   The story is great, the pacing is super fast, and the female lead is really calm and not blindly confident. It's the first time I've seen a female lead in a period drama who went to the countryside and seriously analyzed how to find a partner. I thought it was pretty good, solving problems step by step. The people in the story are all quite nice, but the ending was a bit abrupt—it was over so quickly!

   The first book: The female protagonist transmigrates from her previous life when she was in her sixties and starts a new life with the younger, more eccentric male protagonist. She learns how to handle him in his younger days. The second book: After being abandoned by her parents' adopted son (her childhood sweetheart), the female protagonist remarries the male protagonist. Initially, he dislikes her, but later develops feelings for her. His stubbornness angers her, and he tries to appease his mother-in-law while simultaneously guarding against his ex-husband and seeking forgiveness from her. The back-and-forth is quite interesting. The third book: Best friends become sisters-in-law, and the second and third brothers side with their respective wives. They move out together, work in a factory, and do business together. The two sisters, who originally planned to remain best friends, abandon their two brothers and run away. It's a very heartwarming book. The fourth book: A relatively pure love story. Because the female protagonist helped the male protagonist, he becomes successful and returns to the village to confess his feelings. She agrees because he's handsome and treats her well. He goes into business, and she follows him. It's a very sweet book.
