Care about a person and fall in love with a city.

"Dear friends, the G 1208 train from Gaomi to Tianjin has started. I wish you a pleasant journey. "

Rows of trees and villages were soon left behind by the train, and my thoughts drifted away with the speeding train.

The relative I want to approach is my brother, who is two years younger than me. Although my brother and I were born of the same mother, our personalities are quite different. My brother has been smart since he was a child. He has always been crisp, agile and independent. Never drag my feet like me, stupid as a snail.

In the early 1970s and 1980s, the gap between urban and rural areas was still very large. As a local, every time I go to my uncle's house in the city, I feel as uncomfortable as getting an electric shock when I come into contact with my aunt's contemptuous eyes. I know, my aunt really despises these mud legs from the countryside.

Once I went out to my uncle's house and happened to meet my aunt's house for jiaozi. In that era of extreme material scarcity, eating a delicious jiaozi was simply more exciting than Chinese New Year. Because of her kindness, my aunt had to spoon half a bowl of jiaozi for each of us, and then sat there, probably to see how the farmers wolfed down those poor jiaozi.

But the stubborn brother only ate two bites, then put down the chopsticks, and at the same time hinted that I was stupid and put down the chopsticks and stopped eating.

After politely saying goodbye to my aunt, I was puzzled. I'm obviously hungry. Why don't I eat up those poor jiaozi?

My younger brother told me in an orderly way: "Sister, people should be ambitious when they are alive. It is good that we are rural people, but rural people have more self-esteem. We must not let the city people look down on us because of a meal. " We must study hard and wait until we are admitted to the university, so that people in the city can see that peasant families can live a good life like people in the city. "

My brother kept his promise and was successfully admitted to an ideal university many years later, fulfilling his dream for many years.

My brother not only studies well, but also is very clever. He can afford it and let go of everything in his family's field. The children of the poor came to power very early. At the age of five, my brother helped his parents catch insects, water and fertilize the fields.

I still remember clearly that at that time, we helped our parents water the sweet potato seedlings together, only to see my brother carefully shuttling through the fields with his little feet, his face red and round. However, my brother never complained that he was tired. As soon as he bent down, he filled the pit with water steadily.

And I either spilled water on my body or spilled water all over the floor, and I could only watch my brother sigh. Rolled cuffs and high-rolled trouser legs made him try to get rid of the appearance of a grown-up.

In the second semester of Senior Two, my brother became lazy and my mother was very angry. In order to make him work hard to make money and make him strong as soon as possible, he gritted his teeth and sent his brother to the timber market, let him work with his father and transport wood to others to make money.

That holiday, the heavy wood was unceremoniously pressed on my brother's tender shoulder, and he finally thoroughly experienced the hardships and difficulties of making money.

Although the shoulder was cracked by the sun, the stronger brother didn't say a word. When the mother touched her two red, swollen and chapped shoulders with great distress, the younger brother cried: "Mom, I will study hard." Mother didn't say anything, but nodded vigorously.

From then on, my brother studied hard and finally walked out of the countryside and went to a broader world.

When my brother left his hometown, my father and two uncles went to the station to see him off on behalf of the whole family. At that time, my father took out an aluminum lunch box, gave all his savings to his younger brother and said to him, "Son, don't blame me and your mother for their incompetence. We have to stay here with you. " In the future, you can only rely on yourself to work hard outside. "

My father's eyes were red, but my brother didn't cry. Instead, he told his father categorically: "Dad, don't worry, no matter where I go, I will never forget my roots. Wherever I go, I will not lose face to our farmers. "

My brother didn't break his word. After more than ten years of hard work, he finally got his favorite career and established a happy and harmonious family. But as he himself said, no matter how wonderful the outside world is, it can't stop the wanderer's attachment to his hometown. It is the yearning of leaves for roots, and it is the sweetest and warmest dream that always haunts children's hearts.

Later, my aunt asked my brother to borrow money to buy a house, and my brother agreed without hesitation. He told me earnestly: "People live in the East for 30 years and in the West for 30 years. Whenever you are in trouble, you may need others, so take a long-term view and relax. Don't underestimate anyone. "

Every time my brother goes back to his hometown, the first thing he does is to visit relatives and friends, visit the old people in the neighbor's house, get familiar with the local accent and feel the deep homesickness. His success also stems from his grateful heart. As long as conditions permit, he will never forget to visit his teachers and classmates.

He also has a pet phrase: I am the son of a native farmer. Please don't talk about it if you don't like it. Look, this is my brother.

Last night, my father told me: "The weather forecast says that it will be cloudy in Tianjin tomorrow, with a temperature of 36 degrees. It's similar to ours. Your brother is afraid of hot summer, but fortunately the weather is not too hot, so we are relieved. " I suddenly remembered a sentence: I really care about someone and fall in love with a city!

It's been four or five years since I last came to Tianjin. I wonder what has changed in this beautiful city where my brother lives.

"Mom, stop writing, Tianjin Railway Station is here."

Oh, dear brother, I'm coming. Beautiful Tianjin, here I am!
