It is another thought-provoking and sad movie. The story shows the asymmetry of thousands of years of history. In that era, a woman's chastity was more important than her life. Even now, men still value a woman's chastity very much, even if she Her soul is pure, even though she is beautiful, kind, honest, and hardworking.

The sadness of the heroine's life stems from the fact that her parents wanted to get rid of their lowly status. When they heard from the priest that their family was originally a noble family, they began to regard themselves as superior to others, and wanted to get help from others for nothing. The woman went to her family's rich relatives to recognize her relatives, From then on, her tragic fate followed her closely. The young master of a wealthy relative insulted her. She gave birth to a son and died. Where is the young master at this time? She is charming in the dairy factory, who is beautiful and unhappy all day long, isn't she? The male protagonist is fascinated by her beauty and shows her love, but she has always been inferior and suppressed her desire. She thought she finally got happiness, but after marriage, when she confessed to him, what she got was his abandonment, and her sky fell.

She resolutely went and started to work as a coolie. She was still not redeemed between the pain and exhaustion. Others called her a bitch. The death of her father caused her family to be displaced. The mistress of the scumbag, in the end, she still loves the male protagonist, she chooses to kill her lover and starts running away with the male protagonist, until she falls into the legal net...

In any case, I am very happy that the male protagonist spent the rest of her life with her in the end.
