The Ancient Landlady

I hadn't read hope Da's second book before, but I presumptuously said it was bad. Now that I've read it, I realize how ridiculous my previous statement was. Lin Saiyu was a child from a poor family in her previous life, and she remains a child from a poor family after being reborn. Her only skill is farming and planting.

I'm speechless. Being sold out and forced to count the money is bad enough, but then they give you money every month without even saving it? And they call themselves modern people? This is the dumbest time-travel novel I've ever read, bar none.

It's really good! Compared to the later books which had very little romance, this one has a lot more content! I don't regret reading it four times. 😁

The female protagonist has a problem; she doesn't have the mindset of a modern woman when she's being sold or forced into marriage, but she does act like one when her husband wants to take a concubine. The female lead and Liu Xiaohu married without love.

I can't stand it anymore! What kind of female lead is this? She's so despicable and pathetic! She's practically a native-born woman from ancient times, what's with this time-traveling facade?

Poor Liu, it made me cry. I've been sad for him for days.

Finally, I've found a normal transmigration novel! Other authors write things like, "The female protagonist discovers power and authority after transmigrating," which is quite satisfying. But reading yours makes me realize that if ordinary people like us were really transmigrated to a slave society, without power or influence, we'd actually live worse than the female protagonist. Besides, modern people are often lazy; many can't even cook or take care of themselves. Sigh.

It's very well written, but I couldn't continue reading when I got to the chapters about the Jade Pavilion and taking a concubine; I skipped straight to the last two chapters and read the ending. It's not that it's badly written; it's just that it's so good, the characters are so realistic. So my heart aches.

Today, hope Da's new novel, "Asking Dan Zhu," went live, and I bought her older work for the monthly votes. This is the most moving farming novel for me; it often brings tears to my eyes! Unlike her newer works in the last two years, the emotional descriptions are so delicate, and the characters are well-developed and logically consistent! In today's market saturated with formulaic novels, rereading her older work still makes my emotions rise and fall with the heroine's fate!

After reading the beginning, I couldn't resist watching the ending. Liu Xiaohu definitely wasn't the male lead; the choice of the male lead really surprised me! As expected of hope Xing's works, even his early ones, his ideas are quite unique!
