About This Novel

When I was born, it was the time of reform and opening up. From large collectives cooking in large pots to land contracting and dividing responsibilities among households, China's rural areas experienced rapid and earth-shaking changes. After land was contracted to each household, farmers became more motivated, grain output increased, and farmers' pockets bulged. Chinese farmers were no longer limited to food and clothing, but had greater ideals and goals. As the spring breeze of reform and opening up blows across the land of the motherland, Western culture has gradually penetrated into China's rural areas. The traditional Chinese simple culture is undergoing severe tests, and family traditions are gradually being changed. Everything is always divided into two, pros and cons coexist, life is rich, people's emotional life has also changed with the changes in social productivity, joys and sorrows, joys and sorrows, those once simple aesthetics are gradually disappearing, and we are greeted by new challenges and new tests. Xicun, a remote mountain village on the border of southern Shaanxi, is a microcosm of China's vast rural areas. From poverty to riches, from wealth to greed, the weaknesses of human nature are reproduced all the time. But the simple beauty of Chinese farmers has a long history. The protagonist of the novel was born into a poor peasant class with a shabby family background, but she is kind, brave, hard-working, studious, ideal, and has goals. Despite her ill-fated fate, she remains perseverant and determined, and works hard for her ideals. This is an inspirational story about the grassroots, having fun in bitterness, taking risks in despair, and seeking in the ordinary. Even if it struggles, it is still glorious.
