No matter how the years go by and how many changes in life, I would like to have such a close friend by my side and in my heart.
I miss someone far away.
Ke Bizhou, who is immersed in creation, does not pay any attention to the interruptions from the outside world. In fact, with his immersed appearance, he can also find a quiet time to create. This may be to have a sense of ritual.
Quietness may be a necessary condition for Ke Bizhou to write novels, but it was precisely because of this condition that restricted him. At that time, it was extremely difficult for him to have a quiet time.
There is true love in the world
Although I have never personally experienced the years of being an educated youth, having lived in the countryside since I was a child, I have a deep understanding of the unforgettable journey that took place in China. No matter how hard the conditions are, no matter how tiring the world is, there is true love in the world, and I will always be moved!
good
They all say that the hard life in the past should be cherished now.
I saw it when I was a kid (๑><๑) Yummy Meow! , Simple years, simple life, everyone's feelings are very pure.
I feel like Du Jianchun is a little curious about things in this village. Is it because he is too bored that he took the initiative to bring up the topic with Ke Bizhou? Otherwise, it would be quite embarrassing to be alone in a room without saying anything.
