Her husband had made his fortune in the 1990s. He never kept a mistress or cheated on her. Her three children were reasonably filial. She had never endured great hardship or suffered terribly. So why had she never been satisfied? Was it because she and her husband had grown further and further apart?

One is tough and sturdy, with a firm character; the other is weak and useless, delicate and frail. One has the surname Gu, a popular surname for romance novel heroes, and the name Gu Lin, a perfect hero's name.

    I could recall most of the content just by reading the synopsis. The father and daughter are the main characters. There's some controversy in the comments about the father, but he's ultimately a man from a feudal dynasty who transmigrates to modern times, and the story doesn't focus on romance; the familial bonds are alright. Then there's the contrasting characters—the reborn and transmigrated female supporting characters—who are both extremely difficult to deal with. Their fighting and arguing were quite shocking.

The protagonist doesn't have any special abilities, and it's not a rebirth/transmigration/system novel, so it might not be as exciting as some other stories, but the character development, emotions, and psychology are described quite delicately.

    This is a period novel recommended by many. Only the female lead, the third sister-in-law, is a transmigrator, but she is not described much and is a good person. The timeline mainly focuses on 1956 to the end of the special period. The female lead enters politics and rises from a grassroots street cadre. There is not much description of the period after the reform and opening up.

    Curator note

    It's a long novel with a rather corny title. The female protagonist transmigrates into a book, but the original owner's story is also explained. The male protagonist isn't described much; it's a very satisfying read for the female lead, somewhat reminiscent of the "Dihua" (a term referring to a specific type of fictionalized Chinese author) genre. It covers many major domestic and international events of the 1990s, giving it a feel similar to some of the strong female lead novels I read early on (like those by the author "Eating Grass Sheep"). The story includes the bombing of the Chinese embassy in Yugoslavia and the Galaxy (the Chinese shipwreck), the bombing of the Chinese embassy in Yugoslavia (the latter being something I learned about earlier from those 1990s-themed female lead novels). I knew Hemingway before because of "The Old Man and the Sea," but after reading this novel, I learned about the International Brigades, the Spanish Civil War, the hardships faced by the military and ordinary people after the collapse of the Soviet Union, and social unrest. There are other things I won't go into. In short, it's a very enjoyable read, but researching the historical events and reflecting on the reality makes me feel quite regretful.
