About This Novel
"Pingle County Chronicles" is the latest novel by the writer Yan Ge, and it is also the finale of his "Pingle Town Series". The book has a total of fourteen chapters. The story takes place on the East Street of Pingle Town. Fu Qihong, the deputy director of the County Chronicle Office who is about to retire, and his daughter-in-law Chen Diju are the two protagonists. They connect the growth and separation of a young man and woman and the ups and downs of small town life. This is a literary archive of Pingle Town written in the form of a virtual local chronicle, and it is also a postmodern "three words and two shots". Yan Ge made a conscious modern transformation of the three-character and two-part script novel, unfolding the narrative in the tone of a storyteller, and cleverly used various old-style poems and rhymes as well as Sichuan dialect, blending classical and modern senses, making the novel text rich in layers and space, showing a strong ability to reshape modern Chinese and contemporary stories.

At first Fu Danxin almost pissed me off, but then Fu Qihong really died.
The ending ended abruptly, a bit unfinished
