The Complete Works of Lu Yao: Life includes three novellas: Life, Yellow Leaves Falling in the Autumn Wind, and You Can't Imagine It. Life is a novella by Lu Yao, published in 1982. It is set against the backdrop of urban and rural life in the northern Shaanxi Plateau during the reform period, and tells the story of Gao Jialin, a high school graduate, returning to the land, leaving the land, and then returning to the land. The emotional entanglement between Gao Jialin and the rural girl Liu Qiaozhen and the urban girl Huang Yaping constitutes the contradiction in the development of the story, and it also reflects the tragedy of difficult choices.
"Yellow Leaves Falling in the Autumn Wind" is a novella written by Lu Yao, a famous contemporary Chinese writer. The work was published in the 1980s and is one of Lu Yao's early works. It won the first National Excellent Novella Award. After her parents died one after another and she failed to get into college, the stubborn Lu Ruoqin had to lock up the old house in the small town in the Guanzhong Plain with a big iron lock and moved to the deep valley of the mountains on the Loess Plateau with her brother. She didn't care that she came from the rich and prosperous plains to this barren and desolate valley. Of course, there was another reason for this: her dear brother was by her side. Her brother was promising. Although he was less than 40 years old, he was the deputy director of the Education Bureau of this county. Although she had basically never lived with her brother, she knew that he was a man of great talent. From the short time she spent with her brother every time he came back to visit his family, she felt that he was both knowledgeable and cultured, which made people respect him. She always felt proud of having such a good brother. Now she came to his side, just like a ship in the storm sailing into a calm harbor. Of course, outstanding people often encounter unfortunate fates, and her brother was just like that. Two years ago, his sister-in-law died of illness, and he lived alone with five-year-old Lingling...
