    A heartwarming slice-of-life story. The female lead is very beautiful, and the male lead falls in love with her at first sight, quickly finding a matchmaker to propose marriage. The female lead is intelligent and has high emotional intelligence. Although she is also career-oriented, she isn't the typical domineering female lead; she spends most of her time enjoying life and spending time with her baby. Mainly, the male lead comes from a wealthy family and doesn't lack money, so he doesn't stop her from doing whatever she wants and paves the way for her. The female lead is well aware of this, so she often acts coquettishly towards the male lead and praises his abilities. The couple has a baby named Pangdun, who is incredibly cute. The author excels at depicting heartwarming everyday moments, making the reader feel as if they are watching Pangdun grow up and witnessing the happy life of three generations of the family.

    This period drama is incredibly good! It depicts everyday family life, the mundane routines of daily life, with no stepmothers, a military marriage, or revenge. The female lead is intelligent, works hard to get into a vocational school, and refuses to go to the countryside. The rating is a bit low because there aren't many reviewers. It mainly focuses on the warm and cozy daily life of the main family. Its strength lies in its incredibly realistic portrayal of the era. This is the most detailed depiction of the historical setting I've read on Tomato (a Chinese online literature platform). Prices are reasonable and precise, down to the cents or the number of tickets. The details are meticulously researched, and there aren't many awful characters. It feels like you're truly living in that era. The only downside is the slow pace; there isn't much romance yet. You can read it as a period drama combined with a farming/developmental story.
