There is a leprosy rehabilitation village on Si'an Island in Dongguan, Guangdong. Xie Cuiping came here to work as a volunteer. Her job content was varied: helping the elderly in the village repair their mobile phones (secret: restart), and recharge their phone bills ("Cuiping, the phone bill you recharged is for long-lasting calls, I recharged it myself, and I finished the calls so quickly!" ), Purchasing supplies, etc., Of course, she also had to fend off scams and health product sales calls, take the elderly out for fun, or help the elderly find their long-lost relatives based on vague clues ("There is a slope at the entrance of our village!")... Slowly, she became familiar with everyone. Grandpa Liu Dajian planted a garden of roses; Uncle Zhang Xian is a gourmet and won an award for his glutinous rice recipe; Uncle Peng has no fingers, but he is still a famous painter; the fourth sister's mother-in-law has lived alone in the mountains for the past 50 years; and how come this person, at such an age, is joking all day long without speaking the truth? In the rehabilitation village with inconvenient transportation, the days passed peacefully and peacefully... Later, the elderly people left one by one. People are like mangoes on a tree. When they are ripe and wormy, they will naturally fall off. Cuiping couldn't bear to leave them, and she wanted to work hard to leave some traces for them. Hence, this book was born.
