This book is a full-length novel that directly addresses the immigration story of China's overseas immigration wave. In the 1960s, my elder sister Zhang Peiyin stayed in the mainland for various reasons, while my younger sister and younger brother went to Hong Kong and Japan with their parents. More than 30 years later, Zhang Peiyin was about to be promoted to deputy manager of a department store in Dalian. However, in order to go abroad to Japan to pan for gold, she gave up her husband and two children and flew to Tokyo alone to find her relatives. When she arrived in Tokyo, she discovered that life as an overseas immigrant was not easy. The relatives living in other places did not become rich, but lived a depressing second-class citizen life. What disappoints her even more is that most of the new Chinese immigrants are doing "three-risk jobs" that the Japanese are unwilling to do, and many of them are doing "illegal jobs." Scorned and ostracized by the Japanese. The grievances caused by history and parents, the misunderstandings caused by distance and time and space, plus cultural obstacles and collisions: all these are what the two sisters have to face. Eventually, the sister reached a reconciliation with her relatives.
