Sad and Warm Life

Introduction to "Sad and Warm Life" Author: Hong Linxiu The story takes root in the countryside around an ancient town in western Sichuan. The protagonist's life has been wrapped in "sadness" since the night of thunderstorms - because a broken hand was regarded as "unlucky", he was sold by his elders at a young age; his adoptive mother and adoptive father passed away one after another, and he was treated harshly by his adoptive grandmother; the friendship between childhood sweethearts was also scarred by prejudice and loss of contact. But "warmth" is always in my bones and blood: I kept my kind thoughts to help orphans and widows, and made an early wish to build a nursing home; I supported the burden of supporting my family by myself, raised money to build a nursing home, and persisted despite being looked down upon. In the end, I fulfilled my dream of being in a nursing home and helped my fellow villagers get rich. As a middle-aged man, I even found my childhood sweetheart to untie my knot and turn the pain of half a lifetime into the sweetness of the future. This is life in an ancient town in western Sichuan: sadness is the test of time, warmth is my own strength to live out.
