陪母亲磨面,记得小时候的冬日里,母亲总是提起她的磨盘和碾子,让我们一起去田野里淘麦。岁月静好,她们的笑声随风飘扬,那是对生活无限热爱的一种表达。如今,虽然我身在异乡,但每当过年时节,我都会想起那些与母亲共度的美好时光。
那年,我回家探亲,只见母亲一副满怀期待的情绪。她说:“儿子,我们要回老家淘麦磨面。”我知道,这对于她来说,是一种回到过去、重新开始的方式。在那个寒冷而宁静的冬天,我们踏上了返家的路。
路上,雪花纷飞,如同轻柔的手指抚摸着大地。我俩相对沉默,只有脚步声在空旷中回荡。那份孤独,却又带着一种温馨,与我心中的情感交织成一幅复杂而深刻的情景画卷。
到了老家,一切都像往常一样。父亲依旧坐在炕沿上打盹儿,小女儿则正在书桌前认真做作业。我却没有参与进来,而是在外头帮助母亲准备淘麦。这是一项重复但又充满意义的工作,它不仅锻炼了我们的体力,还让我们更加珍惜这片土地上的每一口粮食,每一次劳动。
mother, her eyes were shining with determination. She had been preparing for this moment for weeks, and she was ready to face the challenges that lay ahead.
As we worked together in the cold winter air, I couldn't help but think about how much my mother had changed over the years. She was no longer the young woman who used to work tirelessly in the fields from dawn till dusk. But even though her body may have weakened with age, her spirit remained strong and unbroken.
I watched as she carefully selected each grain of wheat, inspecting it meticulously before adding it to our sack. Her hands moved deftly and precisely, a testament to years of practice and experience.
After what felt like hours of hard labor, we finally finished collecting enough wheat for our family's needs. As we made our way back home through the snow-covered fields, I couldn't help but feel a sense of pride and accomplishment wash over me.
My mother turned to me with a warm smile on her face. "You know," she said softly,"life is not just about working hard or earning a living. It's about cherishing every moment with your loved ones."
