The mason is full of pride, but is still in the dust of building a house. The high-rise buildings are in front of the eyes, and the hometown is full of books. The sun is shining brightly above my head, and the light is shining brightly in the vast plains. All you know is a bricklayer, and there are very few people who can be called craftsmen. Watch me do it one by one.

"Two Books I Photographed by Students" is Huang Deng's summary and reflection on his thirteen years of teaching practice as a college teacher. It is also a sincere feedback on the marketization practice of Chinese colleges and universities. In the long-term contact and observation of his teaching subjects, that is, ordinary second-tier college students, the author presents to readers their youth, hesitation, confusion, innocence and struggle, and follows up on their future, showing the hidden life situation of this group in a relatively comprehensive way. At the same time, this book also reflects the growth conditions and destiny of the most ordinary young people in China. This is an original non-fiction work with detailed information and in-depth perspectives.

On the eve of the Spring Festival in 2016, an article titled "The Rural Scene in the Eyes of a Rural Daughter-in-law" described the fateful changes of three generations of her husband's family living in rural Hubei from the perspective of a rural daughter-in-law, triggering a national discussion on rural issues. Taking this opportunity, the author Huang Deng restructured his uninterrupted rural writing in the past thirteen years and wrote this book, which records in detail the ups and downs of the three village families where his husband's family, his own family, and his grandmother's family are located. Huang Deng's true, detailed and in-depth records and analysis of his relatives provide valuable samples for Chinese people to think about rural issues and Chinese social issues.

Huang Deng's true, detailed and in-depth records and analysis of his relatives provide valuable samples for Chinese people to think about rural issues and Chinese social issues. The three villages Huang Deng shows in the book - Fengsan Village, Fengxing Village, and Aikou Village, span the two provinces of Hunan and Hubei. Although they seem to have no connection with each other and are far apart, the challenges and crises faced by the relatives living here are almost the same because they share a common "peasant identity."

The new works in Huangdeng's "Two Students" series have been recommended by Liang Hong, Xu Zhiyuan, Xiang Biao, Bai Yansong, and Qian Liqun. Even if it is a second school, it still requires the efforts of the children and the support of the family. No matter how remote the village or town, education is always the first choice for young people to change their destiny.

Hometown is beautiful. For thousands of years, the hometown has become a place of spiritual and emotional sustenance for outsiders. For me, my hometown is the root of my life and the source of my emotions. Even though I have been studying abroad for many years, my concern and longing for my hometown have not diminished at all. No matter how busy I am, I try to go home and stay for a while during the holidays every year. What surprises me is that in recent years, I have found that my desire to go home is not as strong as before. For me, my hometown seems to have an invisible barrier. As for where this barrier comes from, it is hazy before my eyes. I have to admit that the romantic imagination of my hometown in my youth was certainly one of the important reasons for my change in mentality, but her changes in the past ten years are indeed shocking.
