I've finally finished writing it. It's over a million words and took more than half a year to complete.
The author is a newbie and didn't know what an outline or detailed outline was from beginning to end; he just wrote whatever came to mind.
It fell apart after 100,000 words.
After reading some comments, the author considered giving up and starting over.
Those in the know will understand that the number of readers of this book during its serialization hovered between 18,000 and 20,000. This number was accumulated over fourteen days, so you can imagine how many people were reading this book each day.
The author, who is not highly educated, originally envisioned Su Qingci as a clever, witty, and charming little cutie.
As a result, after I finished writing it, readers kept calling my female lead a complete idiot...
The author doesn't know what happened either... the author is innocent too!
Fortunately, I had a group of fans who supported me all the way, otherwise I might not have been able to persevere. To be honest, I almost went to work in a shoe factory in Huizhou halfway through.
I really tried my best. From the start of the book to its completion, I took a day off on the most difficult day. I updated on time almost every day, but the data was really terrible. Who understands? As an author, I started earning seven or eight yuan a day, slowly working my way up to more than fifty yuan a day, but I was chased and scolded by some readers who didn't like me every day. It almost made me depressed.
The most tragic scene is in the first 110 chapters, when Qingci became the security captain and led her team to get rid of a stray dog that came down from the mountain and was harassing the village, biting people and livestock.
The author is almost driven crazy by dog lovers... The dog is already set up as a stray dog that came down from the mountain and killed the villagers' dogs, chickens and ducks, and even bit people and children, so why can't it be beaten?
For a long time, the author wrote long posts to the platform every day requesting the removal of comments that insulted the author. I don't understand this Tomato platform. I reported those malicious and abusive comments, and you deleted them, but before deleting them, you would send a message to the other party's account saying that your post violated the Tomato Community Guidelines and had been deleted.
Then they came again...
Here we go again, here we go again. One of the accounts has been reported, and here it comes again, reported, and here it comes again.
The insults directed at the author escalated from initial profanity to phrases like "stupid, vicious, will suffer great misfortune, will get their comeuppance," and eventually, they became completely devoid of any sensitive words. She changed it to something like, "Even if I've completed nine years of compulsory education, compared to you, I'm still Einstein..."
Because of the numerous negative comments, I stopped reading them later on; my mental fortitude is too weak.
Thanks to some loyal readers who have been following the updates, commenting actively, and even seriously discussing the plot, which has given the author tremendous courage and encouragement.
Thank you so much! There are so many readers who have followed the series every day from beginning to end, and even helped by watching ads and sending gifts every day.
Touched, grateful, thankful!
That tipping ad is so long, even the author doesn't want to watch it...
You two are true love!
In addition, many readers said they didn't understand the grudges of the Song family's previous generation, so the author will explain it to everyone from God's perspective.
Simply put:
Grandpa Song, born into humble circumstances, harbored great ambitions. In that chaotic era, he met and fell in love with Song Wenyuan's mother.
The Li family were local gentry. Song Wenyuan's mother, Li Yalan, greatly admired Grandpa Song and provided initial funding to help him build a team.
Grandpa Song was both a scholar and a warrior, and his army quickly grew larger and larger, but in the end he let Li Yalan down.
The reason is that when people stand higher, they can see further and want more. Compared to vows of eternal love, power fascinates him more. In order to expand his power, he married Song Shiming's mother.
As mentioned earlier, Song Shiming's mother was the only surviving daughter of the warlord family. Grandpa Song married Grandma Song, and the two families joined forces, merged their armies, and became the largest warlord in the area.
Grandma Song was flamboyant and beautiful, and she had a very good relationship with Grandpa Song. The two shared the same ideals and soon became the apple of Grandpa Song's eye.
But Grandpa Song had a cinnabar mole, yet he was unwilling to give up his white moonlight.
Therefore, after Song Wenyuan was born, he continued to live with his mother at his maternal grandparents' home, the Li family.
There was a lot of gossip and pointing fingers outside. Li's grandfather had no choice but to force his daughter to write to Song's grandfather asking for a formal status. At that time, there was no marriage law, and one could marry several wives.
Li Yalan wrote a letter for Song Wenyuan, but the letter was received by Grandma Song.
Grandma Song came looking for him. Uncle Li believed that Grandpa Song had betrayed his sister because of this woman who was backed by the army. He thought that in order for his sister to rise in rank, he had colluded with the bandits of Longtuo Mountain to kill Grandma Song.
Later, Song Shiming came looking for her and avenged his mother by wiping out the entire Li family.
That's the cause.
What followed was that Song Wenyuan didn't die; he was rescued, escaped unscathed, and survived by using Li Ruide's name. He became an underground party member and wanted to take revenge on the Song family.
Song Jingzhou's mother, Wang Sujun, was originally a servant in the Li family and was Song Wenyuan's personal maid.
As a child, he was frightened and became mute after walking with the Wang family outside amidst constant gunfire. He was then sent back to Xiangnan Village to live.
It was Song Wenyuan who helped her through that dark period. The two grew up together, loved each other, and pledged their lives to one another.
As a result, the Li family was wiped out.
Wang Sujun, full of passion, followed her parents to join the Communist Party and gradually got closer to Song Shiming. Later, she discovered that he was the enemy who had harmed her beloved's entire family. So her mission was twofold: the revolutionary cause and revenge for her lover. In the end, Song Shiming fell in love with her.
The second branch of the Song family (the family of Grandpa Song's younger brother) became enemy agents. Li Ruide knew that Grandpa Song's family was innocent, but in order to take revenge, he tied the entire Song family together, with the aim of wiping out the entire Song family and avenging the Li family.
