This is a novel that touches the pain, shocks the soul, and inspires people to move forward. Mei Ziyi, who was born into a family of intellectuals in Shanghai and is the editor-in-chief of a provincial newspaper, had a successful career but troubled relationships - she was raped when she was a minor and "went to the mountains and countryside". The first man left her, the second man could not marry her, and something unexpected happened to the third man...
Reader comments
The intellectual youth who went to the mountains and countryside in that era brought new culture, new vitality, and new impact to the rural world and made their contribution. I admire them very much. They deserve respect and they were also the most lovable people of that era.
This book was a bit depressing at first, but it was Mei Ziyi's spirit that moved me. Her perseverance, hard work, and positive attitude towards life also inspired me.
Perhaps due to the needs of the work, Mei Ziyi is a "collection" of characters who have experienced all kinds of "bad luck" for all women. It is admirable, sympathetic, and sighing... Two lines: ① the fate of a group of educated youth; ② the country's changes in the 50 years from the educated youth going to the mountains and countryside to the reform and opening up. This work has the flavor of Lu Yao's "Life" and "The Ordinary World". Each character and story is lifelike and touching. The author is indeed sincere, thoughtful and practical. It's more meaningful than the "Overbearing President" type of works. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
A very good and inspirational book. The ending of the novel feels very sad. The death of such a strong, kind, beautiful and talented woman is really regrettable and heartbreaking! However, life is like this, and a person's fate is not dependent on human will. No one's life is smooth sailing. Cherish life, be kind to yourself and the people around you, and live a good life so that your life will not be in vain!
I like this novel very much. It describes the subtleties of people's relationships. In that era, people were conservative and faced with life everywhere. How many people dared to say "no" to life?
There is life and feelings. A piece of history was written. There is life, there are emotions, there is history.
Good books are fascinating. I hope the author can publish more good and positive books. Thank you to the author for letting me read a good work.

Close to life and reality, like it!
A very sincere novel
It's just a table of contents. There is no table of contents, only the chapters [crying]
Mei Ziyi's character is too good, but her fate is too bumpy. I just hope that the tumor is benign and she can have a happy old age.
At the end, the protagonist is so sad. Good people are not rewarded. It's sad to watch!
Close to life, as if returning to that era
In line with social reality, it can attract readers. Resonance
Mei Ziyi's strong and indomitable spirit is very touching, and her love entanglement is heartbreaking. The ending is successful with a happy ending.
I can learn from the spirit of those who endured all the hardships in the world in that era but continued to strive for self-improvement and get ahead in their careers.
In general, it's quite smooth, with no special ups and downs or unexpected suspense.
It is so well written, very inspiring, and very valuable. It is worth reading.
