Abstract: Fu Niu is one of the representative works of rural novels in the 1980s. The author ZHOU Daxin adopts a dual line narrative to narrate the emotional entanglement between young people ZHOU Zhaojin, Xilan, and the "mute girl" Qiaoqiao in Niuwan Village. By comparing the different living worlds of humans and cows, the author reveals the historical roots of their tragic lives. Their tragedy is a tragedy of the times, a tragedy of the family, and a tragedy of human nature. The author uses the multiple tragedies of Fu Niu to foresee the comprehensive impact that the social transformation period is about to bring to traditional rural society. These impacts are reflected in the imperfect grassroots governance system in rural areas, the incomplete replacement of new and old concepts of marriage and love, and the evil beneath in human psyche in the interpersonal relationships of rural society, which still have reflective value for today's social reality.
