SHEE

Grandma Surin

Bu Keni's land is ancestral heritage, in the same neighborhood they live side by side with the same grandmother's family.

Mrs. Keni is the eldest child of Surin's grandmother, she the position of the front house until the road in front of her house and the garden up to the edge of the ravine is her territory.

Grandmother Surin is a well-known healer in the village, all the medicines she gives are very effective, that's why most of Mrs. Surin's patients have been her customers for many years.

Almost every day the sick came, asking grandmother Surin for medicine, grandmother Surin would immediately go to the garden, to take various types of flowers or leaves needed, even though without payment, grandmother Surin would really help.

Villager: "Grandma, my son has had a stomach ache for three days. He has had diarrhea, I feel very sorry for him, his body is weak and his face is very pale, help us Grandma..."

Grandma Surin: "Okay, of course I will help him, you sit here for a while".

Villagers: "Okay Grandma..".

Not long after, grandmother Surin returned, her hand was carrying something.

Grandma Surin: this is as usual, boiled and then drunk the water, also drink lots of water. Village RS: ok granny, thank you. The

villager is a customer who has been there for years, until she even brought her son to grandmother Surin, she already knows what she usually does, without asking much they went home.

Everyone who lives in the mountains, will cross the river and pass through the village where grandmother Surin lives. They usually go to the city or to the market to sell their garden products.

Every day many villagers come, setting aside their harvest for grandmother Surin, at first grandmother Surin often refused, but their desire and sincerity was very high, now grandmother Surin is used to this situation realizing the sincere intentions of the villagers that cannot be refused.

They will put the vegetables or fruit harvested on the table.

Villager: "Excuse me Grandma.... I'll put this on the table, okay?"

Grandma Surin: "There are so many, you don't have to do this, take them all to the market...".

Villagers : "No Grandma, we have already set aside for you since we left home, our harvest is abundant".

Grandma Surin: "Then don't do this much, you see my table is full, some people stopped by here earlier".

Villager : "No Grandma, I brought it from afar for Grandma, if Grandma refuses I'll be sad".

The village people put the long beans and eggplant they harvested on the grandmother Surin's table which was already full of vegetables.

Surin's grandmother couldn't understand it either, she has a very large garden, dense fruit trees, quite complete medicinal trees, but still people often come to deliver vegetables and so on, so usually grandmother Surin will send them back if When the fruit harvest arrives, she will tell the villagers to pick the fruit in her garden. Grandma Surin's sense of family was very high, everyone she knew was like a sister to her. Grandma Surin's fruit trees are mostly yellowing, some fruit trees are planted in the garden, all the trees are big, and when they are fruiting like now, when we are in the garden, under the big trees that are bearing fruit, it is very pleasant, it feels like being in a fruit shop that is filled with fruit. There are various kinds available, such as having a picnic under shady trees, with a very natural view, the air is fresh, but the border of the ravine is a little steep, there is a small river with clear water flowing, but the villagers never use it, because the water is too small.

Yellowing fruit is a sign that it is starting to ripen on the tree and is the right time to be harvested.

Grandma Surin asked her son-in-law Pak Tur to harvest it.

Grandma Surin: "Tur, help me harvest the fruit in the garden that has turned yellow" said Grandma Surin as she approached the tour and pointed her hand towards the garden.

" Mr. Tour: "Ok ma'am, I'll do it" replied Mr. Tur quickly.

Grandma Surin: "Tur. , I've been living here for 2 months, tomorrow is the end of the month, as usual I have to be fair, it's your sister's house in Surabaya that I'm going to." Mr. Tur: "Yes, I remember, tomorrow I can take you, mother to the city".

Grandma Surin : " Later after you harvest the fruit, separate some for your brothers, I will bring them for them as souvenirs and some for your brothers and our neighbors here.

Mr. Tour: "Okay ma'am, don't worry, I will do it".

After Grandma Surin talked to him, Mr. Tur rushed back, he took a sack as a fruit, then brought a pole that was leaning next to the house. Today will be a tiring day after work. Mr. Tur left for the garden, his eyes were sharp in sorting the fruit he wanted to pick.

Tour: "First the mango tree, it's not too difficult"

he muttered, he immediately thrust a long pole towards the mango fruit bunch, the pole has been wrapped in a net to prepare a container for the fruit that will fall, so as not to damage.

One by one, the mangoes were picked up to 80 percent. Mr. Tur will go up to the tree if there is fruit that is easy to reach, he will also pick the fruit using his own hands without any tools.

Having been used to some of these tasks every time he harvested fruit, Mr. Tur did not experience any problems while doing it, he moved swiftly, with quick results he achieved.

Mr. Tur: "Ma'am, I think for the time being just this one tree first, tomorrow I will continue again, it's late and it's getting late, I have to finish it"

Granny Suren: "Okay Tur, as you think is best, I agree" said Grandma Tur who had been with her from the start

Pak Tur brought his harvested fruit, several sacks so he had to come back again to pick them up, but he did not allow Grandma Surin to come and help him.

Tour: "Don't bring anything ma'am, I can do it myself"

Grandma Surin: "But if it's only half a sack, it's also easy for me to do it," said Grandma Surin who really wanted to help her daughter-in-law.

Mr. Tur :" No ma'am, this is not a job mom and mom don't deserve this"

Tur: "Look at this, my arm muscles are big, it's a very light job for a muscular person like me, so I don't need your help at all. Tur said trying to reassure his mother as he lifted his sleeves to show his strong muscles.
