Zhang Henshui's Classic Works Series: Wild Geese Flying from the North to the South
About This Novel
From the late Qing Dynasty to the early years of the Republic of China, Yao Chunhua, the daughter of Yao Tingdong, a master of the Jingguan School in Sanhu Town, Xingan County, and Li Xiaoqiu, the son of Li Qiupu, a Lika master in Sanhu Town, went from "encountering each other by chance at the Ganjiang River Ferry" to "looking for each other on the Lantern Festival Street." The two later studied together in the Jingguan School and became "classmates of inkstone paper", and then developed into a pair of lovers who knew each other and loved each other. But just because Yao Chunhua already had a family (her parents forcibly betrothed her to a poor man from Guanjiazhuang in Linjiang Prefecture) and was bound by the old ethics of the three obediences and four virtues in feudal society, the lovers never got married.
