Traveling into the troubled times of the Republic of China, Cui Biyun pursued extreme egoism: saving life and making money came first, while revolution and saving the country took a back seat.
Warlords fighting? She is watching the fire from the other side; her compatriots are suffering? She looked coldly and indifferently. Anyway, if the sky falls, there will be others to carry it.
But she forgot that in troubled times, no one can survive alone. The Japanese army marched southward, the wealthy family was reduced to scorched earth, and the traitors took over to kill Zhongliang. Even her little wish to live a stable life became a luxury.
In a desperate situation, the self-interested person suddenly wakes up: if he wants to survive, he must first protect the mountains and rivers!
From then on, the style of painting changed. The former delicate and life-saving eldest lady became a ruthless figure in the revolutionary ranks. She was able to calculate the pros and cons, risk her own life, engage in intelligence, raise supplies, and fight against traitors, all with ease. From an outsider who watched indifferently, to a revolutionary who charged into battle, she proved with her actions that even if she is self-interested at heart, she can still burn her blood for her family and country!
Purpose: In troubled times, no one is alone, and the fate of the individual and the fate of the country and the country share weal and woe; hidden in the background of extreme self-interest is the true kindness and responsibility of human nature. In the tide of the times, ordinary people will eventually complete the spiritual transformation from "self-care" to "protecting the country" due to empathy and awakening.
