"Pan Yongfu, the Doer" begins with "Cihang Pudu". The older generation of boatmen at the five ferries all have connections with Pan Yongfu. In this way, Pan Yongfu, who is good at work, has exerted his professional qualities in the process of building bridges, building reservoirs, and developing farms. A very outstanding and vivid point in the novel is the formation of a set of "logic of indifference": there is not much difference between the house and the wild land, there is not much difference between the water and dry land, there is not much difference between day and night, and there is not much difference between labor and rest. It's very interesting. The image of cadres who work hard and down-to-earth is vivid in Zhao Shuli's writings. The subject matter is close to life and the language is popular. It is one of Zhao Shuli's excellent works.

The protagonist of "Praying for Rain" is a Dragon King Temple in Jindouping Village. The novel shows the struggle of rural people against feudal superstition in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China and their final victory. The text is humorous and vivid, and it is a very excellent work. "Floor" explores the debate over who creates wealth between "floor" and "labor" in the context of land reform at that time, through a dialogue between two characters named Wang - landlord Wang Laosi and primary school teacher Wang Laosan. "Little Manager" tells the story of how Sanxi, a young Communist Party member, transformed Wang Zhong, the old owner of the cooperative, through learning and wisdom, and successfully managed the cooperative. These stories reflect that in that era, through learning, practice, and struggle, individuals were able to grow and push the collective forward.

Zhao Shuli's "Meng Xiangying Stands Up" is based on Meng Xiangying, the "hero who survived the famine" in the Taihang Mountains. It does not follow the narrative mode commonly used in liberated area literature, which mainly shows the heroic deeds of characters after they turn over, but chooses the arduous transformation process of "how a person becomes a hero from a non-hero". This makes the novel present an artistic style that is different from many "new women" works on the theme of transformation at that time, giving readers different reading experiences and different gains. It is a very excellent rural short story.

The protagonist of the novel, Fu Gui, was originally a capable young man. After his mother died, he owed money to Wang Laowan for weddings and funerals. He was exploited at all levels to gain land and debts. He had no choice but to gamble and steal. When he worked as a drummer, he was buried alive by the Wang family, so he had to flee. After liberation, he returned from the liberated area and only wanted to confront Wang Laowan and seek justice. Fugui's experience is the epitome of the old society's exploitation and devouring of the people at the bottom, and his finally daring to speak out and regaining dignity also demonstrates the power of the new society to break oppression and allow the people at the bottom to regain the value of life. Zhao Shuli's writing is full of "earthy flavor", simple and vivid, and accurately restores the rough texture of rural life, making it easy for readers to empathize with him. Times have passed, but the work still shines.

"Registration" is set in rural North China and focuses on the theme of marital autonomy. The story is mainly based on the marriage experiences of two generations, Xiao Moth and Ai Ai, and unfolds in two lines. When the little moth was young, she had a beautiful appearance and had a young man she liked. However, her parents arranged to marry Zhang Carpenter. After the marriage, she was severely beaten by Zhang Carpenter, which left her with serious inner trauma. The rest of her life was dull and depressed. When Xiao Fei Moth's only daughter Ai Ai grew up, she was young, beautiful, lively, and dared to resist. She fell in love with Xiao Wan, a young man from the same village. However, she encountered various obstacles. Ai Ai's peers Yan Yan and Xiao Jin also encountered similar predicaments, and both could not love their lovers. This work by Zhao Shuli details the experience of his mother, the little moth, from the time when the classical Arhat money became a token. The two generations were suppressed, suffered, and finally awakened, as if being pulled by a token. In the end, love won. The new institution of marriage triumphed. With the whole society booming, the ideological progress in rural society is encouraging and hopeful.

"Heirloom" is set in the rural areas of the liberated areas in the 1940s, and revolves around the conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in an ordinary family. It shows the collision of old and new ideas and the impact of social changes on family relationships. The core characters of the story are mother-in-law Li Chengniang and daughter-in-law Jin Gui. Li Chengniang guarded an old dowry box that she regarded as a "family heirloom", which contained needles, threads, rulers, scissors, thimbles, pliers, dozens of kilograms of old cloth, and other "household management experience" she had accumulated over the years. She believed that running a household should be frugal and make one's own decisions in everything, which she believed was the foundation for maintaining a family. Men work outside and women work at home and keep to themselves. These concepts of the old society collided with all kinds of discordant notes when they met Jin Gui, the daughter-in-law who came to the Li family at the time of the transition between the old and the new. The old box that is regarded as a "family heirloom" actually symbolizes the replacement of the old feudal family concepts by the new ideas of democracy and equality; it criticizes the conservative and backward feudal patriarchy and commends the new society's "collective negotiation" and "democratic housekeeping" and other new concepts for the benign transformation of traditional family relationships. The writing of the book is smooth, the contradictions and conflicts are reasonable, the language is very simple, and the strong local flavor is overwhelming, which reflects Zhao Shuli's creative style of "writing for farmers and about farmers".

The protagonist "I" and the woman met on the way to escape, and together they made a living by singing "Lotus Falls" and begging. From the initial dependence on each other in the pavilion to the wandering of the world for more than 20 years, the two formed a life community of "we are two people" while being hungry and cold. The novel runs through the melody of "Lotus Falling", which not only presents their difficult daily life of singing and selling on the street, but also metaphors their fate to be wandering like duckweeds. As the woman died of illness on a cold night, "I" continued to wander alone, repeating the murmur of "we are two people", savoring the warmth of the past and the absurdity of existence in loneliness. Mu Shiying used the fragmented narrative and delicate psychological description unique to the New Sensation School to embed the fate of individuals in the war into the intertwined scenes of urban and rural areas. This not only portrayed the powerlessness of the people at the bottom in the torrent of the times, but also gave the suffering a poetic lament through the folk art form of "Flowers Falling". This collection also includes "Black Peony", "Smoke" and "Portrait of a Platinum Female Body".

Finally, under the leadership of Lao Jiang, he joined the pirates and fought against exploitation with violence. Through its logic of "sharing the blessings and suffering the misfortunes", the novel tears apart the class rifts under the bustling city, and writes the indignant awakening of the marginalized in the desperate situation of survival in a cold and stern style. The lines are filled with accusations against the old order and the secret desire for an equal world. In addition to "Our World", this collection also includes two articles: "People Living on the Sea" and "Oilcloth". The former describes the wanderings of fishermen and sailors and their work in the wind and waves, describing the hardships and loneliness of life at sea. "Oilcloth" uses dock workers and oilcloth as the incision. The oilcloth is wrapped with sweat and livelihood, revealing the tenacity and humbleness of the people at the bottom under the weight of survival. All three articles are excellent works. They touch the body temperature of those on the margins with cold brushstrokes, and a feeling of incurable social ills comes over you.
