   These are all my most treasured books, and they're all excellent. ① The female protagonist joins the military and pursues scientific research, using valuable knowledge from later generations to help her country grow stronger and more powerful; she possesses supernatural abilities. ② The female protagonist is reborn into a newborn body, possesses psychic abilities, is a late-life daughter, and develops technology to help the country become stronger. ③ Set in the 1950s, after experiencing three years of famine, the female protagonist is admitted to university, bringing honor to her parents; she has a spatial ability. ④ The female protagonist transmigrates into a book with a spatial ability; it's a story about raising a child, and the female protagonist maintains her original character setting; although she lives in the countryside, she has never worked in the fields. The female lead's mother-in-law isn't a terrible person either; she dotes on her grandchildren, and her character remains consistent. The female lead's children are very cute. ⑤ The female lead is a political figure in the 1970s, possessing a system-based cheat ability. She rises step by step from a lowly accountant to a high-ranking leader. ⑥ The female lead transmigrates into a child without any cheat abilities. She's lazy and needs to be carried even when walking, which is hilarious. Reading this novel is relaxing, and the female lead has good luck. ⑦ The female lead joins the military but is secretly a research genius with a spatial cheat ability. She's highly skilled in combat and never suffers mistreatment or resentment. ⑧ The female lead transmigrates to the 1970s, doesn't go to the countryside, uses her spatial ability to improve her family's situation, and even gets into university with her brother.

    The two books I've been following recently both feature no black market activities; they're all conducted openly and honestly. [You should think about it carefully] 1. Unlike other books, the female lead in this one doesn't operate secretly. She takes a different approach, leading the entire village in the business. She not only makes money but also wins people's hearts. The male lead is someone she married into the family for 200 yuan. He's a homebody type, a former researcher who's good at inventing. 2. The female lead doesn't use the black market; she runs her business legitimately with a business license! [Military marriage + high EQ couple + no space or system + cunning and witty male lead] This is the most charismatic male lead I've ever read. Knowing his family isn't doing well, he specifically sends money to the female lead's mother-in-law every month so they can give it to her! He respects the female lead immensely. During his two-month visit home, he helps her build a network for her business. His EQ is incredibly high; he says things I would never have imagined in my life. The female lead is also a very kind and emotionally intelligent person who leads her family to wealth. She's incredibly eloquent and has a great mouth (the low rating is only temporary; it's gotten much better now than when I first watched it, and breaking 9 points is just a matter of time!!!).

    This book is super good! The premise is quite novel. The female lead is physically weak, but the original owner studied medicine for a few years and wanted to pursue a career in medicine. The male lead appears, but they haven't met yet. Qiao Ranran's personality surprised me. I initially thought she was just spoiled and willful after being reborn, but it turns out she was just using the wrong methods. After being persuaded by the female lead, she decides to become a doctor. The writing is good, and the author is very meticulous and research-oriented.
