Daybreak of Lily in Troubled Times

During the war of the Republic of China, Lin Wanqing, a girl from northern Jiangsu, was sold by her father as a child bride at the age of fourteen. She struggled to survive under the oppression of her foolish husband, her bitter mother-in-law, her evil father-in-law, and a bachelor in the market. Even her mother persuaded her to bow to her fate. Until the arrival of the Eighth Route Army was like dawn, she resolutely cut off the shackles and joined the party organization. After making an engagement with Chen Jingming, she transformed into "Lily" and lurked in the Kuomintang camp. The road to hiding was full of thorns, her fiancé's misunderstanding loomed over her, and her comrade "Morning Star" died heroically to protect her. During this period, she had an emotional entanglement with Shen Yizhen, a KMT lieutenant colonel who secretly joined the party. After Shen Yizhen was seriously injured, the two talked to each other. After the founding of New China, they entered the marriage hall and joined the wave of national construction. For the next half of his life, Lin Wanqing led women's literacy eradication and founded a textile club to free women from their constraints; Shen Yizhen took root in the front line of politics and law, guarding peace with justice. The pocket watch gears have been turning for half a lifetime, from the war of the Republic of China to the warm sunshine of New China, they used their faith to illuminate the darkness and stayed together to warm the years. The broad bonds of life and death and the responsibility for family and country that are hidden in time will eventually turn into the fragrance of locust flowers and the white color of gardenia, and will remain forever on the land they guard with their lives.
