Two upcoming stories: Springtime for the Firewood Girl and The First Thing I Did After Making It Ashore [The 1970s]
Jiang Aihua was reborn, back in the year she turned eighteen.
Her youngest sister was only one. Her father could barely hold his head up in the village after having three daughters in a row. Her mother was timid and hardly dared to leave the house. Her second-youngest sister was in middle school and right in the middle of her rebellious phase... This was the very beginning of her family’s collapse.
She had been dealt a terrible hand from the start, but she thought it was just right.
Because at this point, she hadn’t taken in a husband, her mother hadn’t sought another man to father a child, her father hadn’t tried to take his own life, her second sister hadn’t started dating too young, and her youngest sister hadn’t been given away...
There was still time to put everything right.
I’ll take back, one by one, everything they took from me and everything they owe me.
Luo Chuan had never met a woman so hot-tempered.
The first time he saw her, she dumped a whole basin of water on the great-uncle who was always cursing her.
The second time, she led the village chief’s daughter-in-law into the mountains in the middle of the night to hide from hooligans.
The third time, she grabbed a knife and chased after the family that had taken her little sister, shouting that they were kidnappers...
Luo Chuan shook his head. Who’d dare marry such a fierce woman?
Well, he wouldn’t mind. He could take a beating~
Countdown to publication: I’m hoping to get into the weekend feature, so I applied to publish today. I don’t know if it’ll go through today. If not, the story may launch on March 7. There’ll be three updates on launch day, and at least 3,000 words a day afterward, with occasional 6,000-word updates. I absolutely won’t abandon the story, so please don’t worry, my dear readers who’ve been asking.
Springtime for the Firewood Girl
*While chasing down a vicious space wolf, Li Xiaoxiao accidentally entered a time tunnel and transmigrated to the Great Wu Dynasty, thirty thousand years in the past, where she became a firewood girl in the county magistrate’s household. Overjoyed, Li Xiaoxiao thought she could finally leave the fighting behind and live a carefree life, eating her fill and waiting for death. But then she discovered, to her dismay, that her employers seemed to be getting more and more miserable by the day.
Magistrate Meng had a pile of mistakes on his record. His son, Meng Guanqi, spent every day with his nose in books, all show and no substance. The young lady’s maid had run off with the family’s money and the coachman. And even under these circumstances, Madam Liu and Concubine Luo still found time to fight every day...
Li Xiaoxiao sighed as she watched the rice jar grow emptier by the day. Life here didn’t seem much better than the apocalypse.
*Meng Guanqi was demoted along with his father to Mi County. Arrogant and ambitious, he devoted himself to passing the imperial examinations and clearing his father’s name, never noticing how his parents were growing thinner and the meals on the table were getting meager. It wasn’t until the household’s firewood girl knocked him flat with a bamboo staff that he finally came to his senses.
Compared with the distant prospect of a bright future, staying alive in this poor, backward place seemed far more urgent.
He put down his books, rolled up his trousers, and set aside his pride to start from scratch, with both feet on the ground.
Unexpectedly, his fortunes turned around. One day, he rose swiftly through the ranks, his father’s name was cleared, and he became the youngest and most promising Secretariat Drafter in the imperial court. At last, his family could leave Mi County and return to the capital. The household’s newly hired servants ran around in delight, spreading the news. But the firewood girl bluntly said she didn’t want to leave and only wanted her indenture returned.
Meng Guanqi narrowed his eyes dangerously. She’d made his heart bloom like spring flowers and now she thought she could run away? No chance!
The First Thing I Did After Making It Ashore [The 1970s]
The first thing you do after making it ashore is cut ties with the one you love.
It was a modern internet saying, but Tu Jiaojiao thought it perfectly described her and her husband, Yan Shu.
Yan Shu was an educated youth sent to her village in 1972. At the time, the countryside was in turmoil, and many villagers had starved to death. Tu Jiaojiao saved Yan Shu without telling her family, using the precious food she had secretly stashed away.
He owed her his life, so he had to repay her. When Yan Shu asked what she wanted, Tu Jiaojiao answered without hesitation, “Marry me. If you ever get the chance to return to the city, remember to take me with you.”
Yan Shu’s temples throbbed, but the food was in her hands, so he had no choice but to give in.
They married in a hurry. Their wedding home was the cowshed the production team had assigned to Yan Shu, and Tu Jiaojiao didn’t mind at all.
After five years of marriage, Tu Jiaojiao still hadn’t had a child, and she was increasingly anxious. Then Yan Shu’s life took a turn: the college entrance examinations were reinstated.
Yan Shu devoted himself to studying and dumped all the housework on Tu Jiaojiao. He solemnly promised that if he got into college, he’d take her to the city.
He succeeded, becoming the first person from their remote village to pass the exams and return to the city. He kept his promise and brought Tu Jiaojiao with him.
But the day after they arrived, Yan Shu formally asked her for a divorce.
