   Mr. Jiang, a gentle and doting husband, is irresistible. He sews buttons with his wife, saves money to buy her bags, and even helps her open a spicy hot pot restaurant. He supports her in finding her family. Their interactions feel very natural, and the female lead is not at all awkward. Each stage of their relationship is vividly portrayed, and the more you read, the sweeter it gets. There are no special advantages; they rely entirely on their own efforts. They also have a son and a daughter, and their in-laws, sister-in-law, and brother are all very kind people. There's a small hiccup (with a female supporting character), but the male lead quickly resolves it. The scene where the female lead reunites with her family is truly satisfying. The two of them achieve a comfortable life through their own hard work!

    The first and second books are tied for my No. 1 Spot in period dramas. ① This one tells the story of a female protagonist who transmigrates into a book as a villainous supporting character and redeems the male protagonist, changing his life from a lonely, widowed existence. There are quite a few side stories. The male protagonist is the sweet-talking, lively type, not the reserved type; he usually speaks flirtatiously in an open way. He's exactly my type! The female protagonist is more laid-back and doesn't compete for anything. If you like strong, independent women, this isn't for you. ② I think the content of this period drama is quite realistic. The author writes well, and the romance between the male and female protagonists has both sweet and angsty moments (a little angst, a lot of sweetness). After finishing it, I felt unsatisfied and couldn't get over it. It's really good. The male protagonist is a high-ranking official, and the female protagonist is a strong, independent woman. The storyline is roughly like this: The female lead transmigrates into a book → The male lead falls in love with her → The two engage in a battle of wits (the female lead wants her body, the male lead wants her heart) → The female lead inherits her uncle's family business, but the male lead doesn't, leading to a breakdown in their relationship → They reconcile, have a baby, and live a sweet life together.
