Literary

Because he was illiterate, Lin Hongyun misplaced the sad music at his father-in-law's funeral, creating a ridiculous "joyful oolong" that made the family a laughing stock in the village. This also became the last straw for her husband Su Shijiang, who repeatedly tried to end his life on the verge of collapse. After being forced into the city, she was illiterate and faced a cold and unfamiliar world. She couldn't even read the words on street signs and medicine boxes. Her neighbors looked at her with contempt, pointed behind her back, and even ridiculed her for being "uneducated" in person. Although her daughter-in-law took her in, she always spoke with a condescending alienation. In this city built of words, she became a blind person, unable to move even an inch. She, who didn't know a single Chinese character, stood at the crossroads of life, looking around uncertainly. Difficulties come one after another, like a net that becomes tighter and tighter. She didn't know how long the road was, but she knew that only literacy could save her husband from the abyss...
