The Kind of Novel That Is Written Very Realistically and Reflects the Real Society
It's so brainless and ideal that I'm sick of it. I want to see something real.

This is a realistic book based on the workplace. There is no golden finger of a boss, no time travel and rebirth, only the bitterness, struggle and struggles of front-line workers. As well as the entanglements between career, marriage and family when people reach middle age. It is of practical significance and worth reading.
The story is close to life and truly reflects the helplessness of middle-aged people. Especially for women, they have a successful career but lack a family; they have a harmonious family but a failed career; they feel free after retirement, but they are tied down by their children and grandchildren. You should still be optimistic and positive when facing life. The author's writing is very good, thumbs up!
I like Xiaoxue. Although she is a failure in the world's eyes, I think she is very successful! After she was frustrated, she did not choose to give up on herself or be cynical. Instead, she worked hard and studied hard. Such a strong mental strength affected the people around her! Parents will not affect their health because of worry, husband can work well without any distractions, daughter starts to study hard and plan her life, and colleagues who are dawdling around her also start to make progress! Although Xiaoxue has not changed her current situation for the time being, she subtly affects the people around her like the sun. This is success, because only the spiritual influence can be passed down forever! The author has depth and this book is worth thinking about again and again [Like]
It's very interesting. I like reading novels of this style. It's close to life and very realistic. It is said that God rewards hard work. However, Huang Wenxue went through all kinds of hardships and got the certificate, but still couldn't find the ideal job. The final ending is sad and worth pondering! I hope the author can continue to write such good works! Support you! Looking forward to better works!
This book is very well written and true. The helplessness, grievances, and resentment are all things we frequently encounter in life and in the workplace. People can't help but be immersed in it, and experience the difficulty of life with the protagonists. There are no brainless plots, no kitschy jokes, no pretentious wealthy families, and no soliloquies. There are too few articles like this. I finally came across this article today and it is worth reading. Thanks to the author for bringing us such a true story, which comes from life and shows life. I like it very much and recommend it!
It is very real, and the sadness of women with no connections or background struggling in the workplace. Each woman has her own destiny. Huang Wenxue's unremitting efforts are very admirable. In the end, although going abroad to open up another horizon, it still feels like a helpless choice. In fact, I hope there will be a dark ending, but this is also true and beautiful!
The theme of the novel is clear, the writing is delicate, and the writing is smooth. The character skeleton design is clear, the personality is outstanding, and the character is flesh and blood. It reproduces the real banking ecology and reflects the helplessness of middle-aged people in the bank. Worth pondering and pondering. The author's portrayal of the heroine Huang Wenxue is very successful.
This is a particularly simple work, with no gorgeous words or ups and downs of the plot. It is just like telling the stories around us, slowly saying that no one's life is absolutely perfect, and everyone's experiences are different. The difficulty of life and inner struggles in middle age also allow everyone to face everything around them with a more mature attitude as they age, accepting, being kind, letting go, being easy-going, and cherishing.
Close to life, simple and true, there are no bells and whistles, no earth-shattering love, only the confusion and confusion of middle age, especially when the frustrated reality has been polished to the point of losing all its edges, and the embarrassing situation of middle-aged women trying to survive in the cracks is perfectly created. I feel like I am writing about myself. I like it very much. It feels full of positive energy, involves unknown areas, and increases knowledge. Thanks to the author for his hard work and writing in such detail and endlessly. In addition to living, life must have its own value! ! !
The story is very touching, touching on the sadness of every person in the workplace who works hard but has no results, especially the forbearance of middle-aged people! Cried countless times! Especially the moment after three years of unremitting efforts, I finally obtained the CPA certificate. Immediately burst into tears. The protagonist's spirit of continuous struggle and improvement moves and inspires every reader. It makes people unable to calm down for a long time after reading it. A good book worth recommending.
Huang Wenxue has gone through ups and downs in the workplace, but still continues to pursue self-improvement. In his forties, he even passed the CPA exam, which is known as the most difficult exam. It's a heartfelt, thought-provoking read, a good read, and a great book.
It's very real. I feel like I've seen the real working environment.
