She was originally the young miss of the Marquis Estate, but became a peasant girl due to a mixed-up at birth.
nbnbn
With great difficulty, she grew up into a delicate beauty, but no one wanted to marry her.

Rumors said she was ugly and was born a fool, and that she was a star of disaster that brought about the tragedy of her parents.

However, the husband she picked up midway was the future Grand Secretary.

The little monk she adopted from up the mountain was the future Godly General of the six states.

Even the elderly woman she saved in passing turned out to be the Empress Dowager.

A certain man said viciously, “Wife, who dares to bully you? This husband will end them for you!”

The Godly General said, “Big sister, no matter where you want to go in the territory of the six states, I’ll clear the path for you!”

The Empress Dowager said, “Did the Emperor bully Jiao Jiao? Wait here! Aijia will go dispose of him!”

Amazing! I read the raws for the later chapters because I couldn't wait patiently for the next release. I intend to re-read the official translations again once those are released.

All I can say is that this is one of the novels you wouldn't want to miss out on! It keeps you on your toes with its intricate plots and story development. Some if not most novels that are more than 500 chapters long tend to lose that excitement factor in the long run but this one will keep you hooked!... more>> You will connect with each characters and feel melancholic as you see them grow throughout the story. It has now become one of my most favorite novels and I encourage anyone who hasn't tried yet to go ahead and give it a go because you wouldn't regret it!! 😊 <<less

Satisfying

That was the feeling I had when I finished reading that last paragraph in the last sentence.

It felt like I have seen a perfect circle being drawn in my mind or a puzzle piece that just fits so seamlessly that you can't nitpick a corner being not completed.

... more>> I simply adored the heroine. It's like she's OP without feeling like she's OP. How she just falls for her husband, which at the end of the story, it made me say, 'ah, that must be why'

The characters and families surrounding the heroine made this story that much addicting and somehow I was able to finish this long whole over 1000 chapters novel while still hoping for more chapters.

But, I'm also glad the author finished where he ended the story. They finished and also assured the readers there were no loose end with their extra chapters.

I would love to try more of this type of story, or just this author's story.

Overall, I'm satisfied and all the time I spent reading it was worth it. <<less

For those who want to read ahead, you can read it on Novelhi. The translation is about the same quality. Pronoun mix ups are rampant but still easy enough to understand and enjoy.

It's a fun story with wonderfully fleshed out characters who have their own quirks. The relationships between everyone is so nicely done. I enjoyed reading their interactions a lot. I cried and laughed through all the arcs.

With that said, this is a 4 because it relies so strongly on rescues done in the nick of time. Difficult life... more>> and death situations are almost all resolved with in the nick of time rescues. Someone always swoops in from the side and saves the day. This isn't just for the MC of the story, but for everyone favored by the MC.

It can get tedious. <<less

I LOVE THIS. I have never written a review, but for one character (even though I love so many) I am writing this review.

I have never cried because of a CN, but in the last couple chapters, Grandaunt made me cry. After 1000+ chapters, I watched my babies grow up and achieve great things, and I feel like I have become another grand aunt. So those last chapters really 🥲🥲🥲 Ah, Jing Kong, you precious child. Liusheng, you precious friend. Grand aunt, oh grand aunt.

For those who are afraid of... more>> the number of chapters, please give this a try. I myself am not a fan of super duper long novel, I even think 250+ and 300 chapters are already long, but even so, in reading this novel, I never skipped a chapter, and I was fully motivated to read until the end. I took some breaks (there was the small matters of sleeping, working, eating, letting my family know I didn't actually die in all those hours spent locked inside my room) but I was always eager to hit the next chapter button. For those who afraid that the MC will be bullied... Ah. I have one thing to say - have you ever felt, while reading a novel, so upset over nasty, white lotus, green tea, scheming characters you wish the MC would just toss their smugly smiling faces into a gunny sack and beat them into a pig's head? Well, my friend, Gu Jiao will be your darling 😌😌😌 so refreshing. Just directly beat them up and swiftly fly away before the authorities arrive! Anyway that's all.

Also, the ML is not one of those annoyingly overbearing ML's our A-he... I mean our Liulang is a topnotch black sesame... I mean, an absolutely outstanding, virtuous, not-at-all scheming (🤥) top scholar and exemplary husband. No messy love triangles between the leads. <<less

Yes! I’ve read all 1009 chapters! And it’s amazing!

For me, this novel is all about its characters. Everyone has a back story, has their own struggle and feels very three dimensional (with some exceptions like the villagers in the beginning).

Good plot, good story telling, the theme of the story is about identities is continued on throughout the story. 10/10!

Best part about this book: there are no loose ends! At all! The author spent like 50+ chapters of side stories and prologue after the main story just to give everyone a... more>> closure. To show how every character we met had an ending. And there’s a LOT of characters. I love it!

