The Old Locust Tree Family

The Gu Huai family is known for its virtue of helping those in need and its tradition of valuing education. From a young age, the children worry about the nation and its people. Later, they leave home to study, join the Party, and devote themselves to the revolution, sowing the seeds of revolution. The men leave their families to fight on the battlefield, leaving the old and young at home without support. They suffer exploitation by Japanese puppet forces and bandits, endure hardship after hardship, and finally await liberation and news from the men at the front.
