Taste of the year
When I was a kid! The days passed very slowly, and the festival came only once in a long time, and I always looked forward to the festival. After getting older, the days passed very quickly, and in the busy, as soon as I didn't pay attention, the festival came to my eyes, and I had to sigh: it's the festival again. Time is still hurried and leisurely, the years do not stay, the new year and the New Year, the festival and the festival, do not feel that the uncle has been. In the middle of the year, the most grand festival is the "New Year", in the city New Year, there are lively flower markets, a variety of goods, brilliant and colorful lights, novel and interesting paradise, but always feel that this "New Year's flavor" is not strong, the incense is not mellow, not as good as the "New Year's taste" of the countryside when I was a child.
Although the childhood year is far away, but still alive, the winter vacation party to, began to break the finger looking forward to the New Year, looking forward to the New Year's dinner, new shirts, profits, adults try to raise money for the New Year, the closer the year, the stronger the taste, after a small Chinese New Year's Eve, it has entered the rhythm of the year, everyone prepares new year goods to welcome the New Year, children are most excited, day and night, sleep will also wake up laughing.
Hope, hope! Finally, the Chinese New Year's Eve came, early in the morning, people were busy, pasting the Spring Festival, hanging New Year paintings, killing chickens, slaughtering geese, wrapping browns, frying oil fins, boiling goose soup balls, making knives and cutting magnets... Every household was in full swing, the cooking smoke wafted on the roof, the aroma of food filled the whole village, children wandered around the stove and patio, salivating over those who ate, the busy day was mainly for Chinese New Year's Eve dinner and a ball of New Year's meals. In that era of material scarcity, a family neatly fed and dressed warm is the greatest wish, the New Year's dinner is the most solemn, not only means a family reunion, but also prays for the happiness of the next year, but also the most abundant, people are eager to put all that they usually want to eat and can't eat on the table. After the ancestor worship was completed, the family sat around the table and feasted. At that time, there was no TV at home, and Chinese New Year's Eve keep the age, and could only eat, drink, talk and laugh, although simple, the joy was also harmonious.
On the first day of the Chinese New Year, put on new clothes, put on the profit is money, call a small partner, and go to the ruins happily. The market is crowded with people, bustling, noisy gongs and drums, smart lion heads, thrilling juggling, exciting fighting, and lively scenes that make people linger. The market is filled with a variety of New Year goods, tempting candies, beautiful doll paper, charming little people's books, festive fireworks, and the money in the children's pockets is drained one by one. Happy do not know the time passed, quietly the lights have been dusk, after dark, the children in groups of three or five fireworks, higher than who, who's loud, who is bright, boys love to use fireworks to fight the boy, the two village children such as two armies against each other, with fireworks shooting each other, you chase me, shouting the sky, until the smoke of gunfire dissipated, only to end the curtain.
After the first day of the New Year, it began to "visit relatives" to visit the New Year, visiting grandparents, aunts and uncles, three aunts and six wives, after walking relatives, the year is nearly over, the taste of the year is gradually dispersed, after the Lantern Festival, the year is over.
With the gradual aging, whether in the city or the countryside, the taste of the new year seems to be getting weaker and weaker, in the provincial city New Year there is always a feeling of being a stranger, when trying to return to the countryside to find the old taste of the year, the strong hope always becomes a faint disappointment. The taste of the past is the warmth of a family gathering together, the joy of parents on the stove, the loving blessing of grandparents, the joyful play of brothers and sisters, the wanton play with playmates, and the celebration of visiting relatives and friends. The four seasons change, time passes, people grow up, the taste of the year seems to have changed, there is no longer the kind of expectation and excitement that was before, childhood playmates, friends and brothers and sisters are also increasingly alienated because of their growth, and everyone is like an extra layer of diaphragm, or something called wariness. Oh, yes! From the past teenagers who did not know the taste of sorrow, to today's chai rice oil salt sauce vinegar tea, shouldering the burden of life, after years of polishing, reading the cold and warm of human feelings, the time of flowing water has long smoothed out our edges and corners, how many people can go out for half a life, and return to be a teenager?
The years are long, and inadvertently, everyone has completed the evolution of the character. Brothers and sisters have their own families, the stars scatter in the night sky, playmates run forward, the world is north and south, the parents have turned into the twilight years, the grandparents' souls are far away, my generation has long ceased to be a teenager, the stupid thing of fighting a war with fireworks will never be done again, the years have enriched our experience, and also taken away our innocence, more old our faces, the year is still that year, the past year flavor belongs to the taste of the youth, now experiencing the taste of the father's year, the future is the year of the ancestors, the flowers and the reopening day, life is no longer a teenager, looking back on the past.
