Huwei’s compassionate grandma

Would you run a business that lost money? An 86-year-old grandmother in Yunlin's Huwei Township does just that, silently doing good deeds in the community. Not only is there a price ceiling at her eatery of NT$30(USD1), when she hears of any students struggling with living expenses, she even treats them to a free meal and gives them daily necessities to take home. Regular visitors to Grandma's eatery include not only students from the local colleges and schools but also residents from the community. But regardless of who visits the eatery, everyone succumbs to Grandma's infectious warmth and leaves feeling inspired to help others too.

Ironically, by helping others, this compassionate grandmother is also helping herself, not only becoming a model for others to learn from but also finding joy and satisfaction in life. It's a reminder that perhaps the greatest source of joy in life is to give unconditionally, and that even with meager resources, we can still benefit those around us.

虧本的生意你會做嗎？在雲林虎尾卻有一位86歲的婆婆默默行善，小吃店裡的價格維持在30元內，聽到學生這個月生活費不夠，甚至會請他們吃飯以及提供所需的物品。小吃店的常客不只是附近學校的學生，還有社區居民及社會人士，大家都在這裡受到婆婆的照顧進而被婆婆的溫暖所感染，跟著婆婆一起照顧更多人。

婆婆的舉動幫助了別人也幫助了自己，不僅成為大家學習的楷模，也讓自我的身心靈得到滿足，最快樂的事就是無條件為人付出，就算再微薄的力量依舊可以造福周遭的人。
