By the Side of Yanzhou

He has worked as a conductor at Yanzhou Railway Station for forty years, repeating the same actions every day: punching tickets, collecting money, and making change. Someone asked him why he didn't change his job, and he said, "I'm waiting for someone." It turned out that when he was young, a girl got off the train at Yanzhou Station and dropped a book of poems at his window. He flipped through the book all night and found a note inside the book: "If you also like Haizi, come find me." There was no name or address. He waited for forty years, and the book of poems became rotten. On the day of retirement, a girl came and asked: "Have you seen this collection of poems?" He said he had, and the girl said: "This is my grandma's, and she asked me to come to you."
