Looking for a Ruthless, Self-Serving Female Lead Who's Cunning, Clever, and Decisive About Killing
Multiple couples or no couples are both fine. Gorgeous characters would be even better, and having a pocket dimension is a bonus. The main thing is that the female lead must be ruthless. No frustrating, spineless, or sluggish characters. Any genre is fine!! I mainly care about the female lead's characterization. If that works for me, I'll enjoy the story.

It's quite good. The entire story revolves around the female lead, unlike many period dramas where the male lead appears as soon as the protagonist goes to the countryside: he's either a spoiled brat from a wealthy family, a soldier, or a rough country bumpkin. The female lead is single-mindedly focused on saving her family, improving their living conditions, and concealing the secret of her spatial dimension; she doesn't seem to care about men at all.
Well written, historically accurate, and more rigorous than many TV dramas despite being a novel. The characters are detailed and the logic is sound. I have only one request: I can accept a romantic pairing, but not too early. The ending should be a triumphant union at the peak of their careers. Don't rush into romance before accomplishing anything else; don't let your brain be eaten by rats the moment you see a man. This humble request is mine; I hope it can be granted.
I enjoy watching time-travel dramas. Not the overly absurd kind. There are some special abilities, but not many. None of them leave the characters feeling completely useless for the rest of their lives. Life still requires struggle, even for time travelers. Otherwise, you won't have anything to eat.
I really like the female lead's personality—she's intelligent and resilient. Xu Moli embodies the saying, "When poor, cultivate your own virtue; when successful, help others," perfectly embodying the spirit of not being a "saintly saint." When they were poor, she was a strong support for her younger brother and parents on the farm.
Actually, the overall plot is quite good. The beginning was very enjoyable to read, it's a great story with a strong female lead! So you can overlook the minor bugs in many places, after all, it's a great story. But in chapter 237, the female lead is reported as a spy, and the school tries to suppress her study abroad opportunity.
This article is clearly structured and meticulously crafted, with vivid and lively character descriptions. The author must have done a lot of research and preparation. Best of luck to the author!
Listening and watching, I eagerly awaited the photos at the end of each chapter: enamel mugs with writing on them, tea trays, old-fashioned bicycles, black cotton shoes, patched military overcoats—my family had all these things in the 1970s, and I'd seen them all. With the changing times and several moves, they were all discarded. Looking at the photos brings back so many childhood memories.
The story is really good, and the female lead's personality and way of doing things are excellent. However, when the senior brother appears around chapter 200 and pairs her up with someone else, the female lead's character starts to falter, and the forced romance feels too stiff. Their relationship isn't love at first sight or a gradual deepening; it's purely based on them feeling compatible and that they're good-looking, so they become a couple.
The author's writing is quite good, vividly depicting life in the 1970s. The subtle use of supernatural abilities is very effective, making for a pleasant and refreshing reading experience. It's clear the author put their heart into this piece. Recommended.
The novel is quite good and inspiring. The pacing is just too fast; the female lead never stops, constantly pushing herself forward, balancing her studies, business, and life. She's incredibly dedicated, even making a lazy person like me feel tired. She's so driven that even I, the reader, couldn't stop reading! Thankfully, the ending is perfect, and her life is perfect too. It's definitely worth reading.
