Both are sent to the countryside as educated youth, and on the train there, the male lead falls in love with her at first sight and already fantasizes about having several children.

So the whole story is a sweet slice-of-life romance interspersed with gossip. It's suitable for relaxing reading. The male lead is very clingy.
