About This Novel
In Shanghai during the Anti-Japanese War, a progressive young woman named Han Shuying was framed by her aunt and forced to marry North Jiangsu tycoon Xie Bingyan as her concubine. Inspired by patriotic teacher Li Wenxuan, Han Shuying decided to escape from marriage and join the ranks of saving the country. However, due to her classmate relationship with the eldest son of the Xie family, Xie Tianci, she was discovered by the eldest daughter of the Xie family, Xie Ruoxue. The domineering Xie Ruoxue not only reported to her father, but also exposed Han Shuying's escape from marriage as an elopement, hoping to put Han Shuying, the "stepmother" to death. Just as Han Shuying's life was hanging on a thread, Xie Bingyan was shot dead by the Japanese because he was unwilling to betray his motherland. After witnessing everything, Han Shuying was deeply moved by Xie Bingyan's patriotic integrity, and resolutely chose to stay in the Xie family. In the name of Mrs. Xie, she saved the children of the Xie family. With the help of Li Wenxuan, she fled to Shanghai with Xie Ruoxue, and moved Xie Ruoxue with her practical actions. In the context of the times of war and iron horses, the two women Han Shuying and Xie Ruoxue not only depended on each other as "mother and daughter", but also performed a story of fighting against the war and saving the country as "sisters".
