County-town romance in the 1990s / ten-year age gap / older man / coming-of-age / pseudo-incest
Ying Bu Chen waited ten years for him.
When he finally caught him again, he tried everything, from hanging himself to kneeling, to make him turn gay.
Zhou Tong slapped him hard. "I'd rather die than date a beast like you."
Ying Bu Chen thought the slap wasn't as satisfying as yesterday's. Besides, don't beasts date people too?
In the end, Ying Bu Chen did make him fall for him.
Ying Bu Chen: Sleepy.
Zhou Tong: Come to bed, then. Don't pull the blanket off, I've got it nice and warm. Come here, I'll hold you while you sleep. Want me to tell you a story? Haha, this one's so funny. Hey, why'd you fall asleep? How have you been all these years? How come your hair's so soft? It's even softer than the ones I raised. Poor thing, look how thin you've gotten. I'll make braised pork tomorrow. You'd be happy if I put a ring on this hand. Mwah, mwah, good night, my darling~
The early part of this story has a very heavy coming-of-age arc full of hardship. Please read with care.

I read Bad Water first, and then read this article. I felt that he was a very underestimated author. If the author of these two articles had better traffic, he might have been praised to the sky. Every time I see no comments at the end, I wonder why this is the case. I'm a sucker for reading articles, and I don't like some of the popular writers, but these two are really good. I read a lot of reviews saying that the writing is immature, but I don't think so. When it comes to historical fiction, it is already my top choice. It is very real and touching, the characters are very successful, the rhythm of the article is very good, the language is very expressive, the plot is very tense, and the logic is very good. Nini, you are really talented and talented. Bad Water is also outstanding, the characters are very full, the psychological activities and plot are very exciting, and the relationship and plot are well balanced. Nini, your language has your own style. Your descriptions and metaphors really understand people's hearts. They are real but not clichéd, rich but not childish, and emotional but not pretentious. You deserve to be seen by everyone.
It's a pity that there are no extras. DaDa only has two articles. They are both wonderful. I look forward to DaDa writing new ones. I especially love reading them. I always like DaDa's articles. They are full of emotions and the descriptions are delicate. The scenes and times are real and vivid. Thank you Nini for bringing us the wonderful things.
After reading it, what flashed through my mind repeatedly was the reality, as if there really was such a group of people in a small county in the 1990s. The language habits, word usage, and social customs throughout the article are all very familiar and familiar to me as a northerner. Some of the words used are quite authentic, and I had to think about it for a while before realizing the meaning. There are a few words that left a deep impression on me, including Master Huang's "Money, paper, wine, water, all should be taken lightly." There is also Xiaoying asking Brother Tong if he thinks his jealous look is dark. Brother Tong said, "You can't ask the wind to not carry sand." And a sentence that I personally feel very strongly about is that a mountain is a sea of trees. Brother Tong is really a very charismatic person, even now and in reality. When Xiaoying and I first arrived in Yihua, we were hard-spoken and soft-hearted. He will also be deceived by the couple in the salon, deceived into working for free, deceived into doing the hardest and most difficult work, deceived into using his childhood sweetheart as the rope that binds him. Later, he gradually lost his youthfulness and became sophisticated but unsophisticated. He always remembered that Xiao Ying was still waiting for him at home. When he was in his prime, he still remembered all the people who had helped him. He always felt that repaying those people was insignificant. When someone asks him to do something, he doesn't make things difficult for others. This is really rare. Take care of Xiao Ying carefully and properly, and think about Xiao Ying's subtle feelings about having a picnic; Xiao Ying said he had never done it, and Brother Tong believed it and behaved in front of the other parent; there are also some details and attitudes that many parents today find difficult to achieve. When Xiaoying got angry and lost everything, Brother Tong did not evade responsibility, but just shouldered everything. In the end, it was at his own expense, so that those close to him would not be "specially cared for", and so that everyone would not have to be burdened by him. He will also remember everyone's kindness and kindness. He remembers the brothers who saved Xiao Ying's life with him, remembers Mr. Wang Nai, remembers Master Huang, remembers Teacher Tong's mother's life-saving money many years ago. Even the small glasses that were cowardly and timid at the time had a low sense of existence. In his heart, they were not good friends with him because of Fengzi. He can also count the many advantages of small glasses. Xiaoying spent a large part of his life waiting for Brother Tong, waiting for him to make money, waiting for him to come home, and waiting for him to be released from prison. Xiao Ying hated himself for ruining Brother Tong, and hated that he was not young and promising enough, so he was always in a hurry, rushing to make money and save money, and rushing to catch up with Brother Tong, but Brother Tong hoped that every step Xiao Ying took would be for Xiao Ying himself. The letter from Xiaoying's parent-teacher meeting, thanking Brother Tong for giving him life, is both a fact and a confession to Brother Tong. The reality of Xiao Ying's emotions, thoughts and mentality made me feel like I had been robbed. It was not about experience, but purely about my thoughts. Many of Xiao Ying's displayed mentality were portrayed quite realistically. When Xiao Ying has not grown up, the thoughts described are those that only children can have, brave and innocent. The same is true later, the similarity resonates, and you feel the same. When I saw a certain time, I briefly wondered whether there would be SARS, but the more I looked at it, the more I forgot about it like Li Nihao, and the sense of reality was also deeply stabbed. The jealous king Xiaoying, Xiaoying who was only stingy with him, should now be a highly skilled medical expert, and he has been with Brother Tong through thick and thin for a long time. Actually I didn't say much, but I think you'll know after reading it. When I was typing this paragraph, I heard "White Crane and Dream" by He Tu. There are a few lines in the lyrics that are very suitable, so I borrowed them as the ending. The years passed quietly, the twists and turns of the palm lines. They took time to shake off the dust on their clothes.
