Ol'boy! this is a tale of malice, jealousy and sibling rivalry. I already can't drop it. I recommend this book.
I need to address the pacing here because this book is doing something clever that I didn't expect. We're watching a former cultivator's life — bathing kids, cooking rice soup, gathering pig fodder, selling frogs at market — and yet it never drags. Not once. How is this even possible? The answer is the author's mastery of micro-tension. Every scene has a tiny stakes mountain that needs climbing. Will the sweetfish survive the rain? Will anyone see them together? Will the dried fish actually dry? Will the kids behave during martial arts exercises? These are small questions but the author treats them with the weight of epic quests, and it works. Look at the structure of Chapter 18: they get the fish, they race back, it rains, half the fish die, they cook what's left, they eat until they're stuffed, then immediately plan the next move (selling early, faking a period). There's no breathing room between scenes and that's intentional. The narrative momentum mirrors Ye Qingyun's own life — there is no pause, there is only the next task. But the author also knows when to slow down. The breakfast scene with the pickled vegetable rice soup — that's a full recipe described in detail, and it's glorious. The children's reactions, Wang Tiezhu's suspicion that it's pig feed, the collective gasp when they taste it — it's a complete emotional arc in one meal. And the transitions! From exhausting four kids into sleep to moonlight trek to Ghost Creek to thunderstorm to market to returning to work the same afternoon — the timeline is tight, almost claustrophobic, and it makes you feel exactly what Ye Qingyun feels. There's no escape from the schedule. Which is honestly the most realistic portrayal of rural labor I've ever read in a novel. The pacing IS the theme.
