"Gao Jia lin Clan" (consisting of Ma Jian qiang, Gao Jia lin, Sun Shao an and Sun Shao ping ) is not only the key characters in the fictions by Lu Yao, but also the focus to express the author's rational thinking and aesthetic pursuit. This paper, probing into the "urban and rural intersecting district" from the cultural and socio-psychologial aesthetic point of view, deals with the concrete analysis of the beginning, growing and mature process of "Gao Jialin Clan", and furthermore penetrates into the spirits connections among the members of the clan. And hence it reveals the importance of "Gao Jialin Clan"and further understanding the theme and style of Lu Yao's writings.The spirits characteristics of "Gao Jialin Clan" lies in exerting themselves and making achievement despite humble origin, bravely confronting and enduring hardships, being self-abased as well as having self-esteem, and inspiring youth for the ideals and spirits. This spirits characteristics came into being for both subjective and objective reasons. In subjective aspect, some literate young peasants in the impoverished villages of the Loess Plateau are not satisfied the situation and go into cities with the development and progress of the times and economic adjustment (especially the reform and opening to the outside world ), so they pursued new lives in the urban and rural intersecting district. In objective aspect, it benefits from Lu Yao's writing practices to discover the urban and rural intersecting district and continually cultivating and surpassing the greatspirits as well as his passionate devotion to the literary creation and life. The cardinal reason that contributes to "Gao Jialin Clan" struggle in life is the differences between cities and coutrysides as well as living confusion, and they are also the fundamental reasons resulting in the tragic life of the clan. The weak group, Gao Jialin Clan, living the contrast background of the city and coutryside, challenged the "controlled" life (including love) in the "urban and rural intersecting district" and undergo an extremely hard struggling course ,so its name implies their tragic fate.The spirits tranfering of "Gao Jialin Clan" is the socio-psychological literature evolution of the given time (1961, early 1980s, 1975-1985). The social compelling psychology is the internal force for Gao Jialin Clan to struggle in life, and it is also the basic reason for their spirits evolution (chang ). Social compelling psychology and inertia psychology form the joining forces, which result in the continuous evolution of Gao Jialin Clan's personality and becoming mature. At the life chain of the clan development and growth, Ma Jianqiang is in the early youth, and Gao Jialin lies in the growing period (on the rise) of the clan, whereas Sun Brothers exist in mature period, which is the split and extention of Gao Jialin's image."Gao Jialin Clan" is the true son of the earth, and folk hero. Their successful model does not only add a real hero image with a complete personality to Chinese contemporary Literature history but also reveals Lu Yao's unique arts soul and great charms of his realistic works, that is to show national soul history by means of realism.Lu Yao has become a important monument of realism in China in 20 century due to his adhering to realism for ever.
