It's good, I'll watch it! I just finished reading Xia's book, and there's already a new one! The author is very suitable for writing this kind of slice-of-life farming novel, which is simple yet charming and told in a gentle and detailed way. The female lead has a cheerful and generous personality. Her job as a police officer is quite rare. She also has a harmonious family and is a rare character!
It's quite good. There are no awful family members, and the family atmosphere is great. The female lead is also the first female lead I've seen in a period drama who is a police officer. I just felt that the relationship between the male and female leads came a bit suddenly, and the female lead didn't want to get married so early, but she got married under pressure from her parents, family, and…
This is a very different era novel with a great female lead and a good male lead who isn't a rough, uncouth guy at all. It's fantastic! I've been reading it on and off for several days now and I really love it. Author, keep updating! Please maintain the character development! ❤️
So good! It's the first time I've seen a female lead who's a police officer. Thumbs up! 👍🏻
I think this book is very well written. There are no exaggerated "golden finger" abilities; the female lead only graduated high school before transmigrating, so her life experience is limited, making her seem less powerful. The grandmother's open-mindedness and wisdom are truly a blessing to three generations! Currently following the story.
Thank you so much, author, for writing such a wonderful period drama! This is exactly what I've been looking forward to, especially the female lead who breaks away from the typical period drama mold by becoming a police officer—that's amazing! 👍 Haha, no matter the era, there are always plenty of bizarre blind date stories, haha.
It's super good! The only police drama I've ever watched, and it features a female police officer. There's no time-traveling plot device, it's realistic about the era, and the female lead is down-to-earth, leading her family to a happy life. The story is very engaging.
I think the author's choice of subject matter is excellent. A rural girl becomes a police officer in the city, and the early chapters depict the everyday life of rural families, while the later chapters explore the lives of ordinary city dwellers. The most ingenious part is the interweaving of various cases and a mysterious cat, keeping the reader constantly engaged. The author's dedication is truly admirable! Keep it up!
Finally, it's not a story about educated youth going to the countryside to farm and causing chaos! The theme is very fresh, author, keep it up! Looking forward to the next exciting chapter!
A perfect score! First of all, the character design is completely different! A female police officer! She knows her future path but she didn't take the college entrance exam! Instead, she chose a worker-peasant-soldier university and then pursued postgraduate studies! The child isn't simply portrayed as clinging to her mother and not her father!
