I have left my hometown for more than ten years in a blink of an eye.
When I was a child, I always claimed to be the daughter of the Yangtze River. I have lived by the Yangtze River since I was a child. When I opened the window, it was the Yangtze River. Drinking the Yangtze River water and eating the rice she irrigated grew up.
I wrote many poems when I was a child, and every poem was related to her. I had many dreams when I was a child, and every dream was related to her. When I was a child, I had a lot of worries, and every worry was only confided to her.
I remember a few days before the college entrance examination, the school was on holiday. I'm under a lot of pressure, and tears often roll in my eyes. At that time, I had made up my mind to leave this small town and sit by the Yangtze River for a while every day. The thought of leaving this bay is as sad as breaking up with my lover, and tears are even more difficult to control.
After the college entrance examination, I went to a distant university as I wished. But one or two days before I leave home every winter and summer vacation, I can't help feeling sad and crying all day. More often, I go for a walk by the river and cry at the empty river. When I get home, my mood will be more stable.
The Yangtze River carries too many memories and disappointments.

When I was a child, I didn't have any toys and my parents' company. My favorite thing is to go to the river.
Every place has a king's child, and my cousin is one. There is a large reed by the river, and my cousin led everyone to hollow it out to form a secret base. Walking in, the path is clear, the space is open and the facilities are complete. Because I was still very young at that time, I didn't participate in the construction of the base area, and I was careful every time I went in to visit, for fear of damaging everyone's labor results.
In early spring, I like to follow the big troops to catch crabs by the river. Just turn up a big stone, and a group of small crabs with dense and transparent bodies flee one after another. It is easy to catch a large handful. But this little crab is often not the target we are looking for. We like catching big crabs.
Crabs are creatures who like to wander around. Once I was walking on the shore, I suddenly felt something crawling on me. Looking down, I was startled. It's a big crab. I quickly caught it and brought it to justice.
Sometimes crabs and fish are caught and everyone cooks them on the shore. I roasted a crab. It was so bad that I couldn't eat it at all.

Besides catching crabs, I also like to pick up agates and copper coins. Every time I go to pick up agate, someone says, "Go to the Agate River, which is full of agate stones!" " "Others said," go to Qingjiang, where there are transparent stones! "
Although Manao River and Qingjiang River are places I want to go day and night, my parents are busy with business and will not take me there, and I dare not ask. What's more, my parents don't support me to pick up agate, and they often throw away my jar of agate stones. No reason, unreasonable.
There are also a lot of copper coins scattered along the Yangtze River in front of my house. Grandma said that many people fled from here before and left all kinds of copper coins on the shore.
When my grandmother was a child, all the copper coins by the river were picked up string by string. When I was a child, I could only pick them up one by one to make badminton, give them to my friends and play the game of "playing copper coins".
Later, agate became less and less, and copper coins disappeared. Manao River and Qingjiang River were also deleted from my destination.

When I was a child, air conditioning was extremely rare in our town. Every evening when the sun goes down, every family will hold a mat and go to the river to enjoy the cool. Riverside is Binjiang Park. Each family occupies a lawn. The family sat on the mat, playing cards, chatting and eating ice cream. They didn't go back until 10 in the evening, and some even spent the night in the park.
When I was a child, I went to the river to find acquaintances as soon as I finished eating. Say hello to grandparents first. They usually come out early after dinner and run a few laps to exercise. Then say hello to the big uncle's house, which usually comes early; Then there is my brother-in-law. My aunt won't come out until after taking a shower, so she will be a little late. Finally, my elder sister-in-law was at home, because she got off work the latest.
There was a time when I had two ducks, one red and the other green. As soon as I finished dinner, I took the duck for a walk by the river in a small bucket. As soon as he meets two naughty cousins, the duckling feels uncomfortable. They love ducks so much that they make them cry every time they pinch them.
I remember that at the end of summer, my cousin contracted the lawn irrigation in Binjiang Park, and everyone went to help. I brought a mat, and I plan to sleep in the park directly after I help. The park has a wide field of vision, fresh air and a cool breeze. I woke up at 11: 30 in the middle of the night and found no one in the park. I went home silently with a mat. When I got home, I found that my parents had turned off the lights and went to bed. I shouted for a long time before my father got up and opened the door for me. That was the last time I slept by the river.
For people nowadays, sleeping on the roof and sleeping in the park are incredible things. But for me, this is a precious memory. When I look up at the sky in the dark night, it happens that there are stars that day, I will fly in the sky in my dream and swim with the stars. Every time I fall asleep listening to frogs and insects, I will become Thumbelina and explore in my dreams. Every time I close my eyes in the breeze, I sleep in a sweet dream. Time has passed and will never come back. The past can only be remembered. ...
