Interesting Stories from Childhood
Childhood is like an endless stream, flowing slowly in my heart. In this stream, there is joyful laughter, There were also sad tears, but what I remember most is a silly thing I did when I was a child.
That was when I was four years old. One morning, grandma was cooking in the kitchen and found that there was no salt, and she was at a loss. Why? Because I am the only one left at home. If she goes out by herself and leaves me alone at home, who knows what will happen? So feel uneasy. At this time, I saw through my grandma's difficulty, and volunteered to grandma: "I will help you buy the salt." "You?" Grandma looked at me doubtfully. "Yes! I have been there several times!" (In fact, I have not been there.) Grandma nodded helplessly.
Soon, I bought salt back from the canteen. I was happy that I could do things for adults, but I accidentally stepped on a banana peel on the ground. I suddenly fell down, and the salt bag fell to the ground and broke. The white salt was scattered all over the floor. I immediately panicked and thought: The salt fell on the ground and became dirty. I have to tell the bad news quickly. Grandma listens.
As soon as I arrived at the door of the yard, I saw Grandma Wang next door washing rice. I suddenly had an idea and thought: since rice can be washed clean with water, then salt can also be washed clean. Thinking of this, I immediately borrowed a basin from Grandma Wang. I came to the street, put salt into the basin, and ran to the faucet in the courtyard.
The basin was quickly filled with water. I shook the basin vigorously, then put my hand in and stirred it. I didn't know that the basin was empty. I was so panicked that I didn't care about the basin and ran home immediately.
When I got home, I told my grandma what happened. Before she finished speaking, grandma was already laughing. She touched my head and said with a smile: "Silly boy, salt can't be washed clean like rice. It dissolves when it comes into contact with water." After that, she laughed again.
From this incident, I learned a truth: you must think twice before doing anything
