   A family's strength depends on the efforts of each member, but most importantly, on the long-term vision and wisdom of the head of the family. A daughter-in-law with no background, looked down upon by smaller families, is treasured by top-tier families. The reason is simple: they value a girl who is a prodigy, capable of changing the genes of the next generation and elevating the family's development to new heights. Each character is vividly portrayed, and the humorous scenes will have you laughing out loud. The author's writing is excellent; I don't know why the rating is so low, but I highly recommend it—you'll definitely enjoy it.
