A Demolition-Era Household in the Nineties

There was no such thing as getting rich overnight from land expropriation in the late 1990s. Getting rich overnight from land expropriation only happened after the 4 trillion yuan stimulus package in 2008. Before that, if you could get a piece of land in the countryside at a low price to build a house, that was already pretty good.

The language is too formal. My brother says it's strange that I haven't formally brought it up yet. My dad also doesn't use the kind of vocabulary that people in our family use.

My house was also demolished in the city center. The process was very unpleasant. It wasn't about the money, but rather that we had already moved because we didn't have enough space. The demolition staff's condescending attitude was very insulting. But you can't fight city hall. It's been almost 20 years and the area remains undeveloped, still just an empty plot of land.

It's written alright. Personally, I feel there's very little dialogue; it's all direct description, which makes it lack a certain liveliness. There are also transitions where the plot suddenly changes, and I don't even know when the next scene starts.

It's very well written—it gets better and better—and it gives off an uplifting vitality.

Why am I able to find female-oriented books online? 🤫

It's well written, but there's not enough to read!

Although I didn't experience the demolition and relocation myself, I've heard quite a few stories about it around me. I can only say that the various demolition phenomena are described very realistically, yet the writing style is also quite interesting. Anyway, I'm definitely going to keep reading. 🌹

Updates are so infrequent! Each chapter is only a few hundred words long; I really don't have the patience to wait.

Hooray for the ending! It's been a journey with its own ups and downs, and I believe Ayu will continue to forge ahead calmly, following her own path. Sometimes I enjoy reading rebirth novels because I want to see how different choices lead to different lives. Although new explorations are often romanticized, they also come with the power to choose a different life.
