In this society, the human touch is getting weaker and weaker, and people come and go in a hurry. For money, for life, they keep running forward, and some people don't even have time to stop and think.
I especially miss my childhood. The image of my cousin Shemei (cousin in her 10s), who is far away from my home, panting and carrying a basket to deliver melons to my family, is engraved in my mind. When I was a child, I followed my mother to visit my grandmother (my mother's aunt), and my mother carried a basket with white bread and sometimes fried twist flowers. As soon as I entered my grandmother's village, my mother greeted my mother's aunt and aunt warmly, and the warm breeze of family affection came to my face. During festivals and singing, my mother went back to her parents' house. At that time, people were very poor, they could not eat enough, and they could not wear warm clothes, but they had a strong human touch and family affection.
I distinctly remember that there was a small river in our village, and from the field home crossed an embankment. At that time, it was very difficult to pull the rack car up the embankment. When my brother was pulling the cart up the embankment, my father's friend Guo Youshu sometimes waited there in advance to push the cart for my brother. At that time, people were very simple, enthusiastic, and willing to do good deeds, and when someone was in trouble, the yard was crowded with comforting and helpful neighbors.
Now it's all money, money, money, and it's encroached upon into the nucleus of the family. If you have money, you are your father, if you have milk, you are your mother, and if you don't have money, your children will dislike you, and your parents will also dislike you, and sometimes they don't care about you, let alone the relationship between brothers and sisters. It is the norm for cousins and cousins not to contact each other for many years.
The most precious family affection in life has now become worthless, and everyone calculates their own interests, which is not in line at all.
I didn't do anything. The tradition of father's kindness and filial piety, brotherhood, friendship and brotherhood is almost gone. Everything is based on real money and interests, between fathers, sons, mothers and daughters, brothers and sisters.
Material life is abundant, and selfish people are more. Is it really good that basic family ethics are being subverted?
