The taste of the countryside seems to be filled with rhythm, with winding roads
adorned with fragrant wildflowers, blended with the freshness of clover, and a
pale white "old cloth curtain" in the azure sky, mingling with the scent of
cooking smoke in twists and turns. Do not assess it with worldly eyes; this is
an authentic rural village. Do not speak of it with a mocking tone; it is a pure
paradise.
Having experienced only ordinary lives in bustling cities, people fail to
understand why rural children live such fulfilling lives. Do not inspect
seemingly ordinary rural life with a critical worldly perspective, thinking
yourself at the center of the world. You have forgotten what you once possessed:
a pair of eyes that appreciated beauty, now lost in the passage of time. The
countryside is the most authentic. Forget why so many film and television stars
are fascinated by rural moments, because it is the most genuine.
In pursuit of cars, houses, and money, the hurried figures in the city have
left everything behind. They have also experienced being out of place, but the
seasoned world effortlessly molds them into polished stones, and they accept it.
Looking back many years later, there is only a sense of familiarity. They have
paid the price of resistance and become familiar with the seasoned world, as the
initial feeling quietly fades away. However, the life in the countryside remains
a large teardrop, leaving permanent traces on rice paper once dissolved. Rural
children enjoy a world that is pure and natural. They have distinct edges,
adhere to principles, and do not have endless pursuits. In their eyes, the world
is serene. Only after being accustomed to ordinary lives do we realize that it
is eternal. Happiness is simple, living in a real world, enjoying each day
genuinely. The rising smoke from the kitchen gives you a warm feeling of home.
That is the true countryside!
Compared to the bustling and extraordinary cities, the countryside is more
peaceful. The air is tranquil with a faint fragrance. Walking on the small stone
paths covered in moss and dew, it brings a sense of relaxation and joy. The
grass calls, the violets call, and you can't help but step on this land and
enjoy the wonderful mood, instantly feeling refreshed. In the city, the busy
work overwhelms you, and this good mood and immense comfort will gradually fade
away. When the buckwheat flowers bloom, they are such inconspicuous yet simple
flowers. At this moment, you may unconsciously play with them, stand up, and
gaze at the undulating mountains and boundless sky, suddenly filled with an
inexplicable attachment.
Clear sky, yellow leaves, autumn colors on the edges, with cold mist on the
waves. The gentle and watery rural world, with small bridges, flowing water, and
humble homes, is as simple as can be. But in this "where the river is green as
blue when spring comes" Jiangnan village, it allows the bustling city to immerse
itself in the Jiangnan drizzle and reminisce in the warm rural sentiment. The
countryside is a road that never ends, a tender homeland that elevates ordinary
lives once again. |
