A heavy blow, intellectuals had to reconsider the value of their own existence. The male protagonist, the son of the housekeeper Lao Lu, was born in Xumen, a scholarly family. He was born intelligent and extremely intelligent. At the age of seven, he had memorized the books of a hundred schools of thought by heart. Seeing this situation, the master of the Xu family was very happy when he saw this, and adopted him as his adopted son, and at the same time, he often brought him by his side to train him. Since then, the clever little hero has an older brother and a younger sister, and they often play together. My elder brother has been familiar with three thousand ancient studies since he was a child. My sister is even more intellectual and virtuous. The three of them gradually grew up under the love and supervision of the old Hanlin. It is a pity that in the thirty-first year of Guangxu, the imperial examination system was abolished, and my father went to Beijing to admonish to keep the imperial examination, but the mighty trend of history could not be stopped, and my father finally wept blood in the Forbidden City, and Xumen withered. The three young men, the hero, brother, and sister, also started their own ups and downs in the troubled times
