This is a poignant love story.
Chen Zhaodi is the second daughter of mountain man Chen Zhaodi. When she was 18 years old, because the ravine beside the village was to be dug into the Tianhe River, the handsome and elegant image of Fang Xiaojun, the company commander of the migrant workers' regiment, ignited the girl's blood. From then on, a woman began to pursue her dream of becoming a wife.
Her parents thought Fang's family was poor, so to stop her, they put her in solitary confinement. Brave, she broke through the roof late at night and ran for freedom.
After marrying Fang Xiaojun, she started from scratch. Due to the shadow of elopement and the reputation of "running away from home", she had a dream in her heart. She wanted to be a dignified woman, as proud as her wife.
She supported her husband at all costs, shouldered the burden of the family, gave birth to children, and worked hard. Fang Xiaojun's career was successful, and Chen Zhaodi naturally became the "Madam."
However, Fang Xiaojun was imprisoned for "taking bribes". The lady's halo was shattered. The blame from her family and the harsh world did not crush Chen Zhaodi. She endured the humiliation and struggled to start a business, waiting for her husband to make a comeback. When everything was going well, she became ill from overwork. When she was dying, although her husband and children were not around, she was very calm. She felt that this life was worth it!
She is stubborn, brave and kind, traditional but fashionable, worldly but not worldly. She has her own "principles of recruiting children", she has her own way of living, and she is an independent woman.
This is a woman's life history and the struggle history of women born in the 1950s. Her shadow can be seen everywhere around us.
Her story is touching and tear-jerking, from which we can understand women and gain insight into society.
