    This is one of my favorite period dramas; I've read it many times. The romance between the male and female leads feels very natural.

Her decision not to go to the black market is really great, and her lack of competition between women is also wonderful. The plot twist is also excellent [thinking].

    The first book tells the story of a woman whose entire family's fortune was stolen in her past life, leaving her alone and aspiring to become CEO Jiang. Reborn, she punishes the scum, defeats the villains, reclaims her fortune, protects her parents and sisters, finds her father's biological father, and while making money, she also manages to win over a wealthy and well-off male educated youth. Wealthy family? Not at all. He's from a wealthy family, and so am I, perhaps even wealthier. The second book is a dual rebirth story. In her past life, the female lead slept with the male lead, and they married. However, due to the educated youth, misunderstandings arose. The female lead misunderstood that the male lead didn't love her but didn't confront him, while the male lead was all talk and no action. The misunderstandings deepened, leading to the loss of their child, divorce, and the female lead's death. The male lead, after avenging her, also committed suicide. Reborn, the male lead speaks up, and the female lead speaks her mind. The educated youth was already killed by them long ago. And their child from their past life has returned. Both of these are novels about male educated youth sent to the countryside, and they're quite good. They've been sitting in my favorites for a while now, and I can't bear to delete them. Sisters who are interested can give them a try.
