In the spring of the 34th year of the Republic of China, Shen Jingshu, the daughter of Linfen Silk and Satin Village, met Cheng Zhiyuan, a poor teacher on the bank of Fen River. A book called "Journey to the West" opened the door for her to be baptized by new ideas. In order to pursue love and ideals, she resolutely broke away from the shackles of family marriage and secretly married Cheng Zhiyuan, an underground party member. In the war-torn era, from the siege of Linfen to the liberation of the country, her courtyard deeply became the hidden thread of the revolution, and her love withstood the most severe test in the smoke of gunfire. This is the growth epic of a young lady of the Republic of China. It is also a magnificent elegy in which personal destiny and the country's rebirth are intertwined, witnessing the end of an old dream and the birth of a new world.
