Reader note

I'm still following the first book. I prefer the heroine's mother and fourth brother. It has a very warm family atmosphere, but I don't like the hero's family background, which is too chaotic. The second book tells the story of a new daughter-in-law in a courtyard house. They are all short-lived, but very sweet. The third book, this one is really super good-looking. The whole family is the "protagonist of the novel", refined egoists, and don't have to be too narrow-minded. It's so fun for the family to compete with each other.

The first book is about someone who comes from the countryside to the city and works for others in the city. She has a golden finger. The heroine is sober and not love-minded. In the second book, the heroine travels to a working-class family, and after arriving, she looks for a job in the city. She is not scheming at all, but she is thoughtful. The heroine in the third book came from the countryside to the city. She is extremely strong and now has beauty. The language and plot are particularly interesting.

It's super, super good-looking. I've read more than 90 chronicle books, and this one is the best. The writing is delicate and true, and the golden fingers are not exaggerated. It's very immersive, has a strong sense of life, and is super detailed about shopping and other things. I hope it will be a super long ivi with a thousand chapters.

The heroine's IQ and EQ are as high as the ceiling, and the sieve becomes the essence! The best is a dog-leg, and revenge will not last overnight! Replace resources, figure out people's hearts, make suggestions, take part-time jobs one after another, and count the eighty-eight salaries until my hands cramp.

The more low-key the title, the better it is! I recommend a book that has no routines, no system, no cheats, no time travel, no rebirth, no superpowers, no pretense, no AI, no nothing. It relies entirely on wonderful storylines and pure human hands. ~

She wears books. Travel into a period novel with a timeline starting from the 1960s. Keywords: stepmother raising a baby + military marriage + rough guy + best slap in the face + cool writing. They are all popular elements nowadays. However, she is not the heroine, but a small supporting role with a very small role - the male protagonist's cannon fodder ex-wife. The ex-wife was a capitalist eldest daughter, but because she had a conflict with her first love, she married the male protagonist who was a military officer with a mud-legged background. After marriage, the two people's lifestyles and concepts were completely different. The ex-wife disliked the male protagonist for being brutal, rude and uncultured. It wasn't until the first love divorced that the ex-wife's stagnant heart finally changed and she started to divorce.

🔥🔥The heroine bid farewell to the bustling city, resolutely sold her job and house, took away the trivial things in life, and went to the countryside in style after reporting her stepfather. During her years in the countryside, her story is like a gorgeous picture, unfolding slowly, with tears and laughter, bitterness and sweetness, which will definitely make you immersed in it.

There is another book originally, but it seems that it is not on Tomato. In that book, the protagonist works on a train, and then writes newspapers and novels. For this one, I can barely do it.
