The female lead is the pillar of her family, not a saint. The male lead is a cute puppy she adopted. It's a strong woman/weak man dynamic. After he goes crazy, he only has eyes for the female lead, and there's no scheming female supporting character (there's a princess who hates the female lead [staring][staring][staring], but it's not a tragic love story between the male lead and the princess…
The romance storyline is quite well written. The only thing I don't understand is why the revenge only targets the woman and not the man? Is it because the King of Qin is the husband's biological father? The King of Qin's actions are no less serious than the fake princess's. He didn't seem to suffer or hesitate for very long, and he didn't even seem to have any hatred or desire for revenge.
It's alright. What I like best is that the female supporting characters' feelings for the male lead aren't due to sudden infatuation; the princess's feelings stem from stealing his life-saving grace; and the later one is trying to escape her blood-sucking family. It's short, with no major flaws—the most problematic ones are already mentioned in the synopsis—but I can still tolerate them.
Wen Xian and Su Jiang, it's quite a good read, simple and understated. The only part I didn't like was the Shui Xiu part. I felt Chang Song was a good person, so I didn't understand why he married her. And Shui Xiu did have ulterior motives; how could the female lead tolerate it? Why couldn't Uncle Fu? Uncle Fu even redeemed himself through his deeds.
Overall, it's not bad. The female lead is decisive, independent, and clear-headed, while the male lead is a total love-struck idiot and clingy. It seems this "love-struck" trait is more appealing on men (.). The author's writing is decent, but the plot feels a bit lacking. Although it's a farming story, the parts about everyday family life aren't engaging enough, making it feel a bit drawn out.
This book has a moderate number of chapters, not too long. The relationship between the male and female protagonists is well-developed. There are no cheat codes or plot devices, so the story is very logical and worth reading.
Got a good night's sleep, time to get up and write! ✍🏻
The female protagonist is intelligent and responsible, and should have lived a life of wealth and luxury. However, she is robbed, indirectly losing her father and living a life of poverty. She sells pastries on the streets and eventually becomes wealthy, where she meets the male protagonist, who is three years younger than her. The two fall in love, marry, and have a lovely baby.
It's visually appealing and fast-paced; I hope it gets a higher rating.
Take a good look
