As the saying goes: "New semester brings new atmosphere." After school starts, children will welcome the new semester with a new look, and parents will naturally have high hopes for their children, hoping that their children will achieve something in the new semester.
Since ancient times, people have expected good meanings from things, and in order to express their emotions, they are more inclined to create some artificial images in the hope of having good meanings.
Therefore, on such a special day as the first day of school, some parents began to work hard on the "meaning" and expressed their best wishes to their children for the new semester.
On the first day of school, "sensational dramas" and "children's fun dramas" were staged at the school gate, but in terms of eye-catching power, they were not as eye-catching as this doll who went to school with "onions on his back".
Yesterday was the first day of school. In a kindergarten in Jiangsu, teachers were welcoming children at the door.
Among the many children, one little girl stood out, not because of anything else, but because she had a few green onions in her schoolbag.
The little girl was seen carrying a big pink schoolbag, with a green onion protruding high inside. It seemed that the green onion was quite heavy, and the child was a little wobbly when carrying it.
According to the child's parents, this is based on local customs. When school starts, carrying a schoolbag bought by the uncle and carrying green onions means that the new semester will be bright and smart, and hope to get good grades. .
In response to this, netizens have joked: The green onions are also wrapped in a white plastic bag, does it mean "white cleverness"? And if the green onion is too white, does it mean that it is "too smart"? No wonder I'm not smart, maybe it's because I didn't memorize anything when I was a kid...
In fact, there is a saying in some places: On the first day of school, put a A green onion, "onion" and "clong" are homophonic, which means that the child will be smart, smart and clever in the new semester.
Not only that, the schoolbag can not only have green onions, but also have the same routine as green onions, like apples, which means "peace and safety", baked fruits, which mean (must pass the exam), water chestnuts, It means (smart and pleasant)...
In addition, like Wangwang, the little steamed bun hopes that the child will be "prosperous", and the brush means "the teacher will teach you and you will be successful". ", and is also wearing a "Little Genius Phone Watch" on his hand, which represents the child's future success, unified instant noodles, and hopes that the child will "achieve 100 points in the exam."
In addition, on the first day of school, in addition to equipment, breakfast is also very particular: children must eat 1 fried dough stick and 2 eggs, which means 100 points in the test.
It has to be said that in order to let their children grow up, today's parents strive for perfection in many aspects of life. It is really admirable for the good intentions of parents and family members.
In fact, carrying onions on children’s back to school can bring a sense of ritual just like planting dogwood trees on September 9th. The difference is that the former is too niche and has not been universally recognized.
Children going to school with "onions on their backs" will make the original unusual day of school look even more different from the past, and even magnify this difference.
Children carry onions on their backs to school. The special nature of the first day of school intensifies the scarcity of onions on the first day of school and becomes a shining point in children’s future memories.
Therefore, considering this aspect, it is also a way for parents to express their best wishes to their children, and it is also an expression of love and care for their children.
Of course, if parents really want to be similar on the first day of school, they can just show off. There is no need to stuff their children’s schoolbags full of items and choose too many types of items. , it is easy to have the sense of dissonance that "a person's small school bag is heavy".
It is originally a very beautiful thing, but if it becomes a burden on the baby because of too many items, it is "putting the cart before the horse".
