Reader comments
The language is humorous and witty. It talks about the so-called independent marriage in the village at that time and whether there are resources. It also shows that the director refused to write a letter of introduction to his nephew in order to let Ai Ai tell her. It also shows the obstacles encountered in order to emancipate the mind, free love and free marriage at that time.
The characters in this book are all very vivid. Ai Ai is really a filial child. In order to find money from Luohan, he sweeps the floor and sweeps the floor for his mother. Carpenter Zhang is also a very interesting person. Although he knows that Xiao Moth doesn't love him, he still follows him to his mother-in-law's house habitually. The characters in the story are so real, just like the people around us. I really like this down-to-earth feeling, which makes me understand the emotions in the book better.
This style is very Zhao Shuli, a bit like marrying Xiao Erhei [Thinking]
The little moth also took great pains to prevent her daughter from following her path again, and there was a foreshadowing in hiding Arhat's money.
This book is quite good to me. It is indeed a work by an old artist.
