These childhood memories, when I looked up at the scars on my knees that had gradually disappeared, suddenly surfaced in front of me. Time has passed ten years.
When I was about twenty-two, I was an ordinary little girl when I was eleven. Whenever the teacher reads my composition in Chinese class, I bury my head in my arms, and my heart is as sweet as honey. After school, my good friends and I went to the stall outside the school gate to buy 1/1 gadgets to eat, such as Tang monk meat figs, caterpillar marshmallows, and my favorite skewers.
During the summer and winter vacations, I, like Taeko, eagerly look forward to going to the countryside. And this wish will surely come true. I like the fresh air and green eyes of the countryside. And those wild fields. In the evening after dinner in the countryside in summer, everyone carried the "cold board" outside the house to enjoy the shade. The sky was like a deep blue, not completely black. And the call of summer insects; sleeping on the "cold board", looking at the stars in the sky, they are actually moving slowly, and sometimes there is a flash of lightning in the clear night sky, I am startled, I thought it was some kind of ghost in the sky, but the adults hehe told me that it was "Grain Flower", which means that there will be a good harvest in that year.
Now that I think about it, it seems like a long time from now. It turns out that the little bits and pieces of childhood are actually the same for everyone.
It's just that I am in the city now. I don't know if I will, like Taeko, yearn for rural life in a few years, and finally fall into its embrace. Just like when the grandmother and Taeko mentioned that she wanted her to marry in the village, Taeko thought to herself: I always say that the village is good, but when I really let me settle down in the village, will I have such great courage? Am I willing to live like that? Or this kind of thinking is not something to be confused about, the key lies in the person beside him.
In today's China, in the current time, how many people from the countryside are eager to come to the city, and the wave of migrant workers is getting more and more enthusiastic year by year, which makes people who used to live and work in the countryside become uneasy. Yearning for more every year. They went south to Shenzhen and Guangzhou to work, in order to see the elegance of the city and live a so-called "urban" life; or to have a richer income in the city than in the countryside? Or in the end, still hold the traditional Chinese thought of returning to the roots, and finally return to the hometown of the countryside and the embrace of nature?
