I’ve Read Over a Thousand Books, but Only Six Made It Onto My Shelf. I’m Extremely Picky, So Recommend Me Something Good
A Breath of Fresh Air in the Period-novel Genre, with Original Twists. I'm Done with Those Overused Plots
The story should fit the period setting. No fake aristocrats, no making women weak, no following the army to the countryside, no divorce, no over-the-top business ventures, and no cold-faced, rugged men who can't have children. Even the titles are embarrassing enough to make me cringe.

It's a great read, a truly satisfying read with a fast pace and no unnecessary dialogue. The way the villains are dealt with is also quick and efficient. The fact that there's no romantic pairing and the elderly woman isn't given a twilight romance is a nice touch. Highly recommended.
It's a good read. After the female lead is reborn, she settles all scores. Although the process is infuriating, the ending is good. Those who deserve punishment basically get what they deserve. Shen Qin and his father Shen Xingguo are truly the worst of the worst. Apart from Shen Xingguo living too long, they don't have any other flaws.
This is a truly high-quality elderly woman among those who write about elderly women. She's incredibly decisive; if she says she won't give money, she doesn't give it; if she says she'll sever ties, she sever ties. There was absolutely no dragging things out. Excellent.
Five-star review! 👍👍👍👍👍 The content is fantastic! [Top post][Top post][Top post][Top post][Top post] Worth reading! 😎😎😎😎😎
This is the most satisfying of all the old lady rebirth stories I've read. When I was following this one, I was reading several similar old lady stories at the same time, and the others were all awful, but this one was different. The old lady's attitude towards her ex-husband with children was firm from beginning to end, and she tormented them so much that they had no chance to fight back. She almost crushed them in one fell swoop, while the old lady herself lived a carefree and happy life.
So awesome! I love it so much, keep it up! 🤭
It was very satisfying; the female lead's actions were quite realistic, and the revenge was swiftly executed.
A straightforward old lady with strong moral principles; a quirky family; a refreshing and funny story, definitely worth reading.
3.5 stars. Worth reading if you're looking for something to read. The early parts about divorce, severing ties, and cutting off relationships were a mix of exhilarating and frustrating. The female lead is too refined; her insults and physical altercations are light and easy, lacking real power. Sometimes she doesn't know when to yell or hit, and sometimes she doesn't.
It's a super satisfying novel. Although it features an old lady who is reborn, she's a hundred times better than other female protagonists. She's decisive and not a saint, and she never lets herself feel stifled. Moreover, it's realistic and fast-paced. It's just that those awful characters seem to be under a spell and refuse to admit their mistakes.
