The writing style of this novel is delicate, and the emotional line between Chu Mingxi and Li Cheng is simple and heart-wrenching, making the daily life of daily necessities, rice, oil and salt full of poetry. The plot is not bloody but it is very immersive. The slow-burning gentleness is just to your liking. Close your eyes and watch!
It's been a long time since I read a novel with such concentration. This one is really good.
It's a very good novel. It shows the fireworks of the world in both stories and stories. Especially the name is nice and the writing is good. I support it.
The metaphor of "charcoal and fire" is so wonderful! The encounter between the heroine and the hero brings light to the ordinary life, and the late agreement becomes the foreshadowing of the long future. The details in the book that boil firewood, rice, oil and salt into poetry reveal the truest form of love.
It comes from Shuhuang, it's very good, I recommend it.
The novel is also so exquisitely written and very beautiful.
Love this book very much! The plot is vivid, twists and turns, climaxes one after another, very immersive and attractive!
