Historical-Era Stories with a Female Lead Who Stands on Her Own: No More Male Leads Who Keep Going to the Countryside to Help the Poor
I can accept romance developing later, but can there be a personal space and supplies, with the female lead thriving on her own? Also, please no stories where she is constantly sent to the countryside 🤣 to help impoverished male leads, only to end up becoming part of the male lead's family. The romance should not progress so quickly either. Would an educated youth from that era really be interested in a villager?

I quite like the female lead's character. It's nice that she has a small group of friends to hang out with; there's no saintly figure, and she doesn't fawn over anyone. Everyone gives and takes. The number of difficult characters isn't excessive, and the female lead has some fighting skills.
It's good. The female lead is sharp-tongued and can even hit people. The content is interesting, but it would be better if the pacing was faster. After going to the countryside, she said she was going to move out, but after reading these updates, she still hasn't moved out. Also, what happened to the Lu family? Did I miss something?
Unlike other period dramas about educated youth I've read, this one doesn't feature a protagonist who is at odds with the original female lead. Instead, the female lead gets along very well with the original female lead and even helps her out of her predicament. Her romantic relationship with the male lead is also quite natural.
It's good. The female lead is really strong and capable in combat. It would be even better if the plot paced a bit faster.
It's great! The plot is very exciting. I hope the author can update more often. Keep it up! 😘😘😘
The female lead is rational and intelligent, not a saint, five stars! 🙂
The revenge was quite satisfying, the writing was good, and the plot was rich, so it's pretty good. Keep it up!
The man was incredibly handsome, with jet-black, straight hair. His sharply angled, sword-like eyebrows, long and slender, hinted at a piercing edge. Sharp, dark eyes, thin, slightly pursed lips, angular features. Ming's silhouette was tall and slender, yet not rugged. A man reclined lazily on the couch. She wore a wide robe woven from purple brocade along the winding stream, her eyebrows...
This is the most satisfying rural educated youth novel I've ever read! The female protagonist is reborn, not only taking revenge on her family and emptying her pockets after being sent to the countryside, but she also didn't suffer any hardship or do any dirty or tiring work.
It's incredibly good! No wonder I've never been satisfied with so many time-travel novels set 70 years in the past—the stories about returning to the city are too long and I don't enjoy them. The countryside scenes are much more interesting. The beginning, with the protagonist tearing apart the awful characters, is incredibly satisfying. The epilogue is also very interesting. I didn't feel sad at the end because everyone had a happy ending! I haven't read such a good novel in a long time!
