Slow Fire in the World

Reality of the era｜Female growth｜Family ethics｜Country group portraits In the early 1970s, three-year-old Tian Xiu cried for cake. There was no food at home, so her mother kneaded cakes out of mud and coaxed her to watch the stove fire. She said the cakes would be cooked when the stove fire went out. She waited and waited and waited... Finally when the fire went out, the fire was out, but the cake was not cooked, and her mother would never come back... From then on, she grew up with her alcoholic father, and learned to eat less, cry less, and look at other people's faces through hunger and beatings. That mud cake became a childhood that she could never get out of.
