It's well-written, but the protagonist shouldn't keep saying things like "it would be better to go outside and be a simple housewife." For a transmigrator, that's like a cage.
He offered the recipe and ideas, which could be considered a form of technical investment, but the cake sold for 1600 taels. The female lead only got 200 taels and foolishly thought she'd made a profit, while her sister and brother-in-law got a house for free. She even offered to give her sister the 200 taels for the cake idea, calling it an investment.
It feels like the 80th chapter of *Dream of the Red Chamber* is set in the late Ming Dynasty. Daiyu burying the flowers is because the flowers bloomed early that year, and the petals fell early too. When Baoyu was reading, a large number of peach blossoms fell.
Xi Ren's original name was Pearl, but she changed it after going to Bao Yu's side.
Women with modern knowledge could certainly conquer the world in ancient times. Firstly, the physiological differences between men and women aren't that significant. With sufficient nutrition and good development, their combat effectiveness with cold weapons wouldn't be low. Besides, manufacturing some firearms wouldn't be difficult, unless the author is a complete idiot.
Just a heads-up for the author: In the Rong Mansion, because Grandmother Jia favored the second wife, everyone in the mansion addressed her as... Master = Jia Zheng Mrs. Wang The Master = Jia She First wife = Madam Xing The terms "Second Master" and "Second Madam" never appeared in the novel *Dream of the Red Chamber*.
Actually, being a corporate slave isn't so bad. You can become a procrastinator in every nook and cranny, taking any bonuses you get, and procrastinating forever. 😁
It's a great read. As a bookworm of ten years, I stayed up all night to finish it. The writing is delicate, and the female lead feels like a character from *Dream of the Red Chamber*. She naturally blends into the characters' lives. There are basically no flaws.
In short: the writing is excellent, the descriptions are detailed, and the pacing is slow—it suits my taste.
The female college student knew it was about the Dream of the Red Chamber but didn't realize it was set in the late Qing Dynasty and the outside world was far from peaceful. She knew to work hard and earn money but didn't know to exercise, develop her skills in a sneaky way, and remain completely invisible.
