Returning to the Past: Starting Out as a Shepherd

The movie *The Herdsman* features male and female protagonists with very positive values. Writing a sequel to such a story is quite difficult; if the values ​​are skewed, it would insult the original's educational value; if they're too positive, it fails to reflect the harshness and hardship of reality. Often, fairy tales lose to reality.

The first fifteen chapters are a complete copy of the movie, with no changes to the male lead. He's such a big guy, single for over thirty years, and he's written like a character who's even more pretentious than the original movie protagonist! Traveling from the 1920s to the 1960s, he's more conservative than the locals! What's the point? Absolutely no enjoyment!

The author is going to make a terrible mistake. His wife is heavily pregnant, and they have a child, yet the protagonist actually wants to leave home to find jade that they don't need right now. Unless driven by dire circumstances, no man in a normal family would act so irresponsibly. You have to understand that if anything happens to a pregnant woman, it could mean the death of both mother and child.

After reading 18 chapters, can anyone tell me why the protagonist, a modern person who graduated from university and worked for many years, transmigrates to the past and, knowing the plot, is afraid to sleep in the same bed on their wedding night and instead pretends to be a scholar by sleeping on the floor? Even the original owner of this body wouldn't do such a thing.

These last few chapters are disgusting! 😥😥😥😥 You're making a promiscuous, used woman act all innocent and shy.

"Old Xu? Want a wife?"

The current plots mostly revolve around how to send women to their partners and arrange for all the women around them to be paired up in romantic relationships.

Several flaws in this book are 1. The story deliberately introduces Han Mei, showing how much she admires the protagonist and develops feelings for him, then the protagonist tries desperately to match her up with the supporting character, Ma Yunhai. Then, inexplicably, Han Mei accepts Ma Yunhai. This plot point feels very abrupt and the transition is unnatural.

The way the adulterous woman, Huifang, was handled was utterly disgusting. Under the author's arrangement, not only did she get the lion's share of the money, but she also found a sucker to take her place and ultimately cleared her name, becoming the biggest winner. Does the author know what it means for evil to be punished?

The scene of sending a girl away is so real and disgusting, his mother opens the door for him...
