Beside station, an old man who has past his sixtieth years was sitting under a tree to repair a pair of shoes. He has bright eyes, if nobody said; you would not know that he was a blind.
Once time, I took a pair of my daughter’s shoes to require him to fix, and chatting with him for a while. From conversation, I knew that he came from countryside, and his two daughters were working at the city. The old man’s job was a cobbler, so when he came to city, he did this job again.
The old man said that he liked to repair the shoes, if let him do another things, he would not unhappy. I should to given the money to him when he helped me to repair the shoes, but he refused, because he answered: “my daughters are good to me, and repairing the shoes are my hobbies.” The old man insisted in refusing to accept money, he said:” next time, you can take the shoes to here.” From his expression, I knew that he was serious.
Every day, that old man was under the tree to do his business. Gradually, more and more people knew that there was an old man who was a blind would help to repair the shoes without pay. But almost people saw that he was a blind and very hard to do, so they chose to put the money into his hat.
In the summer, the thunderstorm also is unexpected, so the old man prepared umbrellas in his stall. When the pedestrians meet the heat sunshine or the rain, they can get umbrellas from there. In the second day, they will get back to give back.
The old man is a warm-hearted man. Once I took my shoes with a bad mood. The old man seemed to know what I said, so he answered: “young man, unhappy?” So I told my trouble to him. He said: “when I was young, I was more unlucky than you. Every time I fix my shoes just as like to repair my troubles. Later, my eyes are not well, but I have no wish to live. The new life is waiting for me.”
