1. 301 屋 A Stranger Beneath the Eaves 屋檐下的陌生 Han Jiang, Who Loves Grilled Egg Whites爱吃烤蛋白的寒江Modern Romance310k WordsCompleted Life isn't about dramatic twists, but countless moments when things are “more or less” the same. Being “absent” in a marriage doesn't necessarily mean betrayal; it may simply be a callus worn smooth by the years. Aging doesn't bring despair, but rather a deeper appreciation for what we have “in this moment.” In the small details of everyday life, we see ourselves: we all struggle against inertia, then slowly make peace with life through that struggle.

   It's not a simple period novel, but the period drama is very amazing to me. The writing style of the drama is about three generations of women. The sense of group portraits and characterization are very good. If you try one chapter, you will believe me~

   The description of the psychological dilemma in adulthood is restrained and does not deliberately exaggerate the pain. It only shows the trauma through daily details such as follow-up visits and insomnia, and the empathy is just right.

    I recommend this period novel. It's really good to read. The female protagonist has a systematic way of time travel but she plays dumb in the early stages. The male protagonist is really doting on a man!!!
