Transmigrating to the Northern Song: A Wet Nurse’s Daughter’s Life in the Kitchen

I really like stories about ordinary people, not stories where the female lead is always some kind of superhuman, and it doesn't necessarily have to be about romance. I hope the female lead can lead her family to a better life.

Not bad! The female lead is an ordinary person with modern insight and depth of understanding. She has a certain political acumen and a low-key attitude befitting someone from an ordinary family. Besides her modern experience, she doesn't have any other special advantages. 💕💕💕

The beginning lays out various character relationships, which can be tiring to read, but the writing style is decent, and it's quite comfortable to read through. It unfolds slowly and steadily, making it a pretty good read overall. The main reason is that the mother is too soft-hearted, and the female lead takes care of Xing'er in a somewhat saintly way, but it doesn't take up a lot of screen…

The author's literary foundation is solid; it's evident that they researched extensively on the history of the Northern Song Dynasty. Life is depicted as simple and ordinary, yet the story compels the reader to savor it. It's rare to find a novel where you can read without skipping chapters.

A very heartwarming and ordinary short story, set against the backdrop of a "cook," with romance only appearing in the last few chapters (or perhaps the very last chapter). The main focus is on the protagonist Tan's struggles and the various people and events she encounters. There are no major conflicts, and minor ones are quickly resolved. A good story, recommended ★★★

It's well-written, and I found a lot of knowledge in it. I feel the author put a lot of effort into portraying the world of this dynasty. However, I felt the later parts became superficial and too brief. I think if it had been written more, it would have enriched the story even more.

The female lead in the beginning is a bit too saintly, but in my opinion, it's just her moral values ​​from her past life at play. Although it feels like there are a lot of foreshadowing and the later development of her into a powerful and influential character is what makes the book's title fit, overall the character development is quite good.

There are a few minor flaws, but they are negligible. The ending felt a bit rushed, but overall it's still pretty good. I don't know why the rating is so low.

It's clear the author did some research, consulting numerous historical documents. The novel feels like it's told from the female protagonist's perspective, depicting life in the Song Dynasty; it leans towards an ensemble piece. It's well-written, though some parts could perhaps be expanded upon.

There were no life-or-death separations, national feuds, or family feuds. The female lead was very lucky and lived a peaceful and smooth life, but the ending felt a bit rushed. 😳
