Peach and Lotus

Yuetang is an ancient town in the south of the Yangtze River. A hundred years ago, 19-year-old A Tao moved to this strange water town with her husband's family. Her husband's family was good at making sesame seed cakes, and he has completely taken root here since then. Because she was a child bride and took her husband's surname of Zhang, others called her Zhang Atao. Only Liansheng didn't call her that. He called her: A Tao. Liansheng is a famous orphan in the town. His father died young, his mother ran away, and his grandmother took him away until he was ten years old. If he hadn't been much prettier than ordinary people since he was a child, and the neighbors saw him pitifully and gave him alms to eat, he would have died long ago. A Tao was beaten half to death by her husband at night. When she was standing at the door selling sesame cakes with her face covered in bloody scabs in the morning, Liansheng walked over quietly, looked at the scars on her face, and asked softly: "Are you okay?" She cried. Liansheng rummaged through his body and took out a handkerchief and handed it to her. She took it and found a big hole in the handkerchief. Liansheng smiled awkwardly. The next day, he sent her a new handkerchief. In the middle of the night, her husband beat her hard again. The sound was so loud that Liansheng, who was keeping watch all night, rushed in, beat her husband and took her to the hospital. Even though Liansheng's behavior caused A Tao to be beaten more severely by her husband in the future, her long-dead heart was completely revived. A Tao seduced Liansheng, and Liansheng fell in love with her desperately. The two often meet privately when no one is around, plotting to escape Yuetang together, hide their names in a foreign land, and become an upright couple. But the adultery was soon discovered, and according to the township law, both of them were sentenced to death. A Tao was afraid of death, so she ran away and ignored Liansheng. A hundred years later, the reincarnated A Tao once again stepped into the realm of Yuetang. She walked to a pond and formed a formation. After waiting for a day and a night, Liansheng, soaked to the skin and pale in appearance, emerged from the pond. He looked at the woman standing on the shore and asked quietly: "A Tao, are you back?" Purpose: Reject domestic violence and pursue freedom
