A very novel ancient romance novel: a cunning father who marries into the family, a gentle and capable stepmother, a domineering stepbrother, and of course, a female lead who resembles her father remarkably well. The two cunning individuals are "in cahoots," hehe, very interesting.
Five points for this book: The female lead is seven years old when she first appears, and her mental age and behavior are just like a seven-year-old. She doesn't try too hard to be cute, but she's genuinely adorable. Her intelligence and wit are like a child with a cheat code, and of course, she also has her moments of childish foolishness and innocence, which I find quite rare.
I didn't have high hopes for this rating, but it was surprisingly good. The plot isn't cliché; two single-parent families reunite. We don't know yet if the little girl has a boyfriend, but for now, the main characters are these two families.
Having read over 400 chapters, I'm quite eager to continue. There are pros and cons, so let me point out the downsides: The female lead's growth trajectory—studying books and then medicine—follows somewhat the path of Zhou Man, the "Lucky Farm Girl," and many of her settings are similar, such as the system, the medical dummy, the book of farm tools, seeds, the Jishetang (a traditional Chinese…
It's a typical farming story, without any famine or famine-induced escapes. The main antagonist is a wicked uncle who plans to sell and eat his daughter, aiming to kill her. His revenge involves stealing grain and blowing up latrines. The villains kill the protagonist, and there's no law. Then, when the protagonist retaliates, he suddenly feels a sense of morality and law, realizing he can't kill people.
This is a very interesting ancient romance novel with a system and a beloved protagonist. The character settings are truly fascinating, even the system is split between two people. The novel has grown from a hundred chapters to a thousand chapters now. The early interactions were quite engaging.
A doting father, a doting father, a stepbrother who loves his sister, a stepmother who adores her daughter, and a pair of unique systems—it's really amazing! This system is truly unlike anything I've read in hundreds of system novels, but this is the first time I've seen one like this. A system exploiting another system—hahahaha! 😀😀😀
Ah, actually I don't understand why even 9 comments didn't pass; it shouldn't be that bad. I wasn't planning on commenting; the system setting is very novel and interesting. I looked at the negative reviews, and there might be some illogical points in the plot, like the mother widow's character not being as strong as expected, which felt a bit weak.
It's a very heartwarming family. At first, I thought it would be another case of awful relatives, so I watched with a critical eye. But surprisingly, from the very beginning, the father and daughter protected each other. It's amazing that in a small farming family, there's such a loving father. It's been a long time since I've seen someone so protective of their daughter, especially in that era.
I discovered this book after watching the comic book. Initially, I was drawn in by the adorable Northeastern dialect. But by page 490, I realized my cute "dialect"/Northeastern dialect was gone. Of course, that didn't stop me from continuing to read the book. The character interactions were quite well-written. However, there were a few minor plot holes that I found difficult to understand.
