   I highly recommend the first three books; I finished them all. The female leads are all intelligent and quick-witted, and most importantly, they're very persuasive. I stopped reading each one once I started! [Thumbs up] I'm currently reading the fourth one; the female lead has a cheat system—a daily check-in system—which is quite novel. The female lead is also beautiful, eloquent, and intelligent. [Thumbs up] Highly recommended! [Smirk]

    The first book features the eldest sister leading her younger siblings to her father's wedding, carrying her mother's portrait. She sabotages the wedding, reclaims her mother's house, and drives away her scumbag father and the scheming woman with the child. Next, she goes to the factory to reclaim her mother's job, which, being a model worker, is supposed to be available to her children. However, her scumbag father lies to them, saying he doesn't have it. In short, it's a very entertaining read; the female lead is incredibly eloquent, and the adopted child who helps carry the portrait is also a clever and interesting character. Overall, it's worth reading. The second book, in my opinion, is one of the representative works of period fiction. Each of the female lead's family members could have their own book as the protagonist. The most classic scene is when the female lead uses a system to select her husband.

    Ever since reading Li Laifu's "Ten Acres at the Beginning," I've been looking for historical fiction to read. This one is particularly great. I used to follow Li Laifu's book, which had a very long storyline and is still ongoing. This book has a similar storyline and development, and a good ending. The author's writing is excellent, and I highly recommend it.

    [Pouting][Pouting][Pouting] These four books are all very good. I don't usually recommend the average ones because I'd stay up all night reading them. ❶ A very special but very good one. The female lead is reborn after having children and grandchildren. In her previous life, she raised a bunch of ungrateful wretches. When she got sick, they wouldn't treat her. After her rebirth, she's no longer the same and treats her children with all her heart. In turn, her children are very filial. It's very realistic and will make you feel that maybe one day you'll also have that kind of experience, making you stop and think. ❷ An empress transmigrates to the 1960s and is pampered by her family. It's very good. Although the female lead is silly in the beginning, she'll be better later. ❸ The female lead has a space and is pampered by her family. The male lead is a cultured but rough man. ❹ She has a space to go back to her hometown. Her uncle and aunt love her very much. The female lead is very good.
