"When He Zongze met Li San for the first time, he felt that she was like a natural sculpture of a work of art, even though she had fallen to the bottom and her soul was in pieces."
In his 32nd year, He Zongze followed the school's arrangements and went to Taohua Town, a poor mountainous area, to support teaching.
There he met Lisa, a troubled girl.
The book says——
Lucky people are healed by childhood throughout their lives, and unfortunate people are healed by childhood throughout their lives.
Li San felt the same way.
She often dreamed of the lame man looking drunk, with the dim incandescent light above his head shining into his red eyes, baring his teeth like a leaping beast. The cane was drawn on the body, numbing the pain, and red marks spread crisscrossed on the white flesh, and the blood was mixed in, as if a delicate and beautiful flower had bloomed.
Li San was six years old at the time, and now she is sixteen. She has never called the word dad again.
