    I used to think that rebirth novels are not good to read. The heroine's rebirth is equivalent to having a golden finger. Reading is just for fun and pleasure. "Ning Huazhuang" broke my prejudice. Although the heroine is reborn with memories of past lives, the ups and downs of the plot in the novel and every danger saved are the heroine's wit and wisdom of taking one step at a time to save the day. She married an unattainable man in her previous life and turned her life around.

    The novel popularizes a lot of science about ancient culture, as well as the difficulties and tragedies faced by women in that era. It is a book with delicate writing and rich characters. I really love this book. The heroine in it is a noble lady from a wealthy family who is self-restrained and observant of etiquette. Every move she makes has the thoughts and standards of a noble lady from a wealthy family. This is her education and the sadness of women of that era. It is the doubts of the times that have put shackles on her body. She is also very clear-headed and brave. She can resolutely divorce in such an unfriendly era. She is able to be self-denying and patient while also being unbridled and free.
