The Locust Tree of Home: She’d Rather Jump Into the River Than Marry Him

This book is very wonderfully written and has a very profound imprint of the times. It also reflects that under the changes of the times, the strict rural patriarchal culture in the past has gradually disintegrated under the background of the times. Things that were unimaginable in the past, the past patriarchal thoughts, some policies that discriminated against women, and the past constant struggles to obtain some legitimate and equal rights are nothing now. The author shows us the process through wonderful writing and delicate writing, which is very worth reading.

"Locust Tree in My Hometown" uses the old locust tree as a local image, and uses the tragic story of a young girl named Sophora ya to refuse marriage and throw herself into a river to expose the shackles of arranged marriages on lower-class women in the old days. The locust tree is a symbol of hometown and the embodiment of the heroine's stubborn personality. The locust tree is gentle, but her body is trapped in ethics and power. The setting of resisting marriage with death is very impactful, and it vividly describes the helplessness of rural women in the old days. It has a strong sense of rural atmosphere, using a field of locust flowers to reflect the desolation of fate, and using the tragedy of a small person to reflect the ills of the times. The writing style is simple and heartfelt, and the depiction of rural tragedy is delicate and moving.

This period novel written by Wei Shuidong is particularly poignant. The helplessness and struggle of a generation are hidden under the old locust tree. The heroine is unwilling to accept an arranged marriage and refuses to compromise even if she is forced to jump into a river. This tenacity against fate is vividly portrayed. The story is rooted in the countryside, and the friendship between neighbors and the secular shackles of the old era are written realistically and delicately, without any suspended plot. On the one hand, there is the stubborn pressure of the clan elders, and on the other hand, there is the girl's obsession with pursuing an independent life. The conflict is very immersive. As an image throughout the entire text, the old locust tree witnesses the heroine's grievances, resistance and growth, and the atmosphere is full. The author's writing style is simple and moving, and he eloquently talks about the repression and awakening of women in the old era, which makes me feel sad after reading it. The plot has a smooth rhythm and the characters are vivid and three-dimensional. It has the rich pyrotechnics of period literature and the passion of women to break free. It is worth reading slowly. Add to favorites and read slowly. The author is working hard to update, and I look forward to the follow-up! [Like][Like][Like]

Under the old locust trees in the Tuihe Plain, a heart-stirring scroll of rural tragedy unfolds! Taking Zhou Huaiyuan's disillusionment with love as the main line, the five women grew up together and withered one by one under the shackles of feudal clans and patriarchy. Their fate was so miserable that it was suffocating. Under the pseudo-prosperity of the clan, there is a cruel suppression of the lower class and those with different surnames. The ending makes people both sad and happy, and expresses the pain of the times. The writing is rich and the characters are vivid. It will make you feel depressed for a long time after reading it. It is a masterpiece that faces suffering and asks questions about human nature! "Locust Trees in Hometown" is another local literature novel by the author after "Red Sheep's Hoof". It is known as the modern version of "Dream of Red Mansions". It takes the characters as the main line and the local sentiment and nostalgia as the emotional sustenance. The feelings are sincere, the story is twists and turns, and it is full of tension. Reading it makes people worry, let people cherish, and let people think about it. What has the times left us? It is the driving force for the advancement of history!

This movie realistically depicts the feudal ideology that favors sons over daughters and the suppression of the lower class by clans. It is a microcosm of an era. The author is very attentive and creates each character with flesh and blood. The story has ups and downs and is fascinating. You will continue to follow it in the future.

Super pretty. The plot of the story has ups and downs, and the characters are full and three-dimensional. From leaving home to returning to happiness, only they and the people who read the story know about the difficulties and obstacles along the way. But the story is over, and people's hearts have begun to settle and realize! It's like a fine wine, leaving people with endless aftertaste!

The writing is very good. Other book friends recommended it to read it. The characters and story are very attractive.

I read it for an hour, not long, but enough to be struck by the words in the book. I read about an old clock made of a horse-drawn carriage wheel. It struck twice for work and three times for work. The sound passed through the mist, calling the laborers to rush up the field ridge. This is not ringing a bell; it is beating the pulse of an era. The author is not writing about the country, but the soul of the country. The villages described by the author are alive. Literary literacy cannot be hidden from you. Although the time is short, I have gained a lot. Will continue to follow up. Already reviewed!

This is a great book! Local literature, things about hometown, people in hometown, and feelings about hometown are all in the lingering nostalgia. This is a tragedy and a comedy. The key is that they broke free from the old imprisonment and lived an ideal life. Good book, read it many times
