赶马的老三 : 中短篇小说集(1994-2009)
It's a very good novel, full of rural flavor. Although Lao San has little education, he has a lot of fallacies. He makes the village chief so angry that he blows his beard and stares. But he is indeed a capable person. It would be great if he can continue to be the village secretary. After all, he can really solve problems. It's not easy to do grassroots work.
It is really difficult to do grassroots work. You must not go against the wishes of the higher-ups, but also do not offend the people below. This requires wisdom.
The stories in this book are so interesting, especially that Guohua, who is just like a classmate in our class, thinking about being clever all day long. But I think Lao San is more powerful. Although his method is a bit strange, he can always solve the problem. This reminds me of Ah Q in "The True Story of Ah Q", who also uses some special ways to deal with life. I like this kind of humorous novel. It is easy to read and I can learn a lot from it!
The image of an enthusiastic farmer is realistic and wise.
The language is witty and humorous, and it vividly depicts a village cadre with little education but a bright mind. The story of his battle of wits and courage with the village ruffians, shrews, profiteers and Taoist priests, and the township chief is so exciting. Good book, good book [like][like][like]
Interesting hahaha, so interesting.
The language is humorous. As the village party secretary, the "third child" is more like a patriarch and has done great things for his hometown. He is a kind-hearted person, and his favorable impression of 'Lao San' has skyrocketed.
