Visiting relatives and returning to one's parents' home during the New Year is a custom passed down from generation to generation by Chinese people. It is a kind of family communication between relatives to communicate with each other and express condolences to each other. In the past, people would carry large and small packages of gifts to their relatives' homes. Everyone would smile and talk to each other, and the atmosphere would be particularly harmonious. It was really a close relationship. Not to mention the Chinese New Year, even when visiting relatives, they will entertain them with good wine and food. If they are in a good relationship, they will even stay for a few days. When relatives sit together, they always have endless things to talk about. In today's society, everything is always measured by money. Even in rural areas, visiting relatives has lost its original flavor. For many people, it is just a formality because customs still have to be followed. But in their hearts, they reject or even fear visiting relatives. Because they are afraid of staying at relatives' homes for too long, and their relatives will feel uncomfortable and lose face when they ask this or which one. They are even more afraid of being looked down upon by their relatives.

When I was a child, I was keen on visiting relatives. At that time, visiting relatives meant that it could bring new year's money and delicious food. Today's visiting relatives has changed a lot, but those old memories will come to mind. No matter how heavy the snow is or how slippery the road is, relatives will continue to walk when they have to. This simple optimism is touching.

Nowadays, supermarkets are crowded during the New Year, and no one can eat the meals prepared after working for a long time (some even skip the busy work and directly order a New Year’s Eve dinner and buy dumplings from the supermarket). Running around all over the world. Life is getting better and better, but that happiness is getting farther and farther away from us. When we were children, we laughed when we cried. When we grow up, we laughed and cried when we grew up. Dinner gatherings with relatives have also become a formal ritual. After eating, everyone holds their mobile phones, feeling tired and bored.
