This is the first time I've read a story where the male lead is a scrap metal dealer [I've learned something new]. I usually see this in those historical romance novels where the female lead is a scavenger. 😆😆😆 It's really interesting. The female lead is truly an all-around amazing little nun; she can grow crops, sew clothes, and cook.
It's good, and the content is quite exciting. However, I don't really like the part about them having a cheat code (or "golden finger") after time-traveling. But in that era, it seems like it would be very difficult to survive without such a cheat code, so I'm conflicted.
The writing style is normal, the values are normal, the plot is reasonable, and the female lead consistently plays a major role in the story. However, there are some gender stereotypes in the text. For example, the fact that the blond guy is skilled in mechanics is used to justify his being a boy, and the female lead is described as a "tomboy" because she helps investigate cases and injures…
It's a really good show. The female and male leads missed each other in their past lives, but their fate is rekindled in this one. Although the female lead has a special ability or advantage, she mainly relies on her intelligence and resourcefulness. The special ability is just icing on the cake; while it might seem useless, it's definitely not necessary. The male and female leads have a great relationship and work together to contribute to the country.
I haven't finished reading it yet, but I really like the male and female leads in this novel. It's not the typical formula where the man is tall, strong, and tough on the outside, but gentle and tender towards the woman. The male lead in this novel is refined and considerate towards the woman; it's rare to see this type of male lead. Anyway, I really like him, haha 😃.
It's incredibly good! Although it's a novel about everyday family life, the author's writing is truly superb. It makes you want to keep reading, the story is delicate, and the writing is fantastic. If I could only give it five stars, I feel like five stars wouldn't be enough.
It looks great! First of all, the female lead's identity is quite novel; it's the first time I've seen a female lead who is a nun who came down from the mountain and returned to secular life. Then there's the female lead's innate wood-based spiritual energy. Initially, the synopsis said this wood-based ability was rather useless, but when I read the main text, I thought it was alright.
I read it all in one go, and it was quite well written. Although the senior sister's character died quite late, she didn't really disgust anyone (not in terms of her moral values, but in terms of causing trouble for the female lead). She only made a few tamperings, and they didn't really affect the female lead much (if I remember correctly).
At first glance, the plot seemed mediocre because the protagonist was born a nun, but it got better and better as you read on. Both the male and female leads are virgins, one transmigrates and the other is reborn; both were born into difficult circumstances and supported each other through hardship.
The novel is quite well-written; the male and female protagonists are caught in a time-travel and rebirth saga, spanning the past and future, and ultimately become a couple. The epilogue only reveals that they met with the father and learned the mother's whereabouts, but it didn't delve deeper into the story, which is indeed a pity.
