Sisters Stand Up

Tong Li (played by Liang Ming) lost her husband very early and lived a life of dependence on her daughter Daxiang (played by Li Meng). The lonely mother and daughter went to the city to seek refuge with their aunt Sun (played by Tian Taixuan), where they met a man named Shang Youlin (played by Li Wei). The kind-hearted Shang Youlin often helps Tong Li, who lives in poverty. Over time, sincere feelings gradually develop between the two. The greedy and insidious Aunt Sun, together with Cui Huzi (played by Cui Chaoming) and Yan Zhihu (played by Li Lingyun), designed to sell Daxiang to a brothel run by them, and Daxiang became a prostitute. Seeing her daughter suffering inhuman treatment, the desperate Tong Li chose to commit suicide by jumping into the river. However, Shang Youlin did not give up hope and tried every means to redeem Daxiang, but ultimately failed. In 1949, when Peiping was liberated and the arrival of the People's Liberation Army, Daxiang finally regained her freedom.
