Synopsis

[Faithful couples, two couples, each best friend has her own man. This is not the kind of dual-female-lead story where the women are lesbians. No golden finger, feel-good and satisfying with no angst, warm and sweet, not a career-focused female empowerment story. Every bit of scheming is just setup for romantic sweetness. The story takes historical details seriously, so if you’re going to nitpick, please move along.]

[This novel was written entirely by hand!]

No matter how big the world is, best friends come first. For a best friend, any boundary can be thrown aside.

Both descendants of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, pastry influencers Ying Xueyu and Jiang Ziting have been best friends for over twenty years.

One unlucky day, they both fell into a septic tank,

and transmigrated into the bodies of two pitiful girls with the same names as their own, both of whom had been murdered.

The two unfortunate women had no memories of their hosts and didn’t know who was after them!

They had no choice but to disguise themselves as men and sell themselves into slavery, hiding away while they figured things out.

They planned to spend a few years as stable hands, wait until they’d blossomed into young women, then buy their freedom and leave.

But the gloomy young heir and the roguish prince tied them up in the courtyard and made them “guard dogs”!

To stay alive, the two did their best to become model servants.

Plots in the rear courtyard, schemes in the imperial palace, plagues, poisonous parasites, and pursuit...

To save each other’s lives, the sisters had no choice but to roll up their sleeves and face it all!

The brothers An Shiyu and An Shixun

had only meant to put two stable slaves in the courtyard as dogs, to watch the gate, bite people, and amuse them every day.

They never expected that before long, all they’d want was to hold the two little puppies close, showering them with kisses and cuddles every day.

The two heroines can be sweet or salty! The romance gets sweeter and sweeter as the story goes on! Don’t overthink the logic! The synopsis isn’t great, so please give it twenty chapters

[Don’t compare my hand-written novel with stories written by robots. I don’t have their literary talent or abilities.]

[There are fewer and fewer novels written entirely by humans, so enjoy them while you can.]

It's great, very good. However, I was misled by the initial mention of two female leads and two male leads. I thought there were two girls in a relationship with two boys, but after watching the whole thing, I realized it was two separate relationships between the two main characters.

It's great. I like watching stories with two or more female leads, and each one has a VP (Vice President). I don't like complicated love triangles. This is so much better, with each character having their own strengths. Author, keep up the good work!

It's pretty good. This is only the second novel I've been willing to rate in all my years of reading Tomato Novels. There's no spatial dimension or system, and the two best friends maintain a very strong bond until death. It also avoids the clichéd palace intrigue, domestic power struggles, herb gathering, and recipe selling tropes. It relieved my anxiety when I was almost ready to give up reading and watch TV series instead. I hope the author continues to improve in their next novel!

I really enjoyed it. It's been a long time since I've read a book without skipping a single chapter. It's humorous, lighthearted, and has a tight pace. Both female leads are adorable. I noticed the author even replies to some of the paragraph comments, which made me feel like the author was tutoring me 😂. Although some words are repeated, it doesn't detract from the experience. The supporting characters are also very appealing. I hope the author continues writing! 🤦

Recommended! This is a short, time-travel, sweet, funny, clean-living story with two main couples, and it's a completed novel. The female lead and her best friend travel back to ancient times together. Both are main characters, existing like two-way mirrors to each other—trustworthy, sincere, humorous, not overly saintly, and vengeful.

It's really good! The story isn't very long, but the female lead is well-developed and natural, a romantic story with a touch of humor. The male lead is a bit of a tsundere (a character known for his arrogance and pride). The author is also excellent, and both the female and male leads take the initiative once they realize their feelings, without dragging things out.

I've started reading a new book, and it's definitely caught my attention, so I added it to my bookshelf. It's a very comfortable and engaging read. The biggest highlight is probably its "genuine character and genuine emotion"! The characters are portrayed very realistically, not at all unlikeable, but rather quite endearing.

Character Introduction Xueyu is my favorite character! Whenever danger arises, she's always the first to rush to protect her best friend Ziting. Zi Ting is the type who will retaliate fiercely if anyone dares to hurt those close to her. Although An Shiyu was a bit sharp-tongued in the early stages, he truly loved Xueyu later on. No one could hurt Xueyu; if anyone did, An Shiyu would kill them.

Great, great, I love it! Both female leads are so smart and cute. I just wonder how many children they have. The five generations under one roof is over, sigh, what a pity. They're both so cool, I love them! The little prince and the little heir are so interesting. The little prince is the cool and adorable type, and the little heir is the aloof and handsome type. Really great! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰😘😘😘😘😘😘😘₍˄·͈༝·͈˄*₎ ♥(｡￫V￩｡)♥

It's good, but the only thing that's a bit hard to judge is the male leads' parents. Perhaps I have a stereotype; in my understanding, the previous generation of sweet and heartwarming novels either featured scumbag parents or were virgins in a 1v1 relationship. The male protagonists' father had slept with a woman and had a daughter. Although he was tricked, it still felt a bit unsettling.
