However, there are still some people who are far away from their hometowns and relatives, such as armed police soldiers, who silently stick to their posts for the sake of the country's peace.

In order to send joy and blessings to the armed police uncles who are far away from home, on the day of the Lantern Festival, the "Tong Ying" small traffic police club of our school organized us to celebrate the festival with the armed police uncles. We first came to the event site under the leadership of community workers. As soon as we arrived at the production table, we couldn't wait to wash our hands and rub the Lantern Festival like our aunts and mothers-in-law, while waiting for the arrival of the armed police uncles with excitement.

It's coming, it's coming! I don't know who shouted, but I saw the armed police uncles walking towards us with neat steps. As soon as we entered, they lined up their military hats neatly on the table, and then joined us in a lively and lively Lantern Festival.

After a while, the round Lantern Festival was formed.

Burn it, burn it! With the cry of the mother-in-law in the community, bowls of steaming Lantern Festival were placed in front of us, and we hurriedly brought the Lantern Festival to the hands of the armed police uncle, and they humbled each other ......Looking at the happy smiling faces of our uncles and eating the Lantern Festival made by ourselves, our hearts were full of pride.

Time flies like an arrow. The uncles of the armed police were about to return to the army, so we quickly stood in a row and said loudly: "Goodbye uncles of the armed police, happy Lantern Festival, there will be a period later!" Everyone laughed.

It's truly an unforgettable Lantern Festival!
