When your parents are there, your home is there. In the absence of his parents, there is only a way back in life. I didn't go anywhere for the Chinese New Year this year, I was in my own home, spending the New Year alone. I'm forty-nine years old, I'm not old, but I'm getting quieter. My daughter is in college in Hong Kong, and she only has seven days off for the Chinese New Year, and she doesn't come back for the Chinese New Year.
My brothers and sisters all said that I should go to their house for the Chinese New Year, but I didn't want to go. Visiting relatives and friends, people are sophisticated, and I hate these more and more.
I was the youngest of my parents' children. If my parents were still around, I would definitely go home every year to spend the New Year with them.
I used to sometimes see others take their children back to see their parents during the New Year's holidays, and I was very envious. I didn't have much experience taking my kids home to see my parents because my parents were gone in my 30s. I only took my daughter back to see my parents once when she was one year old, and my daughter never saw her grandparents again.
Why don't you even go to your siblings' house? It's not that I don't go to their house, but I don't want to go during the Chinese New Year. If you think about it, there will be a lot of guests at home during the Chinese New Year.
Many of my sister's guests were from her husband's side, and many were guests from her daughter-in-law's side, and I didn't know any of them.
Some people say, then why don't you go back to your brother's house for the New Year? Doesn't my brother represent his mother's family? But let's think about it, whose brother's family is his mother's family now? Which person's brother can represent the parents?
Nowadays, is our relationship with our brother and sister-in-law separated from our relationship with our parents?
Many of my brother's guests were from my sister-in-law's side and my brother's daughter-in-law's side.
The brothers and sisters are all old, they all have daughters-in-law or sons-in-law, and many grandchildren have been born. Everyone has to live their own life, everyone has to take care of their own family's sophistication, and I don't want to squeeze into their lives during the New Year.
During this time, I was busy working alone for more than a week, cleaning the house completely, drying the bacon early, and stuffing the refrigerator with vegetables. After I got all this done, I easily waited for the New Year.
On the morning of the Chinese New Year, I started cooking at ** o'clock, and I also fried six dishes by myself. Although there is only one person, one person also has to have a New Year's ceremony!
After lunch, I went hiking in the afternoon. The New Year, in fact, there are a lot of people who climb the mountain, I climb the mountain every year, and the mountain is very lively!
After eating and washing up in the evening, I sat in front of the heater early, turned on my mobile phone, watched Douyin, read the headlines, brushed **, wrote articles, practiced pen calligraphy, played the flute, and easily spent the day of the New Year!
During the first month, if the weather is good, I still climb the mountain every day. I think doing these things is more beneficial than visiting relatives and friends, and more sophisticated!
When people are old, health is the only most important thing!
It's hard to buy people's health! Isn't it?
