Features: Beautiful young woman Sun Wan, as the first daughter-in-law of Sun Yat-sen, the provisional president of the Republic of China, was entrusted by Sun Yat-sen to Wang Boqiu, a talented scholar at Harvard University, for care during her studies in the United States. Over time, they fell in love and privately promised to each other, eventually giving birth to a pair of lovely daughters and returning to Shanghai. In fact, Wang Boqiu had a pre-arranged wife, Li Chengxiang, as designated by his parents in his hometown, which led to a tragic and timeless love story. This is a family history-style work written by Wang Hong, the grandson of Sun Yat-sen. The author takes the extraordinary and winding love story of his mother, Sun Wan (the daughter of Sun Yat-sen) and his father Wang Boqiu, as the main thread, revealing the hardships and struggles experienced by different generations of his family from the late Qing Dynasty, the Republic of China, to the post-liberation era. The book vividly portrays the life of his parents, the joys and sorrows of family anecdotes, and the heart-wrenching emotions it evokes are deeply moving and leave a lasting impression.
