   This book is incredibly captivating. I love how the female lead treats both her rural and urban families with equal warmth, repaying kindness tenfold while remaining taciturn in her criticisms, thus teaching him valuable life lessons. The male lead is even more handsome. Although the female lead was an arranged marriage and they hadn't met before, she readily accepted him at the military base, demonstrating his understanding of life and recognizing that a woman's arrival signifies a home, which he cherishes and loves. The female lead uses her connections to start a factory, providing work and income for her best friend, earning praise from her in-laws for her excellent daughter-in-law qualities. Despite his childhood hardships and changed identity, the male lead's inherent character remains unchanged. Returning home to rekindle his parents' love, he hopes the female lead will graduate from university and establish an even larger factory, expanding to Beijing and making their products popular with everyone.
