In a small mountain village in Hunan, there is a college student named Xiao Li. For the sake of his studies and dreams, he left home to study in a big city far from his hometown. Although Xiao Li's hometown is remote, the villagers are simple and kind, and everyone supports each other and lives a peaceful and happy life.
This year, Xiao Li returned to his hometown during the winter vacation. He found that the elders of the village had prepared a grand blessing ceremony to welcome him.
This ritual is very traditional and requires the whole village to do it together. The elders told Xiao Li that according to the rules of the village, the blessing must be recited by a respected person in the village to express their blessings and expectations for the returning students.
However, this year the situation in the village was somewhat peculiar. The old chief of the village was not in good health and could not preside over the ceremony; The other elders were also unable to participate for various reasons. Seeing that the blessing ceremony was about to come to an end, Xiao Li couldn't sit still.
Xiao Li is well aware of the importance of this ceremony to the villagers. During the days when he was away from home to study, the villagers gave his family a lot of support and help. This time he returned to his hometown, hoping to do his part to repay the villagers. So, he took the initiative to ask Ying to complete the recitation of the blessing on behalf of the old village chief.
At first, the elders felt that Xiao Li was too young and worried that he would not be up to the task. But Xiao Li said firmly: "Although I am young, I have participated in many activities in school and have some hosting experience. I will do my best to live up to everyone's expectations. ”
Seeing that Xiao Li was so sincere, the elders agreed to his request. They told him the contents of the blessing and taught him how to recite it in the traditional way. After some preparation, Xiao Li gradually mastered the essentials.
On the day of the blessing ceremony, the whole village gathered under the big tree at the entrance of the village. Xiao Li was dressed in neat clothes and stood in front of everyone. He took a deep breath and recited the blessing with full emotion and a sonorous voice.
Bless our dear hometown, good weather and abundant harvest; I wish our dear fellow villagers good health and a happy ...... familyAs the blessing was recited, the villagers' faces were filled with joyful smiles. They were full of emotion and felt that this young man was really promising.
After the ceremony, the villagers gathered around to congratulate Xiao Li. They praised Xiao Li's outstanding performance and thanked him for the glory he brought to the village. Xiao Li said modestly: "This is what I should do, as long as everyone is happy." ”
Since then, Xiao Li has become a popular person in the village. Everyone followed his example and encouraged the children to study hard and return to their hometown in the future. And Xiao Li is also determined to use his knowledge and ability to make greater contributions to his hometown.
This story spread throughout the mountain village and became a good story. It teaches us that no matter where we are, we should be mindful of our roots and responsibilities. As long as we have gratitude and dedication, we can make our hometown a better place.
