About This Novel
The period drama "Sesame Alley" produced by Xinli TV and Chengcheng Pictures, written by screenwriter Liu Yan, directed by Liu Jiacheng, starring He Bing, Wang Ou, and Liu Bei, was broadcast on Dragon TV on February 22, 2019, and Tencent Video was launched simultaneously. In 1947, Yan Zhensheng, the owner of a pickle shop in Qinfangju, Beijing, died because his brother was robbed by the national army when he was helping him buy soybeans in Hebei. Yan Zhensheng, who had adopted his uncle since childhood to fulfill his filial duty, wanted to marry another daughter-in-law for his biological father, Mr. Yu, in addition to his wife Lin Cuiqing, so as to continue the Yu family lineage. Mr. Yu fell in love with Mu Chunhua, who was dedicated to treating his father's illness. Although he married his wife out of filial piety, Yan Zhensheng and Mu Chunhua gradually fell in love with each other during their contact. In 1950, the new marriage law was promulgated, and Yan Zhensheng and Mu Chunhua divorced. In the decades that followed, Yan Zhensheng, Mu Chunhua, and Lin Cuiqing's family still supported each other and shared hardships.

Long awaited! !
I accidentally saw the preview of Sesame Hutong while watching TV, and I was very curious about what kind of book this Sesame Hutong was. But speaking of sesame seeds, I think of the sesame paste I ate today (laughing and crying). But this book seems to be addictive! Looking forward to the follow-up! Update soon~
excellent work
I saw the promotional video of the TV series and read the original text. Such a period drama is indeed very eye-catching today. As soon as I read the first chapter, I was attracted by the author's strong Beijing flavor. I hope that the subsequent plots will become more and more exciting.
A different Yan Zhensheng
The beginning of the novel introduces us to Yan Zhensheng's life experience. Although he is an adopted child, he is favored by his old employer. With his own efforts, he develops the pickle shop and becomes the most famous pickle shop in the city. But he was not proud because his pickle shop was famous. When Kong Laochi said that to make pickles, you must first make the sauce, he humbly accepted it. If such a person fails, who will succeed? Although he is in a powerful position, he is not proud.
renew!
The simplicity and kindness of the little people, they also have their own methods and logic to live their lives as ordinary people. They take responsibility for each other and walk together through thick and thin. I am looking forward to the TV series very much! Call me!
I like simple writing style
It's rare to see such down-to-earth writing. The language is simple, but it gives people a different feeling!
Sesame Hutong describes human life before liberation. All actors and actresses are excellent. It shows the liberated life of northerners in the past, especially the life of rich and poor. Praise!
Follow up and check in
When I went to my mother's house for dinner, my wife flipped through the photo album on the coffee table and asked me with a jealous look on her face: "Who is the girl holding your arm? She has good skin and figure." My sister said from the side: "What are you looking at? This is me." On the way home, my wife was carrying a big bag of fruits and snacks sent by my sister and said to me, "How is it? I'm pretty good at flattering you, right?"
Strong recommendation
You can watch the TV series. So far, the filming is really good, especially the old actors' dialogue skills. The Beijing accent is unparalleled. The voices are very comfortable to listen to. In costume dramas and bloody dramas with overflowing dubbing and filters, it really washes your ears and eyes. There is also the actor Liu Bei. I really think she is so beautiful. She has that kind of intellectual beauty.
There are many stories in Sijiucheng
I like this book. Each character has his own personality, and his life is like pickles, ups and downs.
Every character in the play is performed vividly and vividly, especially Chunhua.
