Mẹ Không Biết Đọc Chữ – The Illiterate Mother

English Version

In a charming little village, there lived a mother named Hoa, who was well-loved by the villagers for her kind heart and nurturing nature. However, she faced a significant challenge: she was illiterate. Despite her inability to read or write, Hoa worked tirelessly to provide for her children, often relying on her neighbors to help her understand letters and signs she encountered in her daily life.

One day, her eldest child, Minh, returned home filled with excitement, holding a letter addressed to their family. “Mother! I received a letter from school!” he exclaimed. But as he handed it to Hoa, her heart sank when she realized she couldn’t read its contents. Minh noticed his mother’s distress and comforted her, saying, “Don’t worry, Mother. I can read it for you!” With each word Minh read aloud, Hoa experienced a bittersweet mix of pride and sadness; she felt proud of her son’s abilities while mourning her own limitations.

Even though she could not read, Hoa imparted essential life skills to her children. She instilled values such as honesty, kindness, and perseverance. Every evening, they would gather together, and she would share stories from her childhood, using her imagination to bring the tales to life. This storytelling ritual became a cherished tradition that deepened their bond.

As the years went by, Hoa recognized the importance of education. She encouraged her children to study diligently and pursue their dreams, assuring them that they would never face the same obstacles she had. “I may not be able to read,” she told them, “but my love for you is evident in every action and lesson I share. Always treasure knowledge.” Minh and his siblings carried their mother’s words in their hearts, ensuring that her sacrifices would not be in vain. They excelled in their studies, making Hoa proud.
