   🐸This is great! No rural setting, no black market scenes. The author is very meticulous, with lots of references and illustrations. The female lead lives for the moment and never puts up with being mistreated—and she truly doesn't suffer a single grievance. She takes care of her scumbag father and stepmother in no time, so cool and efficient! It's incredibly satisfying and leaves the reader feeling refreshed.

   I highly recommend the first one. I patiently waited for updates, and it's now complete. It's about everyday family life, but every character is vividly portrayed.

   Shi Xiangxiang chased the big yellow dog for two miles before finally snatching the cornbread from its mouth and wolfing it down. She ate so fast she almost choked! She pounded her chest in frustration. Chu Xingyao, dressed in a brand-new dress, supported her grandmother, who was recovering from a serious illness, and looked at Shi Xiangxiang, who was choking and rolling her eyes in the distance, with complicated emotions. This was the person who had stolen her life in her past life. Thin as a bamboo pole, with sallow skin, dry, frizzy hair that looked like it could stand up at any moment, and ill-fitting clothes patched layer upon layer. "Xiangxiang had a hard life. She was abandoned in the snow just days after birth and almost froze to death. When she was four, our family suffered a disaster. Your grandfather and I both fell ill and were bedridden, and she shouldered the burden of caring for us. To save a bite of food for me and the old man, she fainted from hunger outside several times." Chu Xingyao turned around; her grandmother's face was already brimming with tears. In her past life, she thought countless times, if she hadn't been abducted, if Shi Xiangxiang hadn't stolen her life, she wouldn't have ended up forced into marriage, subjected to domestic violence, and left with no one to claim her body after death. Reborn, she struggled to climb out of the mire, helping her biological parents, who had been sent to the countryside for reform through labor, return to the city ahead of schedule. She discovered that her sick grandparents needed Shi Xiangxiang's care. She also sent supplies to her parents every month. Although they received very little, it gave them a glimmer of hope. If she were to drive them away, it would be repaying kindness with enmity. Chu Xingyao gripped her grandmother's hand tightly: "I'll go get some water for my sister!" Grandma Chu paused for a moment upon hearing her address, knowing that Xingyao was accepting Xiangxiang's existence, and a relieved smile appeared on her wrinkled face. One wasn't their biological child, yet she had worked hard for them for over a decade. The other was their biological granddaughter. This old woman was greedy; she wanted them both by her side. Their Chu family had seen the light at the end of the tunnel; they could support two children. Just when Shi Xiangxiang thought she was about to choke to death, a bottle of Arctic Ocean soda appeared in front of her. Without thinking, she took it and drank half of it before finally swallowing the cornbread stuck in her throat. "Drink slowly, I'll buy you more if you're not full." Perhaps her mindset had changed, Chu Xingyao felt increasingly indebted to Shi Xiangxiang, her voice especially gentle. This startled Shi Xiangxiang so much that she almost lost her mind. Her small face, with its two big eyes, stared at Chu Xingyao with a look of utter disbelief. She looked down sharply at the half-empty bottle of soda in her hand, her face clearly saying, 'Is she poisoned?!' This woman hadn't been nice to her much these past two days since she came back, subtly and overtly trying to get rid of her. Suddenly being so nice to her, was she planning to kill her and be done with it? She had been careless; this woman was no good! Chu Xingyao was furious. To prove the soda wasn't poisoned, she snatched the remaining half-bottle and chugged it down, even letting out a burp. She couldn't stand Shi Xiangxiang's clothes: "Wait here for me. I'll take Grandma home first and then come find you." Shi Xiangxiang felt Chu Xingyao wanted a fight, so she wasn't intimidated and readily agreed, "Okay." Chu Xingyao clutched her chest, turning away and muttering to herself: This kid is so unruly, she scared me to death. Shi Xiangxiang put her hands in her pockets and kicked a pebble. When Chu Xingyao came down, the white wall was covered in tiny, sharp marks.
