The female lead's mother is wise and responsible, with a touch of cunning; her father is seemingly simple-minded but loving and funny; her third uncle is a goofball; and the female lead, of course, is clever and adorable. In ancient times, being able to pass the imperial examinations, she'd naturally achieve great things. Looking forward to seeing this loving family life! It's really well-written! 😘😘
This is an incredibly beautiful ensemble piece! Author, please, please don't torture the little girls! Xiao Mi, Hui Hui, Yue Ya, Xiao Wei, Hui Niu'er, please let them have a good life, or I'll cry my eyes out! 😢😢😢 Waaah, just thinking about Xiao Mi and Yue Ya being sold makes me so sad at night, even though it's so realistic. It's so heartbreaking!!
Such a wonderful book, I can't bear to see it rated so low! Character traits: Realistic! The descriptions of the children's inner thoughts and feelings are incredibly realistic; it's been a long time since I've read a novel that truly captures the essence of childhood. Character personalities: From children to adults to elders, everyone has their own unique traits, strengths, and weaknesses.
I don't know how it will end yet, but I hope there won't be any romantic subplots in this female-centric novel. If there's no male lead, I'll follow the author forever 😳 It's so well-written! I'd be ready to follow you for as long as possible!
It's pretty good, but the main storyline about Xiaoping's education doesn't take up a lot of space. I wonder when we'll see the female lead's transformation and her true understanding of the meaning of education. However, the portrayal of ordinary people in daily life is quite good, creating a strong ensemble cast.
It's really good. The female lead is clever and cute, the family is very loving, and the writing is excellent. I also hope Hui-jie (the author) has a bright future. I just want Hui-jie's mother to die or get divorced, it's so annoying.
Facing the harsh reality beneath a seemingly lighthearted facade, and the inevitable tragedy beneath a heartwarming surface, life appears beautiful, but everyone has their own disappointments. There's a gap between the life we yearn for and reality, yet dreams always provide the motivation to strive towards our ideals.
This book is amazing, I highly recommend it. Some parts will suddenly make you laugh out loud. It's all very lighthearted, except for the character Zuo Dahu's wife, whom I hate the most. I hate her so much, I wish they could get a divorce right away.
It feels like a story about ancient girls being disciplined and molded into "normal" people from childhood. However, Xiaoping is a special case; she was born into an era where women could shine a little brighter. She met a discerning mother, several good classmates, and many excellent teachers. Among them are many others with similar life trajectories but different fates: Xiaomi next door, Duoduo from the Qian family, and Xiaocao. I hope the protagonist can continue to pursue her ideals.
Make sure to read the synopsis carefully before reading this book. The female protagonist's friends and supporting characters all have very difficult lives, becoming passersby in her life in various tragic ways. This is from a reader who was drawn in by the opening chapters and stayed up all night reading. Although I unintentionally fell into this pit, I can't help but complain; I feel unsatisfied. Writing this wasn't easy, so I'll still give it 4 stars.
