Introduction to the work:
That year, the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus permeated the entire bluestone road. Seventeen-year-old Yang Jingzhi stepped out of the rickshaw carrying a rattan box, thinking that what greeted her was just a tender time in a small town in the south of the Yangtze River.
She thought that the girls' school was a school with bright and clean windows, but she first learned to pick up the mud-stained bedding by the dry well.
She thought the new clothes were a sign of her sister's affection, but they became evidence of her "restlessness" in the eyes of others.
She believes that articles are a powerful tool for expressing one's feelings directly, but she must first learn to hide the edge in roundabout words.
Until she touched a yellowed manuscript in the dusty wooden box in the clerk's room - it was a letter that Qiu Jin had never sent. The words were hot and had been silent for more than ten years.
Until she discovered that the girl at the same table would secretly ask her at night: "Jingzhi, can women really only marry?"
Until a controversy over her submission made her see clearly: the coldest arrows often come from the nearest dark place.
This is a story about "hidden front" and "luminous".
From the scent of osmanthus in the old house in the south of the Yangtze River to the smell of ink in the monthly magazine in the provincial capital; from the deliberately excluded "others" to the quietly ignited fire - every step Yang Jingzhi takes, she steps on the cracks of the fission of the times.
The surface is: The story of a young girl studying in the Republic of China + the healing system of Jiangnan water town + best friends supporting each other
The reality is: the history of the awakening of women's consciousness + the battleground between old and new ideas + the undercurrent of growth.
There are grandma here who eats sweet-scented osmanthus candy with you, and classmates who stab you with a smile;
There are sisters who sew for you under the lamp, and there are gentlemen who pave the way for you secretly;
This is a female growth article, counterattack, inspirational, not much emotional drama, not a cool article.
