On a snowy night in the twelfth lunar month, Li Fugui was born in a very poor adobe house. His father was a mute in the mines, and his mother used an old sewing machine to support the family. Later, he met Wang Xiulan, a girl pushed by fate, in a small restaurant in the town. With a bowl of dumplings and the words "I want to marry you", they thought that the hard days would gradually become sweeter. But life is not like this. The child was gone and her money was defrauded. She said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to count on anything in my life with you," and then left. When she came back twenty years later, the jujube trees were still there, but the people were gone. Not all separations lead to reunions, and not all reunions come in time.
