The seeds of elm trees are light golden yellow. They are called Yu Qian. They are steamed in a pot with corn flour, and then mixed with blanched beans, which is "bitter buds". It tastes so-so. Only grandma and grandma like to eat this kind of food at home. The reserved program is to tell past stories while eating. My grandmother said that when there was a lack of food in one year, she climbed five steps for ten minutes with an empty stomach, and it might take half an hour to walk back and forth ―― in such an era, of course, things on the elm trees must not be let go. As for the taste, anything is delicious when you are hungry. There are countless such things. Because of the hunger of that year, she can hardly taste the taste until now. It is estimated that her taste is a little degraded, and the dishes are basically chopped and fried with salt ―― but when it comes to taste degradation, I doubt many people will. After all, many housewives in the village have bad cooking skills, which can make people's taste deteriorate, and there is nothing you can do. This is the same reason as children's amnesia after severe mental trauma.

My mother finally did some research on cooking. When she was a child, she couldn't stand the horrible food cooked by my grandmother. She bought this cookbook and studied hard. Finally, at the age of seventeen, she turned over as a serf and became my chef and dishwasher. I was fine when I was in the village. My mother used to cook. Unfortunately, after I went to Tianjin to go to school, my grandmother didn't trust me to live in a relative's house and insisted on taking care of my diet. Thanks to her only being with me for a year, my taste must have deteriorated. Most people in our village are as creative in cooking as my grandmother. For example, my dear grandfather, for this glorious educated youth, the only way to cook fish is to stew in oil in a large pot and throw away the pepper aniseed without spending money. Whether it is silver carp, snakehead, grass carp or crucian carp, the taste is miraculously the same. The most terrible thing is that the family likes to eat boiled meat. Fist-sized pork belly is thrown into the boiling water pot, and some oil and salt are added. When the meat is cooked, you can put chopsticks in your mouth. It's delicious. Mom, if you watch them eat, you will see vomiting. Aunt Meng, a neighbor, is such a leader in eating meat. She eats it every week, eating herself like a boiled pork belly ball with skin.

So you can imagine how I feel when I watch such a movie. Watch China on the Tip of the Tongue. I'm hungry, but I'll be fine if I'm full ―― but Komori makes me yearn for it. This kind of life is not a new life, which stems from the moderate regret of childhood. Seeing the children in the city riding horses in the fields of Shan Ye, I feel that my village is still the same as before. This "as always" is different from "when I am not in Komori, everyone grows rice and looks for walnuts". There is no Komori's nature in the endless villages in the North China Plain. Rice, wheat, beans, rakes, shovels and mice are all boring.

If someone really likes it here like Yutai and wants to live here, I will feel it is a misfortune.

(B) the rhythm of the countryside

Country life in this film is a bit too idealistic. Just what we want, what this city lacks, of course, may also be a coincidence. Without social networks, children in the city do not take photos or send friends, and farming life is stripped of heavy and boring. However, even if you peel it, you can still see a lot of things. Japan's rural areas are aging (when the fallow meeting was held, most of them were old people, and I don't know if it was Komori's personal situation), and the information was blocked (when the mayor grew up, he discovered that he dared to ask Worcester soy sauce to be sold everywhere, and the sauce he painted was actually chocolate hazelnut sauce, so he definitely didn't go to the city all the year round. According to encyclopedia Komori, this place is also a similar poverty-stricken county), and the heavy physical labor was basically taken over. After all, this intensity of labor will be written on his face. However, this is not a realistic film. It depends on the bitter version. Japanese have Kurosawa's Seven Samurai, and China has Zhang Yimou's Alive, so we don't need it.

Basically, the cooking, food, farming and parties in this city supported this film. These things give you a sense of inner peace. This kind of rural life is really slow enough ―― Komori's rhythm is actually very punctual, that is, "summer is full and summer is even". This kind of life, which is completely in accordance with the natural rhythm, is naturally calm, and you can't help but be calm, because you said it. This is different from the rhythm of "personnel" in the city. In fact, there are very few villages that leave on time, and there are many township enterprises around the village (mostly labor-intensive, which may be heavy pollution like tanning, such as next door to our village). In fact, the pace of life is almost inferior to that of cities, and the young labor force is easily lost. Look at the baked meatballs and sweet potatoes in this city. All the ladies are running around and all the young girls are in the city.

(3) yearning

We yearn for something and a certain life, mostly because we are a little lacking and lack the benefits we deserve. You are ok, but you can't forget it. Feel better. This is called yearning. Everyone's life is flawed or something. There is no perfect person, and there is no perfect life. People have their own shortcomings, so that people have their own aspirations and aspirations. Some people want to "train their minds in a wide range of fields", and they can't live without cities without struggle. Chekhov's idea of "light bulb" is unacceptable to him. But in fact, there is nothing wrong with putting that kind of eyes on ordinary people. Everyone has his own interests, and we can't say others are vulgar. I really hope that when I saw wood at my front door, an aunt fried chestnuts with her own sugar and said that you can taste this delicious food with brandy. Of course, it would be better if it were not an aunt but a girl, which would make the picture look better.

So if someone tells me that I yearn for Komori and want to live there, I will think it is a very natural and beautiful thing.

(4) Life

Children in the city have a bad life in the city and are not very confident. Her boyfriend is stronger than her to pick the fruit that she can't pick, so she is very sad, because she thinks that "physical strength is the only thing I am proud of from the countryside" and has been jumping around. When I was working with a boy who had a good impression, I saw that he only ate a sweet bread and made a lunch, waiting for others to eat together. Unfortunately, I was very depressed to find that the famous grass was taken away. "In the end, I couldn't take another step." I have to go back to Komori and live alone. My mother, who has been living alone, later left herself to form a family and live her own life, and rarely wrote letters. . .

Would it be a sad story without the cooking skills I learned from my mother and the beautiful part of Komori? Maybe this movie is not intended to tell the whole story. Anyway, what people want to see is delicious food, quiet and beautiful scenery. We will see what is in the life of city children, but what we lack, and then we yearn for it, so we may yearn for it or drool. After seeing the city's spring, summer, autumn and winter, and seeing so many delicious foods, have you neglected the city? Different people eat the same food, will the story be the same?

It was not until the spring when Shizi left Komori that she began to live a real life. Her days in Komori were an escape, and she knew it.

Some people's lives begin with coming back, while others begin with leaving.

Do you want to leave or come back?
