About This Novel

The work tells the story of "I", an intellectual who left his hometown. After returning to his hometown at the end of the lunar calendar, he stayed at the house of his fourth uncle (Master Lu Si) to prepare a "blessing". He witnessed the tragedy of the death of Xiang Lin, the former maid of the fourth uncle's family. By describing Xianglin's tragic life, the novel shows the author's sympathy for oppressed women and his ruthless exposure of feudal ideology and ethics. It also explains how enlightened intellectuals like "I" in the article were indifferent and overwhelmed by the current social situation of people's selfishness and the harsh world at that time.
