It's a beautiful and heartwarming story. Even as someone from another province, I thoroughly enjoyed it, haha. When I saw some dialect words, I automatically imagined myself speaking with a Cantonese accent – it was quite amusing. This kind of story doesn't need any of that revenge or slapping-the-face stuff. It's just so comfortable and simple.
It's really good! Compared to the ones from the 50s and 60s or 70s and 80s, I prefer the 90s ones. They feel more vibrant, people have more hope for the future, and their energy is stronger. People are full of vitality. I hope the author updates more often, and updates soon! This story is still in its infancy.
I really like this kind of simple and understated novel. There aren't any huge conflicts right from the start, the family relationships are well-developed, and there's no sudden wealth or overnight riches like buying a house and car. Amei earns her money little by little through hard work. I really love this kind of novel; it's just not finished yet, I want more! 😢😢🥺🥺
It looks pretty good; the content isn't exaggerated and is quite realistic. The only downside is that there's a lot of Cantonese (or rather, Cantonese dialect), which makes it a bit difficult for someone who doesn't speak Cantonese to read 😂 I often get stuck there.
The author's descriptions are sometimes very realistic, especially the part where the female protagonist still has expectations for her patriarchal parents and grandmother; the intimate scenes between the male and female protagonists make the male protagonist quite anxious, while the female protagonist, just turned 18, is like an innocent flower, but this only happens when she's with the male…
The female lead is the innocent and pure type, with a tranquil and beautiful aura, and currently works as a waitress in a tea restaurant; the male lead is the sunny and cheerful type, down-to-earth and steady, and currently works as a truck driver. Recommended background music: "Simple Love" This is what dating should be like!!! Like green apple juice! So innocent and cute!
The writing style seems good at first glance, but the synopsis mentions three babies. Wasn't it possible to have three children back then due to the one-child policy? Seeing that the author said it's almost finished, I'm writing this follow-up review. Overall, it's very good, quite heartwarming, and worth reading.
The writing is excellent, and the style is very pleasant to read. Keep up the good work, author!
It's really good! Highly recommended!!!
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
