My grandfather often said "I won't" to show his dislike of dishonesty(不诚实). When he was young, he worked 1 a furniture(家具)maker. One day, a neighbor invited him to make some furniture. When arriving, he noticed the wood provided was a little 2 , so he said, "I won't start right away." He chose to let the wood dry for a month. He knew working with wet wood could cause 3 later on.

Around the same time, another furniture maker was also asked for a 4  job by a different family. Unlike my grandfather, he 5  working right away. As a result, the neighbor started doubting my grandfather, thinking he was trying to make more money by 6  the work. However, my grandfather waited 7 . He wanted the best quality for the furniture he was making.

A month later, the other furniture maker received his 8  and went back home. My grandfather began to 9  strong and beautiful furniture when the wood was completely dry. A few months passed and the furniture made by that maker began to break. The neighbor then regretted 10  my grandfather and said sorry to him. People came to understand his 11  and skill, spreading his fame far and wide.

Influenced by my grandfather, my father also follows the 12 of "I won't". He always provides the freshest food, which makes his restaurant very 13 in town. Once a trader wanted to sell some cheap but smelly seafood to my father, he said "No!" and stopped the 14 .

Now, my brother and I keep in mind 15 our grandfather and father taught us. Through ups and downs in life, we've come to deeply understand our family value behind this saying—to be truthful and honest.
