Wen Shu's parents were the ones who suffered the greatest blow in that turmoil, and in order to spare her from so much hardship back then, they had her Aunt Wen Yu take her back home.
So from as far back as she could remember, Wen Yu had always been with her aunt.
In her memory, her aunt was a very beautiful woman, very much a lady from a good family, talented, a renowned gifted woman. She remembered how, on every midsummer night, her aunt would hold her as a little girl in her arms and sit at the desk reading collections of prose and poetry, and she remembered even more how, in order to get her to eat more nutritious food, her aunt would stay up all night copying documents by lamplight to earn money…
Many times adults think children don't remember anything, but that's not true. Even after more than twenty years, the most vivid person deep in her memory was still her aunt.
Yet this aunt whom she respected and loved so deeply was completely ruined because of the Duan Family!
