姑父一直想当个教育家,可他退休之前最大的官儿就是车间的工会组长。他快离世的那几年,每当立冬,都要在临街的窗台上摆12枚柿子。然后,坐在20米开外的破沙发上,看着这堆柿子。我说:您可太抠门了,这几个柿子值多少钱?姑父说,我是让它们被人偷,然后再教育偷它们的人。有一阵子,每天都有一初中男生和一女生从姑父这里经过。 My uncle always wanted to be an educator, but the biggest official before he retired was the labor union leader of the workshop. In the past few years after his death, every winter, we had to put 12 persimmons on the windowsill facing the street. Then sit on the broken sofa 20 meters away and look at the pile of persimmons. I said: You can be too stingy, how many persimmons worth? Uncle said, I let them be stolen, and then educate those who steal them. For a while, a junior high school boy and a girl passed by her uncle every day.
