Synopsis: In the 1949 immigration wave, thousands of people came from the mainland to the south, facing an unknown fate and crawling forward. The author's mother also came to Hong Kong from Xingning, Meizhou at that time. Like many immigrants, she bravely changed her own destiny and opened a new page in Hong Kong's history. This young Hakka girl got married in Hong Kong, but ran away from her husband's family in an unspeakable grievance. A marriage that seemed to be there or not, dragging children and poverty, but she did not complain, embracing life with flexibility. "The runaway mother" lived comfortably in the hard days, allowing her children to live with dignity and love. The author narrates the vicissitudes of Wanchai, Wong Tai Sin, Li Zhengwu, Deep Water Bay, Kwai Chung and other areas from the 1950s to the 1970s, depicting the life of a strong woman and an era.
