When I came to Guangzhou by myself, I realized that I really had nothing. That day happened to be July 14 of the lunar calendar. No one came to pick me up because I had no friends in Guangzhou. This day is also a ghost festival in the traditional sense. Of course, the Buddha said it is the Bon Festival.
Walking on the streets of Panyu, there were very few pedestrians, just burnt paper dust floating around. The wind blew, and it was cold in the sultry heat. We have someone we know in this city, because we are here because we want to hide our debts.
Almost nothing to eat, because there is no money. That night I walked around the whole street without any purpose. Later I went to the park to find a bench and lay down.
A feeling of sadness, when I got up. I found an old man fishing there. I went to ask him, the old man is still fishing shrimp so late? He said yes, it’s okay to be idle anyway. Are you tired?

Not tired, he never looked up when talking to him. Just intently looked at the shrimp fishing bottle. I was a little strange in my heart, but because no one else talked to him.
He told me that he has three children, two sons and one daughter. He recently occupied the house and he has 5 houses in total. Now life is very good, his children are doing business outside. Etc., etc.
Not enough from his words to hear his dissatisfaction with his children, because he can’t even see his children during his birthday or the Spring Festival, and even his grandchildren can hardly meet. He was very depressed, his wife died. Is it easy to pull older children to do business in the field, only to guard a big house by themselves, is it okay to hang shrimp? ……
I think of my parents, but in fact they are far from Guangzhou, and their parents in Qingdao must not know. I feel a little pain in my heart… I will definitely call home tomorrow, at least it’s okay to report safety.
Someone was patting me on the shoulder, and I found myself lying on the bench all the time. The old man fishing shrimp is long gone. A cleaner asked me, why did you sleep here?
I said nowhere to go, he said boy, are you okay? I said nothing. He said to himself that last year, an old man who had just caught a shrimp drowned here. In fact, the water was very shallow. Later, when he came, his two sons and one daughter came back and asked for compensation from the park…..
The old man last night? I have a strange feeling in my heart…
