Take a picture of the New Year's flavor

It's almost the Chinese New Year, I, a girl from Northeast China, is finally going to set foot on the way home, although I have been working in Guangzhou for several years, but whenever the Chinese New Year is approaching, the feeling of missing my hometown is always indescribable.

Walking out of Guangzhou Railway Station, a familiar and unfamiliar atmosphere came to my face. The station was crowded with people, dragging their luggage and walking in a hurry. The Spring Festival, this annual spectacular scene, is once again presented in front of my eyes.

As I walked towards the station square, the noise around me gradually sounded, the cries of vendors, the train schedules on the radio, and the dialect of my hometown, which made up this unique scene. The smell of instant noodles filled the air, reminding me of the smell of Chinese New Year when I was a child.

In one corner of the square, I saw a group of young people gathered around, holding mobile phones with expressions of excitement and anticipation on their faces. I suspect they may be like me, people who are going home for the New Year. Although we have never known each other, we share the joy and anticipation of returning home at this special moment.

I continued on to the waiting hall. The ** here is more dense, and everyone's face is full of arrows. I sat down in a corner, looked at the familiar and unfamiliar faces, and couldn't help but feel emotional.

I remembered the scene of the Chinese New Year when I was a child. At that time, our family sat around the fire, waiting for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. The fire was reflected on everyone's faces, and the warmth and family affection were so strong. Now, I have grown up and worked far away in Guangzhou, but the longing for home and the attachment to my relatives have always been the same.

With the arrival of the train, people began to board the train one after another. I dragged my luggage and stepped onto the train home. The carriage was crowded, and everyone's face was full of joy and anticipation to go home. I found a seat and sat down, watching the scenery fly by outside the window, and I couldn't help but feel emotional.

The train started slowly and left the Guangzhou Railway Station. I closed my eyes and let my thoughts drift with the jolts of the train. I think of the days of struggle in Guangzhou in those years, how many setbacks and difficulties I have experienced, but whenever I encounter setbacks, it is home that gives me the warmest comfort and strength.

I don't know how long it took me to open my eyes. The view from the window has ceased to be a bustling city, but has become vast and peaceful. I know, it's getting closer to home. My mood is starting to get excited.

Finally, the train arrived at the small station in my hometown. I walked out of the station and breathed in the familiar, fresh air. Even though the weather outside was a little cold, my heart was warm. Because I know that home is the warmest harbor, and there are my dear parents and relatives waiting for me to return.

I walked along the familiar path home. The trees on both sides of the road have been redressed as if to welcome me home. When the neighbors saw me coming back, they greeted me warmly, asking me when I was back, how my work was, and so on. These familiar voices and faces made me feel incredibly intimate and reassured.

When I walked into the house, my mother greeted me and took my luggage. I saw a smile on her face that I hadn't seen in a long time, and that smile was full of joy and relief. Dad also came out of the house, patted me on the shoulder, and said, "It's good to come back." "A simple sentence, but it makes me feel extremely warm and happy.

In the evening, the whole family sat around the fire, enjoying a delicious Chinese New Year's Eve dinner and chatting about homely things. This long-lost warmth and family affection makes me feel extremely satisfied and happy. I think of those years in Guangzhou, although the living conditions are much better than at home, but the warmth and happiness of family reunion have always been missing.

As night fell, the atmosphere in the house grew stronger. While watching the Spring Festival Gala program on TV, we enjoyed that rare reunion time. At this special moment, the companionship and love of my family has become my most valuable asset.

It was late at night, and the whole family fell asleep. I lay on my bed, looking out the window at the starry sky, my heart filled with gratitude and happiness. Because I know that no matter where I am, home will always be my warmest harbor and home. On this beautiful night, I made a New Year's wish: I wish my family good health, peace and happiness; I hope that I can achieve more in my work; I hope that our family can always be full of love and warmth; I hope our lives can get better and better!
