This book is good. The protagonist has a very difficult life, but she does not bow to fate. Like a blade of grass, she lives tenaciously and is not afraid of difficulties. She leads her younger brother, sister and her mentally challenged mother towards a better tomorrow.
Reading this article, it's easy to be moved by the emotions between these ordinary people. The female protagonist's family all belong to the lower class, but their vitality is incredibly moving and admirable. As for children's personalities, sometimes they may seem too mature, but some people may be born and forced to mature. When the pressure of survival is too great, even the youngest child will be automatically taught to be sensible by reality.
This book depicts the character Daya, who, starting from a disadvantaged family, defies fate, faces life with unwavering resilience, and never gives up! She uses life to find opportunities to continuously improve herself and makes many kindred spirits. From weakness to strength, she confidently and relentlessly strives to bring prosperity to her family, ultimately earning the blessings of the world.
This is my first time reviewing a book. Having read so many online novels, I've never thought of reviewing one. Although this book isn't finished yet, I recommend it to everyone. The female protagonist's indomitable spirit and optimistic attitude are something we can all learn from. Life isn't always smooth sailing; there will always be hardships. How to overcome adversity is how we learn the ways of survival…
In the early 1980s, prices weren't that high, and ordinary families couldn't afford to buy 30 bags of milk powder at once. People who stopped breastfeeding usually didn't give their children milk powder; they just ate solid food. Da Ya is really capable, exceeding the abilities of an 11-year-old. Growing melons also requires skills!
It's so tough, my little girl. But her daring and unruly temper was forced out of her; what girl doesn't want to be a good girl?
The story is vivid and interesting, and the description of life is realistic and touching! The protagonist, Daya, has a firm and resolute attitude towards life, and her young body shoulders the heavy responsibility of supporting her family, which is admirable!
This novel is very well written; it's the best I've ever heard.
Northern Jiangsu in the 1980s was really poor 😢 The author's writing is quite factual.
The content reveals the suffering of the poor in real life. The story of Daya, an eleven-year-old girl, struggling to support her family is truly heartbreaking and deserves praise. A good article for friends to read when they have time.
