I’m loving the story too bad the updates are pretty slow.
just started reading
Indeed a must read book.It is so interesting ???...i never imagined if we can change part inside a novel but sometimes really feel to do it. But who could have think novel can come and connect to real life in such a unexpected way.
Amazing work dear author ??
I want to unlock all the chapters and I need more chapters. I like the daily updates too
First and foremost, a big thank you to the translator for doing their best on this novel; it was great!
I hardly ever review these stories; however, this is a special case. Seeing so many negative reviews about the Male Lead (ML) and his treatment of the Female Lead (FL) really discouraged me from trying this novel. And this ML is leagues better than most of the transmigration stories I have read.
In the reviews I read, it was stated that the ML intentionally made the FL pregnant so that she couldn't take the college entrance exams (since she would be tied down with a toddler). This is not true.
This was an unhealthy thought the ML had after they (the husband and wife) fell pregnant two years before the exams would be reinstated, without taking all the necessary precautions for contraception. Was it a bad thought? Yes. Did he follow through with any of his thoughts? No. It was a passive-possessive move only. This also implied that the ML wanted to smother the FL's dreams and aspirations, which is also a lie.
The ML has always supported the FL in all of her endeavors. Is he self-conscious and has second thoughts? Of course, he does. But does he follow through with them? Nope! Did he continue to be loving and supportive of his wife all the way? Hell yes!
Is he obsessed with having many children? No. Is he obsessed with having a daughter? No. Does he treat his children like wallpaper? No. Does he treat his sons like enemies? No. Is the ML patriarchal? Hell no! Is there some jealousy? Of course, it's human nature. This man followed his wife to take exams at over 30 years old. Like who does that? Even in real life, it's hard to believe.
Also, some reviewers said that the ex-wife should be pitied. She just wanted to follow her dreams... Here is my take on the ex-wife (whose name I do not care to remember): she was an educated youth who apparently had a sweetheart who broke her heart after she left for the countryside or during that time. So she decided to engage the ML in conversations to make a match, as he was a soldier and should have many rich future prospects.
They marry and have kids; however, she is not satisfied since the ML is mostly at work and leaves his paycheck to the Mother-in-Law (MIL), who is bloody awesome, by the way. She’s not a monster-in-law; what one person has, everyone has in their home. She wasn't satisfied with the dynamics.
I only feel a slight level of sympathy for the situation she was put into. She could have taken control of his paycheck another way, but I digress. One day, after all her dissatisfaction reached a peak, she received a letter from a friend saying that her sweetheart would be engaged/married. And she decides then and there that she doesn’t want to be married anymore and doesn’t want to be tied down with kids.
She basically forces the ML (who is a hardened, serious, no-nonsense man who actually really cares for her) to get a divorce. And once it was finalized, she said adios and never came back. So no, she was following a man who never showed up for her. If that was her dream, she should not have "tried out" marriage with an honest man while holding a flame for another in her heart in the first place.
To be brief about the other spoilers: they stated that the second Sister-in-Law (SIL) was turned into a two-bit cheat because of the FL. Which again is false. This woman was instigating the ML's stepson (who was still adapting to the situation) to refuse the FL so that his mother could come back.
This was selfish as hell! Considering that the ML is the primary breadwinner of the whole household, and since they were not legally separated yet, this SIL always had something to say when food, clothes, and labor were distributed, like she had no self-awareness at all. Without the FL, most of this could be brushed off, but once there was someone else to keep her in check, she showed her true colors. The ML even gave her another chance by warning his brother that this would be the last time. And guess what?
Of course, she blew it, by telling the ML's son that since the FL was pregnant, he and his sister were no longer important and would suffer in the future. And guess what? You guessed it! The ML heard everything. So, in short, she was not forgiven, her family was separated, and after more blunders, like thinking she was pregnant, then cursing the community doctor, and getting banned by said doctor, the ML's brother finally grew a pair and decided to divorce her. And adios.
In closing, I just needed to rant because this was a hidden gem that was well thought out and really realistic in terms of the character build and human relationships pertaining to that era. So, please don't shit on a period novel if you can't handle the language or the customs that were viewed as normal during those times. Thank you ?
[The ‘UnKnown Dao’ would like to recommend this light novel. The ‘UnKnown Dao’ comments that even if there is nothing special about the main character, his perseverance is a sight to behold. The ‘UnKnown Dao’ would like explain more, but want the reader to experience the book themselves.]
