Wrinkles Carved by Time, a Hundred Years of Wandering and Rebirth

To readers: See you and me in the story Dear reader, no matter where you come from or where you are in the world, I hope you can read some resonance of your own from this family narrative that spans hundreds of years. If your family has a similar story of separation and reunion, may you feel the warmth and weight of history; if you are experiencing the wanderings of life, may you gain the courage and comfort to move forward; if you are concerned about the past and future of the motherland, may this book provide a vivid and profound footnote—it goes beyond empty slogans and returns to human emotions, human destiny, and human desires. In the end, what we long for is just to transcend all visible and invisible mountains and rivers, Let all the "wrinkles" carved by the years be gently smoothed by time and understanding, Let the wandering soul finally return home. I would like to dedicate this book to my father and mother, to my lover, children and grandchildren, and to all those who feel homesick and long for reunion. Although the sea is deep, it is not as deep as hope; Wrinkles may grow long, but they cannot last as long as time. I hope that every period of wandering will eventually reach the other shore; May every nostalgia echo.
