Summary "定情人" by Tianhuazangzhuren is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around a young scholar named 双星 (Shuang Xing), who is navigating the complexities of love and marriage as he seeks a suitable partner while honoring his mother's wishes. The narrative explores themes of romantic ideals and the challenges of conforming to societal expectations regarding marriage. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to 双星, a talented and attractive young man living in Sichuan after losing his father at a young age. Despite facing pressure from his mother and suitors to marry, 双星 remains resolute in his desire to find a true and compatible love rather than settling for social convenience. He decides to embark on a journey, blending his quest for education with the hope of encountering a woman who matches his ideals of beauty and intellect. In his travels, 双星 learns that true love is about authentic connection and mutual respect, setting the stage for his further adventures and encounters. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
