Life on the River Bank

The novel is set in the Jianghan Plain, deeply linking the rise and fall of the Li family with the tides of the times such as war, land reform, and class struggle. The turbid waves of the Yangtze River, the bitter taste of the woodshed, and the slogans of the cooperatives all make people feel the sense of the times. It's quite interesting. Sister Li Si'an has gone from being a neglected "superfluous" to a forbearing and tenacious guardian. Li Siping has gone from being arrogant and striving for favor to transforming in life. Li Changhe's patriarchal obsession and regret in his later years. Each character has the complexity and reality of human nature, and there is no absolute good or bad. The jealousy and support between sisters, the forbearance and determination in love, the prejudice and redemption in family relationships are intertwined into a rough and delicate emotional network, especially the troubled love between Si'an and Chen Yanzhi, and the rancor between Siping and Sun Hongnian, which are both heartbreaking and touching. Keep reading. I was moved three times while reading this novel. The first time, the night when Li Si'an decided to go to Chen Yanzhi, the girl's thoughts were so delicately written that the readers shed tears for this true feeling. The second time was when Li Changhe was about to die, he apologized to Li Sian, and Li Sian said, my hatred for so many years is nothing after you are dead. The third time was when Zhang Lan said to Zhao Mingyuan who betrayed him before he died, I have never regretted loving you in my life. It's really heart-wrenching, the writing style is delicate and tender, it has a strong sense of age, the characters are well written, and the author is very attentive.

All book friends are welcome to read and comment on the book. The new book is still slow in popularity, and the story is about a short-lived family. The prototype is my grandmother, who lived in rural China for half a century. She lived a life full of fear, walking on thin ice... She was constantly suffering, but she also pursued happiness. If you like it, read it. [Love] Hehe, the serialization has reached 500,000 words, which is considered a small breakthrough for me. I can give myself a thumbs up, okay? [Blowing a kiss] My little wish is: to increase my rating and stabilize my mentality. [Love]

The novel uses the heavy age as its background and outlines a vivid portrait of rural groups. From local folk customs to human fireworks, from the changes of the times to the ups and downs of fate, they are all written in a real and moving way. In the book, women slowly grow up through suffering and perseverance, and live out their strength in ordinary years. It has the depth of documentary of the times and the softness of human warmth. Yes, five-star praise. It is not only a memory of the times, but also a hymn to the land and women. It allows people to better understand the preciousness of ordinary life while looking back at the past. [Love]

What happened to my sister Li Siping actually made people feel a little distressed. , Making sauce, selling sauce, and doing business are very visual. Women are very capable of surviving in troubled times. Fortunately, Sun Hongnian is a good lover.

This chronicle has been written into people's hearts. In the old days of the Jianghan Plain, the entanglements, loves, hates, angers, and obsessions of three generations were like those real years. Li Sian endured the pain for half his life, his father's belated regret, the pull between the sisters, the pain and warmth hidden in the family's trivial matters, the secrets and knots buried deep in the years were slowly revealed over time. After reading it, I was left with only heartache and relief. The story is gentle and makes me cry... When my sister Li Siping died, I really couldn't stop crying. There is no greater love in Chinese family relationships than this. The opposite of hate is love, and the opposite of love is hate... There are so many women in the story. I don't know why I like Li Sian's daughter-in-law Zhang Yunfang the most. She is generous and independent, dares to love and hate, and Zhang Yunfang's third brother makes me feel bad. People of that era really value family affection. [Cry][cry]

I've caught up to Chapter 21, and I've recently become obsessed with this type of novel full of rural flavor! The environment is carefully laid out, and the psychological portrayal of the characters is even more poignant, making it a super immersive read! Especially the image of the Yangtze River not only hides the ups and downs of destiny, but also has a lens-like sense of picture, as if you are watching an immersive movie. This kind of text with a sense of documentary and rich background is so appetizing, I must continue to read it! [Adoration][Adoration] The introduction says that Li Si'an is based on the author's grandmother. Looking at the story of that era, it is a mixture of sadness and joy, which is quite enjoyable. Looking from the back to the front, I just feel that things are different and people are different, and big dreams are in vain. The meticulous novel hides a lot of foreshadowing, and there are also many reversals. I follow the author's rhythm step by step, and I just feel a sigh of relief... It can be called a plain love history, with endless entanglements of love, hate, madness and resentment... [Crying] A good niche article!

