This is a book about family ethics, about the short-lived and smoldering lives of ordinary Chinese families. The male head of this family is He Changsheng. After the founding of the Republic, he moved his family from Yangzhou to Jiangdu to Anhui to support construction. He longed to have a son to start a family, but he had six daughters in the next twenty years, and finally passed away in a car accident. The old lady of the He family, her daughter-in-law Liu Meixin, and her six granddaughters ushered in the era of women heading the family. The story starts from the difficult period, to the reform and opening up, the wave of layoffs, and the wave of going overseas to do business. It is told from the perspective of the six sisters of the He family, ordinary women. It not only shows the shortcomings of the parents of the six sisters in the family, but also the modern spirit of the women to strive for progress and strive for independence. This is an inspirational story of three generations of a female family with a grand structure, and it is also a template for the transition from conflict to reconciliation with the original family.
