   These are all period dramas, and they're all completed, so you can read them without worry. The first book involves the protagonist going back to his father's hometown, specifically his grandmother's, as a relative. The second book doesn't involve going to the countryside; the protagonist's family members are characters from various novels, and the female lead's mind is constantly filled with different plot ideas, avoiding becoming part of a melodramatic story [laughing][laughing]. The third book features a family that's the epitome of difficult relatives in period dramas—difficult to deal with by others, but very kind to their wife and children [thinking][thinking].
