The Fallen Leaves Here Are Quiet

"The Fallen Leaves Are Quiet Here" tells the story of the ordinary and helpless life of a rural woman, Aunt Zhang. The story revolves around Uncle Zhang's stinginess. Aunt Zhang had seven daughters, the youngest of whom was a brat. Aunt Zhang had a chance to take a breath, and she no longer had to bear Uncle Zhang's glare. However, when Aunt Zhang took a breather, she suffered from stomach trouble again. The stingy Uncle Zhang thought that Aunt Zhang's stomach trouble was just a minor illness, so he bought Aunt Zhang a bottle of painkillers at the village health center. The girls gradually grew up in the eyes of Uncle Zhang and began to work. As a result, Uncle Zhang became the richest man in the village, a "household worth ten thousand yuan." While Uncle Zhang was immersed in the richness of the village, Aunt Zhang was already terminally ill. Several girls came back from working during the Chinese New Year. When they saw their mother, Aunt Zhang, who was terminally ill, they thought of their father, Uncle Zhang, who was stingy. The daughters were anxious and resentful. When the eldest daughter took Aunt Zhang to the county hospital for a check-up, she found that Aunt Zhang had advanced gastric cancer. The doctor suggested that Aunt Zhang go home to recuperate. There was no need for further treatment. However, when Aunt Zhang learned that she would die soon, she did not feel any pain or regret, but chose to accept it calmly. Aunt Zhang left the vicissitudes of life and went to another world. When Uncle Zhang faced loneliness alone, he suddenly realized that only loss is the most precious thing.
