    Reader note

    1) The male lead, a former educated youth, brings the female lead back to the city. He has ulterior motives, but is devoted to her. She's a perfect match for outsiders, and the female lead is the one who wins without lifting a finger; her only responsibility is to be affectionate with him. The only drawback is that they only have one daughter, and later the male lead gets a vasectomy… I stopped reading after that point, but the beginning was good, heartwarming (the readership dropped after the birth of their daughter; I stopped following after the vasectomy, but it was still acceptable). 2) A normal male and female lead story. The male lead is a veteran who later enters politics! The female lead works in a textile factory and later becomes the factory manager. The couple each have their own career paths! They have a son and a daughter! There are many family matters, and the original female lead is also quite good later on! Not too much melodrama, a pretty good slice-of-life story! 3) Don't be fooled by the title! It's good, the intelligence system is the best—where are the job postings, where are the rental and purchase options? It's similar to a grandmother's generation, with the patriarch managing the family! It's like a chess game; the female lead is the master, and the other characters change the original story's trajectory according to her wishes! The male lead is a cook, and he's not a burden! It's all about everyday family life! 4) What seems like a mismatched marriage is actually a destined match! I didn't like the initial premise, but later I found the male and female leads to be really sweet! This is the first time I've read a military marriage novel, and the male lead is a political commissar! The original female lead was a bit of a heartthrob, with some ulterior motives, but later she becomes a technical talent, a science and engineering major, with immense charm! The protagonist is forced to go back to recover from his injuries—their relationship heats up—later the male lead returns to the army, the female lead takes the college entrance exam—they end up together, the female lead goes to work in a factory, and later the factory manager and the wives of military personnel all like her, because she actually creates jobs for them! (The original female lead wasn't a good person, she appears late, and dies later, marrying a divorced man…) 5) A sweet novel, the kind that's cloyingly sweet, you can read it if you're bored. 6) True love! Lots of car scenes, a soft southern girl & a rough northern guy! The interactions between the two are incredibly sweet. The female lead goes to the army to find her fiancé, only to discover he's already married and has deceived her. Having suffered a difficult past life, she faces a similar situation in this life, but she actively seeks out that ray of light! She brings down the scumbag and unexpectedly encounters the male lead, her savior from her past life, preventing his premature death! Their interactions are super engaging. 7) The adopted sister is reborn and actively changes her engagement, marrying the eldest political commissar! The female lead can hear her adopted sister's thoughts! Initially, she dislikes the second brother, a rough and uncouth man! This couple initially presents a love-hate relationship, mainly driven by the female lead! They gradually fall in love, and even after discovering the marriage was a sham, she firmly chooses the male lead! The adopted sister's relationship ends in divorce, and the eldest brother dislikes her, continuing to cause trouble later... 8) Purely a refreshing read! Following the female lead on her entrepreneurial journey, it feels like she can easily do business, succeeding in anything! She can integrate all resources and utilize everything available! The female lead is quirky and endearing! She helps everyone she can use become wealthy! Even manufacturers are afraid of her taking on too many orders… they simply can't finish them all! 9) This is about everyday family life! After being reborn, the female lead doesn't intend to please anyone or care about her in-laws; she only focuses on being a good mother and raising her child! The male lead is a researcher; in his previous life, he was reserved in his feelings, and the female lead's attempts to please her in-laws backfired! After being reborn, the two live a quiet life behind closed doors, and the in-laws, whom she had painstakingly tried to please in her previous life, now indirectly try to please her! The female lead doesn't care, and the in-laws eventually find their own paths to take! The later episodes are quite impactful! I really didn't expect things to develop like this! You have to watch it to find out what happened to the female lead in her previous life! You'll only understand the normal outcome if the male and female leads' families hadn't compromised! 10) Taking the child with the military — resolving misunderstandings — the female lead's promotion in traditional Chinese medicine (becoming the head of a clinic) — later university entrance exams — military training... That's roughly the basic structure! It's quite good!
