   Reader note

   Between men, love is 100% genuine; between opposite sexes, 98% is purely physical attraction, each fulfilling their own needs, with the remaining 12% constrained by parental rules and morals. This isn't a romance novel; romance novels are particularly intellectually reprehensible because the so-called marriage and children are nothing more than a pretext for both parties to fear a breakdown in their relationship. When men are together, besides true love and shared values, what else can you imagine as genuine affection? When opposite sexes are together, can you honestly say you're completely innocent? Do you believe their relationships are truly genuine? Giving up an entire forest for a sapling—women are treated like mere playthings, like cell phones.

    The first book features a female protagonist who doesn't have children. I'm not sure if her values are morally sound, but the protagonist herself is exceptional, and it's a fantastic read. The second book features a female protagonist who has a fair number of children—two or three—but she's shrewd and intelligently protects her assets. I recall very little focus on the children. Books three, four, and five are also good, all highly rated. They might have minor issues, but nothing serious. The overall logic is sound, and there are no overly idealistic characters. I think she has few or no children? 🤔 Anyway, by the middle of the book, she wasn't pregnant yet. It's been a while, but I remember it being great, haha.

    The first book's female protagonist, after transmigrating, faces the dilemma of her family marrying off a mentally challenged man and a female supporting character trying to enroll her in a rural labor program. She decisively chooses to marry through a matchmaking arrangement, showing absolute clarity of mind. 👍 The male protagonist is the head of security at a large factory, and after marriage, the female protagonist works as a designer in a textile factory. They have a son, and seven or eight years later, she accidentally gives birth to a daughter, but it feels like a story with very few children. 😅 The second book's female protagonist is a painter both before and after transmigrating. After transmigrating, her family is arrested, and she is arranged to marry the male protagonist through a matchmaking arrangement. After marriage, she works as an art teacher in the military and even draws portraits of spies for the troops. She seems like a smart and clear-headed female protagonist. The story hasn't reached the point of having children yet.

    These three books are highly rated masterpieces of period fiction! 👍 1. 😂 The female lead, Su He, lacks many things, but she's not lacking in shrewdness. She doesn't care about values or appearances! Whether it's family, friends, or complete strangers, they all serve only one purpose for her: making money! (The female lead is a "cash cow" type; the male lead doesn't seem good enough for her 😂) 2. 🥰 The whole story is sweet! The transmigrated female lead is clear-headed and rational, while the male lead is somewhat love-struck! The plot is reasonable, the characters are well-developed, and there are no idiotic scenes. (The female lead only has a daughter.) 👍 3. [Top Post] A heartwarming story of everyday life, like a gentle stream. The female lead's role is like that of an outsider, quietly observing the changing world from afar! She stays away from conflict and noise, finding love and happiness! (The story is very engaging and not boring.) 👍
