第1段（英文）

The old man, living on a small island in Southeast Asia, moved to Taiwan to grow up. He and his mother used to live together in the mountains nearby. As he grew older, he often took care of him by teaching me how to read classical Chinese poetry and prose. One day, I was young enough to remember the story when we were reading a passage:
“独在异乡为异客，每逢佳节倍思亲”
“春草明年绿，王孙归不归”
“自在飞花轻似梦，无边丝雨细如愁”

These words made him smile and tell me how much I loved them. After some time, he realized that he was a small boy then and that these stories meant more than anything to him.

第2段（英文）

One day, I found myself in the family room while reading about his stories. The old man sat there with a smile on his face as the words made sense. He had saved up enough money for me to send him a message:
“Hello ping ping ping”
“Ciao ch Xiao xie!”

He wrote that he loved sending messages and said, “莺儿，你要管教好小李吗？”

第3段（英文）

His mother, after seeing the messages on his page, opened them for me. The paper had a beautiful, old墨梅 drawing of a red-and-yellow peony. She explained that the beauty in this flower was so significant because it reflected something about China.

This flower represented the spirit of the people who moved from the sea to land and back again. It showed that even though they faced challenges, they always stood strong for their country.

第4段（英文）

When I saw his message with this beautiful drawing, I smiled because it was not just a flower but a living testament to love and duty. The old man often reminded me of the lessons he had learned:

“Divide into parts when traveling or living abroad”
“Respect others as they are, even if they do not fit your ideal”

He said, “这朵梅花，没有多美言，但它的精神会令你难忘。”

第5段（英文）

This journey taught me that I was not just a person but an old man. The messages in his page showed that he cherished the memories of our family and believed in their beauty. One year later, when we returned to Taiwan, we all shared stories about this man:

“您是一个值得尊敬的人”
“I love you too”

第6段（英文）

The next day was a snowstorm outside his house. He packed his essentials into a hand-poured box and put it on the floor, but it rained heavily for hours before we finally got home.

His mother opened the box and found inside a beautiful hand-drawn drawing of this peony—a symbol of the spirit of the Chinese people.

第7段（英文）

As we walked back to our family van, he looked down at the paper with his parents’ faces. He said, “外公，这不仅仅是一朵梅花，它代表了什么？是我们的祖国。是的。”

His message in that van was about preserving this beautiful drawing for the future.

第8段（英文）

This story taught him a valuable lesson:
preserve your love and traditions even if they don’t seem to fit at first

He had shown us how to make memories, both big and small.

第9段（英文）

The next day, we all went back to Taiwan for our family trip. His hand-poured box was on the floor, but it did not affect him because he knew that his love would never end.

His mother said, “外公，您年轻了，但您永远爱着祖国。”

第10段（英文）

The old man’s words still resonated in our heart when we saw his message with this hand-drawn peony and the messages he read on that page. This story reminded us of the strength of our roots, even in foreign land.

第11段（英文）

In conclusion, as a young man, the old man had learned how to cherish memories and keep them alive. He had shown us that love is not only about relationships but also about preserving it, no matter where we go.

This story teaches us to love our roots even if they feel cold or harsh in some parts of the world.

第12段（英文）

Of course, this isn’t just a story; it’s a beautiful tale that reflects how much we care about our families and the people who grow up with us.
