Zhang Xiaoming is 30 years old and works for a foreign company in Shanghai. His parents and sister's family live in their hometown in Nanjing. For Xiao Ming, Chinese New Year is the most important festival of the year, because it is a great time for him to be able to reunite with his family.
For Chinese, the Spring Festival is not only the beginning of a new year, but also contains rich traditional cultural connotations. People will post Spring Festival couplets, eat Chinese New Year's Eve dinners, set off firecrackers, and pray for good luck in the new year. And the most important tradition is that the whole family gathers together to greet each other.
"Ah, what I'm looking forward to most is going home for the Spring Festival. Xiao Ming thought, "Although I am usually very busy at work, I can reunite with my parents and my sister's family and eat a hot meal, which is the happiest thing." Throughout the year, he had been looking forward to these few days.
A week before the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Xiao Ming called his parents in Nanjing.
"Hey, Mom, it's me. Xiao Ming said happily, "I'll go home on the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve." "
"Ah, yes, yes!" The mother's voice was also full of joy, "This time you will live at home, don't live outside." "
"Great, I want to live at home too. Xiao Ming was very happy.
On the morning of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Xiao Ming took the high-speed train to Nanjing. As soon as he got off the bus, he saw his parents and his sister's family greeting him at the exit of the station. Seeing his relatives, Xiao Ming's heart was extremely warm.
"Mom, I'm back!" Xiao Ming happily hugged his mother.
"Quick, let's go home. Father said.
However, after returning home, Xiao Ming learned a news that made him extremely disappointed. My sister Xiaohong said hesitantly: "Brother, I'm sorry, our guest room is occupied by my brother-in-law's brother's family, so you can only stay in a nearby hotel." "
"What?" Xiao Ming felt very angry at the time, "As a son, he can only reunite with his parents for a few days every year, why is he arranged to live outside?"
He immediately expressed his dissatisfaction with his parents. The father explained: "Xiao Ming, your brother-in-law's family is from other places, and it is more convenient to live at home. And you're local, it's not a big deal to stay in a hotel. "
But Xiao Ming still felt very wronged. "That's my own home, too! I decided not to come to my house for the New Year in the future, so as not to be left out by you. "
Mother advised, "Oh, don't do that. You are our son, how can I snub you?"
But Xiao Ming already had a rebellious mentality, and his parents' words couldn't convince him. Later, her sister Xiaohong also joined this "war".
"Brother, you are a little child, lonely and self-appreciative!" Xiaohong accused.
"You are just serving outsiders and snubbing your own son!" Xiao Ming retorted.
The two of them quarreled like this. The parents watched from the sidelines, and they also felt that both sides had some truth, but they didn't know what to do. In the end, Xiao Ming was really angry, so he simply packed his luggage and left the house in a rage and stayed in a nearby hotel. His parents did not keep him and let him go.
After staying in the hotel, Xiao Ming began to reflect on whether he was making too much of a fuss. He sat on the bed in the hotel room, and his heart was mixed.
"Alas, my parents' original intention was to hope that I could spend the New Year comfortably at home. Xiao Ming sighed, "Maybe I'm too willful and make things bigger." "
He remembered that when he was a child, his parents would prepare new clothes and New Year's money for him every Spring Festival, and take care of him. Now, he has grown up and has an independent life of his own, but his parents' concern for him has never changed.
"Hey, Mom, it's me. Xiao Ming said, "I reacted too violently yesterday and made you worried." Now that I've figured it out, can I go home again?"
"Of course!" The mother's voice was full of joy, "Come back quickly, I'm waiting for you at home." "
Xiao Ming returned home, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw his parents and his sister's family sitting in the living room waiting for him. Everyone's faces were full of smiles, and the atmosphere was much more harmonious than before.
"Brother, didn't you come back from 'running away from home'?" Sister Xiaohong quipped, "It's like a child." "
Everyone was amused by her, and even Xiao Ming himself laughed. Through this incident, he realized the importance of his family. Although there are some small frictions that sometimes happen, they are all small things. The most important thing is the affection between family members.
"Actually, we are all at fault. Xiao Ming said sincerely, "I'm too willful, and you don't completely consider the problem from my point of view." It doesn't matter, though, it's all trifles. Most importantly, we are a family. "
The father nodded and said, "You're right. Family members should be considerate and tolerant of each other, and not always stubborn. If there is anything in the future, everyone just needs to communicate more. "
In this way, Xiao Ming learned to be tolerant. Everyone has their own ideas and can't always ask others to do things their way. The key is mutual understanding and respect.
In this way, the whole family sat around on the evening of the Chinese New Year's Eve and had a lively Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. During the meal, everyone smiled and chatted about the bits and pieces of the past year.
"Hey, Xiao Ming, you can take the time to come back and see our old couple. The mother said earnestly, "We are old, and what we look forward to most is the reunion of the whole family." "
"Don't worry, Mom, I'll be back often. Xiao Ming said, "Home is the most important thing, no matter what happens in the future, I will never forget this." "
In this way, accompanied by his family, Xiao Ming ushered in a new year. This experience made him realize that his family is his most valuable asset. No matter how difficult the road ahead is, as long as you have the support and encouragement of your family, you will be able to move forward bravely.
"Brother, get up quickly! Let's go to pay New Year's greetings and visit relatives!"
