In the blink of an eye, the Spring Festival of 2022 has arrived.
Someone is worried about a return ticket,
Someone has put the itinerary home on the agenda,
There are also people who, for various reasons,
The first reunion of 2022 has been postponed.
Once upon a time we were thousands of miles away, sending things to our thoughts,
Once upon a time we saw the letters as they were, and the family letters were concerned,
And now, the thoughts are linked to a network cable,
We can go through videos, even games,
Let relatives and friends who are far away from home accompany you at all times.
Hearts together are victory.
The girl on the assembly line of Dalian Garment Factory - little rabbit,
This year, because of the work, I can only celebrate the New Year in place,
She used her own special way,
"Heart reunion" with family in the Spring Festival of the Year of the Tiger.
An assembly line girl for the New Year in place
It's almost the New Year, and in a garment factory in Dalian's Jinzhou district, Liaoning Province, a group of workers in uniform are working overtime on the assembly line with their heads bowed.
"Xiao hui, there are you who work overtime in the New Year."
"Sun Qidong is also, and you have overtime in the New Year."
"Little bunny, there is you working overtime for the New Year."
Hearing that the supervisor announced that he had himself in the list of overtime work for the New Year, and could not go home this year, the little rabbit looked up and hesitated for a few seconds, and then seriously continued to do the work at hand. My heart is full of mixed feelings, but I can't say anything.
After dinner, the little rabbit finally dialed his sister's phone: "This year the factory will work overtime, I will not go home..."
Before she could finish explaining, my sister hung up the phone at that end. Before going to bed, the little bunny invited his sister to play black as usual, but was again refused. This kind of "little willfulness" is also the way the sister expresses the miss of her sister.
The nickname "Little Rabbit" was given to herself when she first arrived at the garment factory at the age of 20, one is to make it easy for the people around her to remember herself; the other is because she likes rabbits very much, she even has a coat with rabbit ears, which is a gift she gave herself on her birthday last year.
Today, the little rabbit has been in the garment factory for three years. Compared to when she first came to work, she could make two clothes at the same time, and she was busy making one at most; now, obviously, she was much more handy, and she could squeeze out time to sew some of her favorite clothes after work.
Referring to not going home for the New Year, the little rabbit said, "There are three times the salary for overtime work in the New Year, think about it is still worth it, can offset half a month's salary", but I just feel sorry for my sister.
The little rabbit was born in a small village with extremely inconvenient transportation, and when he was a child, because the family had no money, his parents could only provide for one of the two sisters to study, and the younger sister took the initiative to leave the campus in order to let the sister continue to complete her studies. Talking about these past events between himself and his sister, the little rabbit's voice was a little choked.
Because he could not return home for the New Year, the little rabbit prepared a "special New Year's gift" for his sister, which could be mailed directly to the village. "Hopefully she'll love it when she sees this gift."
Walking into the familiar bright house of China Post, the little rabbit filled in the address and handed his package to the staff. The place, which comes once or twice a month for three years, is a station where she and her hometown convey their feelings.
Sometimes I sent my mother and sister something to eat, sometimes I sent clothes from the factory, and sometimes I bought interesting gadgets on the street.
She knew that the package had arrived home, and her heart was with her family.
The deepest thought is to go in both directions
The mother and sister who are far away from home are also thinking about what to prepare for the little rabbit who can't go home for the New Year, so that she can also have a Spring Festival with a hometown flavor.
Although it has been more than three years since the little rabbit left the house, the sister knows very well what the sister loves to eat. Even if my sister gambled that my sister couldn't go home during the Spring Festival, when I accompanied my mother to buy New Year goods, I put it in the basket, which my sister usually likes to eat.
In the morning, the kitchen was clanging, and the jars and bags filled a whole big cardboard box, which was the New Year goods that her mother and sister had prepared for the little rabbits. The sister was in the box, and she also stuffed a surprise she had prepared for her sister, and she knew that her sister would be happy to see it.
Whether sending or receiving parcels, my sister is always the most active, and the place in the county town where the four square characters of China Post are written seems to connect a larger world.
Because of this post office, my sister can always eat seafood sent by my sister from Dalian, wear the clothes that my sister bought online for herself, and there are many fresh things that I have never seen before, and even my sister is sometimes whimsical and wants to put herself into a package and go outside to see.
On the eve of the Spring Festival, this package with the taste of hometown and the mysterious gift of his sister arrived at the garment factory where the little rabbit was located. When the little bunny received the call from the postman, he ran to the pickup point full of excitement.
This bulging big box, the little rabbit is very difficult to hold up, with the help of the workers, only to move this heavy New Year goods back to the dormitory.
Opening the package, mom and sister's thoughts also ran out of it—three bottles of the bunny's favorite chili sauce, full of fried goods, and a thin letter, which was the sister's surprise to the bunny.
On the crooked font, the sister wrote also homely trivia, but behind it carried the worry that blood was thicker than water, and a piece of letter paper also became particularly weighty.
The little rabbit laughed while looking at his sister's letter, and then tasted the chili sauce, but his eyes were a little red, and he didn't know whether it was because the pepper was too choking or because his hometown was too far away. The little rabbit feels that his nose is sour, probably this is the taste of home.
Looking at the package sent by his sister, the little rabbit muttered, the package for her sister, she almost received it.
At the same time, the younger sister also received a surprise package prepared by her sister - a handmade costume of "Star Song Ji".
This heroic role carries too many thoughts and emotions of the two sisters: whenever the sister misses her sister, she will invite her sister to open the black, and the sister will take out "Annie" to cooperate with the sister's favorite hero "Salefani". The two of them doubled together, only hoping that my sister could be happy with this hero who loved to sing.
This dress is a gift that my sister sewed for her sister after work using the remaining clothes scraps left in the factory. Although the sister can't live with the little rabbit every day, the black of the game between the sisters after work is the emotional connection between the little rabbit and the sister. It is precisely because the two sisters share the time of life together by playing together, so that the two people feel that the other is always by their side.
The best gift is special customization
Little Rabbit is an ordinary female worker in an ordinary garment factory and a member of tens of millions of "Spring Festival foreigners".
The Spring Festival can not go home, friends sent a black invitation, passing on the memory, but also conveyed that as long as the heart is linked together, it is a victory in a team battle.
The Spring Festival can not go home, relatives sent from their hometown parcels, passing on the worries, but also convey the lingering nostalgia and thoughts in the heart.
In 2022, more and more people choose to become "Spring Festival strangers" who have not returned home, but the heart can be connected through a package, a game, a phone call, and a message.
The League of Legends mobile game and China Post have launched the "Spring Festival Heart-warming Plan", using stamps and postcards to make every "Spring Festival stranger" feel together, so that more young people can feel the new charm of the New Year, and also let more friends who still stick to their front-line posts and cannot return to the city for the New Year reunion.
The Spring Festival in 2022 is the third Spring Festival of fighting the epidemic with one heart, even if it is the New Year on the spot, as long as our hearts are together, it is a victory.
