Hey, I saw a similar family environment! Feel that heartache! Born a girl and struggled with her life, those years, those parents were so destructive!
I also have two daughters in my family, and I have also had a deep feeling about the preference for sons over daughters in rural areas since I was a child, but not as much as Li Chengye's family. But the ending is good. Li Jinyan and Wang Jiawei lived a happy life, and Li Yuyan also found the right man [laughs]
I regret not seeing Li Wenming's retribution
I hope that in the future society, men and women will be equal and there will be less patriarchal thinking.
I watched and listened to it without stopping! Great! The author's depiction of the psychology and performance of each character is delicate and vivid! Well worth reading and listening to!
It's very life-like and real. The two sisters work hard to live a good life, and they both meet the right partner and live a happy life.
People's prejudice is like a big mountain. Fortunately, we are in an era that is no longer so pedantic. Although we are born as girls, we can always be loved by our parents.
This book reflects the oppression and influence of some traditional family concepts on women. In the story, Li Jinyan's treatment in the family has changed due to the absence of her younger brother. This reminds me of the experiences of some relatives and friends around me. We need more works like this to draw attention to gender equality in society. At the same time, I also hope that the sisters in the book can find their own happy life and break the shackles of tradition. This book is very practical and worth reading.
I read it in one go, the plot is not draggy and it is very interesting
The story is short but full of pictures. A family represents a microcosm of a social phenomenon. The ending is not bad.
