On the morning of November 17, it was still drizzling. Volunteers came to the "Ou Baoting" Xianlin International Support Center with the rain gear on time.

Today, volunteers were still one-on-one with the elderly to relax and chat. A volunteer brother's task was to push a grandfather to walk on the first floor. Another volunteer was accompanying Grandma Liang for a walk outside. After the walk, she chatted with Grandma Liang in her room.

After pushing the old people around, the volunteer gril saw a grandfather concentrating on landscape painting in the painting studio. After talking, she learned that the grandfather was a retired professor of Nanjing Agricultural University. After he retired, he began to learn Chinese painting by himself. The walls of the studio were full of Grandpa's paintings, including not only landscape paintings, but also flower and fruit paintings, animal paintings and so on. Grandpa was very excited to see someone admire his paintings. He first talked about how he changed the theme of "Seeking plums in the snow" to "Walking in the snow to welcome spring" to meet the image of the elderly." Then, he went to the cabinet and took out his recent works for everyone to enjoy. There happened to be a volunteer sister who had also studied Chinese painting. She was very happy to talk with the Grandpa about painting. In addition, she also took out the paintings she had drawn on her mobile phone to show the Grandpa. At this time, a grandmother who was pushed by the volunteers was also attracted. Everyone enjoyed Grandpa's paintings together, and Grandma expressed her admiration for Grandpa's pursuit of his artistic dream in his later years.

Soon it was time for Grandpa and Grandma to have a rest and dinner. Volunteers waved goodbye to Grandpa and Grandma and said they would see Grandpa's paintings again. The "Red Candle" Youth Association of the School of Teacher Education successfully carried out the voluntary activities of caring for "Ou Baoting". Let's look forward to a better performance of volunteers next time. (School of Teacher Education: Fang Hanyu)
