No golden finger, no pocket dimension, no System, and only a small amount of romance. After being reborn, the heroine changes her fate through hard work and study, eventually becoming an outstanding medical student at a military academy.
In her previous life, Lin Yuehua dropped out of school at just twelve to work. At fifteen, she went south to work in a factory. At twenty, she defied her parents and married a faithless man. At twenty-one, after giving birth, she went straight back to work. At thirty-four, she returned to her hometown, running a street stall while caring for her whole family. At thirty-nine, the day after her son finished his college entrance exams, she was divorced, and her son went to live with his father. She had spent half her life working herself to the bone and had nothing to show for it but a body full of ailments.
She never imagined she would get the chance to live again! In this life, watch as Lin Yuehua seizes every opportunity to study hard, turns her fortunes around against all odds, and lives a completely different life!
This is a very realistic book. The rural and school life depicted in it feels like it actually happened. This novel isn't a wish-fulfillment story; the female protagonist, aside from being reborn, doesn't have any special advantages or extraordinary luck, and isn't the kind of person who succeeds at everything.
It's a good story. Very rational and inspiring, about making up for regrets from a past life. This family that favors sons over daughters is very similar to my mother's. It's very patriarchal here. It's not that they don't love their daughters, it's just that their sons are more important.
Finished reading on June 9, 2025. It's a fairly inspiring rebirth novel; the female protagonist works hard to rise from a remote mountain village and ultimately changes her destiny. One of the stories has a happy ending… Although the parents' preference for sons is hard to accept, it's a realistic portrayal of life… The female protagonist isn't a completely saintly or shameless character; for example, her attitude towards her grandfather… Worth reading! 👍👍👍
This is the first time I've seen a female protagonist reborn not to pursue a career, but to focus on her studies 🤭 It's just endless exams 🤦 I stayed up all night to finish it, and I couldn't help but tear up a few times. It's very well written and very realistic.
It's so good! It's exceptionally well-written. I was having a reading slump these past few days, and then I found this amazing book! Please update more often! 👍👍💕💕
It's very inspiring; watching it ignited my fighting spirit.
I also dropped out of junior high school in the first semester of 1993 😢🥺
It's alright, but the sentences aren't particularly elegant or fluent.
It's very inspiring; it showed the lives of families in the past that favored sons over daughters, and the female protagonist's independence and strength! I wish there were more epilogues; the ending felt a bit rushed.
The book, titled "Striving for Self-Improvement," is entirely focused on exams and is well worth reading for senior high school students.
