About This Novel
When Shuisheng was twelve years old, there was no food in the village. Shuisheng's father found the last wild carrot in the field and cut it open for the family of four to eat. Shui Sheng's father said, "If we don't leave, the whole family will starve to death here." Shui Sheng's mother held Shui Sheng's hand, and Shui Sheng's father carried Shui Sheng's younger brother on his back and went to the city to join his uncle. Since then, the life and death of Shui Sheng's parents and younger brother have not been known. When he was twenty years old, Shui Sheng entered a chemical factory, and there were jade, root, and resurrection in his life... And then, he was the only one left. His hometown has long been in ruins, and he has to live. He has to find his way home for Yusheng and his father, and leave a way home for his resurrection... The novel starts from the era of state-owned factories and tells a vertical story of an individual's life for fifty years. It analyzes and shows the impact of the great era on ordinary people from a cross-section. In the book, Lu Nei accurately shows that in the changing background and environment of the times, the relationship between people changes, from mutual suspicion and informing to forgetting each other over the years, and also from step-by-step harmony to revenge after the awakening of personal consciousness. Although the bloodless grudges of these little people are hidden in life, they are the main memories of life. No one knows the final result. The ups and downs of life and death of ordinary people will only be lost in the era, and we can only live longer than the era in which we grew up.

Recommended by Ding Mo, I thought it was a romance... Although it is a bit tragic, after all, good people are rewarded, and it is realistic and emotional.
I don't know what to say to express my feelings. This was the first time I read a novel, the first time I was attracted and moved the most. . I saw compassion, and even more, I saw compassion. I feel cold, but more warm. I like the language in the book. The plain words carry tranquility, depth, sometimes joy, and sometimes endless sadness. I can imagine the scene when I read every sentence. I feel like I am in a phenol field, smelling the smell of phenol. I feel like I have returned to the 1960s and 1970s, seeing those embarrassing scenes and suffering people. I feel like I'm struggling too. The water life survived, but the mother died and the father and younger brother were missing. I feel like if something like this happened to me, I really don't know what would happen, but in that era, everyone wanted to live desperately. Shuisheng met a kind-hearted master, and the warmth between them taking care of each other made the suffering less painful. Their warmth in the harsh environment made everything warm. Shuisheng is kind to everyone, this is his own kindness and compassion. In such an era when food and clothing were insufficient, everyone was actually selfish. They would frame and destroy each other for a little subsidy. It is really not easy to have a person like Shuisheng. He respects his master, is kind to the people around him, and does his best to help whoever he can. Although he was always playing tricks and causing trouble everywhere, he still regarded him as one of his own, carefully advised and warned him, and even applied for subsidies for him until he was released from prison. He is affectionate and righteous. After marrying Yusheng, he loved her all his life. Although Yusheng was unable to have children, he never disliked her. He is the most compassionate person in the book, and of course his master, secretary, etc., Are those who think about others. If you live well, there will be a way out. "Shui Sheng didn't go home. He carried a drawing paper tube, got into a car, and went to many places. One day he went to the beach, it happened to be noon, and he thought, my name is Shui Sheng, but I have never seen the sea, so I just crossed over on the river. It was so useless. Chatting. He was sitting on the beach, and a dark cloud stopped in the sky again. He thought he would hear the sound of waves, but no, the sea was very quiet, and the clouds were also very quiet. Shuisheng said, Yu Sheng, I don't know where I will stop in this life.
mercy? mercy!
It is a very realistic novel. There are not so many ambitions and ups and downs in life. Many times it is just the immediate food and clothing and the bottom line of life. While alive, there are people who are opportunistic and self-interested like Su Xiaodong; there are people who plan for the people like an old secretary and are upright; there are people who see through the world like Yunsheng and are indifferent to everything; there are people who are smart and smart and independent and self-reliant like Susheng; but most of us are trapped by life and conscience like Shuisheng. After only a few decades of life, what is left behind? Passing by in a hurry, it is just a small hillock in the vicissitudes of life. A busy life is just to stay together at home. The hardships of life, what is right and what is wrong, many things, are they just born in the wrong time and become irredeemable, and life has become a sigh in the mouth of others?
Cry till I can't stop crying
As a person born in the 90s, I couldn't relate to that era. The writing style was so interesting and the black humor made people laugh and cry. When I saw my long-lost brother telling Shui Sheng how my father dug a hole in the wall and told my brother to escape, I burst into tears and couldn't stop. It was so sad. God has a way with people.
life is cruel
To move forward, you must have faith that will last until death. What to live for, why to be bound
Compassion is paper, kindness is ink
I wanted to write something, wanted to leave something behind, but suddenly I fell silent when I saw the end.
The style of the story is very obvious, and the sad plot can make readers recall the past.
I really like Lu Nei's books,,,
You can really cry at the end
I almost cried to death when I saw it
