For readers who love literature, this is a book that should not be missed. We lack the wisdom to judge the right or wrong, or the superiority or inferiority of today's children's situation. What moves them should be the power of morality, the power of emotion, the power of wisdom, and the power of beauty. The only thing we must remember is that what moves people is timeless. We are merely trying to see how these timeless elements manifest in new ways. This book collects nine short stories, including The Grass House, A Chu, The Red Gourd, Blue Flowers, and others. These works deeply portray the social environment and human sentiments.