Yes, it is a story about the generation that can endure the most hardships, a pair of sisters, Si'an is poor and tolerant, Siping is arrogant and domineering, there is also a father who has fallen into decline in the family, and a mother who sacrifices the suffering of the times. The writing is smooth and true, and it is worth reading. It gets more and more exciting from now on! Of the three generations, the story of the second generation is the most exciting. I just read about the appearance of the second heroine Chen Nian... I feel like it will be a long novel!

As a period novel, it is very qualified. The characters are flesh and blood and responsible. Watching them live their lives is more addictive than watching dramas. I feel that after watching it, I can forgive a little bit of the older generation and a little bit of the original family. It turns out that they lived such a hard life. Tears.

"Life on the River Bank" is a period novel that is slow-burning and becomes more and more profound the more you read it. The writing is calm and the characters are vivid and real. Li Si'an's forbearance and sobriety, Sun Nian'an's infatuation and despair, Lu Jingchuan's spirit and decline, everyone is imperfect, but they have flesh and blood. This is not a book that makes people happy to read it, but it is a book that will be remembered for a long time after reading it and will make people feel distressed when thinking about it. The river bank is vast, life seems like a dream, and every life is worthy of being seen seriously. What impresses me most is that it does not force perfection. For Sun Nian'an and Lu Jingchuan, no need to see each other again, no need to get entangled, and separation is the best salvation.

Loving someone is so inexplicable, the author understands it very well

In that era, people were very good at naming, Siping, Si'an, Sikan

Chen Xiaohong lives frugally to support her family, but she feels sad working in a foreign land. Apart from being handsome, Jiang Lei from Zhejiang has no other uses. If divorce had already occurred in contemporary society, women of that era would have tolerated it.

Seeing the conversation between Li Changhe and Li Sian before his death, I burst into tears

After reading the first part, I really hate having such a sister. After reading the second part, I feel really happy to have such a sister.

Li Siping and Li Si'an did not become wealthy when they were old, but still lived an ordinary life. This is logical. People in that era were miserable. How could there be so much good luck? The writing is true, so I give it a good review.

The little people in the changing times can live a steady life in the ups and downs, and feel at ease.

During Zhang Lan's deathbed, silence is better than sound, and it has great staying power.

The group portraits are well written and the characters are all distinct.

The character Sun Hongnian is well written. He has a clear-minded nature as a farmer, just like the fathers in the village who are not good at words. Thumbs up.

The author is very good at writing about female psychology, and the writing is very detailed and detailed.

Every character looks like someone from an old TV series, with regional characteristics, good writing, and infinitely beautiful plain scenery.

It has a great sense of the times and my parents are short-lived. The more I read, the more I like it.

I clicked here to read it in the book wasteland. It really has a strong rural flavor and I have read too many cool articles. It would be nice to look at something delicate.

It has the fast pace of online writing, but also the delicacy of traditional literature. Especially the description of the environment is very good. I haven't seen this style of writing for a long time. I like it.

The characterization is very touching, and ordinary days are full of deep feelings.

The wind on the river embankment, the grass on the field ridges, and the Jianghan Plain in the book are full of rural flavor, friendly and real. Reading it makes me feel like I have returned to the village.

This is my favorite period novel, please give it a good review.

It's not a good read, but the pace is okay, it doesn't drag, and you can read it.

The folk customs are written tastefully and the language is fluent. It is worth reading.

In the changing times, the perseverance of small people is moving. I recommend it.
