    This is a transmigration novel, and although there are minor changes to the original female lead, the positive and negative aspects of her personality are portrayed very clearly. It's important to emphasize that it wasn't changed to the point of completely destroying moral values. It's a period drama, and the rural setting is realistically depicted. The female lead is content to live her own life; she's discreet and doesn't steal other people's luck. She has a clear and realistic self-awareness, and she's strong when necessary—not someone to be easily bullied.

    The first book features a female protagonist with exceptional eloquence and a knack for persuasion. She holds part-time jobs in numerous factories and communes, securing orders and boosting the local economy. Her grandmother is particularly charming, completely controlling her crybaby maternal grandmother. There's a romantic pairing and a cheat-like advantage. The second book features a female protagonist who transmigrates into an unlucky supporting character. Her family is cunning and ruthless; none of the women are easy to deal with. The male protagonist is chosen by the female protagonist through a public audition and has minimal screen time. It's a short story with a cheat-like advantage. The third book features a female protagonist who transmigrates into the grandmother's generation. She has several sons, many grandchildren, and her husband is deceased.

    A rural setting in a bygone era, filled with adultery and scandalous affairs, adapted from real-life events, depicting everyday family life with vivid and well-developed characters. The writing is delicate and concise. It incorporates folk culture and local characteristics, presented logically and realistically, making it a worthwhile read. Also, I'd like to recommend a new book: a tale of love and hate in parallel worlds, entangled in quantum entanglement.
