#Do you go home for the Spring Festival this year#
I'm just over 11 kilometers away from my hometown, and if it weren't for the rain or snow, it would only be half an hour by tram.
Distance is not an issue, time is the reason. I don't earn much money every day, but I wear the stars and the moon every day, and I get up early and are greedy for darkness.
But I decided to take a few days off, because it was the Chinese New Year, and I wanted to go back to the village, to the countryside, to my hometown.
I'm going to clean the yard, I'm going to clean up the streets and alleys, I'm going to wipe all the glass, I'm going to scrub the dust off the house.
I also put far-reaching curtains on the windows, blessed couplets on both sides of the doors and in the courtyard, and festive red lanterns on the eaves and street doors.
On the twenty-third day of the twelfth lunar month, I will provide water and forage to the king of the stove, and also provide hemp sugar, so that the horses of the king of the stove will be full and drink, and they will return to the heavenly palace to report good things.
On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, I lit a fire and put a few second kicks. Let the old house and yard welcome the New Year together.
Although my parents are gone, I want them not to feel lonely and desolate, and also let me relive the days full of family affection and recall the warm memories of my childhood.
Wanderers from all over the world, will you go back to your hometown for the New Year?
