    A period drama, military marriage! The male lead is a complete scoundrel, but I have to say he did a good job beating people up; it was very satisfying. His parents are awful; they beat up his older brother whenever they see him. It's their fault for favoring the older brother. The story focuses on their sore spots. The female lead is a street urchin, lazy and unwilling to endure any hardship.

    Synopsis: The first book features a male protagonist who is a soldier and a female protagonist who was sent to the countryside as an educated youth. This is a rebirth novel; the female protagonist possesses a spatial ability, and her younger brother is also reborn. The second book features a male protagonist from a farm and a female protagonist who transmigrates to escape famine. At the beginning, the female protagonist is a bit unreasonable, but she becomes much better later on. She also possesses a spatial ability—or rather, a kind of space—with a computer inside, allowing her to chat with her grandfather from another timeline. It's unclear whether her grandfather will also transmigrate later on. In short, these two articles are very good; you should check them out.
