The first line of the poem "Pull down the curtains and bow down to the mother river", that is, lift the door curtains and tell the old mother that her son is about to leave. But since we make a living by traveling around the world, this kind of farewell has no specific purpose, so we can only say to go to Heliang. On the one hand, it is difficult to leave my old mother, and on the other hand, I have to leave because of the pressure of life. This difficult and helpless situation hints at the author's extremely painful mood.
