If reincarnation is a disease, we take three lives to cure it.
When the high fever of the new coronavirus broke through the barriers of time and space, folklorist Su Mian got a glimpse of the trajectory of his three lives during his illness. In the first life, she was Shen Qingwan, the wife of Marquis Jingyuan, who waited in the heavy snow for her husband to die in battle, and never slept a wink until his death. In the second life, she was Xu Muyao, the daughter of the Xu family. She was trapped in the suspicion caused by an earring and died in depression on an isolated island in troubled times. In her third life, she was Su Mian, who had just ended a ten-year relationship. She fell in love with Jiang Xunyan, who was also scarred, but she fell in love again with suspicion in her life. It wasn't until the white jade hairpin engraved with the word "no doubt" appeared again that she understood: the so-called fate is just the soul meeting again and again with unsolved issues, and trial and error again and again. The story makes us think: Is obsession too deep a curse or the starting point of redemption?
Highlights of the work
High-concept setting: The high fever of the new coronavirus has become a travel medium, and the epidemic isolation reflects the emotional gap.
Three-generation closed-loop narrative: the three lines of ancient times, the Republic of China, and modern times are intertwined, and the cause and effect are intertwined.
Keepsakes run through: a white jade hairpin witnesses three lives of vows, suspicion and final reconciliation.
Realistic Resonance: Difficulties in Every Life Directly Point to Modern Emotional Issues - Crisis of Trust, Communication Difficulties, and Original Scars.
This is not a simple story of "past and present life", it tells: when the soul is trapped in the cycle of "waiting → suspicion → precaution", how can we take the initiative to break fate and rebuild trust on top of the scars?
Reader comments
In the previous life, she waited in the snow, but in this life, he was trapped in doubt. The grudges from the past have not been resolved, and the love and hatred in this life are rekindled. Is it redemption or repeating the same mistakes?
This novel is about "obsession" - how those unfulfilled promises, unfulfilled chess pieces, and unspoken explanations can become a more powerful mark on the soul than Meng Po Tang. The scene of Shen Qingwan waiting in the snow is the burning life of Daiyu in "A Dream of Red Mansions"; the tears hidden by Xu Muyao continue the desolation of Zhang Ailing.
