[Old object restoration × incense making × two-way healing]
Deep in the old alley, Shen Xu guards an old object restoration shop. In the gears and wood grains, he repairs time for others, and also mends his own heart that has been worn away by life in a big factory.
In the incense room next door, Su Yao used incense as a matchmaker to seal up the thoughts and regrets of countless people, as well as his own past.
With a lamp and a burner of incense, two scarred people met each other.
Close and then quietly move away. There is no grand confession, and there is no cliché of reunion.
Let time slow down, reconcile with the past, and slowly become a complete self.
Old things can be repaired and people's hearts can be mended.
May you and I both be treated gently by time.
Purpose: This book uses an old object restorer and a perfume maker in an old alley as a carrier to write a story about two people with inner scars who meet, feel warm, and miss each other in slow time, and finally reconcile with themselves.
Using the image of repairing old things and sealing the fragrance, it explores farewell, regret, self-acceptance and growth, conveys the healing core of "old things can be repaired, people's hearts can be mended, and time will eventually heal everything", and pays tribute to everyone who lives seriously and slowly gets better.
