grandfather who was engaged in geological research. When she was pregnant with my mother, it was the same time when the kindergarten expanded its size. Due to overwork and medical conditions, my mother eventually developed a serious hip problem and became a disabled person. This then has been my grandmother's guilt throughout her life.Later, my grandmother followed my grandfather who came to Tongji University as a lecturer.They migrated from Hunan to Shanghai. My grandma started to work in the Children's Publishing House. However, because of her family composition and the publishing units' limited place of formal employees, she retired as a worker as her career status. Till now, her retirement salary is only two or three thousand yuan.My grandfather died of cancer over 20 years ago. My grandmother then began to learn calligraphy and Chinese painting by herself. Since then, painting and calligraphy have been with her (attached her painting painted by a grandmother at the age of 72).This artpiece is painted by Chloé Wang's grandma As someone without any basic training in painting, all she can rely on is the Senior University, and she managed to reachthis level by keep practicing on her own. I would say it is very surprising! As long as I visit her at her house, she will be happy to discuss her work with me, like the secret of "永Yong" character in the calligraphy.Either in her 70, 80 or 90s, until in her early 90s, there is something wrong in her eyes, and then she had to slowly give up painting and calligraphy.Grandma's life has experienced war, constant loss of loved ones, poverty, physical disability of her children, death of her partner and other misfortunes.But one can hardly hear her complaining. In her life, she always prefers to sing and praise, painting ladies, landscapes, telling kindergarten stories and early childhood pedagogy, writing classic masterpieces in calligraphy, and so on. Once she was exuberant but she always look up. Perhaps only the love and hope in her heart can always support her. 
2019年的美嘍和外婆還有兒子一野君 Me, grandma and my son in 2019
我認(rèn)識(shí)美嘍有快五年時(shí)間了,，可每次和她交流都有驚喜,，會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)還有這樣的角度看待世界，覺得自己身心愉悅,，還覺得這個(gè)世界都變得更迷人可愛了一些,。Personally I have known Chloé for nearly five year, but still, everytime I talk with her, I will get some surprise, will find out there are more perspectives to see the world, not just I am feeling good, I feel the world is more adorable and lovely.我想應(yīng)該她的很多學(xué)生也有類似的感覺吧。美嘍把自己的人生都活成了藝術(shù),，而且她還毫不費(fèi)力地讓其他人看到了藝術(shù)的美好與能量,。I guess many of her students will agree with me: Chloé Wang is a person who lives her life like a fine art, and she can effortlessly let others appreciate the beauty and energy in art.
這次有幸得到她的這個(gè)分享，也讓我看到更深的一面,。I feel it is my great fortune to get her involved, giving me chance to see something in deep.感謝她的信任,，我們才可以知道她生命中還有一位傳奇的女性（我知道肯定還有更多）,。Thanks to her trust, we get to know there are some other lengendary female figure in her life ( I know for sure: there are more). 如果你也和我一樣很喜歡(*3)美嘍的話，我還想給你看這個(gè)：And if you like (*3) Chloé as I do, I also want to present this:
