A Lin Meimei Fell from the Heavens

About The Lin Mei Falling from the Heavens The story begins in 1983, in a picturesque village in Jiangnan, where a young man named Li Maiquan lives. Cheerful and kindhearted, he is an ordinary farmer who only finished junior high school. Although he enjoys boasting harmlessly from time to time, he is, at heart, an unequivocally good man. Because his family is poor and he is proud, he is already in his twenties without having found a wife. Carrying his hopes for the future, Li Maiquan joins a group of young people from the village and sets out for Beijing to find work. On the bustling yet unfamiliar streets of Beijing, fate leads Li Maiquan to an unexpected encounter with the love of his life, Lin Juan. Lin Juan is a second-year student at Beijing Normal University, with a cool, orchid-like elegance. Since her parents divorced, she has depended on her mother, and although their life is poor, they remain steadfast. The two first meet because of a sudden crisis: Lin Juan's mother falls seriously ill and is hospitalized, urgently needing several hundred yuan for medical expenses. To the impoverished mother and daughter at the time, this is an astronomical sum. Just when Lin Juan has nowhere left to turn, Li Maiquan appears after receiving his first month's wages, a full seven hundred yuan. Seeing the mother and daughter's predicament, he does not hesitate to give everything he has, pressing his entire salary into Lin Juan's hands. This enormous sum not only solves her immediate crisis, but also completely wins her heart. From then on, despite the vast difference in their social status, the two begin seeing each other frequently, writing a sincere and moving love story that crosses the divide between city and countryside amid the tides of the times.
