I just finished reading Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea and finished writing my review. I want to read this book again.
Xiangzi is really pitiful. It is really the corruption during the Republic of China. The rickshaw pullers are at the bottom. Mr. Lao She wrote the events of that chaotic period very vividly, which makes people feel very emotional after reading it😷😷
This book is very touching! It makes people not only daydream, but also makes people think deeply! It's amazing!
The signal in the car is bad
This is a drawback of traveling, but it's much better.
