It's better than any of the time travel imperial examination novels I've read recently, and I like the writing style better. The character of the sister-in-law may be trying to create a straightforward and unscheming character, but I always feel that it is a bit inconsistent with the background of the ancient daughter-in-law. Wasn't it all feudal and filial piety in ancient times? It's reasonable for the sister-in-law to dislike the male protagonist, the sick brother-in-law, and feel that this is a drag. She understands, but when her father-in-law and mother-in-law were beaten and complained, she directly complained to the male protagonist. She was still married in a famine year with very little money and her parents were not able to do anything. Moreover, the male protagonist's parents were relatively capable and well-off families in the village. Her behavior did not seem to take her parents-in-law seriously. She was more like a mother-in-law than the male protagonist's mother. Moreover, the male protagonist's parents did not talk about her. I like the others very much. After reading three chapters, I came here to rate it. Haha. Also, there are too few chapters. [Crying] There are only about 30 chapters. I want to read them in a few months at least if I want to enjoy them. [Crying]
Coming from the short drama, there were too many conflicts. After reading the original novel, I found that the novel is still good-looking and the plot is attractive. It is the best imperial examination essay I have seen so far. Compared with other cool essays that show talent and poetry, the male protagonist of this book is more steady and steady. It is in line with the actual situation of ordinary people who travel through time. Moreover, the male protagonist's family is so funny. I cried and laughed at times, and the plot did not fall into a cliche. Damn it, I spent a whole day reading it all before I realized it was still being updated. The male protagonist has not yet passed the top exam. Can the author please hurry up?
It's very, very good-looking. The male protagonist's family helps each other, and they are brothers and sisters. I think many people say that it's because the sister-in-law avoids lightning. But in this book, the most profound thing is that the sister-in-law has a sharp tongue and a soft heart. She only has a few words on her lips. The more you look at it, the better it gets.
Great book, the best book I have read so far this year. The plot is exciting and keeps people watching, and the pace is appropriate and steady. The character descriptions are quite good, and every character who appears has flesh and blood. The most important thing is that the emotional portrayal is very, very delicate! The daily warmth of the family, the friendship between friends and classmates, and the concern of the teachers and seniors are all written in a very detailed and empathetic way, especially the desperate support between family members, which is really touching. Through this, the characters were successfully brought to life. These people are not just tools to promote the plot, but real people living in the world of the book.
It is a very interesting article. Unlike some other imperial examination articles, the plot is not protracted, the writing rhythm is smooth, the writing style is also good, and the male protagonist is also good. And it can be seen that the author is also actively listening to the comments in the comment area for improvement and improvement. Some key plot points are still hoped for by the author according to his original conception. You cannot satisfy everyone. Everyone should be more lenient and give the author more suggestions for improvement, but don't scold the author. A new writer has done a good job writing like this. I like this book very much. Come on, the author, keep writing and update more. I will always support it. (As a aside, if the male protagonist insists on getting married in the future, can there be a female protagonist who is less troubled, more settled, and doesn't have so many descriptions? She still likes to watch the male protagonist pursue his career)
It's really good-looking, wow, wow, wow, there is no golden finger, just the limited knowledge in the protagonist's head. Everyone is lifting Mingyuan to see a higher and farther world, and Mingyuan will always remember everyone. Every character has flesh and blood, and Saburo is too ambitious, from the emaciated young man who is unknown and standing outside a private school to study, to the golden scholar who beats a horse and parades through the streets, from the windy sands of the northwest border to the magnificent capital, and then to the dangerous treasure island. What are you thinking about? Standing on the broken tower of Hangzhou Mansion, will you think of your mother's tears and Huniu's child? Are you afraid that you will never be able to eat the noodles made by Gou Wa again? Are you afraid that your family will shed tears when they see the body wrapped in horse leather? Are you afraid that your eldest brother's father will have scars on his body? Are you afraid that Jiangnan, who failed to keep it, betrayed the trust of two generations of emperors? Mingyuan, you are really competitive and competitive.
The author's writing style is very fluent and elegant, and the food part is so well written that it makes people want to read it (the author may consider starting a food article). It is very immersive for me. The ideas are good and very innovative, especially the poetry accumulation book, which is so fun. This book ranks high among the imperial examination papers I have read. I like the characters in it very much, especially the family and classmates. The writing is very warm and makes me feel warm when I read it. I hope the author will stick to it and not stop updating. It is best to update more often! ! (PS: I beg the author that the main character must pass the 6-yuan mark. I have already read the novel. I just want it to be cool [shy])
Not bad, not bad 👍, the description is very detailed, and there is a little bit of humor. I feel really happy to see the black bear family slowly getting better and better. As long as you work hard, there will be a future.
Very nice! This score is not worthy of this article. The author describes the emotions very delicately, and every emotional turn of the male protagonist is superbly written. I don't think it's like an online novel, but like the long serialized novels in the literary magazines I read when I was a kid. It's super good! It's good-looking and the logic is super online. Every time the male protagonist wants to improve his family environment, he will consider whether he can protect the business.
It's a very good book. The poisonous point in the middle is the Lin family. I would have stopped reading that part. It was really frustrating to read. I really don't know what the author was thinking. If you want to arrange a heroine, can it be completely lovable? But the subsequent plot is really great. During the Taiwan section, my emotions are ups and downs with the story. I look forward to the follow-up development. Having said that, the author's writing about family relationships is really touching. The family has the charm of a group portrait. The author keeps writing, and I will add one star to you after you finish it.
