This book tells the story of a beautiful, clever Yi girl who lived over a thousand years ago in the Wusa region of Guizhou. Her name was Mo Chu Anuo Chu.
She lost her mother when she was young, and her father was away most of the year. With no one to look after her, he could only marry another woman, hoping she would treat his daughter well.
At first, the woman treated Mo Chu Anuo Chu extremely well, but after giving birth to Anuo Gou, she gradually began to neglect her.
In the end, Mo Chu Anuo Chu had no choice but to leave home and search for her mother. She traveled by day and night, enduring the elements, and it took her a month to find her.
She had thought they would be together once she found her mother, but her own cleverness cost her that chance.
