"I don't feel pity for myself, I don't steal or rob, I eat with my strength, I earn money with my hands, I earn money to find children..." Master Yue was right, he was not pitiful, but it was very hard...
An epidemic has not only allowed the world to witness the separation of life and death, but also inadvertently unveiled the other side of the bitterness of some ordinary workers. I don't know how many times the headline "The trajectory of life behind the flow map is heart-wrenching" appears on the Internet. At first, I thought it was an eye-catching headline party, but if you look closely, the story behind each streamer is indeed touching and sad.
"On January 6, 11:00-12:08, I worked in Vanke Emerald Cloud Map; at 14:21, I arrived at the Bungalow Material Factory (next to the Xiaolang International Club) to work, at 21:06 I arrived at the Dongxiaojing Shashi Material Factory in Chaoyang District; and from 21:30 to 23:04, I worked in Building 8, Agricultural Science Community, Haidian District."
"From 0:00 to 1:45 on January 10, I will work in the third store of Hu Da Gui Street; at 2:00 am, I will arrive at the second shop of Hu Da Gui Street to work; at 3:00 am, I will arrive at Jianguomen One Center to work, at 4:00 am, I will arrive at Guantou Industrial Zone near Shengyuan Hotel in Tongzhou District, I will arrive at Ligong Villa in Shunyi District at 9:00 a.m., and I will arrive at the puppet theater at 2:58 a.m. on January 11."
Master Yue, who was transferred this time, was called "the hardest worker in the flow", and after watching it, he was deeply moved by this 44-year-old man. Not only is it the busyness and hard work of his nearly 24-hour continuous rotation and non-stop job, but also another tragic story about this man: his son has been missing for 2 and a half years, and he came to Beijing to work hard, just to find his son.
In 2020, Master Yue's 19-year-old son disappeared in Rongcheng City, Weihai, Shandong Province, and Master Yue, who was originally a crew member to help people fish, began a journey of wandering around to find his son. Tianjin, Anyang, Hengshui, Tai'an, Jinan... He lived in almost all the aid stations in these cities, and these cities also left the middle-aged man looking for his son while doing odd jobs.
Because his son had previously worked as a help cook in Beijing's East Fifth Ring Road, Master Yue came to Beijing again and continued to work to earn money while looking for his son. He asked dozens of small hotels and restaurants in Beijing, hoping to hear about his son, but he never found any clues.
In Beijing, she has to find her son and keep working to make money, because Master Yue's family still has a lot of expenses waiting for her. In his hometown, Master Yue's father was paralyzed and suffered from various geriatric diseases; his mother broke his arm and could not take care of himself, and he was also plagued by stubborn diseases; his daughter-in-law helped others to dry kelp and take care of his young son in the sixth grade. According to Master Yue, his family's expenditure will not be less than 10,000 yuan a month. This is also the reason why he is eager to work and earn money for 24 years.
The flow map reflects only the busy side of Master Yue, and his hard work is not completely covered by this flow map. He rented a small room of 10 square meters in the south gate of Shigezhuang, and mainly did heavy work such as carrying cement and carrying construction waste.
Since large trucks carrying garbage cannot enter the city during the day, they can only work at night. Sleep a little a few hours during the day, and there are some odd jobs everywhere.
In order to save money, Master Yue's meal is also very simple, if the employer does not care about the meal, it is generally to eat a few buns, or order noodles.
Judging from the experience and life details of Master Yue exposed by the media, this middle-aged man has almost developed the potential of a person to make money with physical strength to the extreme, and he is also harsh on his physical needs to the extreme.
Behind this middle-aged man is a family and a son who has disappeared but still maintains hope of finding it. These are the burdens on his shoulders and the motivation for him to continue to hold on.
It's harder for men, and it's harder for this middle-aged man. He is difficult and bitter, but he is not pitiful, because he can shoulder the responsibility on his shoulders, and he earns money cleanly by labor; because he has hope and faith in his heart, even if he takes his life, he will get the child back. In contrast to his responsibilities, his suffering may not seem to him to be bitter, but merely trivial details.
If it were not for the epidemic situation, perhaps no one would know that there is such a middle-aged man who has experienced ups and downs, but whether he is known by others or not, one thing is certain, that is, he is not pitiable at all. On the contrary, it will make people think that he is a man who stands tall in the sky. In the face of fate, shouldn't men with shoulders be like this, dare to fight, and never give up!
I wish him a speedy recovery and can find his child as soon as possible! Hopefully, Almighty's network can help find some clues to Master Yue's missing son (below).
