In the evening, the streets are lit up with neon lights, adding a bit of romance and mystery to this busy city. The small shop on the corner is crowded with people, either choosing ingredients for dinner, or stopping to chat, enjoying a rare leisurely time.
In this bustling crowd, two middle-aged men are particularly eye-catching. Dressed in casual suits and each holding a cigarette, they strolled the streets leisurely. These two people, one is Lao Zhang from the north, and the other is Lao Li from the south. Although they come from different provinces, their love for cigarettes coincides.
Lao Zhang took a deep breath of the cigarette in his hand, and said with an intoxicated face: "This cigarette is really the pride of our northerners." The taste is mellow and smoky, just like the character of our northerners, straightforward and atmospheric. His words were filled with pride and pride.
Lao Li smiled slightly, took a deep breath of the cigarette in his hand, and slowly exhaled: "The smoke in the south is delicate and soft. Look at this smoke, rising in a curling manner, like a woman in the water town in the south of the Yangtze River, gentle and elegant. His words reveal a deep love for Southern culture.
The two chatted as they walked, exchanging cigarettes in their hands from time to time, savoring the tobacco flavor of their respective hometowns. Their conversation caught the attention of those around them, and soon several young people gathered around them, curiously asking about cigarette stories.
Seeing this, Lao Zhang became more interested and began to talk endlessly about the history and culture of tobacco in the north. He mentioned that tobacco cultivation in the north has a long history and good quality, and is known as the "national tobacco". He said proudly: "The tobacco in our north not only has a mellow taste, but also has a unique aroma, which makes people have an endless aftertaste. ”
Not to be outdone, Lao Li took over the conversation and began to talk about the characteristics of tobacco in the south. He mentioned that tobacco in the south is grown in fertile soil in water towns, which has been carefully cultivated to give it a delicate and soft taste. He said with a smile: "Southern tobacco, just like us southerners, pays attention to details and quality, and pursues a refined attitude to life." ”
The young people around listened with relish, nodding their heads from time to time. They were deeply attracted by the stories of the two uncles, as if they also tasted the tobacco flavor of their respective hometowns.
Just then, a young woman stepped forward, holding a book on tobacco culture in China. She smiled and said, "The two uncles said it so well, and I am also very interested in Chinese tobacco culture. This book records the characteristics and representative brands of tobacco in each province, and we can take a look at it together. ”
Everyone sat around and looked through the books. The book is an eye-opener with a detailed description of the tobacco culture and representative brands of each province. Lao Zhang and Lao Li were even more excited, and they found that the tobacco brand in their hometown actually occupied an important place in the book.
Lao Zhang said with emotion: "This book is really good, it allows us to better understand the breadth and profundity of Chinese tobacco culture. It seems that we should not only taste the deliciousness of cigarettes, but also inherit and carry forward this unique culture. ”
Lao Li also nodded and said: "Yes, the tobacco in each province has its own unique charm. We should cherish this cultural heritage and let more people know and love it. ”
Everyone agreed, they were infected by this profound cultural heritage, and they also had a deeper understanding and love for their hometown culture.
As the night wore on, the street lights grew brighter and brighter. After saying goodbye to the young people, Lao Zhang and Lao Li returned to their respective homes. Their hearts are full of emotion and hope, and they believe that while inheriting and carrying forward tobacco culture, they can also let more people understand and love their hometown culture.
This evening on the streets, because of a chance encounter and a conversation about cigarettes, becomes more warm and meaningful. People feel the charm and warm power of culture here, and they also re-understand their hometown and motherland. This kind of perception and resonance will accompany them through a longer journey of life.
