This article is the author's memory of eight years ago. At that time, the author was studying in the philosophy department of Peking University. When he learned of the death of his grandmother, he rushed to Xuzhou from Beijing and went back to Yangzhou with his father to attend the funeral. After the funeral, my father went to Nanjing to find a job, the author went back to Beijing to study, and the father and son said goodbye in Pukou. This article shows the sincere feelings between father and son incisively and vividly, but it is different from ordinary works in describing portraits, expressions, voices and smiles. Instead, he grasped a characteristic of the "back" of the characters, spared no expense in describing them in detail with pen and ink.

The author's handling this way is mainly related to the author's family and mood. Father's hometown is decadent, and he has suffered a lot. He was down and out for half his life. When his family was poor and his grandmother died, he went to look for a job and took the trouble to send his son to Beijing. He also climbed the railway to buy oranges for his son, reminding him repeatedly that his father was in a bad mood and his son was in a bad mood.

Therefore, the author grasps his father's "back" to describe and express his thoughts and feelings in a specific environment, which naturally achieves a strong artistic effect. It is precisely because the work is about a specific family, the mood, love and pity between a loving father and a dutiful son, with a touch of sadness between the lines, which is even more sincere and moving.
