About This Novel
When my aunt came in, grandpa was sitting in the main room drinking tea. The tea is the finest Biluochun, brewing into a shallow pool of clear water in a tureen with blue flowers on a white background. Because this tea was sent by Ma Jin, a confidant of Zhao Baoyuan, the temporary commander of the 12th Army Division in the Sulu Theater of the Kuomintang, my grandfather cherished it very much and tasted it carefully, trying to taste something other than tea. When the tea was exhausted, Grandpa fully felt Zhao Baoyuan's kindness to him. Suddenly, his whole body was enlightened and he felt extremely comfortable. He put down the tea bowl, closed his eyes and memorized Su Shi's "Red Cliff Nostalgia", "I think back to Gong Jin's time, when Xiao Qiao got married for the first time. With a majestic appearance, a feather fan and silk scarf, while talking and laughing, the oars and oars disappeared into ashes." My aunt came in at this time, wearing a moon-white cheongsam and carrying a light yellow wicker box, followed by a panicked grandma.
