Summary "豐收" by Zi Ye is a novel written in the early 20th century. It depicts the struggles of a rural family in the face of natural disasters and economic hardships, focusing on the main character, 雲普叔, and his family as they face overwhelming adversity in their agricultural life. The opening of "豐收" introduces 雲普叔, who is anxiously awaiting the arrival of the Qingming Festival while grappling with chilling weather and the recent memories of past years fraught with natural disasters. He and his wife, 雲普嬸, discuss the dire state of their farm and fear another devastating year similar to the previous one as they juggle the responsibilities of caring for their children. As they reflect on the trauma of last year’s calamities—where the family faced starvation and lost loved ones—雲普叔 becomes increasingly desperate to find solutions to their dire situation, determined to avoid repeating history and secure a better future for his family. Through vivid descriptions and emotional introspection, readers are drawn into the harrowing realities of their lives, establishing urgent stakes for the family's survival amidst unpredictable weather patterns and economic despair.
