Write to my lovely neighbors

1. Think about it often

It's been three years since I moved to my current neighborhood. In small talk with people, I always talk about you neighbors who were originally in Yangzhen New District.

It's a bunch of unforgettable neighbors.

Several times I wanted to write about our group of people with a pen, so as to leave you with some memorable words, but I always picked up the pen and put it down, I really don't know where to start. It is so beautiful to recall, but when you think about it, it is all a daily trifle. I'm afraid it's going to become a journal when I write it.

Last night, I wanted to find a few photos of our neighbors together, but I searched through my phone and computer but couldn't find anything. Perhaps, our days together are like this: ordinary, ordinary enough to make everyone feel too accustomed, it is not worth taking a group photo or something.

2. What kind of people are they?

Born in the countryside, I grew up feeling the neighborly relationship in the countryside. Our village is very small, with only seven or eight families. It feels like the people of a village are their own. The neighbor Zou's grandmother, even if she steamed a cage of buns, or a few pieces of sugar, would give my mother a little. Or even if you have a bowl of tea at noon, you have to go door to door and ask everyone to come and eat tea together. Everyone is polite and harmonious.

No matter who has a happy event in the village, the adults of the whole village will come to help, and for a few days of helping, everyone will eat together. Even if it is a New Year's festival, if anyone kills a pig, it is necessary to invite every family in the village to eat a pig-killing meal together.

After joining the work, I also became a city person, had my own neighbors, and because I changed a few places, I had different neighbors in various batches. This is no longer the villagers of the countryside for generations, nor is it a familiar partner and a respected elder, but a stranger from all over the world, who has become a neighbor, upstairs and downstairs.

Recall that from the railway station - Shengli Street - Yangzhen New District - to the current Gangnam Meidi, every time you change a residence, you will follow a wave of neighbors. Come to think of it, the neighbors in these places, except for colleagues and relatives, have mostly become a passing cloud.

Only the neighbors of Yangzhen New District are different.

Most of the neighbors I'm talking about are in Building Eight, where we are. Building Eight is concentrated in one unit. There is no elevator in our neighborhood.

First of all, let's introduce you: Grandma and Grandpa, Ah Lu and Xiaoqin, Dingdong and Adam, Xiao Su and Xiao Yan, and of course, my family, these are our eighth building and a unit. There are also Xueying and kaiwu family, who belong to Building No. 5.

In fact, there are many neighbors in our community who are also familiar with other buildings.

Speaking of these people, each one is a vivid image in the mind. But for me to describe it to you, it is really difficult.

We were about 2000 years old and basically stayed at about the same time. Due to the needs of children going to school, or improving housing conditions, or working and living needs, some people have moved out of Yangzhen New District since 2018. At present, those who still live there are Ah Lu and Xiaoqin's family. Because of her daughter's study in Jiangnan, Xiaoqin and her daughter often did not live there.

3. At the flick of a finger, 20 years in the blink of an eye. These 20 years have left so many good memories...

Think about when you first moved in, the children were still small babies, but now, some have already participated in the work, and some have married and have children.

Do you remember those summers when we met to swim by the Jianxi Creek in Changkeng? Grandpa's water is the best, one by one with a lifebuoy, and Grandpa swims to the opposite shore with his hands in hand. There are many small river snails on the other side of the river beach, and I accidentally picked up a lot of them. At that time, except for Adam who had a passat, we were all on motorcycles. After swimming, everyone will have dinner together.

I still remember that one summer night, we went to the night tour of Shifoshan Mountain. Unfortunately, it was not long before the facilities of the Shifoshan Mountain Scenic Area were destroyed by flash floods, and there was no road. I miss the most beautiful moment in shifoshan mountain scenic spot, and I have always felt that it feels better than Xiyuan Gorge, at least a lot less commercial atmosphere, more pure natural scenery.

I remember that it was also a summer night when we went to the homestay of Xiyuan'an for a night. The frog chirping of that piece is still not forgotten. I don't know if the children remember the scene of catching frogs in the field. With the frog chirping, playing the scene of red two, I don't know if you have forgotten.

Whenever there is a happy event in the family, or a visit from a relative or friend from out of town, or a person's birthday, we will call these neighbors to get together. The atmosphere of drinking and guessing boxing, that is called a hilarity. In particular, Grandma guessed the technology of beer bottle caps, which makes people remember it vividly, and even the kaiwu brother who has one of the most alcoholics has lost to test the bottom line.

4. There is no unbroken feast under the heavens. The former neighbors have also slowly separated.

The environment of the community is getting more and more beautiful, and the building has an elevator. People living in buildings, face-to-face communication between people, less and less, people living in a corridor almost become strangers, nodding to each other, rarely interacting, less communicating with each other. The original habitual booing and warming and mutually correlated photos between neighbors seem to be blocked by cold security doors, and the neighborhood relationship that has nothing to do with the door is unconsciously getting farther and farther away from us.

It is not easy to meet you good neighbors in a lifetime.

It is worth cherishing together.
