About This Novel
The story begins in the mid-1980s in Lixiahe, a water town in northern Jiangsu. Zhao Jinlong, who failed the college entrance examination, had no intention of repeating his studies. He ran away from home with Shi Baogen, a young man from the same village, and came to the ancient city of Yangzhou to find a way out of life. Relying on their youth and freedom, they struggled, grew, and took root while performing their own love dramas. The bitterness of the sweat of the two young couples, the sweetness of love, the impermanence of fate and the joy of success are intertwined into a symphony of fate that is heartbreaking. Two pairs of young couples travel across the rivers and lakes, tasting the taste of life... The novel has a bright and charming Jiangnan style, a full story, ups and downs of the plot, and a series of accidents, which is dizzying, fascinating and heartbreaking. At the same time, the social portraits of the reform era also contain valuable realistic critical spirit. "Green Fruit" is a young man's growth history and love legend. It is also a faithful record of an era. It can be called another "Ordinary World".
