    Reader note

    The birth of this book stems from a conversation with a child in October this year. The child mentioned that he wanted to write books to make a living, which surprised me a little, but it also touched the thoughts deep in my heart. I am over fifty years old and have always had a silent yearning for literature. Over the years, I have traveled a lot and experienced a lot. Although it is not a grand event, I have also accumulated many real life fragments. I've always wanted to write something, but it's always difficult to get started. Now, with this suddenly ignited idea, I decided to slowly write out my experiences over the years in the form of a novel. It is like a memoir. The stories are mostly true, but the names of people and places in the book have been blurred out of fear of involving specific people and events. If these plain but real traces of life can bring you some resonance or inspiration, that would be my greatest gratification. Thank you for reading. I hope you can feel the warmth and sincerity of an ordinary life when you read these words.
