Synopsis

In the early spring of 1963, the rice tofu stall in Furong Town, known as "Furong Fairy" Hu Yuyin, was crowded. She was beautiful, warm and attentive. However, the state-owned restaurant opposite was left out because of its poor service attitude. Li Guoxiang, the manager, was very annoyed. Hu Yuyin and her husband Gui Gui got up early in the dark and saved money to build a new house. On the day of its completion, Li mangeng, Secretary of the town Party branch, Gu Yanshan, director of the grain station, and his neighbors all came to celebrate. When the "four Qing" movement began, Li Guoxiang, as the leader of the working group, relied on the town's "land reform root" villain Wang Qiuhui to grasp the class struggle. Hu Yuyin handed over the 1500 yuan he had painstakingly saved to Li mangeng for safekeeping, and went to his distant relatives' home to take shelter. Li mangeng has been in love with her since childhood. Because Hu Yuyin's family background is not good and the organization is not allowed, he can't get together. Therefore, man Geng once vowed to protect Ganmei all his life. However, the cruel class struggle finally forced the cowardly man Geng to hand over the money to the working group. When Hu Yuyin returns to Furong Town, her new house has been confiscated and her husband committed suicide. She is also named Li Guoxiang and "new rich farmer". She wants to sweep the streets with Qin Shutian, the former director of the county cultural center, rightist and also known as "Qin naozi". In the cold light of the moon at night, she cried for her husband. However, the grass was yellow and the fog covered the grave. The young widow did not know where the road was.

Since 1966, China has entered an era of earth shaking and human demon reversal. Li Guoxiang, a former revolutionary cadre, was also found out and criticized together with Hu Yuyin and Qin Shutian. Wang Qiuhui, the backbone of the movement trained by Li Guoxiang himself, became the Party branch secretary of the town, while Li mangeng became his secretary. Just as Wang Qiuhui was on the rise, Li Guoxiang was transformed and integrated into the leading group again. Wang Qiuhui was too late to repent and hit himself in the mouth, complaining about his shortsightedness. He confessed his mistake to Li Guoxiang many times and showed his loyalty. Finally, he gained Li Guoxiang's trust again. Hu Yuyin and Qin Shutian were punished for sweeping the streets. When she was sweeping the street together, Hu Yuyin blamed Qin Shutian for her tragic experience. The latter once sang a congratulatory song that was later considered counter revolutionary when she married Gui Gui, and wrote a congratulatory couplet that was later considered counter revolutionary when her new house was built. For Hu Yuyin's resentment, Qin Shutian doesn't explain much, on the contrary, he often helps her secretly. On the Qingshiban Road, they can be heard sweeping the floor every morning. The cold comes and the summer goes, the flowers bloom and fall, and after more than three years of suffering, two twisted souls and two dry hearts finally hit out the spark of love. Love makes the rudeness of youth quietly return to Hu Yuyin's cheek. When she was pregnant, Qin Shutian went to apply for marriage and said sadly, "no matter how bad we are, no matter how black we are, even chickens, ducks, pigs and dogs, we can't forbid our marriage!" as a result, Qin Shutian was sentenced to 10 years' imprisonment and Hu Yuyin was sentenced to three years' imprisonment for pregnancy. Gu Yanshan, an old Party member who had been bleeding, wounded and paid a heavy price in the war of liberation, could not stand these leftist practices, but could not return to heaven. He had to drown his worries with wine. When Qin and Hu got married secretly, he suddenly appeared in front of them and congratulated them. When Hu Yuyin was in difficult labor, he stood up and saved her mother and son.

The dark clouds cover the sky and finally disperse. The hibiscus flowers bloom again. Hu Yuyin finally looks forward to Qin Shutian's return. The rice tofu stall is as lively as ever. Li Guoxiang has been promoted again. Wang Qiuhui, who specializes in sports, lives in a stilted building that has collapsed and people are crazy. Only the broken Gong that he knocked is still there. Although it is broken out of shape, it still makes a harsh sound, accompanied by his weak cry: "sports are over.
