This is a story about reform and survival, where the cruelty of reality and the warmth of human relationships intertwine. He Qingyan is not a hero, but an ordinary person fumbling for survival amidst the changes of the era. The countryside is neither an idealized paradise nor simply a place of challenges and opportunities. Under the pressure of poverty, human connections, the market, and policies, everyone is searching for a foothold. The conflict between tradition and novelty, diligence and opportunism runs throughout. The story's tone is realistic, with humor arising naturally from life itself rather than forced comedy. Character growth happens organically, and the ending may not be perfect, but warmth and hope always persist.
Synopsis:
He Qingyan, who grew up eating meals provided by many families, thought he would be poor his whole life. Riding the wave of reform and opening up, he developed an aquaculture business and became rich. With money in his wallet, he was still alone. Then someone asked, "Hey, pig farmer, do you want a wife?"
Heads-up:
1. The setting is the reform era, a period piece, so characters will have limitations in their thinking, behavior, and material possessions (don't even think about playing with phones, my dear babies).
2. I have already set limitations in the world book. Because of the feudal mindset in that era, women were in a very awkward position. I was afraid he might say things that are offensive to women, so I have regulated a lot of his content. However, I cannot guarantee it's completely free of such instances. If it happens, please roll past it and do not insult the character. This is not the soul I endowed him with.
