Achang

Chang, also known as Chang Ma, is vulgar and uneducated, but she also has her own simple, sincere and kind side. She was Lu Xun's nanny when she was a child. She trampled Lu Xun's favorite Tibetan mouse to death. She likes to talk and watch the fun, but she also has a warm heart and always pays attention to the needs of children. For example, she observed that Lu Xun really wanted to own Shan Hai Jing and gave him a copy. The two aspects of contradiction make Lu Xun a little annoyed, respectful and impressed.

The description of Chang also shows Lu Xun's impression and feelings towards the working people at the bottom. Although they have some minor faults, their simplicity, kindness and sincerity are commendable.

father

His father once puzzled Lu Xun. In Musashi Hui, Lu Xun's description of his father is undoubtedly an inhuman strict father, suppressing children's playful nature, forcing them to recite, and destroying children's nature.

Creation background

During the period of 1925, when Lu Xun was a university lecturer in Beijing, he was attacked and excluded by the so-called "gentlemen" for supporting the student movement. 1926, the Beiyang warlord government shot and killed progressive students, creating the "March 18th" tragedy.

Lu Xun, the author, wrote a series of articles, such as "In Memory of Liu Hezhen", enthusiastically supported the students' just struggle and accused the Beiyang warlord government of cruelty. As a result, he was wanted by the authorities and had to take refuge in Xiamen. Although all the works in Morning Flowers and Evening Picks are reminiscing about the past, they are also making use of the topic to insinuate and ridicule the social reality at that time.
