I am amazed. This is going, awesome author. Hooked on this book. Waiting for the new updates... Do update quickly cant wait for the next chapter. Overall, a good book to recommend with good writing skills.. Please keep it up:)
I feel like the author could have done a lot better job since the basic plot is very interesting and you can see the author improving with more chapters but after like around chapter 20 or so you just feel like the MC is kinda idiotic, the plot is interesting but I just feel like the author didn't do it justice.
Pls update soonI want to read the next few chapters It is a rather fascinating read.

There is this recurring theme in the chapter about having only one child and it keeps coming back to me in different ways. Qiao Heping and He Yingying both agree they do not want a second child, and the author gives us this whole internal monologue about why. Qiao Heping reflects on how having multiple children creates all sorts of problems — favoritism, competition, financial strain. He thinks about his father who was exchanged for food as a child during the great famine, and his wife's family where the grandmother favored the uncle's children over He Yingying. He looks at his two friends who came to the city with him — one whose parents send money back and bring vegetables from the countryside, and another whose parents try to extract every penny from him because he is doing better than his siblings. The pattern is clear in his mind. More children means more complications, more inequality, more suffering. And then there is He Yingying who never liked boys because she had to take care of five nephews and found it exhausting. She secretly hoped for a girl. This is not just a casual conversation between a married couple. The author is using their personal decision to comment on something much larger. The preference for sons over daughters is a theme that runs through the entire novel, and the Hu family is the living embodiment of that problem. Ma Dahua suffered for years because she could not produce a son. She was called a hen that could not lay eggs, nearly divorced, humiliated. And now that she finally has a son, she is using that son as a weapon against He Yingying who has a daughter. The irony is almost unbearable. The Qiao family sees their daughter as enough, as complete, as worthy of love and doting. The Hu family sees their son as a achievement that gives them power over others. This contrast is the novel's thesis statement and it is delivered through these intimate family moments rather than through heavy handed preaching. The tomato, the bicycle, the shared bedroom debate, the fake mustaches for revenge — all of these small details are carrying the weight of this larger theme about what makes a family complete.
I love this whole series. Each book is good. I don’t want to stop reading. Love it.
