    This is a really good new book. The female protagonist is reborn, but she doesn't have the God-like perspective of her past life; her life path in her previous life is different from her current one. She has a romantic subplot, but she focuses entirely on her career: initially growing and selling vegetables, she gradually researches and innovates her own pickles, constantly expanding into new money-making businesses… The protagonist is intelligent and cleverly resolves every crisis she encounters. The supporting characters also offer excellent suggestions and solutions; everyone has their own role and function. Every character in the book is well-developed, with their own strengths and weaknesses. The plot unfolds gradually and logically, and the writing is quite delicate. Highly recommended!!!

    🐏🐏 This novel perfectly blends the down-to-earth charm of farming life with sweet and romantic moments! [Flying kiss] The contrast between the fierce hunter and his doting husband is incredibly endearing, and the heroine's use of her medical skills to bring wealth to the entire village is incredibly satisfying. Even the mundane details of daily life are imbued with sweetness; the image of a rough man blushing as he warms his wife's hands is more touching than a domineering CEO's roses. #FarmingLifeNovelTOP #MarriedRomanceModel #ToughGuyTendernessIsMostDeadly
