A realistic farming novel from the late 1990s, featuring a strong and independent female protagonist who is childhood sweethearts with the male protagonist. Their personalities complement each other, and they support one another. It depicts a unique love story belonging to the early 20th century and to ordinary people in a mountain village. My darlings, please give me your guidance 😘😘
Super good!!! The plot is clear and well-structured, the female lead is straightforward and unpretentious, she doesn't mince words or act coy, and she doesn't hold back when she sees injustice! Especially the lines she speaks—it's so satisfying to watch 🥰 (Because I'm someone who always has to think before I speak, I'm incredibly envious of people who can talk so fluently). Highly recommended! 🤤🤤🤤
I stumbled upon this post; the plot is fast-paced, the characters are vividly portrayed, and An Yuling is independent, clear-headed, and strong-willed. Shao Ping'an seems like a rather ideal male character, rare in reality. I'm looking forward to seeing Xiao Wu's journey to wealth!
This book is very realistic, depicting the ordinary lives of people in rural Shaanxi. Xiao Wu is hardworking, and so is her husband. Although they don't have an extraordinary life, they bring changes to their lives and their families' lives through their own hard work. It doesn't focus on impressive financial figures, but it feels very real.
I think it's very well written and down-to-earth. Why is the rating so low when there's no plot armor? Many comments ask why the protagonist goes back to their hometown. It's not easy to succeed in other places, and staying in a big city is even harder, especially since the main characters are young people in their early twenties who have already worked very hard.
The lives of ordinary people: the hardships and helplessness of youth, the arduous journey of adolescence, the attachments and reconciliations of middle age, the crossroads of life, the steadfastness after confusion, and the unwavering commitment to family and love—all are realistically moving.
1. It's very well written and realistic, just like our real rural life. There aren't any exaggerated, wish-fulfillment-style female protagonist revenge plots, but it really touches the heart. It's a very good period novel. 2. One thing I felt was that the male and female leads hadn't broadened their horizons.
This author is truly talented; the more you read, the more addictive it becomes! It's a captivating and engaging read! A rare find these days, the writing is grounded in life and experience—truly excellent 👍, far superior to those fantastical works!
The daily life of an ordinary family is very ordinary, but very real. The author's writing skills are quite good. They are all people who have lived through this era, and many scenes are relatable. It is not sentimental. It is about the daily life of ordinary people who work hard to live a good life. Five-star recommendation.
A very realistic period drama, without any cheat codes! Life is never smooth sailing; we always grow through hardship! Xiao Wu is both smart and strong-willed, but unfortunately, he succumbs to reality while still considering his future! Ping An is honest, upright, and responsible; the young couple are focused on living a good life, and their future will only get better!
