When you hear an accent like a local accent in a foreign land, you will be very excited to ask if the other person is also from the same hometown.

parents

my mother is an amazing person. In fact, I think all parents are amazing people. Why do you say that, because they seem to be born with tentacles that can detect the emotions of their children.

I just hung up another phone call from my mother because my boss had just typed back the changes to the plan and rewrote it. Ten minutes before I got off work, as soon as I got back to work, my mother's phone came over.

I silently pressed the red reject button, and my mother sent Wechat to ask, "it's time to get off work soon. Have you eaten yet?" I replied that I would get off work immediately and eat as soon as I got off work. In fact, I don't know if I am still in the mood for dinner today. Not only that, it means that I have to stay up late and work overtime every few days before I go home. I remember the last time they came to Beijing to see me, they knew that I always ordered takeout, so they wanted to come and cook for me for a few days to feed my fragile takeout stomach. but I didn't have time to connect with them, so I had to take a chauffeured taxi to pick them up. I didn't see them until I got home from overtime in the evening. when they are in Beijing these days, I basically work overtime every day. Except on weekends, they wait for me at home every day. They are strangers outside, and they can't go out for a walk by themselves. I am not at ease, but I have no time to accompany them, so I can only leave them at home. I feel very guilty.

Beijing is particularly cold in winter this year.

I don't know if it's because of homesickness.

my mother often reports to me about the situation at home: today, the weather is fine. I bathed the cat and let them bask in the sun. The magnolia on the balcony has been watered, waiting for it to blossom. It must be very fragrant and beautiful. You will come back soon. All the bedding has been changed. The two cats will still squat at the door of the toilet and wait for me to rub me after the shower. I should miss you, too. Oh, yes, your uncle wrote some new words and sent them to our family. Today, taking advantage of the good weather, I will soon go to do New year's goods.

every time she describes to me what her family looks like, I feel like I'm back in high school and college, as if the sunshine at home came to me on a high-speed train. but at the moment, I dare not tell her that I stayed up last night and went to work again with dark circles under my eyes. I didn't have time to look at the sun. I took a chauffeured taxi every day just to get some sleep in the car. I always hoped that there would be a traffic jam, so that I could sleep a little longer. When the driver called me at the place, it almost became an alarm.

I don't understand homesickness in the past, so I want to leave my hometown quickly.

but the longer I get, the more homesick I get.

homesickness seems to be becoming a seasonal food.

when you hear an accent like a local accent in a foreign country, you will be excited to ask

whether the other person is from the same hometown.

the local accent is still the most important item in our suitcase.

every Spring Festival, more than 10 million people can be evacuated from Beijing alone, while the total population of my hometown adds up to only more than 9 million. But the place where we started, the hometown in the geographical sense, can no longer make us feel the fear of homesickness.

We changed from two dogs to Michael, from Cuihua to Mary.

our hometown, which has been transformed into a face as beautiful and stereotyped as many cities, has caught us by surprise. We suddenly find that when we return to our hometown every winter, we can't even find our families and schools that have read books.

this nowhere to put homesickness, under the catalysis of a short film called "this city only winter", turned into thoughts and memories about the four seasons of my hometown:


this is a video released by Didi Premier Taxi before the Spring Festival. At the time of the collective migration of the Chinese people, it tells more about the spiritual return of our physical behavior of going home.

I sometimes wish I could go back in time, as written in the three lines.

the river retreats far away, snowflakes return to the sky, the train returns to your hometown, the wrinkles on your face and neck are ironed, your white hair is dyed black again, you carry my schoolbag for me again, kiss my forehead, those who disappear come back to my life again, and you will always be young.

now I am so tired that I can only recharge my batteries when I go home so that I can get warmer this winter. A few days ago, I dreamt that I was back to my hometown. The scene should be the playground and the main building of the middle school. I ran to the class on the fourth floor. I seemed to be late, but I always couldn't get to the class. I ran farther and farther. Then I woke up and found that I was late for work. This time I really had to run, and I smiled helplessly. the scene I wanted to achieve in that dream was far away, but the work desk would arrive soon.

my mother sent me a picture of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal winding through the center of my home, and now there are a lot of red lanterns hanging on the trees in Beijing. Unfortunately, the lights of high-rise buildings are too bright to be conspicuous. To think that after saying this sentence, I am simply talking about myself. I am those small light bulbs, glowing and hot, and the brightness is particularly warm in my hometown. In a big city, there are too many beautiful lights, so I am not very conspicuous. they always want me to go back to work in my hometown.Contacts, do not have to pay rent, life will be much easier, but I did not choose to go home, after all, friends are in Beijing, home and high school classmates are not the same, it is difficult to communicate. for work, I'd like to try again in Beijing.

I believe that a lot of people do so, so how can we re-establish road signs for those who are returning home? To replace the hometown in the material sense with a spiritual home, this may be a "way home" that a traveller can find for himself.

Don't let our hometown become the place where remembers your name but forgets what you look like .

in the spring and autumn of our hometown, it is very difficult for us to have a chance to go back home. Only in winter can we return home from a year of busyness. Winter in our hometown, no matter how cold it is, may be the warmest season in our hearts.

search the memory, check the bottom of the box, the hometown of spring, summer, autumn and winter,

you must also have a lot of your own stories to tell.