The book cover is very outdated but don’t let it stop you from trying it out! <<less

Initially, I was very skeptical that I would enjoy this novel since the beginning chapters followed the usual transmigration novel tropes but as I read further I found myself invested in the story that I literally slept late because I was eager to know what happened next. I even read the MTL and used google translate because I wanted to know how the author will weave everything together to reach the conclusion of the story.

The whole plot was basically exposing the secret identities of the FL and the people she... more>> picks up (quite literally) which was a whole riot, I laughed a lot and there were chapters that made me emotional as I read it. I also love the fact that the side characters were given depth and character development, they played integral roles in the story. I loved how the family dynamics changed over time, it wouldn't be wrong to say that the story actually feels family-oriented. I feel like a proud mom as I read about how the Female MC grew from a person who didn't experience love to being surrounded by people who love her, she deserves it. Jiaojiao deserves all the love in the world, she is not a monster but a human who also gets hurt and becomes emotional. What I love about her is she feels really thankful when someone helps her and she won't hesitate to return the favor. She's a soft-hearted person behind her strong and cold demeanor. She's one of the best Female MCs I've read because she feels so humane.

PS: Our little monk Jing Kong is just the cutest.

Spoiler

I enjoyed the Xuanyuan family arc the most. Unexpectedly, the person who founded it was actually our MC during her first travel into their dimension. She was actually the first Lord of the shadows, Yinyin, and then now Gu Jiao. A good plot twist. The author is really good at providing subtle hints in between the dialogues of other characters so that you would reach the same conclusion.

[collapse]

The biggest plot twist near the end
Spoiler

Now that is unexpected the Godfather is from another galaxy and he's known as the Marshal of the Empire (so I guess he's an alien in a way?) Long Yi is also from this galaxy. Apparently, the inhabitants of that galaxy have superior physiques due to vast amounts of energy which would explain why Long Yi is OP. Not surprisingly, the godfather and Jiaojiao did love each other but the biggest plot twist in the last chapter turns out that Xiao Heng is the reincarnation of the godfather danggggg~

It's a good novel, amazing even. It starts slow and unremarkable, very quiet and not exciting. I persisted only because I know this writer, she is very capable and creates stories that feel modern, full of witty, funny people who are strong and honest and feel at ease as they deal with people and circumstances, as they problem solve.

The first time the story sparkled a bit was in ch 30 where the FL dealt with three crooked relatives in one swoop. Then by ch.72 I was already laughing uproariously at... more>> the FL and her biological father antics. The novelist finally started entertaining the readers!

The FL in this novel is quite unique. She is one of several extremely smart characters in this novel, with all her M.D and Ph.D. Degrees and superb medical skills, she is a competent doctor, but she is very down to earth at the same time, working like a cow and a horse as she does laundry for her entire family, repairs the roof, goes for hunting-gathering in the mountains and cooks, and a typical Chinese wife and mom, extremely caring of her own.

Yet there is something so scary in her, like a total lack of traditional values or maybe even manners which people usually care about, that I would never want to be her friend let alone her enemy. Not that she would care (which is precisely my point). I can read about her and her brilliant husband, heart-robbing little brothers, parents, and have fun, feel entertained by the plot, want to know what's next, but there is no attraction to the characters of this novel, especially the FL. <<less

I got so invested in the story and the characters. I MTL'd from Ch 115 onwards and pulled several all-nighters on accident. I've read quite a few "transmigrating into ancient times with modern knowledge/technology" novels, and this one is definitely in my top 5. My only criticism is that the last arc of the main story felt a bit rushed (but that's because every other arc was so detailed). Otherwise, I enjoyed the journey very much. I plan to re-read once the translations are done.

The BEST. No fillers at all. Every chapter is a prelude or the foreshadowing of the end. I just love this author, every character has my heart, t it feels like every character got their stage and ending done well. There's no lingering ghost here if there even was one, she was dealt with properly. I love this story just as much as I love Ascending do not disturb but this hits more like home because it was written with feelings especially when some characters aged and had to go.

The tropes aren't unique but the plot and characters still manage to be very refreshing! This is the funniest 'reborn as a peasant girl' novel I've read yet. The MC is pretty great, prefers to talk with her fists, and gives no shits. The side characters are all very well developed and no one seems unforgivably s*upid so far. I recommend trying this novel out.

... But I guess those premises are nothing exclusive to one novel, right? After all, there's nothing new under the sun, right?

So I don't mind those little things and just enjoy the story, and until ch 43, it is enjoyable.

Spoiler

the MC has her kids.

[collapse]

I was trying to finish but a certain trend inn this story repeated and really got on my nerves

Spoiler

princess winyang (ML's mother) had s*x w the marquis twice and got pregnant both times. What was infuriating was that this happened both due to her accidentally ingesting aphrodiacs. The trend where the women gets drugged as a device to make her get with the marquis was annoying, bc they had no interest in each other before it. In fact, even after the ML's brother was born, there was no relationship. Only with the second child, we see the child used as a device for their relationship to develop.

