I can only say that it is great, tearing out a truly transparent and free-spirited opening in the heavy and complicated ancient sayings about wealth and honor. The girl described by the author is open and unrestrained, simple and straightforward in doing things, not afraid of trouble, domineering, intelligent and measured, with a pure mind and great kindness, but she is just an ordinary beautiful child. I would like to call it the savage girlfriend ceiling, not the most savage, but the most chic. The heroine's free and easy and frankness are exactly what I yearn for. Life is your own. In just a few decades, why do you live a life of frustration because of some people who have nothing and have nothing to do with it? As long as you can take it up and let it go, and have a clear conscience, you will not let the world contaminate your heart, and nothing can tie up a free heart.
It's so beautiful, the writing is delicate, and there is no ink at all. I haven't read this good article in a long time. It is all wisdom in life, especially the way of getting along with each other between husband and wife, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. I strongly agree with what the book friend above said that it should be made into a TV series. This article has no time travel or golden fingers, but it has some rich connotations. It is great and worth recommending! Should be 9.99 Points
This is not a novel about gratification and revenge, and there is no storyline that ignores logic and only seeks twists and turns. However, this is only close to our stable life in this world. This is a novel in which the heroine and the people around her continue to grow. A country girl was suddenly taken to Kyoto and forcibly brought into the life of a powerful person (can we use the analogy of today's politicians?). The linear way of thinking collided with the winding way of thinking of the powerful people. The warm rural life of fireworks was replaced by the cold and arrogant life of the powerful people. The warmth of the little girl and the tolerance of the parents-in-law contributed to their happy life later. How could an uneducated country girl be so thoughtful? How come there is a pattern to save the suffering women in the world later? After all, I like the heroine and don't want to dwell on these issues.
Very interesting novel! The plot is compact and the language is humorous! The marriage that had been concealed for 20 years was suddenly brought up. The female protagonist Yun Qijiang suddenly found out that she was engaged when she was 17 years old and was immediately married. The male protagonist Zhan Huaiqian was still fighting at the border! From strangers to familiarity, the two know each other, love each other, support each other, and grow to rely on each other! I like Qi Jiang's righteousness and intelligence. This sincere and cheerful little man is popular wherever he goes!
It's well written, I like it. The story is wonderful and feels like reality. It can be made into a TV show. Unlike other authors whose articles are all about time travel, this book is beautiful.
It's super exciting, not because the heroine has a halo, but because she met good parents-in-law and has her own ideas. It's worth reading and deserves five stars. I hope the author can work hard. It's really better than the books on the list I've read before.
I really like the life of Qi Jiang and Zhan Huaiqian as a couple. The author's writing is really delicate and true. I can feel that this couple really respects each other and loves each other honestly. They can think, communicate and reconcile clearly from both sides' standpoints. They are a very charming couple. Finally, I want to praise the character Qi Jiang. She is smart and astute, she is bold but not reckless, she is passionate but not too pretentious, she is kind but not abusive, she gradually understands the world, right and wrong but never changes her kindness. What impressed me the most What makes her happy is that she has compassion for the women in the world. Whether it is Yuyan, Princess Yuchu, or the eldest lady, she hopes that they can live more freely and contentedly, and not be shackled by the so-called reputation of the world. The ending of the story is not yet known, but I like the feeling that everything is getting better.
After all, it's not time travel, and it's quite refreshing. I haven't read much yet, so keep reading.
It looks good, the characters are good, and the writing is good
I like the heroine's attitude towards life. The hero is a little foolish and filial at first, but he listens to advice. The heroine is sometimes a bit like a virgin and will reflect on herself, so it is good to read as a coming-of-age story. I caught up with Huo Xingshen and fell in love with the heroine and didn't read it. I didn't like this setting very much. I will read it when there is a shortage of books on the bookshelf.
