Heidi ran happily on the grass with bare feet. Her clear eyes and pure smile make it difficult for people to associate her with orphans.
But it is true that Heidi's parents died when Heidi was very young. Her aunt Dete took care of her for five years and sent her to the Alps to live with her grandfather, who lives alone in the mountains far away from the town.
At first, Grandpa Yu Li was not willing to accept Heidi. She spent her first night curled up in the sheepfold with the lambs.
When she was just integrated into her grandfather's life, she was coaxed and sold by her aunt to the Zesselmanns in Frankfurt to be Miss Clara's companion.
The hardships of life always come to this little girl suddenly, but she doesn't sink in the misery like most people do.
On the contrary, the suffering taught her to be strong and kind, and it also taught her to be content and cherish the moment. She is like an elf left in the Alps, and her smile infects everyone around her.
1. Learn to be strong and grow up in suffering
Heidi greeted grandfather warmly as soon as she saw her. Her eyes were full of anticipation. She must have thought that grandfather would take her in, but grandpa picked up the axe and said loudly, "Get out of here."
Auntie went down the mountain by herself while Grandpa left Heidi unnoticed. Grandpa went back into the house angrily and bolted the door, leaving Heidi alone outside.
Heidi called "Grandpa" to the house, but Grandpa was indifferent. Heidi did not cry, she looked around calmly, and walked straight to the sheepfold after hearing the cry of the little lamb.
Lightning thundered at night, and it rained all night. So Heidi curled up with the lamb and spent her first night in the sheepfold after going up the mountain.
The next day, Grandpa let go, "You can sleep anywhere", but Heidi saw that Grandpa only had one bed, so she climbed the stairs and slept in the attic full of weeds.
Heidi is like a dandelion seed. As long as the wind stops a little, she can find a piece of land that belongs to her and work hard to adapt to life here.
Heidi had just found warmth from her grandfather, but was sold by her aunt to the Zesselmanns in Frankfurt.
The housekeeper was very indifferent to Heidi. Because Heidi pushed Miss Clara out of the house, the housekeeper asked Heidi to face the wall, not allowed to eat, and even threatened her that "the next time you commit a crime, you will be locked in the basement with mice".
In her eyes, Heidi is not only a "comprehensive disorder", but also a girl who "behaves extremely rudely, almost crazy".
Heidi endured all this silently, struggling to adapt to the rules of the big house and everyone who lived here.
The repressed life held Heidi tightly like a net, which made her feel a lot of pain, but she only moaned slightly at night when she was lying on the bed alone.
She never gave up hope of returning home. In her sleep Heidi walked out of the door of the house again and again, standing outside, facing the direction of the Alps.
Heidi finally touched Clara's dad. He agreed with Heidi to leave Frankfurt and go back to her grandfather.
The net that had been wrapped around Heidi must have been quietly woven into a pair of shoes by her. Although the shoe still has some foot rest, it can take Heidi to go faster and farther.
2. Learn to be kind and warm the world with love
In the mouths of others, Heidi's grandfather is a person who "has no faith and is hostile to people". Everyone thinks that he is stubborn, indifferent, and ruthless. There are even rumors that grandpa killed people.
But when Grandpa told Heidi, "You have to judge for yourself whether to believe your own eyes and ears, or to believe the rumors outside", Heidi knew that Grandpa was innocent. She hugged her grandfather tightly and said goodnight to him happily.
The Russian writer Dostoyevsky said: "A kind-hearted person always likes to think of other people's good...". I think, only kind people can see the pain in other people's hearts.
Heidi also remembered that Pete's grandma couldn't bite hard bread. At each meal at Clara's house, Heidi quietly kept a loaf of bread, because she was going to take the soft bread back to her grandmother.
In order to prevent Pete from whipping the goat, Heidi was willing to give Pete half of the food every day. Not only the goats, but the voles in the cave are not willing to hurt her.
Hugo once wrote: "A kind heart is sunshine". Heidi is really like the sun, she gently shines on the Alps, and guards all the creatures on the mountain with her heart, and never bears the slightest harm to them.
Not just in the Alps, Heidi brings warmth wherever she goes.
Because of the death of her mother, Clara became seriously ill, and since then she can no longer walk. All day she was confined to a wheelchair to move around the house.
When Heidi met Clara, she shared with Clara a lot of interesting stories about her and her grandfather, her and Pete, gosling, bear and so on in the Alps every day.
Heidi is like the spring sunshine, she shines into Clara's monotonous and lonely life, making Clara's world colorful.
Later, under Heidi's repeated invitations, Clara finally came to the Alps. Accompanied by Heidi and grandpa, Clara miraculously stood up and she could walk.
If there are miracles in the world, I believe they must be created by kindness and love, and Heidi is the embodiment of them. She is an angel left in the world. She makes everyone around her feel that life is not so bad, and there are so many beautiful things in the world that we should cherish and enjoy.
3. Learn to be content and cherish what you already have
Heidi, who came home after herding the sheep, was pleasantly surprised to find that there was an extra chair in the house. When she was sure that her grandfather prepared it for her, she excitedly hugged her grandfather and said "thank you" repeatedly.
Although the chair was rough, it was probably the first gift Heidi received. It made Heidi feel the long-awaited family love, and Heidi was satisfied at this moment.
When Heidi saw that Pete's family was even poorer, that Pete's grandmother was blind, her teeth were missing, and she couldn't even bite hard bread, she deeply felt that she was lucky, As she said to her grandpa "We're doing fine, right".
The poverty of Pitt's family and his aunt's reluctance to "give up" let Heidi know the hardships and difficulties of life; the premature death of parents and grandma Pete's infirmity made Heidi feel the fragility of life and the preciousness of family affection.
And now she has her grandfather with her, she and her grandfather are still healthy, and they have bread and cheese to eat, which is enough for Heidi, who has gone through hardships.
So when Heidi was sold to Clara's house by her aunt, Heidi didn't want to stay in this splendid house with servants.
Although the aunt may have really planned the future for Heidi. Heidi could have a better life and a better education here, but none of these belonged to Heidi after all. Heidi cherished the happiness and life that she had not long ago that truly belonged to her.
During the spring and summer, Heidi and Grandpa would live in a log cabin in the Alps. At this time, Heidi can run on the grass to the fullest, and enjoy the blue sky, clear lake, green grass and blueberries in the mountains and plains in the Alps.
In winter, grandpa takes Heidi back to the village, and Heidi can go to school with the children in the village.
Although winters in the Alps are cold and long, there is often snow. The thick snow always illuminates the whole mountain, and it quietly nourishes the sleeping seeds in the land. When spring comes next year, I don't know where a few more beautiful flowers or a small sapling will grow.
The suffering in life is like this winter, which always makes people feel cold, depressed and sad, but because of its existence, people can experience the warmth of the sun and the beauty of spring.
It quietly taught us a lot, and it also made us understand the true meaning of life and the meaning of life.
