The author writes really well and has a smoky atmosphere. It seems really frustrating for Lao Tan and Lin Yan not to divorce in this state, but this is real life. How difficult it is to live, how can there be so much happiness?
I don't like the heroine Lin Yan. At the beginning, she kept pushing to make money and kept taking money from her parents' family. The two younger brothers went to school, got married, and worked all the time. Later, she complained that the hero was not at home. Later, when the hero got sick and had an accident, she basically didn't take care of her. The hero's family was poor at first, but the family was higher than the heroine. They always said that a bad wife should not be abandoned, but I feel that the situation is different from that of the hero and heroine. Moreover, the two younger brothers of the female protagonist only use the male protagonist as an ATM machine. How can they be grateful? I don't understand why the author keeps talking about feelings. In fact, there is no relationship between the two. I guess even the family relationship is very weak. I feel that the two of them are too tortured. Whether it is Yaru or Chen Li, it feels good that they can become one. Personally, I have a meager reading experience.
This is an interesting novel. The name is a bit awkward. The better the name, the better the results should be. I rarely post book reviews. But this book is really well written. It may be suitable for readers over 30 years old.
Personally, I think it's just a story about a brother-supporting demon and a slave race. Beginners should be careful.
The writing is very good, using simple language to write about an ordinary cook. It's very down-to-earth, and the author is an experienced person. It would be difficult for me as a high school student to write with such a flavor. Let's learn from each other! ! ! 🙏🙏
A few words: The author is a cook and is not professional in writing novels. If he can write, he writes about his own personal experiences. He is not very good at designing plots or shaping characters. If you think about it, real life is like this. You don't have much to do as you please, especially when you are middle-aged. Family, children, career, buying a house, buying a car, making money to support the family, food, rice, oil and salt, eating, drinking and having sex, etc., For a common person there are joys and frustrations. About the male protagonist's marriage is a normal abnormality in family life in today's society. It's not that it doesn't exist, but that people don't want to face it. To be honest, realistic novels are difficult to write. The author just writes about real life. I hope there will be a breakthrough in the next work.
A good book is not just about being a cook, but about being a human being. When you are a human being, you must have a bottom line, have rules, and be attentive. As long as you persevere, there is no reason to fail! Thank you, a good book is one that can teach people to learn something!
Does Lao Tan have no emotional intelligence or is there something wrong with his brain? It's strange that he is so good at family and career.
I gave up the book after reading Chapter 92! Some of the management concepts written in this book are quite consistent with business facts. But when the protagonist returned to Guandong, it was a bit confusing. If a boss has a questionable character, he is no longer trustworthy. Even if he wants to cooperate again, at least some conditions must be attached.
Recommended starting point. I opened it and read it, but I haven't finished it yet. I couldn't help but say a few words. The subject matter is well chosen, the writing style is also good, and the story is quite attractive. It feels like it can be compressed by 30%, making it more coherent and attractive.
