About This Novel
Button is one year older than Chang Xiao'e. When they were children, they often played house together. Button plays the role of the groom, and Chang Xiao'e plays the bride. Button stole a red scarf from home and put it on Chang Xiao'e's head. He held her hand in a serious manner. As he walked, he reminded Chang Xiao'e in a low voice, "You are crying. Why don't you cry anymore?" In Button's memory, every big girl in the village didn't cry when they got married. But Chang Xiao'e not only didn't cry, she also kept laughing. The friends who followed sang over and over again: Xiao'e, Xiao'e, if you don't cry, just around the corner will be your house; Xiao'e, Xiao'e, if you don't smile, just around the corner, I will be your stove. Chang Xiao'e laughed even harder. There was nothing I could do about the buttons, and I thought to myself, Chang Xiao'e is really stupid. I will never ask her to be my wife when I grow up. Button thought this way, just out of anger.
