Dusty Notes

On a rainy night in late spring, Shen Yanzhi, the owner of Shiguzhai, came across a misty woman who was looking for orchid-grass notes from the Guangxu period. The woman's fingertips were cold, and the paper disappeared when she touched it. Only a stack of old Chengxintang paper was left, which led him to fall into the old shadow of the late Qing Dynasty - it was the regretful past of Qing Yuan, the owner of the paper, and Jing Ming, a young man who had studied abroad. The sentence "The orchid and the fluffy fruit are all the cause" hid the sadness of ten years of waiting. From then on, the shadow of Qingyuan's obsession always lingered in the studio, guarding the paper and a jade hairpin with a missing corner. Shen Yanzhi gradually realizes that Jingming is gone forever. Qingyuan writes notes to express her feelings until she dies of illness, but her soul is trapped in old things, waiting for no one who understands her Mo Hen's thoughts.
