The witty remarks at the beginning felt fresh, but after a while they became a bit greasy. Novels are supposed to be higher than life, but they shouldn't be too high either. I almost gave up, but thankfully they decreased later on. Thank you, it's rare to find a book I like, don't disappoint! Keep it up! 😊 Great, great, great!
Haha, this is hilarious, the jokes are frequent! The only thing is the triplets part is a bit ridiculous; that trope made me almost give up on the story because I initially thought it was a typical spoiled wife romance. Surprisingly, it's quite good and enjoyable to read, and the female lead is rather cute. The old lady Qin is also vividly and fully developed.
It's so good! I love the female lead's personality. It's a shame it's too short.
The author portrays the stark reality of a life filled with hardship and poverty with humor, making the story both poignant and amusing. The female protagonist, transported back to the 1970s, doesn't act superior; she chooses to live a life of quiet desperation, adhering to the principle of "I won't offend others unless they offend me."
I read to the end and it wasn't finished! I dug myself into this mess. The writing and plot flow smoothly, with a ton of unique jokes and plenty of ethical drama, involving both the village and the military. The male-female couple's storylines aren't bizarre, and the drama queens are easy to please. She often cooks delicious food, and her sweet little home helps everyone. When will the author update? I'm waiting anxiously until dawn today.
Humorous and witty, I've never seen a novel like this on Tomato Book before. It's quite funny, unlike the usual school-themed stories. It's all about building the country; there's really no need for everyone to be highly educated or become a middleman. This book is pretty good and can give you a different experience. [Top Post]
For a historical fiction novel of around a million words, I'd say it's alright overall... The main plot is actually quite cliché: the female protagonist travels back in time to a historical novel, then uses her wits to fight against the awful people in the countryside, and after joining the army, she fights against the awful people, builds her career, raises her children in the military…
The story is great, but the character is too thin; I'll have to wait and urge for more updates again 🤦
The first half is full of jokes, some of which are really funny, but many of them are inappropriate and make me want to drop the story. I don't know if it's to highlight the characters' growth, but the second half is basically devoid of jokes, with a lot of changes, but there are also a lot of typos! And then... The story is very long and involves a lot of events. If you can accept the early part, you should find it very enjoyable, not bland at all.
I stumbled upon this book and devoured it in one go: Oh no, I'm hooked! Another long journey of following a favorite author begins. Then I checked the author's profile... Well, I followed the last one for ages before uninstalling Tomato (a popular Chinese online book review site) 🤦 The writing and plot are truly superb!
