Dong Yuhui went home to attend his brother's wedding during the holidays, and wrote a small essay when he left and returned to Beijing, which aroused deep empathy among many people and ranked first on the hot list. Why is there such a heat? It's not how beautiful his videos are, how stunning the text is, it's the emotional resonance that triggers a huge wave of people's inner emotions, although the video clips are ordinary and the text is also very simple, far from the beautiful text as the small essays he wrote for various places, but regardless of the video or the text, full of fireworks, naturally into people's hearts.
On that day, people came from all directions, smiling, and went to a grand festival together, everyone had not seen each other for a long time, hugged each other after shaking hands, giggled after tears, exchanged pleasantries cordially, clinked glasses without scruples, spilled wine out of the rim of the glass, and blessed the words over and over again until the wine passed three rounds and fell asleep. When I woke up, I found that the excitement had dissipated somehow. It was as if everyone had a lively and beautiful dream together, in which the family was around, life was full of expectations, and the table was full of delicacies.
After waking up from the dream, it was deserted, the village was still withered, the small courtyard was still deserted, they were too hurried, the tears that did not have time to shed, the farewells that did not have time to say, all became the faces of the side of the train leaving their hometown, they thought of the old man who always stared at the daze at the intersection, so their hearts were hot, their eyes were scarlet, they clenched their fists, and they did not say a word, they had to summon up enough courage to go far away and cope with life. I also look forward to the next day, like an arrow in my heart, and the excitement will reappear, which can wash away this coldness.
Dong Yuhui's copywriting really speaks the heart of a generation, so it has resonated with many people. After the excitement of the gathering, the desertion of the village, the lonely old people, wanderers leaving home, going out to seek a living. It is the voice of a generation, and everyone has this feeling when they mention their hometown.
My hometown's village is also like this, when I went back for the New Year a few years ago, there was a traffic jam on the way back to the village from the city, but when I took the baby back during the summer vacation, it was deserted, so far away that I couldn't see a person, and occasionally I could see old people with children passing by. Even red and white happy events are rarely seen in the village, thinking of the excitement of red and white happy events when I was a child, the earth pot was propped up in the yard, the village cooks well came to take charge of the cooking, tables, chairs, dishes and plates were pieced together by various families, relatives came and went, children gathered together was particularly lively, even the people who set up stalls knew to come, selling balloons, popcorn, sugar and other snack gadgets. Now the lively atmosphere can no longer be seen, even if there are red and white happy events, it is basically the restaurant in the village, and there is no such atmosphere at all.
I remembered that when I was a child, after a good year, when a big son gathered, three aunts and one everyone plus my father and three brothers, grandparents and even great-grandmother when they were there, those bustles have long ceased to exist, cousins and sisters go their separate ways, especially when I have left home, it is difficult to get together again.
The house where I was born has been remodeled many years ago, and the old house of my grandparents next to it has also been rebuilt, and the new house is definitely better than the old house, but it has completely lost those childhood memories. When I was a child, the shady tree in the yard, and a few fruit trees, and even the location of the sheepfold and the chicken coop were all in my heart, but it was not what it used to be at all, after the renovation, there were also several fruit trees planted in the yard, even if there were pomegranate trees that were not the same as they used to be, even if the new persimmon trees were fruitful, I still missed the pear trees that were not so sweet at the beginning and the date trees that did not hang much fruit.
From Dong Yuhui's text, I read family affection, read true meaning, read simplicity, read joy, read freeness, read delicateness, read sadness, read reluctance, read bitterness, read helplessness, read endeavor, read talent, read wisdom, read life as a human being. I read humility, I read about kindness, I read about the fireworks and prosperity of the world, I read about the ambition and future in my heart.
After watching in Dong Yuhui's comment area for a long time, many friends were deeply empathetic, everyone's life has so many touching points, but they usually don't say it, giving everyone an outlet to talk about. Even if there is a month in his hometown, it is not as good as a lamp in his hometown.
This is a microcosm of an era and a true portrayal of countless families! Only true feelings are the most moving.
