    This is a super good period drama. The female protagonist is reborn and uses her husband's construction earnings to buy a house in the city. Then she buys some stocks and becomes rich overnight. She continues to buy houses, gets demolished, opens shops selling clothes, home appliances, and jewelry, buys demolished courtyard houses, and buys land in the south to build houses for rent. She becomes rich again. It's a period drama about "training" her husband. The writing, language, and logic are all very good. It's a very enjoyable read. There aren't many truly awful characters, and they are all vividly portrayed. [Laughs]

    Recently, I've been particularly fond of historical fiction with systems or spatial abilities. Below are some I've read from cover to cover without skipping any chapters. The first one I'm currently reading is good so far, and it's not a formulaic story. The second one is pure action-packed fun. The third one has high ratings, so you can tell it's good; don't be put off by the title. The fourth, fifth, and sixth ones have relatively novel content and are quite enjoyable. The seventh one is the first of its kind I've read, and the only one I've reread; I haven't removed it from my bookshelf yet. These are my recommendations!
