In the first book, Lu Lingjun is reborn, and his sister-in-law changes marriage. My husband is a lover, and my sweetheart is a time-travelling girl. Of course, it's easy for the heroine to be the mistress. The second book is fast paced without dragging. Wanwan was pregnant and divorced, and then married into the palace and became the queen, which was a smooth sailing. (There is a palace setting here, avoid lightning if it is unacceptable) The third book is very imaginative, and I like the character setting very much. Especially the concubine setting, it looks like the heroine of a novel.

24 你 Let Them Fight! The Matriarch Just Wants to Lie Flat and Slack Off Lin Guo'erAncient Romance288k WordsCompleted 1.8kReads8.9Score126Shelves

Reader note

Reasons for giving this book 5 points: 1. One point for the novel setting. Finally, it is not the heroine who has experienced betrayal and returned from rebirth, but the heroine herself who has realized that the whole family is not a good person. Moreover, it is also the rebirth of the heroine. The rebirth of the heroine proves one thing, that is, those who are not smart will not become smarter because of rebirth. If the heroine is smart, she can live a good life without being reborn. 2. Although the heroine in One Point is rich and subsidizes her husband's family like other novels, the heroine records all of this in the book, and the money is taken back directly. Unlike others, she just gives it and treats it like feeding the dog. The cousin's concubine was beaten first, and the housekeeper Quan said he didn't want it, so they had no money to use it. Unlike the previous ones who said they had to wait until the end of the month, they immediately retaliated against the Hou Mansion's shop. If they lost money, they had to go to the Hou Mansion. It was so cool. 4. One point is logical. How could a mistress who has been in charge of the family for so many years not have the means to deal with an old lady and a mother-in-law who is incapable of handling things clearly? Needless to say about those sisters, other rebirth stories basically have to be both overt and underhanded. Let the old lady and her mother-in-law fool around for more than a hundred chapters. This is not the case. It was dealt with immediately. 5. One point is given to the character of the prince, which is completely different from other novels.
