There is love in the world, and there is light in life —— Reading A Canteen by the Cloud

There is a canteen by the cloud is another masterpiece of Zhang Jiajia after Passing Through Your World. As always, the author's writing is delicate and calm, and his writing is full of warm colors.

Running a canteen in Yunbian Town, Liu is her grandson. Liu Shisan has never met his mother. Her mother only left him a message, hoping that when he grows up, he will be admitted to Tsinghua Peking University, work in a big city, find a girl who loves him, get married and live happily. Liu Shisan studies hard, hoping to realize his mother's wish. But the reality did not fulfill his efforts. After all, he didn't get into the ideal university. He became a member of the most ordinary society, just like you and me.

The reason why Liu XIII's experience and growth can impress many readers is that everyone sees his own shadow in him-he has no background and no choice but to be ambitious. He tried his best to change his fate, but in the end it was in vain. Even if you are unwilling, you still have to accept your humble existence.

During his college years, Liu XIII fell in love with a beautiful girl, Peony. Peony was so infatuated with him that he didn't have the courage to ask her "why" even if he found Peony staying at night. Liu Shisan, who loves deeply, really lowered himself into the dust. Peony finally decided to leave him. Liu XIII fell into the darkness of pain.

The appearance of Cheng Shuang, like a light, lit up the dark world of Liu XIII. When he saw Cheng Shuang, he remembered the happy boyhood he had spent in Yunbian Town. I remembered the little girl crying in the back seat of his bike. I remembered the promise of "If I can live, I will be your girlfriend". Especially after the frustrated Liu XIII returned to Yunbian Town again, he spent a long time with Cheng Shuang. Cheng Shuang's kindness and enthusiasm infected him, making him feel that there is hope in life and the future can be expected.

It can be said that Cheng Shuang is a person who shines all over. She knew that she could die at any time, but she was not decadent or complaining. She accepted all this optimistically. She really loves Liu and has appeared in his life many times, helping him solve problems and giving him care and encouragement. She also took in the homeless ball and became her "mother", which made her feel the warmth of home.

Liu XIII's grandmother devoted all her love to him. She allowed Liu Thirteen to call her "Wang Yingying"; Allow him to write the slogan "Wang Yingying is a cheapskate" on the door panel of the canteen; Allow him to steal things from the canteen for Cheng Shuang to eat ... She is willing to let all the frost and snow that may fall on Liu's heart fall on her shoulders. She scrimped and saved money secretly to make her grandson's life in the world less difficult. When Liu Thirteen, an insurance salesman, drowned his sorrows by drinking because his performance was not up to standard, he was taken back to Yunbian Town overnight with a tractor in his seventies.

"Grandma, you are always by my side." "Yes, grandma will always be there." Wang Yingying didn't keep her promise. She died in the winter near the Spring Festival. Liu hung a lantern on his way home. I think she will find her way home, because Liu is the person she cares about most at home.

"Some parting is the last side." After leaving, Cheng Shuang, who never appeared again, must have made Liu Thirteen feel the pain of this sentence. Liu, wrapped in pain, was not knocked down by grief, because he saw the ball that became mature and sensible in the welfare home, the love that turned over a new leaf Niu Datian got, and the tears of regret shed by Mao Zhijie, a gambling addict ... The growth and transformation of people around him (including himself) made him understand that "sadness and hope are all a ray of light". This ray of light of life illuminates all the people struggling in ordinary life, and also ignites the tenderness in his heart.

I have to say that Zhang Jiajia is a storyteller, and he lets us witness the triviality and joys and sorrows of life. Everyone in "There is a canteen by the cloud" is also a person with a story. They are all warriors of life. They "still love life after recognizing the true image of life", because Yunbian Town is their hometown and the mountain and sea in everyone's heart.

Love and hope are a ray of light in our hearts and mountains and seas in our hearts.
