The character design in this story is the best I've seen among stories about elderly women being reborn. Only an elderly woman's rebirth makes sense! The others are either love-struck in their past lives, getting tricked, deceived, and betrayed! Or they're sexist, resulting in a bunch of ungrateful wretches in their old age!
I looked around and didn't see any low-rated reviews, so it's strange that the rating is so low 😳 It's a good book, well-written, detailed, vivid, and even a little touching.
It's a great watch. The plot is very slice-of-life and written with great detail. The characters are very well-developed. Many small details are handled well; the mother-in-law seems like a superwoman, which also fits the image of a woman from that era. The daughter-in-law is slightly awkward, but kind and stubborn. As for the son, he's just a tool, it's a pity he has a mouth.
This is a very meaningful rebirth story. The mother, son, and daughter-in-law are all wonderful people. Because of a misunderstanding, in their previous life, the mother was forced to do a mission for the country, which led to the destruction of her son and the death of her family. Because of their rebirth, they can all have a happy ending. This is what makes it so meaningful.
A very heartwarming, ordinary yet somewhat grand novel. There are almost no awful characters; reading this will keep you smiling. Please update soon, author! 🤭
This novel is truly captivating. There are no dramatic, face-slapping moments, but it portrays a mother-in-law's unwavering support for her son, daughter-in-law, and grandson; an elder's care for the younger generation; and a group of people striving for their country.
This is an excellent book with very positive values. It portrays simplicity, diligence, courage, resilience, and an indomitable spirit that is truly moving! To live a fulfilling life, one must learn to be tolerant of oneself, acting within one's capabilities while also seizing opportunities to push one's limits.
It's great, very heartwarming. There aren't any particularly powerful characters, but it just has a very comforting feel and makes you want to keep reading. Author, keep up the good work, update soon!
This is really well written. Of all the period dramas I've read, this is the only one that doesn't rely on some kind of superhuman plot device that makes it impossible to stop. The main character, an elderly woman, feels incredibly real, just like the aunties around us—hardworking, simple, and with strong moral values. Keep up the good work, author!
This old lady's character is fantastic—always energetic and lively, the kind of simple, kind, down-to-earth, and hardworking elderly woman. The author's writing is also excellent; from the beginning to the point where I was eagerly awaiting more chapters, there wasn't a single part that made me want to stop reading.
