Features: The "Er Pai" stories include 79 novels. Some chapters reflect the economic activities of merchants, describing their adventures in a joyful tone and expressing admiration for the pursuit of wealth through risk-taking. Other chapters expose the greed and cruelty of the authorities and the darkness of society, praising the chivalrous and powerful outlaws. In the chapters depicting love and marriage, the author often affirms women's rights, reflecting his egalitarian awareness in gender relations. To help young readers understand these famous works, we have selected some chapters with strong ideological and artistic value and adapted them into stories. To broaden readers' perspectives, this book also includes a "Guidance Corner" after each story, hoping to provide readers with a deeper understanding of these two masterpieces. We hope this book will give young readers a general understanding of the society and culture at that time.
