A Beautiful Piece of Music

Qin Qingsong and Cai Sijie, one wise and the other foolish, were classmates in private school when they were young. Later, both of them participated in the revolution. In the 1950s, Qin Qingsong served as district chief, and Cai Sijie served as township chief under him. In the 1960s and 1970s, with the madness of the soul-torn class struggle, the ups and downs of the two people were reversed. Cai Sijie was at the height of his power and served as the Propaganda Minister of the county party committee, while Qin Qingsong was demoted to the president of a rural middle school. His old subordinates became his new boss today. Qin Qingsong has a very outstanding daughter, and Cai Sijie's son is a classmate with him. Cai Sijie personally came to propose marriage for his son, but Qin Qingsong politely refused, but later married his daughter to a thief who had been working in a supply and marketing cooperative for two months during difficult years and stealing biscuits and cans.
