Lao Cun's novel "Sao Tu" tells the story of Yangu Village at the beginning of the "Cultural Revolution". It describes rural life in a teasing and comedic style: When Ji's working group entered Yangu Village, he pointed out things in a serious way, and kept saying "class struggle" in every sentence, as if he was a villager. It is a political machine that does not eat the fireworks of the world; and those Party Secretary Ye, Company Commander Lu, etc. Who circle around this "imperial envoy" all day long, are all servile... The author uses "The True Story of Ah Q"-style plots to allow readers to see their ridiculous and humble souls in the cartoon-like characters.
