Hometown is a word that sounds warm and brings endless memories. My hometown is a small county, but every time I talk about it, it is extremely warm and I have an indescribable feeling in my heart.
When talking about hometown, the first thing that comes to mind is its characteristics. What is characteristics? is something unique. Since it is unique, it must be famous? Noodles? It also has a unique meaning to me!
In my family, it is very easy to get a bowl of glutinous rice noodles, and my mother loves me very much. Because of this, I have developed some bad habits. I want whatever I see. My mother would also buy them for me. Gradually, my character began to become very cunning. I would cry and yell when something didn't go my way, and sometimes I would show silence to prove that I was angry, and would do nothing and not eat. For this reason, my mother also worries a lot. And my study was also a mess. Every time I was assigned homework, I would always copy my brother's homework when I came home. For this reason, I don't know how far my grades were from my brother's, but I didn't care and still went my own way. Mom's smile faded a little. And my bad temper and handling characteristics have also changed since then.
The light rain pattered and wet the road I took home. The road became soft due to being wet by the rain. After the rain, walking on this path, I stepped on the soft soil and made a hole. One deep and one shallow footprint, which makes me very happy. The sun shines through the leaves onto the ground. The weather was supposed to be nice, and I should be in a good mood. Unfortunately, I sprained my foot and fell to the ground, covered in dirt. I stood up with a grimace. I patted the dirt on my body and didn't want to care about it, but when I saw my brother's suppressed smile, I couldn't help but get very angry. So I left him and went home. When I got home, I saw guests. I would usually greet them, but now I was very angry, so I took one look and left the living room. When my mother saw me leaving, she came over and took me to the guest room. He said in front of him: "Call Auntie quickly." ?I stubbornly turned my head away and said no? The guest was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: ?It's okay, forget it if you don't scream, it's no big deal. My brother was laughing again, and I glared at him. The guest began to smooth things over and said, "Okay, let's go eat glutinous rice." ?I couldn’t help but say: ?What’s so delicious about it? ?The guest smiled? You will know it when you go there. ?
I came to a glutinous rice noodle shop, walked in, and ordered a few bowls of glutinous rice noodles. I had nothing to do, so I stared at how it was made: I saw the chef putting a dough into it. Knead it well, put it into the machine, press it with your hands to squeeze out the noodles more smoothly, stir it gently with a spoon so that it will not break, put it into a bowl after cooking, add soup and various seasonings. A bowl of glutinous rice noodles with perfect color, aroma and taste is ready. Sitting at the table, the guest leaned in my ear and said to me: "饸饹" means "harmony". It means that people who have eaten it will be happy with their families. The happiness of the family is the most important, right, so don't If you make your mother angry again, apologize, okay? ?I nodded, I wasn’t too angry to begin with, and with the good words, even though I didn’t quite understand what I was hearing, it was always good to apologize. I apologized and ate noodles. The guest left.
To this day, I still can’t forget her words, which became my motivation to move forward. Since then, I have performed better, kept up with my studies, and my mother’s smiles have increased. After that incident, I understood the truth, understood the true meaning, learned how to behave, and distinguished between right and wrong.
The glutinous rice noodles in my hometown are the characteristics of my hometown, the unique beauty of my hometown, the business card of my hometown, and a turning point in my life.
