Shocking! I Became a Fake Bestie in the 1970s, and Wits Are Keeping Me Alive

Well, to put it simply, none of them are kind characters. It's disguised as a period drama, with its scheming and plot twists, but there isn't a single good person. The female lead, supposedly the protagonist, feels more like an observer. It's alright, I guess. I hope the female lead gets a happy ending instead of an endless loop-like ending, because I suddenly have this feeling.

Everyone's a villain 🍉 So, is there a male lead? [What][What]

Once you reach chapter 120, you can practically end this book. The rest follows the classic tropes of period dramas: the protagonist enters an agricultural research institute, studies agronomy, serves the country, and who knows, maybe a male lead will appear—either a superior, a fellow scientist, or they'll hit it off during a social gathering.

I admire the protagonist's style of doing things, but I'm also worried that someone might notice the flaws once they calm down. So the protagonist is constantly playing the time gap. It feels like the protagonist is playing a live-action murder mystery game, where everyone has their own calculations. After reading for so long, I haven't seen many normal people. The village doctor is also quite clever. If you like this kind of story, you can check it out...

I've seen the latest chapter, but I'll have to wait a bit longer. The bad guys in the story will reap what they sow, and the oppressed women will escape their suffering—that's good. Those who read period novels know that era; the author depicted the demotion of some bad guys. Many good people were persecuted in that time; it's good that everyone is a villain.

It's good and very interesting. The female lead pretends to be invisible, but in reality, she's behind every tragedy. Do you really think she did nothing? Use your brain! The whole family in the story, though wicked, are intelligent, flesh-and-blood individuals with their own interests and stances. Their constant infighting is very entertaining.

I've finished reading it, and overall it's pretty good. The female lead's reactions are quite quick. At the beginning, with just one line, "Did you just speak?", She realizes her thoughts have been overheard. She then uses these thoughts to convey what she wants her adoptive parents to know, giving herself enough time to grow.

What I admire most about the female lead is her caution; she never underestimates anyone, including her children. I also admire her clear-headedness; she never shows mercy to anyone and remains wary of everyone. The only slight regret is her romantic life, but if I were to suggest she balance love, children, housework, and career, I would still envy her choice.

The female lead is very rational. She reveals her true feelings at the beginning and quickly resolves conflicts to achieve a favorable situation for herself. The best part is that her "golden finger" (a special ability or advantage) serves her without resorting to poverty alleviation; she subtly stirs up conflicts among various parties, making herself transparent and facilitating her later escape from the Jiang family.

That's just how it is in the countryside. It's all about the law of the jungle, backstabbing and scheming against each other for a little bit of profit. Even now that living standards have improved, people still fight. It was even more excessive when people were starving.
