I am so happy to see my children and grandchildren come home and be reunited!

Mrs. Li knew that she was about to see her children and grandchildren and a family of five, and she couldn't suppress her joy in her heart, she prepared the ingredients early, regardless of the snowflakes floating in the sky, and stood at the intersection excitedly, especially when she thought of the little great-grandson who had not yet met, she was even more happy on her face, and she forgot that the snowflakes were falling. At this moment, the expectation in her heart overcame everything, and she completely forgot the loneliness she had had.

It turns out that in the Qinling Mountains, there is a Zhangjia Village, the Li family is a single family, Li Laohan has been dead for many years, his daughter-in-law is in Xi'an to bring children to his grandson, and his son works in the surrounding area to supplement his life, which is rare to see once or twice a year. Although Mrs. Li is over 80 years old, she has a strong body, and has always stayed in the countryside, reluctant to give up the old house and the small courtyard of the farmhouse, and often goes to talk to the old man underground, so as to relieve the perennial loneliness. The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and the grandson asked for leave in advance, and said that he would go back to the village to see the old lady together before the New Year, and then return to Xi'an for the New Year.

Snowflakes fluttered down, like countless white elves dancing in the air. In such a cold winter day, Aunt Li's heart is warmer than ever. Although she is over eighty years old, her face has long been covered with traces of time, but her eyes are still as bright as stars, revealing her deep longing and expectation for her family.

Aunt Li's grandson works in Xi'an and is so busy that he rarely returns to his hometown in the mountain village. But today, he is about to return to this small mountain village away from the hustle and bustle of the city, a place where he once lived and grew up, with his parents, daughter-in-law and nearly one-year-old son. He is a sensible and filial child, a few years ago, he took a leave of absence three days in advance, to bring the whole family and grandma to a big reunion. Aunt Li got the news early and prepared the ingredients, and she decided to have a hearty meal for her children and grandchildren to celebrate the rare reunion of four generations in the past few years.

The left-behind elderly in the countryside are really rare to be reunited with their children and grandchildren for a few days a year. It seems that all year round, that's all there is to it. That's the reality.
