The protagonist Zhu Sanmao graduated from the Agricultural University, but was unexpectedly assigned to teach. In the second year, the school assigned a beautiful teacher Zhang Yun, and they soon fell in love. But Zhang Yun's father appeared and introduced Zhu Sanmao to Bai Yifan. From then on, Zhu Sanmao changed his career to officialdom, and went to the county party committee office, township, and literary and art circles. Although he "drove carefully" along the way, he almost ended up in jail.
