Wish all sailors good health, success in everything, fulfillment of their wishes, and the realization of their dreams. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In the first year of middle school, it is customary to go to one’s hometown to pay respects at the graves of ancestors. When we arrived in the town, my cousin and cousinette were already waiting at the intersection, to go to the incense and candle shop at the end of the town to buy paper money, incense, candles, firecrackers, and other items needed for tomb-sweeping ceremonies. The incense and candle shop is small, run by a couple. There are many people buying incense sticks today, so it’s very busy. There are also many different varieties; in addition to the ever-present yellow paper money, there are banknotes of various denominations. The highest denomination is already in the trillions, it seems that place has also been affected by Zimbabwe. There are also various types of firecrackers, ranging from simple ones with 500 explosions to those with 10,000 explosions. I’m not really sure how much to buy; I’m not very clear about these rules, so it’s always my cousins who handle it. After making the purchase, the sisters waited at the entrance of the store while negotiating and settling the bill with the owner. At that moment, another car stopped in front of the shop; a few people got out and went inside to buy incense and candles. The middle-aged man driving got out of the car, closed the door, and lit a cigarette. Perhaps smoking isn’t allowed in the car, and since the journey was a bit long, I took a few deep breaths after lighting it; it gave me a feeling of relaxation. The man must have thought of something, and he went into the shop with a lit cigarette in his hand. That’s not good. I stopped him at the entrance of the store, and the man looked at me in confusion. “Bro, it’s a incense and candle shop inside; there are lots of paper money, incense, candles, and firecrackers. ” The man continued to look at me in confusion. “Bro, there are things like paper money and firecrackers inside that are flammable; it’s very dangerous for you to go in with a burning cigarette in your mouth. ” “Oh, I’m sorry, I didn’t notice. ”The man seemed to suddenly understand, then turned and walked to the edge of the street to stub out his cigarette. Walk back towards the store. A woman who seemed to be his wife came out of the shop; perhaps she saw us talking inside and was worried that there might be some dispute, so she came out to check. "What's wrong? " “That guy saw me enter the candle shop with a cigarette in my mouth and said it was unsafe; I extinguished the cigarette before going in. ” “That’s right! Be more careful; when you’re out, you need to pay close attention to your safety. Thanks for the reminder, brother! “It’s no problem – we’re all from the same community, so it’s only natural to take care of each other!” Happy New Year, wish you prosperity! “ My younger brother and sister had already bought what they needed, and we headed along the country road toward the old house at the foot of the mountain. The weather had warmed up, and the rapeseed flowers had begun to bloom; walking on that familiar path filled with the scent of flowers made the journey particularly pleasant.