I have been reading this article one after another this week. First of all, I am really grateful to the author. Not only does he save the full text, but he can update one or two chapters every day, and the copywriting is very attractive (I was a little discouraged at first because of the number of collections, but this copywriting stepped on my point and gave me the opportunity to discover a great article). I personally like this kind of market style very much (but I feel like this kind of article has disappeared on JJ). The ups and downs of the plot and the smoothness of the language in this article are really unspeakable (it feels like the story is happening in front of my eyes, very vivid), and the abstraction has been completely integrated into the lives of the two people. I can't tell when it is serious and when it is a joke. It is really hilarious. Then there is enough information in each chapter. It may seem like trivial things, but it also advances the plot little by little. In fact, I didn't dare to read the last few chapters. Seeing that everything was developing for the better, I was afraid that some villain would ruin their lives. Although it did happen, they would definitely be able to be together better after going through all this (leave me to do the illegal things, and I will also give Li Nihao a knife). Come on, author, the article you wrote is really great. I believe that the public's vision is sharp. (The vocabulary is really lacking, some personal thoughts after reading)
Boss, I feel like my schedule is completely opposite to yours. Hahahahaha. I hope you will be happy. This article is the most up-to-date and up-to-date article I have ever read. I really like it. Why did it end like this? But it doesn't matter. Nini, you may see me appearing in your other novels after a while. (Chew, chew, chew)
Fortunately, everything is fine, otherwise I would have rushed to fight you to the death. Madam [Spread flowers][Spread flowers][Spread flowers] Really good, really good. Hurry up and write your new article, I want to read it
Sprinkle flowers sprinkle flowers [spread flowers][spread flowers]~ OK, after the pinning ceremony, here are the words that come to my mind without drafting [Sunglasses]—— This is the first time I read a novel set in this time period. The characters of Brother Tong and Xiaochen are also quite new to me. Sometimes I feel like I'm watching a movie with a sense of the times, and it's still handheld, which is quite emotional. There were times when I would cover myself in bed late at night, turn on the lamp, read serious literature, and then shed tears. There was a bit of overlap in feelings. Brother Tong, Xiaochen, and the Wangwang couple, Uncle Fengzi, Uncle Little Glasses, Grandma Wang, Grandpa Tong, were actually the mother who was looking for her daughter in the beginning. Rather than looking, perhaps it is more appropriate to stare at them. Looking at them from a God's perspective, one would think that humans are made of flesh and blood, think of the most comforting spirit, and wish them well. There will be unbearability and sadness, and there will also be a feeling of sadness similar to covering up a quilt that has been exposed during the day on a winter night. This is the first time that an author just listens to my comments and comments. It's the same sentence. It's amazing and very happy. Will remember it for a long time. The battle line is very long, but in fact it is only a few months. In a blink of an eye, the end of the year is here. Farewell and looking forward to our next trip together.
Really pretty!!!!!!!! In fact, I should have finished watching it this afternoon, so I held back the last bit and watched it in the evening. In fact, life has always been relatively smooth, so I have always been obsessed with struggling in hardships. There are two days left for the postgraduate entrance exam. I have actually been preparing for it for a long time, but I have been struggling with whether I should take the exam and whether I want to study or not. I am often anxious as if it is a huge decision. But recently I have figured it out and decided to face it with a normal heart. If I fail the exam, I will go to work. Hahaha, I came across this article somehow. Growth is not about making a so-called right choice at the fork in life, but being able to decide for yourself, act on your own, and take responsibility for yourself. This is enough. Thank you Nini for bringing us such wonderful Xiaozhou and Xiaochen 😭 😭 😭
I always felt that Brother Qiang had Fengzi in his heart, otherwise Fengzi wouldn't have clamored to follow his girlfriend when he first met her, and wouldn't have left without saying a word after Fengzi was gone.
The first thing I looked at was Bad Water, which I thought was particularly good. After reading this article, I like it even more. It's been a long time since I've read and understood the entire article line by line and word by word so seriously. Be happy and cry along with it. I really feel that the author is very careful in shaping the characters. Their suffering is real, and it is not a sudden attempt to torture the protagonist or push the plot to create conflicts. These are real life situations. But suffering cannot defeat them, but shapes them. In suffering, in addition to the various aspects of life, we also see love and righteousness. Wind and rain will not blow down the rose, but will make it grow thorns. The delicate writing, observations and insights on life gave me a glimpse of the author. Thanks for bringing these stories and these people, I believe and wish the lovely Nini will get better and better.
