    💖Book Recommendations by Xiaoguai💖 I've read too many historical novels featuring male protagonists, but these two are currently being serialized. Both feature male protagonists reborn in the 1970s. The stories are captivating, the characters are vivid, the details are realistic, and they have high ratings—definitely worth reading. 💛First Book💛 Before returning to the city after his rebirth, the male protagonist decisively tears up the transfer order, determined not to repeat his past life's trajectory and live the rest of his life in regret and pain. The main focus is on the male protagonist's seemingly superhuman abilities, mastering various skills, earning money to support his family, helping his village prosper, and assisting the country in research and development! A truly exhilarating read. The romance between the male and female leads is particularly appealing. The female lead is a native village girl, devoted to the male lead, and their daughter is an angelic little sweetheart, a beloved child. The female lead's family is united, hardworking, and free of eccentric characters. A very engaging story. 💛Second Book💛 The male protagonist is reborn and takes his younger sister to the Northeast as an educated youth sent to the countryside. The protagonist's journey to acquiring his cheat-like abilities is reminiscent of a martial arts novel where the protagonist finds a secret martial arts manual in a cave. It's a typical "power fantasy" story where the protagonist's journey is a series of overpowered events, with a distinct Northeastern flavor, focusing on earning money to support his family and slapping down enemies. The story is well-structured, with strong visual details and a realistic feel.
