Transmigration to the Late Qing and Early Republican Era
Stories about people transmigrating to this period always have them refusing to take even a needle or thread from the people, treating officers and soldiers as equals, and acting all meek even when they have a System. They won't even build up their forces and carve out their own territory. What gives? Are they trying to fast-forward the timeline in another world straight to socialism?
Urban Fantasy with Gender-Bender Transformation
Looking for something like I Became an Heiress Running from an Arranged Marriage and Started Livestreaming in the Ghost Realm. Urban supernatural fiction. Though the author tells the story through episodic, instance-based arcs, they go to great lengths to avoid making it feel formulaic. The characters stay in character, the setting and logic hold up, and it's a rare, wonderfully bizarre read.

It's rare to find a book about the Zhu family. I've watched the TV series dozens of times, and for the past twenty years, I've watched "Crossing the Guandong" several times every winter. Leaving aside its innovation, just following the plot, I imagine the fourth son improving the family's situation, preventing the second son's death, preventing Zhen Sanjiang's death, building a force, becoming…
Many TV dramas I've watched have been adapted into fan fiction, and they've all been surprisingly good. Thumbs up. I've seen many comments saying the timeline doesn't match the original drama, but since it's an adaptation of a novel, it's fine as long as it's roughly the same. Anyway, it seems to have all the characters I wanted, and the plot is engaging; I can keep watching.

The plot is a time-travel story, with a system to make up for past regrets, which goes without saying. What's remarkable is the writing style—clean, concise, simple, and beautiful. The language also largely matches the character's traits, creating a strong sense of immersion for the character in the TV series.
It's really well written, and the storyline is very immersive. It's just a shame that Xian'er can't be paired up with the main character.
I was raising them while watching them, but to be honest, it wasn't very satisfying! Having read books for over twenty years, I can confidently say that this is currently my absolute favorite book by Tomato, bar none. It's just right for me, and it's fantastic! Keep it up, author! Stay home as much as possible and write more! 🤭🤭🤭
Okay, okay, okay
It's good, although I occasionally feel there are traces of AI, and the text doesn't always match up. But you can basically tell it's your own writing, probably just some polishing. It's a pity that the second half has nothing to do with "Crossing the Guandong" anymore; it's about the protagonist's experiences in the Northeast Army, and he seems rather frustrated and powerless. It's like his "golden finger" (advantageous character) has disappeared.
A rare find among fanfiction about crossing the Guandong region; I managed to keep reading. Keep it up, author!
Why is the rating so low when it's so well-written?
