This book is an essay written by the author Lao She in 1942. It mainly describes the author's change of view on hens, thereby praising the greatness and dedication of maternal love. The first half describes the hen's whining, bullying the weak and fearing the strong, and desperately showing off, recreating a shallow and kitsch hen; the second half describes the hen's responsibility, kindness, bravery and hard work, creating the image of a great "chicken mother". The author's feelings towards hens also changed from dislike to respect.
