From "Fan Ainong" by Morning Flowers Picked Up at Dusk.
Sitting alone in the guild hall at night, I was very sad and suspected that the news was not accurate, but I felt that it was extremely reliable for no reason, although there was no evidence. There was no way at all. I only wrote four poems, which were later published in a daily newspaper. Now I will almost forget them. I only remember six sentences in one poem. The first four sentences are: "Talk about wine to the world, Mr. Xiaojiu people, the big circle is still drunk, and the drunkenness sinks." I have forgotten the two sentences in the middle, and the last sentence is "The clouds of old friends are gone, I am also waiting for light dust."
Later I went back to my hometown and learned some more detailed things. Ainong had nothing to do first because everyone hated him. He was in trouble, but he still drank, which was invited by his friends. He rarely interacts with people anymore, and only a few younger people he met later are the only ones he sees. However, they seem to be unwilling to listen to his complaints more, thinking that telling jokes is less interesting.
"Maybe I will receive a telegram tomorrow. If I open it and see, it is Lu Xun who came to call me." He often said this.
One day, some new friends invited him to go to the theater by boat. It was already midnight when he got back, and it was stormy again. He was drunk, but he wanted to go to the side of the boat to relieve himself. Everyone tried to dissuade him but refused to listen. He said he would not fall. But he fell, and although he could float, he never got up again.
The body was salvaged the next day and found standing upright in Lingdang.
I still don’t know whether he slipped or committed suicide.
After his death, he had nothing but a young daughter and his wife. Several people wanted to raise some money as a fund for their girl's future tuition fees. As soon as they made the proposal, some tribesmen came to fight for the custody of the money. In fact, there was no such money yet. Everyone felt bored and disappeared invisibly. .
I wonder how his only daughter is doing now? If you are still in school, you should have graduated from middle school.
