About This Novel
Where is the boat going? He didn't know yet, and he wasn't in the habit of asking questions. Sihai calmly accepts his fate. This is his personality and the national character. More than 10,000 Chinese workers came to a foreign land and made great contributions to the railway, which was the lifeblood of foreigners, for a meager salary. Many of them even lost their lives. However, after their success, there was no word, word or picture recorded. The blood and sweat of the Chinese are just like shadows. Sihai's mother has been waiting for her son to come back, and she is terminally ill. Sihai agreed to get married. He wanted to reassure his mother. Among the many women who proposed marriage, he immediately selected a girl named Cuixian. Cuixian is an extremely common name. But every man who has left his hometown always has a Cuixian in his heart.

"You as a nation will prosper one day."
I came across this book in the "You Stories" section of the bookstore. I thought it was interesting, so I read it in one sitting. This is my first time reading Shitai's book. When I was young, I thought this was an author only read by girls, similar to Qiong Yao. After reading it, I realized that I had wrongly blamed Master Tai for decades and was not on the same level as Aunt Qiong Yao. "When will we also have trains?" This sentence hit me. We have it, not only we have it, but it's the fastest in the world. When it comes to things in this world, we are never afraid of being late, we are just afraid of perseverance. Master's wife is worthy of being the little queen of golden sentences.
Yi Shu saw a century of honor and disgrace of the Chinese people in Canada
Yi Shu used to only write about the grievances between men and women, but now that he has been abroad for many years, he focuses on China's century-old history of honor and disgrace in modern times. The hard work of overseas Chinese should not be buried.
