The 1970s and 1980s
The male lead serves in the military and doesn’t return home. The original owner is bullied and killed. The female lead transmigrates here and can earn money, and the children are sensible. The male lead returns intending to reap the rewards, but the female lead swiftly divorces him and takes the children away. She takes the college entrance exam and builds a career, then ends up with someone who shares her ideals. No pointless entanglement with the ex, just a clean break.

The storyline is well-written, but the protagonist, Su Ye, has been changed to Xu Jing, which is probably a layout issue. Also, the county lieutenant is not a seventh-rank official; the county magistrate is a seventh-rank official, the county assistant is an eighth-rank official, and the county lieutenant should be an eighth- or ninth-rank official.
This book is relatively light-hearted, without overly dramatic or exaggerated skills, and doesn't exceed the limits of imagination. The plot is reasonably well-designed and has some humor, so I recommend it for a light read.
Well written, I like the female protagonist and hope the author continues writing; it's been several days since the last update.
It's better to rely on yourself than on others 🍉
Is this considered an unfinished construction project?
That's it? What about the two female leads? What about the scholar's story?
I'll be the first one.
I'll give it a good review. Just a heads-up: when suffering from heatstroke, avoid cold water, use a hot towel to wipe your body, and drink ginger soup.
Leaving readers with an "open ending" is quite bold of the author! I bet it's about the author taking two female warriors and bodyguards to fight, only to be wiped out.
It was pretty good! But it ended so quickly, there was no ending.
