    "Some people think matchmaking is easy, just a few words are enough. But true matchmaking is finding the right place for the right person—ensuring the person in need receives dignified help, and the person giving helps willingly. That's true matchmaking." It's really good, really! (Except for some repetitive points at the beginning and the part about the aunt's eldest son that I didn't understand and personally disliked, overall it's really good.) Qiuqiu (Li Zhi Qiu) is excellent and wonderful! Qiuqiu is a calm (clear-headed and insightful) and strategic person with superb coordination skills (logical thinking). To be honest, as I read further into the book, I didn't really imagine what kind of person a suitable partner would be for Qiuqiu. On one hand, I think it's good that Qiuqiu is independent, but on the other hand, I also think it's good to have a confidant by her side. When Qiuqiu was pregnant, she said she wouldn't get married, and that was it; after getting married and registering the marriage, she got entangled with the Shen family (I never thought it would be like this, Qiuqiu, I really love you! So clear-headed and brilliant!). I can only say Shen Yuanzheng, you've hit the jackpot, but of course, you're not bad either. Our Qiuqiu will continue on this path, clear-headed and strong!

The supporting female character constantly caused trouble for the female lead, but in the end, instead of breaking them up, she brought about her own demise. Shen Shuyu looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle. Let the plot go its own way; she wasn't going to change a single thing. The male lead lying on the ground, barely alive? Shen Shuyu pretended not to see him, stepped on him, and walked away, humming a little tune as she went home. The female lead liked to frame her? She'd fight back! Something even worse? She'd grab her fist and give Wei a good beating…

    Don't look at the score! Don't look at the score! Don't look at the score! I recommend a different kind of period drama. It's the story of a group of people born in the 1970s growing up. In that wild and untamed era, everyone was striving and fighting for tomorrow. Friendship, family, love, business warfare, and scheming. It's very good. Readers who are tired of Tomato's formulaic and overly exciting novels should definitely check this out. You won't regret it.
