[Anti-involution cures slow life｜Artisan of intangible cultural heritage books｜Two-way redemption is powerful｜No blood, no sadomasochism]
Faced with endless classes and endless compromises, Su Wan gave up her stable job in a first-tier city and went to a small ancient town in the south of the Yangtze River to open a small shop that only repaired old books.
Moth-eaten family letters, damp genealogy, burnt poetry manuscripts... She carefully repaired every dusty human story.
In the old street, I met the mysterious hermit Lu Shiyan. He was a former top archaeological researcher who lived in seclusion in a small town due to the past.
She is good at fine mounting and restoration, and he is proficient in textual research and dating of cultural relics. They complement each other and slowly fall in love with each other in the ancient town of Yanyu.
Internet celebrity traffic, business invitations, and industry doubts came one after another. The two of them stuck to their true intentions, rescuing endangered ancient books, exploring lost ancient sites, and inheriting the intangible cultural heritage.
Stay away from the hustle and bustle, stay in an old shop, be with your loved ones, repair the old time with ingenuity, and turn ordinary days into peaceful years.
Purpose: 2. Break away from worldly standards and find your own destiny in life
Society and emotions are defining "success" in terms of materiality and utility, and workplace oppression and partner trade-offs constantly constrain the heroine. She takes the initiative to cut off the relationships and life that consume her, rejects a stereotyped life, and understands that stability is never about a high-rise mortgage, but that being able to devote yourself wholeheartedly to love and following your heart is true perfection.
