Bloodline is a magical existence. When a life is born, it is so crucial as the only connection with this world.
But as time goes by, more relationships are involved, and the blood relationship becomes a bit complicated. Some people turn family relationships into a chain to tie up interests, while others are trapped in it and are at a loss what to do.
In an ordinary family in Zicheng, the eldest son Zhao Zicheng was so motivated that he changed his age and went to the mountains and countryside. However, a few years later, his father became seriously ill and he ran into trouble when he returned to the city.
After returning to the city, Zhao Zicheng was favored by his boss because of his handsome appearance and hard work, and he became his son-in-law.
Such an outstanding Zhao Zicheng was destined to have an unstable married life. His father-in-law was just a section chief. When the general manager's daughter set her sights on Zhao Zicheng and brought him staggering benefits, Zhao Zicheng was in a daze...
The eldest daughter of the Zhao family, Zhao Xiaomei, was entangled by the director's son. She was rescued by Deng Zhen, who was wearing work clothes, and the two established a romantic relationship.
Zhao Xiaomei grew up in a patriarchal family that favored boys over girls. She had been despised since she was a child. For her, getting married was an escape in a sense.
After getting married, Zhao Xiaomei guarded her own interests like a hedgehog, but was influenced by the carefree Deng Zhen, and the two lived a happy life.
Zhao Xiaofang, the youngest daughter of the Zhao family, is the mediocre one among the three siblings. She used to be proud of having outstanding brothers and sisters, but in the end, because of a slap in the face, Zhao Xiaofang discovered that blood relations are not what she thought...
Reader comments
Everyone's novels have the shadow of their original family to some extent. In the novels written by the author, there is always an absent father, a troubled and incompetent mother who strongly favors sons over daughters, an increasingly disappointing husband who cannot withstand the temptation of the colorful world and turns to betrayal and irresponsibility, a calculating second sister, and a dull and rigid younger sister. ... The author writes in a very detailed and objective way about the conflicts in families with many children and the impact of family education on the intimate relationship between men and women. The only regret is that the ending ends abruptly, making the reader feel as if they were eating a delicious dish, but when they were enjoying themselves, the waiter suddenly took the plate away. The regretful feeling makes people sad [crying]. Everyone has been following this novel and wanted to see the younger sister's growth in marriage and career, the older sister's protection of the family ties between brothers and sisters, and the elder brother's ability to regain his former warmth and responsibility in life, but it is a pity that it is gone.
I watched the author's Day Day After Day before. It was so good. It was ordinary but very exciting. Every character was full and the details were rigorous. The timing of many things happened was in line with the characteristics of the times. The development of the story was unexpected but reasonable. There were no abrupt plots. Watching the author's story felt like following the characters in the story for a long time. It felt a bit like watching the TV series "In the World". Great, keep it up author, look forward to more good works
A wonderful novel, surreal, it would be even better if it could be made into a TV series
This is the author's third novel in a row. It is about the lives of ordinary people like us. When seeing the characters in the book, it makes people feel picturesque and real. The writing is very real. To be honest, it is a pity to read it as a novel, but if it is a real person, the emotions are not like this. Looking back after this, it is the memories that are full of sadness and regret, as well as the helplessness and hesitation of life. I had to go, I had to persevere.
It's a good book, the story is exciting, the psychology of the characters is well written, and I can read it. [Praise]
A true and realistic book. Worth watching.
The author's writing is very realistic, which may be why not many people read it. Recommended to watch.
I have read four books by the author, all of which are realistic. I like this kind of books very much. What Zhao Zicheng does in this book is really uncomfortable and disgusting. As a son, brother, and husband, there is nothing comfortable about it. It is all hypocritical...
I love this author's style so much
People who came from that era have deep experience and feelings.
The plot of the story is attractive step by step, without being wordy or procrastinating. It is just a description of our ordinary work and life, which is much better than the overbearing CEO articles.
The passion in love is crazy, the length of marriage is long and short, and everything that has passed has become a kind memory.
The writing is touching and I can't put it down.
The only insight I have after reading this book is that favoring sons over daughters not only harms their daughters, but also harms the parents themselves.
The weaknesses of human nature are vividly reflected, the eldest son is selfish, the second son is sober, the third child is cowardly, and the helplessness of a family with many children.
Thank you for your hard work, author. I like your work very much. It is life-like and down-to-earth. The descriptions in each paragraph have a sense of picture. Isn't life like this?
Really believable and well written!
Character creation is particularly successful
Reveal the nature of human nature
Make people watch
A novel that I stayed up late to read. It's full of rhythm and I couldn't put it down.