Read it on April 17, 2024. I really admire the protagonist Huang Wenxue's perseverance. There are no perfect people and no perfect things in this world. When you only look at the bright side of others, you also ignore their lost and sad side. When you are looking up to others, others are looking up to you! We live in the present, be ourselves, and don't leave any regrets!
The writing is smooth and the story is touching. The novel is not long, short and concise, and can be read in one sitting. The novel uses the realistic technique of line description to describe the workplace, marriage, and family life of several middle-aged women. It is of great practical significance. As a reader who is close to fifty years old, I feel deeply about it. People without certain life experience will not be able to get this point. The rating is distorted, and it is better than many books with a rating of nine or above. It would be great if it could be made into a TV series! I really like this novel!
A good book makes people upward. Live your life well by reading other people's stories. I applaud the three outstanding women in the book, especially Xiaoxue, who is hard-working, positive, optimistic and open-minded. I hope I can become such a person.
I finished reading this book in one go. Some of the plots in the book are as real as what happened to me. In this era when cool writing is popular, we need such a realistic work to allow today's young people to return to reality, re-recognize themselves and the world they live in, and plan their life goals well. It's not too late!
The writing is really good. Following Huang Wenxue, you can feel her depression, unwillingness, positivity, and hard work, looking for a breakthrough, and her character determines her destiny. Huang Wenxue and Huang Dongmei were both vice presidents, but their destinies were completely different. While reading, I was thinking about myself. Now I am nearly 40, I have no capital, and I want to find a breakthrough to prove my worth. I am confused and timid... This article is thought-provoking.
It resonates very much. I still like to watch this kind of realistic themes. I hope Huang Wenxue can live a wonderful life in Canada!
It's a beautiful book. I like it very much. You should also read it.
A very nice book that is true and objective about the difficulty of working in the workplace. It's very difficult to be around 50 years old and young. If you want to resign, you have to consider a lot of consequences. It is not easy to meet a boss who appreciates you in the workplace. Their words determine your career. Your career may come to an end if you meet someone who has a bad attitude. Why are those who only talk to please people become officials now, while those who do serious work are marginalized? Can't see through this reality.
A very good work that can make people cry and laugh along with the ups and downs of the protagonist's life, and it is full of empathy. It would be great if it could be polished and made into a TV series [laughing][laughing]
A work with concise language and smooth narrative! The protagonist and her two best friends are "little people", and their love, marriage, family, and work status are somewhat representative of the current times. The protagonist graduated from a well-known financial school, joined the party in school, entered a large state-owned bank as an outstanding college student, resigned to a local bank, and went from management to teller. His fate is regrettable! When you turn fifty, where do you want to go? The protagonist gave the answer, which was surprising! As a reader who has exceeded his destiny, I feel deeply! It's just a pity that the deeper discussion behind "little people and small evils" is not enough. Looking forward to the author's next work!
This novel reflects real life, and describes the problems faced by middle-aged people of the same age and in different fields through the daily lives of three good friends. Life itself is not easy, and everyone is different. Everyone is working hard to solve various problems while living. The heroine's independence and hard work are worth learning! Give the author a big thumbs up👍🏻
The writing is very real, and it also truly describes the helplessness of middle-aged people in today's society. The author's language is simple, the writing is smooth, there is no excessive exaggeration, and there is no bloody plot, which resonates with readers.
It is a very inspiring book. After seeing the situation of the characters in the book and the struggles of the people at the bottom in real life, I have to say that human beings are destined to be destined. However, in a person's life, happiness is obtained through the continuous struggle of the ordinary self. The meaning of life is to make yourself happy!
It is more realistic, and the description of the characters is more realistic. Think about it, there are real characters of the protagonists around you, but the difference is that they don't have the courage to resign. The three heroines represent the daily lives of three different women.
Good. Encourage people to make progress, pursue something, and live up to half a century. In fact, don't waste any time. Feel the same.
The writing is smooth, close to life, and describes the helplessness and bitterness of the workers.
The bitter, spicy, sour and sweet taste of middle-aged people is vividly reproduced in front of readers!
The writing is good, not muddled, and the story is very real, which is great👍🏻
