Siheyuan: Fleeing Famine to the Capital

In 1952, the Yellow River flooded. Lu Weimin traveled from the modern era to Taohua Village in Lankao County, where he fled the famine by hopping a train with the girl next door, Cheng Zhihan. His eyes shone with a brightness unlike that of the other refugees. A black veil covered her face, leaving only her large eyes visible. As the train headed north, the scoundrels in the capital’s old courtyard had no idea who was hiding among the refugees.
