    This is a good read. It's a pure historical romance, an arranged marriage that blossoms into love, and the two families are well-matched. The female lead is the eldest daughter of the prestigious Cui family, and the male lead is the second son of the Xie family. Their relationship develops gradually, and the male lead is very good to the female lead. What impressed me most was when the male and female leads built their own mansions later in the story. When the female lead was giving birth to her second or third child, the male lead's mother arrived late (because the male lead is the second son, and his mother values ​​her eldest sons and daughters more than her younger ones). The male lead was very angry and explained the difference between a mother-in-law and a mother-in-law to his mother. He argued that his mother should have come immediately upon hearing that her daughter-in-law was giving birth, even if she couldn't do anything to reassure everyone. However, his mother said that the two mansions were some distance apart and that her grandson had typhoid fever and needed care, so she thought it was the same if she came late.

    It's been a while since I recommended any books. This is for my discerning readers; it's a collection of novel time-travel/redemption stories with fresh plots. Both are by the same author. The first one is more emotionally rich, and I won't say much about the second one—it's very famous and once had a 9.9 Rating. I want to focus on the first one; it's fantastic. The female lead is cool, and the male lead is both reserved and loving. There are no melodramatic plot twists, it's short, and the plot is superb. Perfect for those looking for something to read!