I tried to keep reading until it happened again in the epilogue with the MC big brother (changging) and grand secretary yuan's granddaughter during their wedding night. Bro, relationships don't have to always develop. Stop using drugs as an excuse for them to get together, its giving me the ick.

[collapse]

so I dropped even thou I was so close to finishing, but the last 70 chapters are pretty much not focused on the MC so I wasn't that interested anyway.

the rest of story was solid, but this one point, bc it was repeated so many times, was INFURIATING. Just be a better writer instead of using a shitty literary device; it feels icky and almost r*pey. Still, for a transmigration story like this, the side characters was actually well developed and the plot wasn't repetitive, beyond just what the MC sees. <<less

After 3 weeks of continuous reading I finally finished it and yet I still want more!! I have so many things to say abt this novel but first of all to those who did not even reached 100 chapters and decided to drop it. You guys have no right to say sh*t abt this novel and compared it to other typical transmigration novel that you have read before bc it was more than that! This is not your typical Chinese cliche book (well some of them are but it won't... more>> make u cringed) the FL is lowkey OP but only from the readers perspective like she did not go around flaunting her beauty and skill and makes everyone adored her and attracts some s*upid cannon fodder jealousy for no reason. She was "ugly" yet she managed to win everyone heart slowly with her skills and charisma (she's one of the coolest FL I've known so far and I love her sm!) like at some point I want to be her bc she was so badass and cool! As a highly skilled secret agent in her previous she did not become strong in short time, it took her a long time to adapt to her new body and her skill was regained after almost dying everytime. She had the best luck but never rely on it, And also the ML!!! He is not your typical ML who only have cold face all day long. In fact he's one of weakest character in this novel bc he had no martial art skill (Yes he's the first ML in ancient novel who is not strong) but he's extremely smart and his character is so well fleshed out, he cried when he's sad and touched, he's capable of showing every emotion a human being had which really balanced out with the FL temperament, as the translator said he's a bird with broken wings and it's the FL who give him a new pairs of wings to fly again and also everyone in the family give him the strength to stand up again bravely. Talking about family this novel has the best new found family trope I have ever read so far. I have never love so many characters at the same time, I love little jingkong (He's the Cutest!!) The Gu brothers, Great aunt, great uncle, Marquis Xuanping, princess Xinyang, Long Yi, Shangguan Qing, Liao Chen the list go on, I love them all!!! The bond between Gu jiao and the Gu brothers made me cry a few times. I especially love her interactions with Gu ChangQing (they're the sweetest duo pls give me a big bro like GCQ😭) and Gu yan (they have the closest bond bc they're twins) and also Gu cheng Feng (the partner in crime literally, also the funniest😂) Gu Xioashun (Their bond is very special, he's the first person who give her warmth) it is also worth mentioning the bond between jiao jiao, little jing Kong and ah heng, Little Jing Kong is literally their eldest child! The child that make their bond stronger and taught them how to love imo. I still have many thing to say about other's characters bc they're not just random cannon fodders, each had different personalities and characteristics and very OP in their own way even the villains but it would make this review very long as it's already is so I'll stop at here. Last but not least Go and read this novel, you won't regret and the moment you click that one chapter u won't be able to stop. Coming from someone who usually avoid long novel and hates slow burn Romance this novel is 11/10. I wish I could rate this a 100 star and I would definitely read this again and again <<less

I really wanted to like this novel bc everyone was raving about it and it has such high reviews but like... it's okay at best.

first, the mc

Ofc one of my biggest gripes is how the author bends over backwards to make the MC op and always come out on top. She's a transmigrator who is basically a genius/secret agent/martial arts specialist/amazing doctor. The one thing that could humanize her and round her out is her trauma around family. But it's treated so passively. Only brought up when it's convenient. Her... more>> blasé, nonchalant attitude was nice at first. The way she shirks off the bio dad and sees right through people is fine. Nice, really. But it gets to be annoying when other characters (and I am specifically talking about the members of her found family) are basically worshipping the ground she walks on and her vibes are so "meh" about it. The only characters she actually shows any genuine warmth towards are jing kong and the ml

The author creates this wide world with many characters and there's obviously pros and cons

pros: each character is given a unique background. each character has their own distinct personality. the relationships between some of the characters are quite heartwarming and interesting. some characters are allowed nuance and depth and it makes me really like them, even if they aren't completely nice/good people.

cons: it's like the author is just throwing characters at you after a certain point. To the point that, of course, characters get sidelined and forgotten. (I specifically have a gripe about how Gu Xiaoshun is treated by the narrative.)

