After the wedding, she discovered that Fu Yuanzhou's title as the textile mill director's son was nothing but an empty title. Their marriage brought her not the slightest advantage.

   In my opinion, the male lead is only slightly less impressive than Qi Jun. The female lead is very beautiful, and the male lead falls in love with her at first sight, quickly finding a matchmaker to propose marriage. The female lead is very intelligent and has high emotional intelligence. Although she is also career-oriented, she's not the typical domineering female lead; she spends most of her time enjoying life and spending time with her baby. Mainly, the male lead comes from a wealthy family and doesn't lack money, so he doesn't stop her from doing whatever she wants and paves the way for her. The female lead is well aware of this, which is why she often acts coquettishly towards the male lead and praises his abilities. The couple has a baby named Pangdun, who is incredibly cute. The author excels at depicting heartwarming everyday moments, making it feel like the reader is watching Pangdun grow up and witnessing the happy life of three generations of the family.

    These three period dramas are a must-read! Not one of them is bad. 1. The female lead is adored by her family, a strong and growing heroine, and both sets of parents are wonderful. 2. This is my favorite; I've read it three times. The female lead is an incredibly talented painter, and the male lead is a military officer, a regimental commander. What attracts me most about this one is that there aren't any truly bad girls; it portrays girls as incredibly beautiful! [Kissing emoji] The families of both leads are also very kind, and they have a child. 3. This one features a very, very wealthy female lead and is also very good. I won't say more; everyone, go read it! [Sparrow's Masterpiece][Sparrow's Masterpiece][Sparrow's Masterpiece]