Tu Jiaojiao had a dream. She dreamed that famine had suddenly struck the village, that she had saved an educated youth named Yan Shu and married him, and that this man had eaten her food and drunk her water, brought her to the city, and then suddenly asked for a divorce.
Tu Jiaojiao: You heartless bastard! Are you the only one who can study?
And then, in 1977, two golden phoenixes took flight from Wu Li Village.

Theme: You only live once, so why make life harder than it needs to be?
The last episode was a bit disgusting. At first I thought he was Lihua's guiding lover, but in the episode he turned out to be a cat-and-mouse bitch. Man, I'm convinced, don't write a side story next time. It feels like being fed a mouthful of shit at the end. He can run away without seeing clearly after a one-night stand, but when he appears again, it should be a thoughtful and careful confession, instead of being a bitch who teases Lihua like a mouse like in the side story. He can be the CEO because his grandfather is, and Lihua can be Vice President Lihua was capable, but he didn't give Lihua equal respect. Even Lihua was the vice president of such a large company, and the blind date was actually an ordinary man. Please, please, they are both in the middle-level enterprise class. Such a capable woman would match some capable middle-sized enterprise elite second generation, after all, which class she is already in. The extra story is really like force-feeding readers a mouthful of shit. Don't write it next time. The previous part is fine. I don't think the part of Aihua's e-commerce business is abrupt. In fact, it is the imprint of motherhood and women in a historical environment where family is the most important thing and no one supports it. What's more, she is a heavyweight. If she is born, then her mark will be heavier. She has managed to balance career and family. The male protagonist has grown up from the background of a salesman. He has done a good job, but the extra story really makes me feel stuck in my throat. Please change it. Lihua is allowed to have low self-esteem, but Song is not allowed to be inferior. Respect Lihua, I think it is really low for a person named Song to do such a thing. After the first one-night stand, he ran away in the name of work. I can understand that he likes Lihua and dare not face it. If he likes it, he is timid. But after he came back, he proved that he should think carefully. He, Dalihua, He was only six years old, and his experience and background meant that he should express his feelings carefully instead of being arrogant and teasing. Because Lihua was strong enough to match him, his behavior was too arrogant, which later put Lihua in a stage of self-doubt for a long time. This is pua. , The most disgusting thing is the meeting with the parents. He didn't even make a careful confession, forcing Lihua to face his parents and tell his sister. Although he explained that all his actions showed his feelings, he was too condescending. Brands can send clothes to Lihua's house for her to choose. He In the wealthy class, these behaviors are not expressions of affection at all but insults, because a phone brand can be given as a gift, a nanny can wash it, and hairpins are even more ridiculous. In the past, bullies would "follow" those who had no money and even buy cars, bags, debts, auctions, and high beads, 100 I can also buy the gold hairpins I bought at the counter in g mall and use them to express my feelings to a female CEO worth billions. I only see arrogance, so please, please change it or delete it, even if it is like a passing cloud, explain Lihua Yuehua, even if it is It's okay to mention Luo's mother's bad life. Please stop writing about such uncomfortable male tyrants. Male tyrants can always be arrogant when asking for help, but if they don't have anything to do with each other, they are looking down on others. The last paragraph made me feel as uncomfortable as if my boyfriend spat in my mouth when I was kissing him.
It's a rare piece of writing, I'm overjoyed! It's so hard to find good articles that are truly coherent in terms of writing, plot, logic and concepts. At this point, I really want to scold the editor of Jinjiang. Instead of putting such good articles on the recommendation list, they put some crappy articles with illogical dialogues that make no sense, like kindergarten children talking nonsense. I am really angry for the author! If we don't support such good works but instead support bad ones, isn't this just bad money driving out good money? Do you know how painful it is for me to search for articles every day and find despair? The author must persist, gold will always shine. I am going to register a Douyin account to recommend such good articles.
After three days of chasing, I finally finished it. It was so good that I couldn't help but read it in one sitting. Everyone in this book is very vivid, including Aihua and Lihua. Lehua, Luochuan, Tongtong, Xu Zhiqiu, Jiangyoucai, I like these people very much. Even the neighbors in the village are vividly described. They are not simply bad people, nor are they simply good people. The environment creates changes in personality, and the environment also creates changes in how people behave. The most rare thing is to maintain one's original intention and character. Anyway, the writing is great, I like it!
Although it is a female coming-of-age novel, the content is quite speechless.
This article is underrated!
Ah? Is that all? Where is Yuehua? In the early stage, the heroine seemed to care so much about Yuehua, but in the end, there was only one from Lihua... The heroine didn't appear much, she was like Lihua's love interest. No, huh?
Reading the author's writings gives me a sense of security as if I'm wearing long trousers tucked into my socks. The writing is plain, but both the characters and the direction of the story have their own logic. The hooks of the story are thrown one after another and it's not boring to watch. However, compared to the emotional line (the part where the male and female protagonists quarrel is particularly well written), I prefer the career line hahahaha
How did it end! ! It took me two days to finally finish reading it. Although it has been a long time, can the author please add more extras? Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
