    This book made this almost 50-year-old man cry, can you believe it? It's so real and profound. If more people could see this book, it would definitely be hailed as a masterpiece. We can't let such a good book go to waste. I've pasted the author's words at the beginning, so you can judge for yourselves. (Before we begin, a few points to clarify: This is a realistic historical fiction set in the early days of China's reform and opening up. In 1989, the average annual income was around 1300 yuan, a time when a 21-inch television cost 2800 yuan, and even working for two years without spending a penny might not be enough to afford one. If you're a reader who enjoys overnight riches, windfalls, or fortunes of tens or hundreds of thousands of yuan, this isn't for you; please swipe away. If you're a reader who appreciates the realities of that era or wants to understand your parents' lives, then please savor this. I hope readers see the characters' lives, truly experiencing life, with each main character possessing a unique character arc, rather than blank, expressionless, and easily manipulated characters. This work is full of everyday life and emotional interaction. I want to present you with a realistic portrayal of life: a world with briquette stoves, old-fashioned bicycles, and communication relying mainly on shouting—a world where many older generations never truly escaped their birthplace, not a mindless wish-fulfillment story.) Of course, a work without exciting moments wouldn't be worth reading. This work will certainly have just as many exciting moments as other works, perhaps even more; it's just positioned differently, so please rest assured. For readers who agree with me, I will do my best not to disappoint you. Readers with opinions and suggestions are also welcome to interact with me in the comments section.
