"Five Sons Admitted to the Imperial College" is a microcosm of that period of history. The novelization uses the allusion of Dou Yanshan's five sons who were admitted to the imperial examinations in the Five Dynasties, and the family history of Jin Ziyuan, the reception commissioner in Peking, as a clue. It makes a bitter mockery of a series of shameless and shameless behaviors of the Kuomintang reception officials who frantically demanded and possessed "gold, houses, cars, women, and money." It is a "officialdom record" on the eve of the collapse of the Kuomintang regime.

In the early years of the Republic of China, Luoxia and Yuru were two miserable women who met in a nursing home. They were separated from their parents when they were young, and were sold by traffickers to work as servants in officials' families. They could not bear all kinds of abuse from wealthy families. Luoxia, who wanted to die, lost her mother in childhood. Yuru, who was bullied by her stepmother and regarded as a burden by her relatives, fell in love at first sight and became sisters with different surnames; but a trick of fate made them fall in love with the same outstanding man Jiang Qiuyu. It is this simple and unpretentious writing style that reached the realm of "natural and real". Therefore, after the novel was published, it was immediately adapted and made into a movie, starring the famous movie queen Hu Die.

Starting from the late period of the Anti-Japanese War, Zhang Henshui shifted his creative focus from romance to social criticism, and his writing style became increasingly heavy and sharp. "Intoxication" is a representative work of this period. In 1945, the National Government made Chongqing its capital. A group of drunken and dreamy dead gathered here. Everyone wants to get rich overnight. Small businessmen, bankers, courtesans, civil servants, old ladies, and even coolie workers are all involved in the "golden trend" caused by inflation.

It is full of a moral ideal and the sadness caused by the ruthless destruction of this moral ideal by reality. The detailed description of the characters in the book, the beginning of the flashback, and the semi-open ending of the million-word novel all go beyond the structure of ordinary chapter novels and are connected with new literary works. As a novel about a large family, "The Golden Family" is often compared not only with "A Dream of Red Mansions" but also with Ba Jin's "Family".
