在成都的一家温馨茶馆里，空气中弥漫着茉莉花茶的香气。

In a cozy tea house in Chengdu, the air is filled with the fragrance of jasmine tea.

即便是冬季，茶馆内依旧温暖如春，窗外的五彩灯笼随着风轻轻晃动，为夜晚的城市增添了一抹浪漫的色彩。

Even in winter, the tea house remains warm like spring, while the colorful lanterns outside the window gently sway in the breeze, adding a touch of romance to the night cityscape.

这个晚上，对明来说尤为重要，因为他邀请了长久未见的弟弟梁。

This evening is particularly significant for Ming because he has invited his long-unseen younger brother, Liang.

在外多年，一直让兄弟俩之间有些生疏。

Having been away for many years has created a bit of estrangement between the brothers.

灯节将至，成都的街头夜空中挂满了耀眼的灯笼。

With the Lantern Festival approaching, the streets of Chengdu are filled with dazzling lanterns.

正是这样充满童年记忆的时节，明觉得这是和梁再次连结的好机会。

During this season, rich in childhood memories, Ming feels this is a good opportunity to reconnect with Liang.

他希望在这如诗如画的氛围中，能够打破那些年积累的隔阂。

He hopes that in this picturesque atmosphere, they can break through the barriers that have accumulated over the years.

梁推开茶馆的木门，看到兄长已经坐在角落的位置，手边一杯热腾的茉莉花茶。

Liang pushed open the wooden door of the tea house and saw his elder brother already seated in a corner spot, with a steaming cup of jasmine tea beside him.

面带微笑的明站起身，招呼梁坐下。

With a smile on his face, Ming stood up and invited Liang to sit down.

虽然心里有些紧张，但梁感受到了一丝家的温暖，他点了点头，缓慢坐下。

Although a bit nervous inside, Liang felt a hint of warmth and nodded, slowly taking a seat.

“好久不见，你变化不小啊。”明微笑着，用温和的语气开口。

"Long time no see, you've changed quite a bit," Ming said with a smile, using a gentle tone.

梁点头，却一时不知道该如何回应。

Liang nodded but for a moment wasn't sure how to respond.

沉默片刻，明指了指身后的墙壁，上面挂着一幅画。

After a brief silence, Ming pointed to the wall behind them, where a painting was hung.

那是一幅他们小时候常去的老房子的画。

It was a painting of the old house they used to visit as children.

画中的老式庭院，以及庭院里那棵大枣树，勾起了两兄弟的共同回忆。

The old-style courtyard in the painting, along with the large jujube tree in it, evoked shared memories for the brothers.

“还记得那棵树吗？我们总是在树下玩。”明轻声说道。

"Remember that tree? We always played under it," Ming said softly.

这一刻，梁的思绪回到了小时候的无忧无虑，过往的负担似乎轻了一些。

In this moment, Liang's thoughts drifted back to the carefree days of childhood, and the burdens of the past seemed to lighten.

“记得，那是我们最爱的地方。”梁终于放松下来，语气中透着怀念。

"I remember, it was our favorite place," Liang finally relaxed, nostalgia in his voice.

慢慢地，他开始述说在国外的生活和经历。

Slowly, he began to speak about his life and experiences abroad.

他的歉意逐渐化解成对兄长的感谢。

His initial apology gradually turned into gratitude for his elder brother.

灯火通明的小路上，两兄弟漫步而行。

On a brightly lit path, the two brothers strolled.

说着，笑着，兄弟俩之间的陌生感逐渐消融。

Talking, laughing, the unfamiliarity between them gradually faded.

梁感谢明的包容和理解，而明则已经尝试接纳弟弟不同的经历。

Liang thanked Ming for his understanding and acceptance, while Ming was trying to embrace his brother's different experiences.

回到老屋门前，他们相视一笑。

Back at the door of the old house, they exchanged smiles.

明与梁都知道，尽管无法改变过去，但他们可以共同迎接新的开始。

Ming and Liang both knew that, although they couldn't change the past, they could welcome a new beginning together.

灯笼的光芒照亮了他们的回家之路，也照亮了他们重新建立起来的纽带。

The glow of the lanterns lit their way home and also illuminated the bond they were rebuilding.

故事在他们的笑声中结束，象征着新年的新开始，也代表着兄弟情谊的再次连接。

The story ends with the sound of their laughter, symbolizing a new beginning of the new year and representing the reconnection of their brotherly bond.
