In the late 1940s, Longling, Yunnan.
Li Dehou fled his homeland with his wife and children and traveled south, crossing the Nu River, entering Myanmar, and entering northern Thailand, struggling desperately amid hunger, disease, and separation.
There was no land, no shelter, and of course, no way out. They can only start from the wilderness, build sheds, clear wasteland, farm, save family property, and build a family in a foreign land.
The first generation seeks to survive, the second generation seeks to gain a foothold, but the third generation begins to ask: Who are they and where will they return?
This is a three-generation family story about escaping for survival, pioneering wasteland and farming, starting from scratch, and the ups and downs of the family.
The story is not about legendary figures, but about the most ordinary family in the great era. How they lost their hometown and how they found a new hometown in a foreign land.
Reader comments
The author is very courageous. This type of "crossing the Guandong" type of works is actually not in line with the mainstream of the Tomato platform. I think the data is very average, because the mainstream of Tomato pursues fast pace and strong feedback. But what impressed me most about this book was the restoration of the sense of time and the tenacity of my father's generation. I hope the author sticks to his original intention and keeps updating. I have already recommended it to several sisters I usually dance with, and they all like to read it. Come on!
It's a very interesting and realistic story about the survival of people at the bottom. The protagonist doesn't have any exaggerated gold fingers and relies on himself. He's awesome and empathic. I highly recommend it!
It's a real grassroots legend. It's a hard work with both hands, no golden fingers.
Losing one's hometown and rebuilding one again, this theme makes my nose sore!
In that era and in that area, life was not easy for the protagonist. I hope he can break out in the future.
The story of taking root in a foreign land really brought tears to my eyes.
Opening up wasteland and building a family, taking root in a foreign land, this sense of perseverance is so impressive.
From escaping to becoming a family boss, all the hardships he has gone through are meaningful

It's been a long time since I've seen such a down-to-earth and powerful survival article.
Every step is like digging a way out in the mud, it's so real and makes me cry!
There are twists and turns in every chapter. I am looking forward to the following content.
The story of three generations of people who escaped from a refugee crisis and started from scratch is real and touching!
I like to watch spicy stories about the era the most, and I have grown up since I was young.
