The heroine lives in the mountains, supports herself, grows crops and vegetables, and goes up the mountain to hunt for wild game. She has no family, and ideally the male lead is on his own too.

Let's talk about the protagonist first. Well, unlike the others, he is handsome and attractive from the beginning. Although, the author didn't describe the protagonist's appearance in detail. The content is quite good. Anyway, I think it is better than most other novels. Of course, my cultural level is limited, and I may not have noticed some details, but I still think this book is quite good. Too foolish and filial.
Down-to-earth style, hope to stick to it. The characters are distinct and full. I have read another ancient-themed novel by the author. The style and subject matter are similar but different. This one is more improved than before.
Highly recommended, if your life is too satisfying, please read this novel. The most incompetent and miserable time traveler in history. Others may have a bad start, but he can keep pushing hard. If you want to see the hard life, don't miss it.
Different styles, unique and fascinating
The storyline is very real, and the characters are very emotional and full-bodied. Everyone has their own character and their own ideas. The portrayal is lifelike, and there are no logical errors or things that are too logical. The description of things is good, although some plots made me very angry, but they are very consistent with China's national conditions and the emotions drive the direction. Very beautifully written. Keep up the good work, author. Maybe it can be made into a film and TV show.
Please update the author soon. I read a lot of books and felt boring. When I couldn't find a good book, I came across this one. It's nice. [Strong] Although the story is ordinary, the feelings are sincere and full of emotions Come on, it looks good. I will recommend it to my friends.
Is it okay not to let Erheizi marry Luo Fang? Their family is so bad. I gave up and felt very frustrated.
Although I haven't read a few of them, I watched the last work. The author wrote these ordinary little characters very vividly, with their own advantages and disadvantages, and the plot is also very similar to stepping on the rind of a watermelon and writing wherever you go 👍
This background is a combination of the prefecture system and the prefecture and county system in the early Western Han Dynasty, the use of money to seize titles during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the imperial examination system in the Tang and Song Dynasties, and the Eight Kings Rebellion in the Western Jin Dynasty. In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, royal power did not go to the countryside, and clans controlled the grassroots. It was a whole hodgepodge. After reading Chapter 84, it was a bit toxic and I had no choice but to abandon it. 😂
The plot is real and full, much better than a mindless novel. The details are carefully drawn. After all, the protagonist has no system, and he was not reborn in a wealthy family. If he grows up slowly, isn't it just a man who can bend and stretch? Come on!!
