The personality characteristics of Zhao Zhenyu and his wife in Under the Roof of Shanghai are optimists, which always bring happiness to people. Mrs. Zhao, Gui Fen and Shi are four female images in Under the Roof of Shanghai. In 1930s, they lived in the deformed city of Shanghai. In the era of national peril, each of them seems blameless. From them, we can easily see the tragic fate of little people in semi-feudal and semi-colonial society.

A brief introduction to the story under the eaves of Shanghai

This description says that Kuang Fu, who was arrested and imprisoned for eight years, was released. He went to his friend Lin Zhicheng to inquire about the whereabouts of his wife Cai Yu and his daughter Bao Zhen, only to learn that his wife had lived with Zhicheng, because they had long heard that Kuang Fu was dead, so all three of them were caught in inner contradictions and pains that could not be relieved.

Cai Yu wants to pursue the happiness of the past with Kuang Fu, but when Lin Zhicheng wants to leave with guilt, they have been suffering together for eight years, and suddenly they feel hard to break up. Father Kuang understood and forgave them. Inspired by the children's upward spirit, he overcame his temporary weakness and sadness and left a sentence.

In addition to this main plot line, there are several groups of characters in the whole play, such as unemployed college students, women forced to sell themselves, primary school teachers who can't make ends meet, and old newsboys whose sons died in battle. These people are all huddled under one roof, playing a symphony of life for the little people.
