When the year of the dragon is approaching, the hard work and anxiety of the whole year will disappear in the sound of firecrackers.
When I got home from work in the evening, there was a very delicious braised vegetable at the entrance of the community, which was open every day rain or shine, but I didn't do business yesterday and didn't see anyone today. asked the side, "I've cleaned up and gone back to my hometown for the New Year."
The most beautiful road a person has walked in his life is always the way home.
The Spring Festival is approaching, and it is time to return home again. No matter whether the year is safe or bumpy, smooth or hard, I always have to go home all year round and raise a glass of wine at the reunion banquet to comfort this year. Not going home during the Spring Festival is the same as having a table full of delicacies from the mountains and seas but no wine: boring and distorted. 
Life is sometimes very strange: when I was young, I looked at my surroundings and looked unpleasant, and my parents only said that they were just watching the wind in their ears, and they were bent on running away to the outside world. It was only after being beaten by the Jianghu society in the megacities of Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, walking through detours that could not be avoided at all, and suffering large and small losses, that he realized that his hometown was not so unpopular. Even though I have bought a house and become a family in other places, I still can't help but want to go home during the Spring Festival.
China's urbanization process has only been in the past two or three decades: in every big city, the indigenous people who were born and raised do not make up a majority, as evidenced by the fact that the roads in the urban areas are so empty that they can almost drag race during the Spring Festival every year. Michael and Linda, who have been glamorous in high-end office buildings all year round, will become Zixuan and Xinyi on the way back to their hometowns when the Spring Festival is approaching. The big city is where they live and work hard, but it is not the place where they should stay during the Spring Festival. As for those who are still working overtime on Chinese New Year's Eve and the first day of the new year, they are either indispensable positions, or social animals among social animals. Distance produces beauty, perhaps it is the truth. Nostalgia has always been a lingering complex for ChineseIt was so in ancient times, and it still is today. The way home, no matter how difficult it is, is easy to walk. For those who have worked hard all year, whether it is a year of good luck or exhaustion, returning home is the best consolation. The poet Yu Guangzhong wrote in "Four Rhymes of Homesickness", "The taste of drunkenness is the taste of homesickness." Perhaps from the moment one sets foot on the way home, one is already in a state of drunkenness under excitement. 
After returning to their hometown, getting together with childhood friends and old classmates a few times is probably the established arrangement of the vast majority of returnees: to see the traces left by the years on each other, and to sigh to each other that it is not easy to survive and work hard outside. In the drunken haze, return to the good old days when I was not anxious and did not roll in. 
The life experience of reunion after a long absence, Du Fu felt deeply. After many years of farewell, he met with his old friend Wei Bashi, and the poems were so emotional that they could be called the mouths of similar scenes for more than a thousand years, "Life does not meet, move like participating in business", "When can a young man be strong, and his sideburns are already gray......".In such a situation and atmosphere, the best catalyst for conveying feelings is only wine. The question and answer has not been reached, and the children are drunk. The night rain cuts the spring leeks, and the yellow sorghum is freshly cooked. The Lord said that the meeting was difficult, and it was tiring in one fell swoop. Shizhen is not drunk, and the feeling is deliberately long. 
When I was young, I got together and drank freely, and most of them tended to beer: drink fast. But as you get older, you usually change from beer to liquor – anything that really makes adults want to stop loving things often doesn't make people feel good in their mouths; Only after gradually adapting to and getting used to this kind of stimulation can people experience another kind of comfort after discomfort and another pleasure after stimulation, which beer cannot provide. Baijiu is the first etiquette of Chinese men, and it is not groundless.
Unlike working wine bureaus, gatherings with old friends tend to focus on the mellow aroma and taste of the wine itself, and more on the price point of bluffing. It is no longer necessary to "play a circle" one by one, and it is no longer necessary to persuade you to drink more, and it is okay to indulge in greedy cups if you can drink, and you can also stop ...... if you can't drinkIt's all about pleasure and fun. 
Although it is pleasant to have a drink with friends, the most important meal when you go home during the Spring Festival is the reunion banquet at home. The family banquet is always the most relaxed, casual and intimate banquet. Most people usually either fill their stomachs with takeout and pre-made dishes, or laugh and socialize on occasions when they have to go, and may not remember what dishes were put in the mouth after the feast. At the end of the year, when you return home, your parents have already prepared all kinds of dishes, just waiting for you to pick up chopsticks. A family feast is actually a bespoke meal of the highest order: The dishes in the restaurants outside are the same, but the ones in your own home are different. Family feasting is not only the taste of food, but also the taste of family affection, the taste of childhood, and the taste of relaxation. 
Who doesn't know how to eat out to save the hassle? What are the options for Chinese and Western food hot pot? Who doesn't know the hassle of cooking at home? Choosing vegetables, buying vegetables, washing vegetables, cutting vegetables, cooking ......It takes time and effort to get down a meal. But sometimes in life, such troubles cannot be missing. At home, time is no longer the usual cost of every second of the matter, but a precious thing that needs to be slowed down and savored: a reunion banquet is ready again, a year has passed, and the parents are a year older. There are far fewer people who cook for you than there are people who invite you to dinner. In "Round Table Pie", Dou Wentao asked Chen Xiaoqing, "You have eaten so many delicacies, do you think the best food is the best?" "At home. So in "A Bite of China", in the episode dedicated to "banquet", there is a narration in it that will make people feel deeply:"Family feasting is the ultimate in cooking, but it has a meaning that goes far beyond food。"Especially the family banquet of the Spring Festival, whether it is fried or fried at home, enjoyed or entertained, what is eaten is the joy of reunion and reunion. 
It's just that there is no banquet without wine, so the wine at the family banquet has a meaning that is not inferior to the dishes。The father is not the boss, the brother is not the customer, the family banquet is not a business banquet, and there is no need to show off in front of the family. Drinking thousands of sky-high prices of wine is far less comfortable than the wine that I usually drink all the time. And a glass of wine on the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner table is enough to comfort the servants for a whole year. The wine at the family banquet during the Spring Festival is different from the usual wine: the old year is gone, the new year is restarted, regardless of men, women and children, rich and poor, hundreds of millions of Chinese people have surprisingly the same wish during the New Year, but they just hope that the whole family will be harmonious and everything will be prosperous. That's Quanxing. Yes, it has been there for the past year: it has been on the spring wedding banquet, it has been on the summer school banquet, it has been on the autumn birthday party, and now it can be seen everywhere at the Spring Festival reunion banquet at the end of the year. The New Year's flavor of the Spring Festival may be lighter than when I was a child, but the homesickness of "missing like a white horse, parting from myself, and not stopping" has always been there, just like Quanxing, which has excellent quality and long-lasting reputation, has never been absent from the dining table of the family banquet. What is the best Chinese banquet wine? The answer lies in the rich Quanxing wine in the glass. After experiencing the hardships of the Year of the Rabbit, everyone hopes that the Spring Festival will be a watershed from the trough to the peak when the Year of the Dragon is approaching. The hard work and anxiety of the whole year will disappear in the sound of firecrackers. Go home, pick up a cup of Quanxing at the reunion family banquet, and laugh after drinking it all: I salute this past and upcoming year! No matter when, as long as everything is happy, it is the best Spring Festival. Before the Year of the Dragon, on the occasion of reunion, Vientiane is renewed, just like the flying dragon leaping, like the sun in the sky. The product is prosperous, and everything is prosperous.
