I've been listening to novels for three years: supernatural mysteries, farming, legitimate daughters, clans, and cultivation. These days, everything I listen to feels a little bland. But life is boring and my heart feels empty, so I can only seek comfort in an imaginary world. Where can I find more good audiobooks?

I have never written a book review, nor can I. I can only say that this is a book worth reading. If you want to understand the living conditions of that era, come and take a look. It is very real, very close to life, and the writing is very good. Don't look at the ratings! If you want to read a good book, come in and read it!
This novel describes the rural life in the canal area near my hometown of Xuzhou before and after the liberation of New China. It is close to history and life, and allows us to understand more unknown things. As a person born in the 1970s, I am looking forward to reading such books.
This is a novel set during the Republic of China. It tells the story of a large family that has experienced changes, bandit wars, ups and downs, and twists and turns in the past hundred years from the late Qing Dynasty to the end of the 20th century. Although there is no thrilling scene at the beginning of the novel, it is still fascinating. The protagonist Yue Huizhong and her parents hurried on a horse-drawn carriage in late autumn, moving their family south to start a business. The descriptions in the book are relatively close to the real life at that time, reflecting the history and culture, development and changes, spirit and inheritance of a century-old family. The author's writing style is good, his ideas are novel, his language is fluent and popular, his descriptions are delicate and in place, and he has a sense of picture when reading. Worth reading and recommending, and giving it five stars! It's a good novel. I'll read it more if I have time during the holidays. Who knows, I'll spend most of the day reading it. It's worth reading!
The social background is real, and the inner feelings of the characters are also described in detail and with real feelings! It allows readers to experience the sadness and helplessness of the Chinese people struggling on the verge of life and death during the turbulent times as if they were there! It's a great book worth reading!
The author profoundly describes the extraordinary struggle story of the protagonist's family's ordinary life. The characters are vividly and delicately depicted, the story is thought-provoking, and the language is smooth and simple. The story panoramically shows the changes in life in Yishui countryside over a century. It is a highly literary social realistic biographical novel, and it is worth reading!
Detailed description of things and people at that time, very touching
It's very well written, about a family's changes over the past century.
A very good realistic work that shows the relationship between the development and changes of the times and personal destiny, allowing us to see the impact of good family tradition on a person's growth.
It took me four days to read the entire book! This kind of book is much more interesting to read than those mindless cool articles. At the same time, it may not be liked by young people, so the rating is not high. Literature and art come from life. Without profound accumulation of life, it is impossible to write touching books. Thanks to the author, you gave me a profound spiritual baptism!
It truly reflects the social status of the time and is a history of rural progress in the last century.
