Honestly, this is a very good imperial examination novel. It's heartwarming, and the male lead doesn't overdo it with showing off or using poetry. From the beginning of the examinations to becoming a third-ranked scholar, his journey is steady and solid. There are no earth-shattering feats like achieving the highest rank in the imperial examinations, but it's still very enjoyable!
This is a story brimming with family love. Each chapter allows readers to feel the care and concern between people, from the love of elders for younger generations, to the filial piety of the younger generation for their elders, to the helping hand extended by the capable to others. It perfectly interprets the principle of "cultivating one's own virtue when poor, and helping others when rich." Reading this book will warm your heart. A good book, highly recommended!
I think it's well-written. It doesn't have the typical time-traveling genius who effortlessly becomes a top scholar, whose intellect crushes everyone else, treating all ancient people like fools. It's unlike other time-traveling characters who amass wealth with a single idea and become invincible on their own. It's particularly good and realistic; I enjoyed reading it.
It's well-written and generally rigorous, with occasional minor flaws that aren't major issues. The most important aspect is the detailed portrayal of relationships between villagers and their in-laws. There are no truly awful characters, only differing perspectives.
Those who enjoy everyday family dramas might find this interesting. The haggling over the price of the oxcart is quite reasonable, earning me an extra star; unlike others who haggle over 1 tael at a time. I haven't watched it for over half a year. The plot is weaker after I started reading, the cases are more similar, the writing is more disorganized, and the settings aren't rigorous. It leans towards a female-oriented genre.
Super good! The neighborly relations in the ancient village are described in great detail. Our little male protagonist is also very clever and quick-witted. His parents are harmonious and loving, and although they occasionally have disagreements, he always manages to resolve them. It's very entertaining, not monotonous or boring. Highly recommended!
It's so good, really! The family scenes are so heartwarming. Although there are a few oddities, overall it's wonderful. It's really beautiful, the more I look, the more I love it. It's just that the updates are too slow. Please, I've already read it all, please update with more pictures! 🥺 I absolutely love it! This kind of unique style is so rare! 👍👍
It's good, the plot is exciting, and it would be best if there was no female lead, and the protagonist single-handedly builds a powerful and wealthy family.
The family life depicted is so heartwarming! The beginning of their family of five's life was truly adorable! I've been really into imperial examination novels lately, but I have a bit of a problem: I don't like novels with female leads, or if they do, I want them to appear later and not have too many romantic subplots (of course, this is just a personal preference, I don't have any demands!).
It's really good! 😄 I love the male lead's parents' personalities. I hope the female lead isn't one of those traditional princesses, noble ladies, or rich young women from romance novels; I'm sick of seeing those.
