Republican-Era Stories, No Couples, and No Brain-Dead Writing
Nothing ridiculously over-the-top with numbers like 999.9 billion, and no System either. I like stories where people achieve their goals through their own hard work. Any protagonist gender is fine, but no pregnancy-and-running-away plots or vague romantic tension with someone.
Period-Era Fiction! Really Good Ones! No Pocket Spaces, They’re Too Unrealistic!
I don't know why, but lately I've been really into stories set in a bygone era, especially ones about transmigration. Transmigrating into a book is fine too. I read one about a soft-hearted freeloader and a green-tea schemer and really loved it. It felt so real, but it's still being updated. Ladies, any more recommendations? No stories where they get a pocket dimension and supplies like a supermarket, though.

Not bad, not bad, quite exciting, quick and easy, I hope there won't be too many top quality things in the follow-up, it's more of a warm and cozy one Why do I feel more and more frustrated as I watch it? The female protagonist has been raising children, serving the elders, raising a large family, and also dealing with the troubles left by the male protagonist. Everything has been solved. Now that life is a little more stable, the male protagonist comes out and makes amnesia jokes. Not to mention that he has not made any contribution to the family, the male protagonist still has to hug everyone and enjoy everyone. Fortunately, the heroine has to deal with the bad things caused by the hero at home. The jealousy of women is very terrible. The heroine has never had a peaceful life like this, and she has been solving the mess for the hero. The heroine was the apple of the family before she got married. Why does she need this husband? If the plot behind this is still torturing the heroine, I really can't watch it.
It looks good. I hope Bai Baozhu will not reconcile with Shen Boting. After all, they never met each other in the previous life. The heroine fought alone. In this life, the man also has a new home, even if it feels like there is foreshadowing. I want to see the heroine dare to love and hate, instead of forcing her to be consummated in the end.
Very good so far The heroine has a good character. It's a 1950s novel. Please write it well. People live just to live well...~
It's so good to read, please give it a thumbs up to the author 👍
The novel is very interesting, the writing is good, and the story is very novel. The heroine is the eldest granddaughter-in-law of a large family and the mother of five children. The big family was influenced by the old ideas and also accepted the new trends of that era. In her last life, she tried her best to protect her family, although she failed. Fortunately, in this life, she dreamed about the tragic experience in her previous life, and prevented it from the source. She spent all her wealth and everything she had to guide the family's destiny on the right path when dividing the family. Very impressed. It is really not an exaggeration to say that the heroine has exhausted everything. It is her husband's family that is too difficult to take care of. A thief sister-in-law from her husband's family, a thief sister-in-law from her mother's family, a stupid mother-in-law, a kind-hearted but somewhat foolish child, and a husband who was used as bait to marry a spy wife for his family and country's righteous relatives. Fortunately, my brother-in-law and grandma supported the heroine. Otherwise, it would be really tiring to take this family on a flight. After reading the comment section, I started reading because I was so angry that my liver hurt. Still acceptable. In the context of the times, we can understand many of the heroine's thinking patterns. At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, it is unrealistic to wipe out all the old ideas and evil forces left over for thousands of years.
The plot of the story is relatively real, the language is concise and powerful, and it is in line with the development of the story. The heroine's independence and tenacity are worthy of admiration. It's a very nice article, thank you to the author!
It looks good, but there are too many 2bs, the bottom line is too low, and it challenges people's breasts.
The first paragraph is beautifully written, and all the pitfalls ahead have been filled in one by one. And it's full of suspense, making people keep looking down. But the remaining 1/5 is a bit boring. . . But overall it's still very nice. . . Like👍
It's well written, and the author is very attentive, but I don't like the genre. I felt frustrated while reading it. Personal preferences may vary.
The content of the article is quite rich, with ups and downs of the plot. It revolves around the heroine's mother-in-law's family, the parents of her colleagues and neighbors, and national righteousness. The text is concise and smooth, taking readers through the internal and external troubles in the 1950s when the People's Republic of China was just founded.
