An Egg Left on a Snowy Night: A Barefoot Girl Born in the Sixties Makes a Comeback

Li Xiu, the most hard-pressed girl born in the 1960s, starts out abandoning an egg on a snowy night and fleeing barefoot for her life. With a Moonchasing Saber and a lucky copper coin, she studies, builds a factory, and leads her whole village to turn its fortunes around. Debt slips on snowy nights, confrontations at the lantern fair, twelve missing marks: every step is a dance on the edge of a blade! Qi Weiguo, a creditor, and the times themselves stand in her way, but they can’t stop her from cleaving through poverty and prejudice to forge a dazzling comeback.
