The return tide came ahead of schedule, and the rural areas were deserted after the Spring Festival

The "return tide" of the rural New Year is coming ahead of schedule1, and the atmosphere of the rural New Year is gradually fading.

On the eve of the Chinese New Year, the prosperity of their hometown in the countryside has gradually disappeared from their memories. In the past, lanterns were hung in every house, and there was a strong New Year's atmosphere everywhere, with my father making rice cakes and my mother making rice balls, and all kinds of wonderful pictures were still in front of me. But now, because the old people are not busy, the young people have ignored the New Year's customs, and the atmosphere of the New Year in the countryside is getting weaker and weaker, and the return to the hometown has lost the luster of the New Year, but has more filial piety. Maybe just by spending time with my family, I can go home earlier, which is why so many people come back.

As for the early return to the hometown, we are not easy to perceive another phenomenon: with the progress of the times, the customs of the countryside have gradually been forgotten, the image of the elderly has become scarcer, and the atmosphere of the Chinese New Year in the countryside has gradually dissipated. So, can we reflect on how to continue the traditional culture of the countryside and keep the flavor of the New Year forever?

2. Embarrassing interpersonal relationships.

Every year during the Chinese New Year, faced with a long visit to relatives and friends, the gossip of the seven aunts and eight aunts has become a "trouble" in the hearts of many people. Salary, income, urging marriage, having children, these are all things that come up often. The true feelings between relatives and friends are gradually replaced by falsehood, and the pure friendship is diluted in comparing and showing off each other. Such hypocrisy made Lou Cheng a little embarrassed, he didn't want to stay here longer, and returned to the city early.

3. Have free time.

After the Spring Festival, the number of walks between relatives and friends decreased, replaced by greetings and simple visits. For many young people, the interest in the Spring Festival has become less and less, and it is difficult for anything fun to happen. Instead of staying in the village, it is better to go home early, work in the city, and earn more money.

4. Economic pressure.

Today's young people face a heavy burden of mortgages, car loans, and children's education, which makes it difficult for them to ease down. Coupled with the recent economic downturn, his wallet is getting tighter. The company's boss also put more pressure on the younger employees to go back to work early. Therefore, without the slightest hesitation, the young people decided to return to their hometowns and devote themselves to the next work as quickly as possible.

Conclusion: The early arrival of the homecoming tide is not accidental, but an attitude and pursuit of life. From the dilution of the flavor of the New Year, to the embarrassment of interpersonal relationships, and even the financial worries about the future, they are all entanglements and entanglements between rural and urban, traditional and modern, family and reality. Perhaps, in such a scene, we can also see the optimistic attitude of young people in life and the spirit of struggle. Let's follow this tide of homecoming and think about the meaning and value of life together!
