After three long months of impatient waiting, today I finally received the wedding gift from my friend Sun Han from Hong Kong. The nine twists and turns in the middle section are enough to write a book. It dealt with the relationships between the Hong Kong Post Office, the Roman Post Office, the Roman Customs, the Roman Express Company and the apartment security. I filled out the form 8 times and paid the tax 9 times. This ” The precious gift of “coming across the ocean to see you” has finally seen the light of day. The moment I opened the gift and flipped through the greeting card, I couldn’t help but shed tears. What makes me stunned is not the gift itself (of course it is very beautiful and suits my heart), but that it opens the door of my dusty memory and makes me fall into the recollection of many past events and return to the lush years of my youth. …

In addition to the debt of upbringing that I owe to my parents for giving me flesh and blood, I have always wanted to thank two people in my life. It is they who helped me shape who I am today on a spiritual level: one is my boss of 10 years, Yu Long, and the other is my college classmate Sun Han.

Don’t know where the future lies? How long will this kind of life continue? With a monthly salary of 500 yuan, when can I have my own little home in Beijing? “She comforted me and encouraged me as usual. In her mind, I will always be like a doting child in the eyes of my parents. “You are really great! You can definitely do it! “… In 2002, I was awarded a study trip to the United States by the Rockefeller Foundation. For me, the biggest gain from this trip was that it allowed me to break through my usual way of life and thinking in Beijing. I began to learn to raise my head and open my eyes. , I understood that the world is as big as the heart. Han was studying sociology at Northwestern University in Chicago. I didn’t hesitate to buy a plane ticket and fly from New York to see her. My old friend David in Chicago drove me. We were sent to the dilapidated villa where Han rented, and the moment we met, we hugged each other and cried. My Han really hadn’t changed at all, and the cramped little house was still filled with books all over the floor. At that time, I kept blaming myself: I was in Beijing. Why did I never think of going to Shenzhen to see her? Now Han has settled in Hong Kong with her husband (who is also my college classmate) and will become a mother at the end of the year. It is really hard to imagine that person who enjoys reading books every day. Han, who always looks like a school girl, will eventually become a mother.

Waiting for the day when they will be legendary in the world