Xiao Ming rubbed his sleepy eyes and walked out of the bedroom, and saw that the family was already dressed and ready to go out.
"Come, give you an early greeting!" Xiao Ming smiled and kowtowed to the elders, wishing them a happy and prosperous New Year.
"Okay, good, I wish my family Xiao Ming a happy new year and a successful career!" Father also blessed.
The family first went to a nearby relative's house to greet each other and send blessings. The children happily received a lot of New Year's money, and they all smiled.
"Hey, Xiao Ming, Shanghai is very good, don't always stay in other places. An old aunt looked at Xiao Ming and said, "If you work from home, it would be good for us to take care of the old couple." "
"Auntie, don't worry, I will come back to see you often. Xiao Ming replied with a smile.
At the next stop, the family came to my brother-in-law's house to pay New Year's greetings. The brother-in-law's parents and the younger couple were there, and everyone was busy and sitting in the living room.
"Yo, Xiao Ming is here! Come in and sit. The brother-in-law's father greeted warmly.
"Uncle and aunt, Happy New Year!" Xiao Ming respectfully made a big salute.
"Haha, Xiao Ming is really a good boy with filial piety. My brother-in-law's mother praised me again and again.
Everyone, you say a word to me, the atmosphere is very warm. Xiao Ming suddenly sighed, it turned out that the relationship between relatives was so close.
During the Spring Festival, Xiao Ming's family also went to parks and temple fairs. Everywhere is a jubilant scene, and everywhere is filled with the festive atmosphere of the New Year. Xiao Ming took a group photo with his family and enjoyed this rare family fun.
In the blink of an eye, the Spring Festival holiday was filled with laughter. Xiao Ming is still unfinished, but it is time to return to Shanghai to work.
"Hey, time flies. Xiao Ming sighed, "I've been so happy these days." "
"Then take more time to come back, our family will always be waiting for you." Mother patted Xiao Ming on the shoulder and said.
"I will. Xiao Ming said firmly, "This experience has made me deeply realize that family is the most valuable asset. No matter how difficult the road ahead is, as long as you have the support and encouragement of your family, you will be able to move forward bravely. "
"You've finally grown up. My father sighed from the bottom of his heart, "I'm so proud of you." "
It's time to say goodbye. Xiao Ming hugged his parents and his sister's family tightly, and said goodbye reluctantly.
"Well, I'll come back to see you often. Xiao Ming waved goodbye, "In the new year, our family will be safe and smooth!"
"Be careful!"
Xiao Ming stepped on the train to Shanghai. Outside the car window, the scenery of my hometown is gradually drifting away. However, no matter how far he goes, the figure of his family will always be imprinted in his heart. With the company and expectation of his family, he will definitely be able to meet more beautiful things on the road of life in the future.
After bidding farewell to his family, Xiao Ming stepped on the train to Shanghai. Outside the car window, the scenery of my hometown is gradually drifting away. However, no matter how far he goes, the figure of his family will always be imprinted in his heart.
The train traveled on the endless tracks, and Xiao Ming's thoughts were also gone. He remembered the bits and pieces of this Spring Festival reunion with his family, and his heart was full of warmth and gratitude.
"Although there were some small twists and turns at the beginning, in the end we resolved our differences and had a wonderful Chinese New Year. Xiao Ming muttered to himself, "The relationship between family members is the most valuable treasure in the world, and it can give us infinite strength and courage. "
Xiao Ming remembered Chinese New Year's Eve, and the family happily made dumplings and ate Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. The dumpling filling is fragrant, and everyone eats with a mouth full of oil. After eating, they set off firecrackers and pasted Spring Festival couplets together, and decorated their homes in full swing.
"Haha, Xiao Ming is really a good boy with filial piety. The brother-in-law's mother praised. Xiao Ming was deeply moved by this simple sentence, and he realized the value of family affection.
During the Spring Festival, they also go to parks and temple fairs. Everywhere is a jubilant scene, and everywhere is filled with the festive atmosphere of the New Year. Xiao Ming took a group photo with his family and enjoyed this rare family fun.
"Hey, time flies. Before leaving, Xiao Ming sighed, "I've been so happy these days." "
"Then take more time to come back, our family will always be waiting for you." His mother patted him on the shoulder and said.
Yes, no matter how far he goes, his family will always be his most solid backing. With the support and encouragement of his family, he will be able to move forward bravely and meet more beautiful things in the future.
"Everything will be better in the new year!" Xiao Mingshu made up his mind.
The train runs on the wide railway, and Xiao Ming's heart is as open and wide as this railway. He remembered his work and life in the past year, although it was hard, but he also gained a lot of achievements and experience.
"I want to continue to work hard in the new year and do a better job. "Only in this way can I reassure my parents and lay a better foundation for my future." "
"I'm going to do the extra best!" Xiao Ming muttered to himself, his eyes firm.
At this moment, Xiao Ming's mobile phone rang, and it was a call from a colleague from Shanghai.
"Hey, Xiao Ming, Happy New Year! I heard you've already taken the train back to Shanghai?"
"yes, I'm already in the car. Xiao Ming smiled and said, "In the new year, let's work together!"
"Okay! With your words, I'm relieved. Let's try to do the best for the company!"
"New year, new beginning!" Xiao Ming's heart is full of strength, and he is full of beautiful expectations for the future.
