Qingyu Smoke

In the 1990s, Qingyu Village in the deep mountains of Yimeng was isolated, barren, and trapped by layers of bluestone mountains. Everyone in the village lives by guarding the terraced fields, believing in mountain gods and respecting springs for the elderly. They live a life of poverty and stability, but also suffocation. Zhou Wangshan, who had been away for five years, suddenly returned, wearing a suit and leather shoes, spending a lot of money, and became the most eye-catching alien in the mountain. He brought back money, knowledge, and a fierceness that no one could suppress. As soon as he came back, he built new houses, engaged in transportation, and helped the villagers solve their problems. However, he made the elderly people jealous and the clan forces secretly excluded him. No one knew that he came back not only to make money, but also to settle a relationship buried deep in his heart - when he was forced to run away, he failed to protect the woman he loved, Su Hongying. Now, Su Hongying has been a widow for many years, struggling with her young son, being manipulated by her husband's family, and being gossiped about. She lives a tolerant and difficult life. Zhou Wangshan blatantly protected and helped her, and made it clear that he wanted to marry her, which instantly caused the whole village to criticize. Old rules, old faces, clan grievances, and jealousy and calculations among neighbors all came to light. Some people want to drive him away, some want to use him, and some want to see him ruined. On the one hand, there are the rules and prejudices that have been observed in the mountains for hundreds of years; on the other hand, there is the bloody spirit of daring to love, hate and not accepting fate. Zhou Wangshan relied on his tenacity to make his way on the Qingshi Ridge and kept his sincerity amidst the rumors. This is a story of struggle and redemption in the deep mountains of Yimeng. It describes the love, hate, struggle, dignity and hope in a poor mountain village. There is no bloody curiosity, only the most authentic local people's hearts.
