Anti-troll and anti-smear guide: In the village, farming involves crops like cucumbers and tomatoes, raising chickens, ducks, geese, and pigs, and even raising cattle and dogs! It all depends on how the author writes and uses it. The chickens, ducks, and geese here weren't bought; they were a gift from my grandparents!
Why is the score so low? Our female lead is great! And she doesn't even have a romantic partner! I love how she can be so fierce and ruthless on one hand, but turn around and she's gentle, sweet, and tender—the grandparents' little darling.
It's really good, but there's not enough to see 🤦
I've read over fifty chapters; the character descriptions are quite vivid and engaging, but I just can't get into it. The grandfather's storyline is minimal, and he lacks presence. Some characters are indeed unlikable, and the author has said it will improve later, but I simply can't continue. Those with patience can try to persevere. It's impossible to please everyone, so the author shouldn't listen to so many opinions and keep revising according to their own vision.
It's great; this kind of slow-paced writing is very relaxing to read. There aren't any melodramatic plot twists or scheming, unlike those stories that go on for hundreds of chapters and leave readers impatient.
The best parts are all still ongoing 🤦🤦🤦
Don't be scared off by the title! I didn't have high hopes at first either, but after reading it, I found it very worthwhile. The only downside was that it was a bit exaggerated; things like vegetables in a village could easily cost thousands or tens of thousands of yuan.
Actually, I think the female lead's character design is quite good, and the main storyline is also very good, fitting the kind of wealthy and leisurely rural life I wanted to see. It's just that many supporting characters lack boundaries and their personalities are somewhat unlikable, which made it hard for me to continue watching. Okay, after reading many readers' reviews, the female lead does indeed lack assertiveness.
We love each other and develop harmoniously; we don't need to create a romantic pairing or a male lead. Full marks are required.
Well written, I support it.
