Hometown creek

My hometown is in Jingxi, and there is a winding stream in front of the house. It brings a lot of joy to the children in our village.

In the early morning, the sun did not reveal a red little face, and the morning glow reflected on the creek, like the red ribbon of the heavenly fairy, drifting down to the distance. The rising sun rises, and the cocks of every household scream; the birds on the trees sing in sorrow; the sound of running water from the creek sounds like a symphony.

At noon, the adults are asleep, and some children who can't sleep can take fishing rods or fishing nets and go fishing by the creek. Although it was a hot sun at this time, they still did not drive them away. Some patience waited for the fish to hook; some did not have the patience, grabbed a bucket in one hand, ran into the creek barefoot, and saw a fish catching one. After catching the fish, the children still did not play enough, and they played a water fight. You splash me, I splash you, just like the Songkran Festival of the Yi people, playing the fun. Although the whole body is wet, their laughter has been echoing in the sky until the sun sets.

In the evening, when the moon is empty, the pure moon is reflected in the stream. Every summer, I will move a bamboo chair to the stream and lie on it. Looking at the moon reflected in the creek, I remembered the story of "Monkey Fishing Moon", as if there was a monkey fishing moon. I closed my eyes and my mother took out a fan from home and helped me to fan the wind while helping me drive the mosquitoes. When I fell asleep, my mother took me home.

This creek brought a lot of happiness to the children in our village. It made the children in our village find the joy of childhood.
