Intense movie plot

This film is based on Shi Guo's novel The Tempest.

After liberation, Lifu's wife and Zeng Liangju became closer and closer. Yang Chunmei, the daughter of Lifu's sister-in-law, is also 20 years old, and she also has a satisfactory object, namely Zhu Xiaochang, a young man from the village.

Although Yang Yongcheng, the head of the Yang family, is also a farmer, he has a kind heart; But he was deeply influenced by the old society and had strong feudal thoughts. He is very conservative and backward in dealing with marriage. He didn't like Lifu's wife's relationship with Zeng and thought it was a disgrace to the Yang family. He listened to the bad idea of fortune teller Yang Tiezui Yang Yongde, and wanted to marry Zeng by the method of "body double".

Chun Mei is a brave girl. She knows the benefits of marriage law and the loveliness of new life and freedom of marriage. With the leadership and support of the Party, she and the younger generation in the village fought resolutely against the feudal ideology headed by Yang Yongcheng. Yang Yongcheng held a family meeting and used Yang's "family law" to punish Chun Mei, a "wild girl" who dared to rebel against the patriarch, and the widow of Lifu, a "male thief". However, the awakened masses firmly supported Chun Mei's mother and daughter, tore up the "family law" that always served the landlord class and oppressed the poor, and publicized the marriage law promulgated by Chairman Mao.

Feudal thought was severely hit, and Yang Yongcheng and others finally turned over a new leaf. Under the protection of the Marriage Law, Mrs Lifu and Zeng were married and Zhu Xiaochang were also married. They work happily in pairs.
