Overall, the writing is good, but some common sense and concepts about money are unclear. For example, it mentions two taels of silver for a cartload of potatoes, but then it says one hundred catties, so how much does one catty of potatoes cost? And the business is so good, yet the profit is only a few hundred taels of silver, not even a thousand.
The plot is well-developed and the content is touching. When I saw Xiaoyuer fall into the water and search for him, I was worried along with Yiyi. However, the relationship between Liniang and the female lead was not explained, and there were also two uncles who did not understand the female lead, especially the second uncle.
It's so irresistible, you just can't put it down!
The novel is well-written and very enjoyable.
Why is the rating so low? Such a good book, how could it have such a low rating?
Strong female lead, great read! Recommended.
Very good, the writing is smooth, the story is fast-paced, I really like it.
It's very well written. The father's family had some awful characters, including a strange grandmother and uncle with terrible morals. After the family split up, although the siblings weren't blood relatives, they were all of good character and worked together harmoniously, leading to a perfect ending. So, don't always think that blood ties are enough; it's the parents' character that matters. The children they raise will all be different.
The story depicts a rural life where the female protagonist has free access to her personal space. People in ancient times were quite accepting; they didn't see her as a monster. She raised an orphan, ensuring that her resources remained within the family.
A wonderful book! Keep up the good work, author! 👍👍👍
