In the far south, there is a small town surrounded by mountains called Qingxi. The scenery here is picturesque, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, like a fairyland on earth with independent relics. However, for newcomers, it is a strange, lonely place.
Zhao Yiming is such an outsider. He was transferred to Qingxi, a small town he had never heard of, for work. When he first arrived, he found himself at odds with everything here, the language, the food, the customs, and even the strange smell in the air.
In this strange place, Zhao Yiming has no relatives, no friends, and not even a person to talk to. Every day after work, he had to go back to the rented cottage alone, facing the four walls and the lonely night. However, it was this loneliness and strangeness that made him begin to re-examine his life and values.
During his days in Qingxi, Zhao Yiming gradually discovered that although the people here lived a simple life, they lived a very happy life. They help each other, unite and love each other, and there is not much calculation and suspicion between them. This simple and pure human relationship surprised him and made him reflect on his life in the bustling city.
In the city, he is always busy socializing and socializing, and rarely has time to calm down and think about his life. And in Qingxi, loneliness and strangeness give him a rare opportunity to truly face his heart.
As time passed, Zhao Yiming began to try to fit into the life of this small town. He learned the local language and began to participate in community activities, greeting and chatting with his neighbors. He found that when he let go of his guards and prejudices, the people here were actually very kind and welcoming.
In the process, he also met many interesting people and things. For example, the old grandmother who was always smiling, would greet him warmly every time she saw him; There is also that warm-hearted uncle who often helps him solve some small problems in life. The kindness and warmth of these people warmed him and made him really understand the charm of this town.
During this time of living in Qingxi, Zhao Yiming not only learned how to get along with different people, but also discovered his innermost desires and pursuits. He began to cherish this hard-won loneliness and strangeness, because they gave him the opportunity to re-examine his life and find the true self that was overwhelmed by the hustle and bustle of the city.
When he returned to the city again, his friends were surprised to find that he had changed. His eyes were more determined and his smile was more sincere. They asked him about his experience in Qingxi, but Zhao Yiming just smiled faintly and said: "People can only live sincerely in a place where they have no relatives." ”
Yes, in that unaccompanied small town of Qingxi, Zhao Yiming found his lost sincerity and happiness. He understands that the true meaning of life is not how much material wealth you have, but whether you can sincerely face your heart and whether you can find a peaceful place of your own in the hustle and bustle.
And now, whenever night falls, Zhao Yiming still thinks of that distant town and those warm people. He knew that that time was short, but it left an eternal mark on his heart. It is the most valuable asset in his life, and it is also the source of motivation for him to continue to move forward on the road ahead.
