Uncle Zhang passed away due to illness. The old man had no special hobbies during his lifetime. He only liked fishing. After retirement, he ran to the river every day. His children are also very filial. They know that their father likes fishing, and they often buy some fishing gear for the old man. Even his daughter who is married far away does not forget to bring two fishing rods to the old man when she brings her uncle back to visit him. In this way, the old man became the most handsome boy by the river. Compared with other old men, the fishing rods he used were better than theirs, because his children bought them, and they always chose the more expensive ones.

The old man is fishing

On the same floor of Uncle Zhang's house lives a young man named Li, who is also an old neighbor. The young man is nice and likes fishing. As long as he has a day off and doesn't have to go to work, Uncle Zhang will definitely go fishing with him. In this way, the two people, an old man and a young man, are both neighbors and fishing friends, and the relationship between the two families is also very good. When the old man and his son come home, they will invite Xiao Li to come over for dinner when the meal is ready. It feels like a family. Because the children are married and have their own houses, they don’t live with the two old people. If the lights at home don’t work or there is a water leak, Xiao Li will come over to help. He will also help the old people tie fish hooks and tinker with fish bait.

Xiao Li did not expect that the old man passed away suddenly. Last week, he drove Uncle Zhang to the suburbs to go fishing, and he left right away. It happened so suddenly! On the day of the funeral, Xiao Li took leave from the company and worked hard at Uncle Zhang's house. He also went to the funeral parlor with the old man's children to see the old man off for the last time. After the old man's funeral affairs were settled, most of the things he used during his lifetime had been disposed of, except for a lot of fishing rods and fishing gear that he didn't know how to get rid of, and he didn't know how to burn them.

Riverside fishing

Later, the old man’s children told Xiao Li to take away the fishing gear and use the ones that could be used, and throw away the ones that couldn’t be used. Then Xiao Li moved the things back home. After arriving home, Xiao Li carefully counted the fishing rods. There were 17 fishing rods in total, 12 of which were good rods costing more than a thousand yuan. Among them, 5 of them had not had their labels torn off, and the ropes at the tip of the rods were not knotted. The new rods were not Used. He would be very happy to get so many good fishing rods for free, but... after all, this was something the deceased used to use during his lifetime, and Xiao Li always felt weird in his heart. Driven by psychological effects, after finishing sorting things, he took a basin and two books, went to the kitchen and lit a fire, burned everything, and then put the fishing rod and his own Together.

caught a carp

Half a month later, Xiao Li started fishing again. This time he used the old man's fishing rod. He caught a lot of fish that day. At the time, he thought it was because the fish were in good condition, but in the subsequent fishing trips, it was still the same. He could catch fish that others couldn't catch, and he could catch a lot. He felt very strange afterwards, and suddenly a thought flashed through his mind, was Uncle Zhang protecting him? Because I was using his fishing rod, I was amused by my own thoughts as I thought about it.

After several good fishing harvests, one night Xiao Li had a dream, dreaming that he and Uncle Zhang were fishing by the river. As he was fishing, Uncle Zhang said to him, "Xiao Li! I'm leaving." At this time, Xiao Li asked doubtfully, "It's still early in the day, are you going home now?", "I'm not I have to go home to a very far place, and I won’t be able to fish with you in the future. I will give you all my fishing rods and fishing gear, so you can use them with peace of mind and catch more big fish,” said Uncle Zhang. Before Xiao Li could ask where he was going, the alarm clock rang, and it was already dawn when Xiao Li opened his eyes.

Friends in Life

After waking up, Xiao Li recalled the dream and said with a smile, "This old man, I haven't forgotten about fishing even after I left." He also said toward the window, "Thank you for giving me the fishing rod. Have a good trip, old man." ", because he knew that Uncle Zhang had really left and would never fish together again, which made him feel quite uncomfortable thinking about it. Perhaps Uncle Zhang was worried that he would feel uneasy using his things, so he asked his dream to reassure him that he could use them with peace of mind.Or maybe Uncle Zhang regards himself as a friend and fishing confidant. Although there is a difference in age, they both have a common hobby, which is fishing. Just like a sentence in the song "Friends": It is rare to have a bosom friend in life, and it is the most difficult to have a bosom friend through the ages. Mi, maybe that’s what I mean!
