   Reader note

   It's a period novel that I like very much. The male protagonist becomes good to the female protagonist slowly, and he gets better step by step. The heroine has a super good personality and is not weak. After reading the whole book, I felt that the male protagonist was not worthy of the female protagonist, because the female protagonist was too good, with a good personality, a good family background, and good knowledge. The male protagonist graduated from elementary school, and later the female protagonist took the college entrance examination. The male protagonist was still unwilling until he saw the gap with the female protagonist's family with his own eyes, and then he slowly changed and started to learn knowledge and do business.
