Lijiazhuang, Goda Town, Daming County, Handan City, this land wrapped in loess and cooking smoke, hides the simplest rules of survival - marriage is a woman's second reincarnation, and childbirth is a must-answer in life. But the sisters Deng Yunjin and Deng Yunhe decided to break this established trajectory: Deng Yunjin, who was in her thirties, returned to her hometown in embarrassment after traveling in the big city. She guarded a small shop and turned her fear of intimacy and childbirth into armor. The shocking condition of "separating after marriage" was thrown at the blind date table; forty-year-old Deng Yunhe entered into marriage four times and escaped four times. He led his daughter to move forward stubbornly amidst rumors, but never gave up his desire for "uncompromising" love. . This book takes the lives of the two sisters as a thread, unpacking the struggles of older rural women between tradition and self, compromise and perseverance, and tells how they break away from the labels of "leftover women" and "divorced women" and live the lives they want.
