The Arbor Day in 1985 was an unforgettable day.
On this day, the cloudless spring breeze blew my face. Among the people planting trees in the Temple of Heaven Park, Grandpa Deng Xiaoping, 81, is particularly eye-catching. With a spade in his hand, he was digging a tree pit with enthusiasm. His forehead was covered with sweat, and he still refused to rest.
After a tree pit was dug, Grandpa Deng selected a cypress seedling, carefully moved it into the tree pit, and then filled it with a few shovels of soil. He stood a few steps away and looked carefully. He felt that it was not very straight, and said repeatedly: No, no! " He went forward to straighten the sapling.
A small green cypress tree was planted and stood there like a soldier. Grandpa Deng's face showed a satisfied smile.
Today, the cypress planted by Grandpa Deng Xiaoping has grown up, and "Xiaoping Tree" has become a beautiful landscape in the Temple of Heaven.
