The 1950s: Starting Out as an Apprentice

Who understands the value of literature in an era when aboriginal women without books, rebirth, space, or golden fingers could find a job by themselves, buy a house, and settle down? The heroine is smart and motivated. She is the most attractive heroine in period novels that I have read. She is full of vitality and will never admit defeat. She knows how to fight for herself, but she does not harm others viciously. The relationship line is logical, it's love at first sight, they both have two jobs, both have houses, and they are both children who are not favored by their families. It is a match made in heaven. A perfect match! The young couple must be happy!!

Let's talk about the advantages first: the author's writing is getting better and better, and it gets better and better later on. Some of the dialogues and wording are very playful and make people smile; the characters (whether good or bad) gradually become three-dimensional along with the plot, and they are not flat characters. The development of the characters' plot is in line with the development of the times. It has a sense of the times of the changes in the lives of small people under the torrent of the times. The overall feeling is that it is narrated. Disadvantages: The heroine has a "false awakening" feeling of being cold-faced and washing her underwear. There are many bad things about her native family that have been foreshadowed. Several brothers and sisters have their own evil intentions. No one cares about her, and even the others are vested interests. She is the only one who is really miserable. In the end, it seems that the heroine is living a good life, but as the author himself said: Baosong and Baolin were born to eat duck legs, and the heroine worked hard to become a worker to reach their starting line. The final ending of the article is: the heroine relied on her own efforts to take the night school entrance examination while working, took over many jobs that did not belong to her, and tried her best in life and career to finally live a good life. However, the vested interests of her family found that they could not step on the heroine, and if they restrained their attitude a little, even if they still did some unpleasant things, they would all have a happy personal ending. In this process, the heroine's transformation became that she became happy and naturally reconciled with the sufferings of the past, just for the final reunion of making dumplings hahahahahaha

It's very interesting. The author did not arrange a particularly bad husband for the stupid and filial sister, nor did he arrange a domestic violence husband for the beautiful but stupid and lazy sister. Nor did he arrange a particularly miserable old age for the vicious and ugly ex-sister-in-law. There is no kind of vicious and suffocating ending for the supporting actress who makes mistakes. I like this kind of arrangement very much, and I am waiting for the author to open a new book.

It's a very good book, and I feel like it could be made into a TV series, called Baolan. Baolan lives a very serious and hard-working life, moving up step by step, without any fanfare or golden fingers, only the mutual support of little sisters, and the appreciation and mutual encouragement between women. The author's character creation is very clear, his father is very calculating, and his mother does not love Baolan, but treats Baolan as a tool; the eldest brother is selfish, addicted to selling his sister, the most villainous character, a vested interest in the family; the eldest sister is loved by her mother, her husband is ugly but he is responsive to her requests, she is a fool, always makes wrong choices, and her too smooth life always makes her " The younger sister is beautiful, refined and self-interested, and her heart is as high as the sky, but her life is not as thin as paper. She is also the one who was sold, but she is flexible and a bit naive; the younger brother is cold and ruthless, just like the elder brother, but he is young and did not catch up with the good times. When he grew up, he encountered a sensitive period. He was not too bad, but with the reform and opening up, his true colors were exposed. Baolan's little sisters are also very good girls. Dingqing and Baolan helped each other before going out from the village to become workers. Baoju is also a serious and hard-working little cousin. Baoju's mother is a very good mother and treats Baolan well. Baolan's noble lady He helps Baolan a lot, and the beauty in the night school is also very charming. The author is really gentle towards women. Many women in the book have their own beauty. Even if the eldest sister and the younger sister have some shortcomings, the author does not give them particularly disgusting endings. They are even somewhat beautiful. Girls are the most beautiful creatures in the world, which made me feel warm.

Baolan's courage echoes Yu Hua's recent views: As long as you take the first step bravely, even if you start as a humble team, you can find your own path. If Baolan's career development line can be further refined in the future, the character image will be more three-dimensional and full. Most of the female characters in the book have happy endings. Compared with those works that claim to be "loving women" but often involve female characters in tragedies and suffer malicious portrayals, this sincerity is obvious. Although the writing is a little rushed in a few places, some characters are written and missing, and there are also a few detail flaws, but it is already very good for this first time writing. I sincerely give it a five-star review. I hope the author can find his own path like Baolan.

Really recommend this book. The reasons are as follows: 1. The story promotes positive energy. The heroine and her friends continue to work hard and make progress, and eventually become excellent themselves. 2. The plot advances smoothly and not abruptly. The heroine is not asked to follow and pile up bloody plots, but the growth of the heroine drives the plot forward. There are also some great character incidents, but they feel reasonable. 3. The protagonist Baolan and her friend Baoju Dingqing Niandi, as well as Baolan's brothers and sisters, relatives, friends and colleagues, each character is very distinct, neither stereotyped nor blessed by golden fingers, and they appear very real. Especially Baolan Niandi, they did not lose themselves due to family affection, nor did they become mean and evil because of unfair treatment by their parents. It's a good group of girls. 4. The language is humorous, the descriptions are vivid and interesting, and the pictures are strong. There is no straightforward narrative, nor is there any deliberate procrastination. Make readers feel relaxed and happy.

This book is very solidly written. It tells the story of how a local girl gradually broke away from her native family that favored sons over daughters and walked out of her own life independently. This type of subject matter is not new, but the author's characterization is adequate, and the characters and plot stand up. The protagonist's character is very distinct - he dares to think and work hard, and he doesn't act sloppily. Faced with the constraints of her family, she has the courage to break away, but she does not act impulsively, but knows how to solve problems in a mature way. This sobriety and resilience are her most attractive qualities. At present, the relationship line has been laid, and I hope that more attention will be paid to the development of the career line in the future. In terms of the ending, I look forward to breaking away from the traditional framework of "giving birth to a son in exchange for family acceptance" and allowing this story to truly return to the growth of women themselves.

Why is the score so low? It's such a beautiful piece of period writing! The heroine Baobao is particularly generous, smart and thoughtful. She is not angry at all, never feels aggrieved, and relies on her own hands to live a good life. She is perseverant and flowers bloom out of the mud, but she does not turn black. She is still a sunny, confident big woman. Moreover, the author knows bro very well. There is no female rivalry in this book, nor is there any scheming between sisters. It is clearly written that it is all the fault of the elder brother who has a vested interest, and he portrays bro's face very clearly. Anyone who reads this book will fall in love with Baolan. I think the personal charm of the heroine in Tomato can be ranked in the top ten. Unlike some novels that only have a good plot and the heroine is not lovable, Baolan is too charming. I've finished reading it. It's so beautiful. The writing is so comfortable, like a glass of boiled water, plain but profound.

Tied! Very beautiful!! I particularly like Baolan and Dingqing. The two girls are so good. There are so many girls who get along with each other warmly, and there are not so many top-notch ones. I am very happy that Baolan was promoted by a female leader. It is even happier that a female leader intends to move up. Baolan will definitely achieve something in the future. At present, the emotional line has appeared, and it feels very natural. The character of the male protagonist is very interesting. I look forward to its future development.

In 1955, the story about an aboriginal female protagonist without golden fingers entering the city to work as a worker was purely a career story. It was really well written. The heroine is generous, outgoing and motivated. From a rural girl with a literacy class diploma to a factory worker, she went to night school to become a statistician. There are no flat evil characters in the story. Most people are kind and have goals. The content is close to life and it is really well written.
