This book is the latest collection of novellas by Zhang Ling, a renowned overseas Chinese writer and winner of the Chinese Literature Media Award. It includes two novellas: "A Visit to Master Cheng on the Minor Cold Day" and "Chronicles of the Epidemic Fox." "A Visit to Master Cheng on the Minor Cold Day" tells the story of journalist Wang Yu, who interviews Master Cheng Gaoyuan on the Minor Cold Day. The story connects Master Cheng's past with the Japanese invasion and focuses on his later years. Through a suspenseful and dramatic plot, the book depicts the joys and sorrows of these characters' lives in the midst of a great era. "Chronicles of the Epidemic Fox" tells the story of two women: an architect who gave up her profession to support her adopted daughter's future and moved abroad for many years; the other a middle-aged temporary worker who recently lost her daughter in a car accident. They share the unspoken burdens and regrets of life, each entangled under the same roof and in the garden.
