   The first book has very positive values. At first glance, you might think it has a cliché plot, but it doesn't. This is related to the author's writing style; she likes to reveal all the truths at the end. I originally wanted to talk about the specific plot, but it's been too long since I read it, and I've forgotten some details. For example, the male lead learns that because of a small act of kindness, a boy has been paying attention to and liking him (the author didn't explicitly say so, but I think it's liking [shy]). The male lead doesn't feel disgusted or anything; instead, he feels honored and grateful because he had a very difficult childhood and always thought he was unloved and bullied. Another example is a scholar who abandons his future and teams up with a male prostitute to avenge a prostitute. The scholar doesn't admit that he likes the girl; he says he... He did this simply to uphold justice. At the time, I thought it was just a scholar being arrogant and unwilling to be known by the world as someone who had loved a prostitute, thinking that saying so would make him seem more scholarly and principled. Actually, he felt he wasn't worthy of loving that girl because the male prostitute who joined him in revenge (if it weren't for revenge, this male prostitute wouldn't have had the will to live and would have committed suicide to follow the girl) also loved her. In the end, the male prostitute also lost his life. He felt that compared to this male prostitute, his love was nothing and didn't deserve to be known by the world. In fact, he himself truly loved her very much [crying]. However, this is a metaphysical novel, and both the male and female protagonists are purely ancient people. If you don't like this type of story, please don't read it [heart emoji]. The second book is a time-travel/farming story, but the female lead actually travels from the ancient world to the modern world as a child, learns medicine, and then travels back to the present. Her family is very kind, and her neighbors are also nice (though there are definitely some bad ones, but they are a small percentage). The female lead herself is kind but also clear-headed, not a saint (after all, she has lived in the modern world and is very sensitive to doctor-patient disputes). Her values ​​are very upright, and many of her arguments and perspectives are unexpected. The male lead is also a normal person (I mean, with normal values). However, it's still being updated, so I don't know if there will be any plot holes later. The writing style is quite humorous. The third book is about a female lead who is reborn and genuinely studies diligently throughout. She doesn't develop any ambiguous feelings or entanglements with any man. She is truly focused on her studies, and whenever a man appears, it's just for discussion. Believe me, this isn't just a romance disguised as an exam preparation book! I read up to early July, but haven't read the rest yet. I want to save it up until it's finished. Anyway, I haven't figured out who the male lead is yet. I guess he'll just be mentioned briefly at the end. The author is probably looking for someone with a soulmate, or maybe there isn't even a male lead at all! Anyway, now I feel like no one is good enough for our female lead! She should just go and achieve her ambitions. The writing is alright, and you can see the growth of each character.

    👉👉👉 Excellent book!!! A comprehensive textbook on Bazi (Four Pillars of Destiny), Liuyao (Six Lines), and Plum Blossom Divination. I know nothing about fortune telling, but I learned a lot from this book. 👍 The protagonist, Lin Haiyang, is interested in metaphysics and begins his journey → enters the field → becomes proficient → gains enlightenment. A child from an ordinary family, he works a demanding three-shift miner job. Frustration, depression, and exhaustion are his daily routine. To change his fate, Lin Haiyang begins to self-study fortune telling, buying books, studying, and taking notes repeatedly. He gradually starts by telling fortunes for those around him, accumulating knowledge and practice. Through daily accumulation and practical experience, Lin Haiyang continuously verifies, revises, and expands upon the knowledge in the books. After seven or eight years of continuous study and practical experience, he finally achieves mastery. 🔅 His strong knowledge base and the principles of conduct he gleaned from the I Ching became the levers that propelled him forward steadily, from a small county town to a city, and eventually to a provincial capital… I don't understand fortune telling or other such knowledge, but I learned many principles of conduct from the book. Changing one's destiny must begin from within; the so-called self-improvement leads to the improvement of others, and personal strength is the only true principle. 🍎 Humility and adaptability allowed Lin Haiyang to thrive in his work. Young and talented yet humble, he was considerate of others and careful with his words. Especially his beautiful and intellectually inclined wife made the book sweet and heartwarming. ㊗️ We are all on the path, and no matter how you enter it, I hope you begin with the basics and end with enlightenment… Blessings to all!

    This is the first unpublished book I've ever read that I want to collect and reread multiple times. It vividly portrays the warmth and affection of rural life, genuine emotions, love, hate, and everything in between. It's currently being serialized and has no rating yet, but I'd give it a 98 out of 100!

    The "Pet of Power" series from June is a classic. Following the timeline, I read "Pet of Power in the Capital" first, then "Pet of Power in the World." Personally, I think "Pet of Power in the World" is truly well-written. It has moments that are heartbreaking enough to bring tears to your eyes, and moments that are hilarious enough to make you laugh out loud. The characters are very well-developed, each one a vivid and relatable figure, and the language is very moving. The novel conveys a deep sense of patriotism and brotherhood with great subtlety. The way the five-person couple interacts, their values, and even their parenting philosophies are all very positive. The epilogue is also excellent, connecting "The World" and "The Capital" through flashbacks. When I saw the epilogue finale, I was truly reluctant to say goodbye.
