130K0

Jiang Shumei, 86, is known as the "legendary grandma". Her life is like a series of "crazy" adventures. Born in 1937, the Japs entered the village when he was 10 months old; when he was 11 years old, the People's Liberation Army invaded Jinan; when he was 22 years old, he suffered from the Great Famine; when he was 29 years old, he suffered from the Cultural Revolution. She escaped death many times, but she always lived with laughter. I learned my first word at the age of 60, and published my first book at the age of 76. Accidentally, she became a national hit, and CCTV called her the "Legendary Grandma". I started learning painting again at the age of 80 and calligraphy at the age of 82. My next goal is to live to be 130 years old. The book "My Mother is Eight and a Half Years Old" you are looking at now is written by her daughter. It is a small summary of Grandma Jiang's adventure career of more than 80 years. Opening this book is like holding a chair and sitting with grandma in the small courtyard in the afternoon and listening to her talk. She turned her heavy experiences into jokes, and her casual words were all golden. She always says to her readers: Don't cry when reading my books. Those things are over, and you should be happy.
