    The highlight of this book is the opening scene where the protagonist sends his ancestor to his grave. The significance of an eighth-grade worker is something we modern people can't comprehend. In that fiery era, targeting an eighth-grade worker was seen by the authorities as the work of spies. Therefore, to deal with Yi Zhonghai, a direct confrontation was the only option. This is a courtyard house world without ancestors. Watch how the protagonist protects his wife and children, slaps Yi Zhonghai in the face, and kicks He Yuzhu!
