From the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, the story begins to describe the rise and decline of Fengzetang of the Zhang family, a wealthy businessman in Chaozhou Prefecture, to the turning point in the fate of the characters in Huaxi Town during the Great Revolution. The heroine of Fengzetang burned herself under the Moon Gate as the climax of the story. Until after the great revolution, the fate of the Zhang family changed, spanning nearly 100 years. The story describes Huizhou merchants and the changes in ancient towns such as Huaxi and Yuncao. The fate of the characters begins in the late Qing Dynasty and ends in the early days of liberation. Reading today, it interprets a period of history and humanity, taking you into the streets and alleys of the ancient town, looking for the misty rain, the stone street, the oil-paper umbrella and the woman in the cheongsam... The stone alleys of the ancient town are still there, and the story goes into history; the vast canal is still flowing slowly... The osmanthus tree in the Moon Gate is still fragrant...
Intention: The gurgling flower stream is the forgetful water, and people feel pain when the sweet-scented osmanthus falls. The grudges have never left a trace; the long sail is no longer flying, and the thoughts are almost hazy. Three generations of people have died in a large house, looking back at the Moon Gate. A handful of loess buries the beautiful bones; the chapters are endless, it is difficult to say that the daughter is red.
