   A fantastic period drama, I can personally attest to it, it's truly amazing! 💓💓💓 My first book!!! A genius medical student, Chu Yue, works overtime in the emergency room until she dies suddenly, only to wake up and find herself transported to a blended family in the 1970s. Her biological father is incompetent, her stepmother shrewd, her stepsister steals her university grades, and even her own brother is eyeing the family's only factory job. The whole family forces her to marry in place of her stepsister. "Lu Zhanlin has been in the army for ten years; he has connections everywhere. If you marry him, you'll be living the high life. Getting into university again is just a matter of a word from him." Such a dysfunctional family? She'd rather not have it! She marries him! No sooner has Chu Yue agreed to the marriage than her stepmother throws out a skinny, dirty child. It turns out that Lu Zhanlin is not only disfigured and disabled, but also has a burden—his sister's son. Lin Risheng seals the letter, sends it to the grave, and then empties the house—that's the end of it! 💓💓💓 My second book!!! Zhao Jinshu, a woman in her sixties who was preparing for a nationwide trip after her children had grown up and started their own families, was reborn. She was reborn a few months after arriving in the city. Back then, she was naive and shy, a young woman from the countryside, too proud to admit her mistakes and filled with inferiority. Even though her husband was a successful businessman, she felt inferior to her powerful in-laws, afraid of making a mistake and embarrassing her husband. For a long time, she didn't dare say a word, and she and her two children suffered a lot of grievances, both openly and secretly. Back in her youth, Zhao Jinshu was like an old cucumber painted green; no matter her outward appearance, she was still a tough nut to crack and couldn't pretend to be a shy young wife. Now that her children were grown and she had enjoyed many years of happiness, Zhao Jinshu wasn't sure how her second life would be different from her previous one. But there were a few things she was certain of. (This is a sad answer from a user named "B" with a string of seemingly random characters.) Jiang Zhi transmigrated into the body of the male lead's cannon fodder ex-wife in a period novel. The moment she opened her eyes, she found herself in the middle of a massive elopement. Sorry, it wasn't too bad; she tore the scumbag apart and decisively took her child to join the army. Everyone in the military compound knew that Lu Qingyan had brought his wife of five years back from the countryside. Nobody seemed to care; how could a country bumpkin be worthy of Lu Qingyan? They'd probably divorce her. One day, a delicate beauty suddenly appeared in the army, breathtakingly beautiful. Amidst everyone's astonished gazes, Jiang Zhi walked straight up to Lu Qingyan and sweetly called him "Husband." ??? Wasn't his wife supposed to be a country bumpkin, so ugly she was ashamed to show her face? Who is this person?

    ① This is a slow-paced, period drama. The male and female leads are both very strong. The male lead is the female lead's brother's comrade-in-arms, while the female lead focuses on her career. From her family to the military region, to Beijing, and then to the world, she eventually becomes a diplomat. They both protect their country in their own ways. It's quite good. ② This book focuses on the female lead's career. The male lead is an economics professor. The female lead wins him over with her culinary skills. Later, she juggles both her career and studies. It's also worth reading! ③ This is a book I read before. The female lead is very strong, and the male lead only develops a romantic relationship with her after protecting her. It's alright. ④ This one is super good! I highly recommend it to anyone interested in career-oriented stories! The female lead is incredibly shrewd and calculating. She's very clever, but also very shrewd. She develops her career step by step, and later participates in foreign trade fairs, selling products to foreigners and increasing the country's foreign exchange reserves. It's super good! ⑤ This one is unfinished, but it's quite good. The female lead's whole family transmigrates into the book; her parents were wealthy before, and after transmigrating, they become professors. The male lead is in the army. There aren't many dramatic ups and downs, but it's very heartwarming. In the early stages, she focuses on her career, and later she juggles both her studies and career. ⑥ This one is also unfinished, but it's super good! I look forward to the updates every day! The female lead is a career woman, and the male lead is in the air force. There's not much romance; it mainly focuses on the female lead's career. From an ordinary person, she gets into a supply and marketing cooperative through her own abilities and then rises step by step. What's different is that the female lead has a purchasing agent system, unlike the storage systems in typical period novels. The writing is quite good; I recommend it!

    I truly love this book. The military-themed plot doesn't rush through, but it's still incredibly engaging. "In the past, travel was slow, and a lifetime was only enough to love one person." This story perfectly embodies that sentiment. It's rare to find a period novel so focused solely on the deep affection between the male and female leads, with almost no other problematic characters. The male lead is so sweet; I haven't seen a single flaw in him yet. He's deeply affectionate and warm, and even though his profession caused him to be absent from the female lead's life in the early stages, his love is palpable through letters and the small moments they share. The author is truly masterful.

    This is a historical romance novel, already completed. It's incredibly good. The female lead is a delicate and spoiled capitalist's daughter, a bit of a drama queen. Originally, she was supposed to be the cannon fodder ex-wife who died young in the book, but after being awakened by the comments, she refused to divorce the male lead and ended up following him to the army. It's a must-watch even if you stay up all night. Highly recommended.

    I highly recommend the fourth book. The female lead begs the two genius brothers to take her to join the army. She has the Party and the people in her heart, and the black words become increasingly red. The first two books are quite sweet, with many face-slapping scenes, which are very satisfying.