Spoiler

Initially, he's the only "family" member of Gu Jiao's to actually genuinely love her and want her. Then, as the family grows, he gets sidelined to extra, EXTRA side character. Gu Jiao even acknowledges this and laments how he's basically getting the "middle child" treatment since he's fairly easy to deal with and doesn't cause much trouble. She then helps him get a master to teach him properly since he's got a great talent for wood carving and then... he's forgotten about again. Most of his scenes are in relation to Gu Yan but he's supremely left to the background. What really tipped it over the top for me is when his master and his masters wife ask to adopt him and Gu Jiao is so nonchalant about it. Sure, she asks him if he wants it but she doesn't seem to have any actually attachment to him. In fact, her only thought about his adoption is how she paid his parents twenty taels to be able to take him with her

[collapse]

it was just so obnoxiously heartless and felt like the author just wanted to wipe their hands clean of him to further the plot and get rid of him. Jing Kong is this super star three-year-old

Spoiler

he's the one who will become the renowned general

[collapse]

and I have had my own gripes about authors writing terribly written children, so jing kong is refreshing in some aspects. but he also becomes quite annoying in other aspects

Spoiler

the whole "bad brother in law" and constantly calling Xiao Xiulang dumb and incompetent shticks become eye rollingly annoying. Honestly, the only exam he did bad on was the initial entrance exam for the towns academy. So like, , , calling him dumb after that literally makes no sense and seems to be the authors way of emphasizing jing kong's innocence/devotion to the MC but it just becomes obnoxious

[collapse]

Gu Chengqing is the only one of the other Gu brothers that gets any depth. Gu Chengfeng and Gu Chenglin get the "bullied by the narrative" deal. At points, they deserve it. Don't get me wrong. Especially Gu Chenglin

Spoiler

the way he bullied Gu Yan was genuine assault. Letting him get beat up and then tying him up and then locking him in a shed in school grounds is insane regardless of whether or not he actually recognized that it was Gu Yan. But then you learn that he'd done this before when they were young, knowing full well about his heart disease.

[collapse]

but I just don't like and can never get behind the bit where characters are ceaselessly beat up (literally and/or figuratively) and it's treated like a gag. A joke and is supposed to be entertaining/funny.

i stopped reading after the Gu Xiaoshun thing so that was somewhere in the 300s I think. <<less

I saw this novel in my searches so many times and always hesitated to read it because the synopsis sounded cheesy as hell, with the same boring tropes you find in every typical OP historical cnovel. I am so glad I gave it a chance. This novel is like crack.

This novel does make use of tropes, but not in a frustrating way. It made me laugh out loud multiple times and I can’t remember the last time I did that. The strength of this story lies in its character and... more>> relationship building. The main family are so well developed and honestly their relationships brought me to tears with a lump in my throat at some points.

EX. I especially loved Little Jing Kong and his relationship with ML. You know the usual frustrating trope of “ML gets jealous and annoyed with other kids taking up FL’s care and attention?” They sort of play this trope on the surface, but the truth is that the ML takes care of little Jing Kong more than anyone else. He bathes him and puts him to bed and makes him food and teaches him everything he knows and carries him when he’s tired and protects him when he’s wronged and makes sure he’s safe and well. Jing Kong may call the ML “bad brother in law, ” but in his heart the ML is his father and one of the closest people to him in the world. That’s what I love about this novel: the heart. They really feel like a family, their love feels earned and real, a labour of love through actions shown year by year.

I loved it. Wonderfully done. <<less

I adore this story so much.

It was a fantastic read from start to finish. As someone who loves reading spoilers for novels, I'm glad I didn't manage to get many spoilers for this one as I really enjoyed the journey.

The novel is long because every arc is written in detail. There are no major timeskips except for the end in the extras. The author really wrote whatever happened on a daily/weekly basis and some major things would've happened in 100 chapters and a lady who was pregnant at the beginning... more>> of the arc is still pregnant at the end of it!!

I will write a detailed review later but just wanted to mention some of my fave parts about the novel:

An OP female lead who has Mary-Sue powers but doesn't act Mary-Sue if you know what I mean. Yes, she has certain things going on for her - people like her, antagonists despise her, she has medical skills and also fighting skills BUT Gu Jiao just handles everything in such a calm way with a nonchalant attitude that makes me love her so much. She is humble and doesn't brag about her abilities like some novels of OP Protags. She does her best for every situation and improves herself along the way. She also has character growth!! She learns to trust and rely on others!! She learns emotions!! She is just the best honestly.

ML Xiao Heng also grew on me and I love how he too had amazing character growth and I love how we gradually uncover his black sesame filling personality.

Their romance is so well written and the way they fall for each other over time, building a solid foundation gives me so much joy.

So many side characters are so fun to read too.

Only thing is, due to the sheer amount of chapters and side characters that appear, some of them are often forgotten in certain arcs.

Antagonists in this story are not always s*upid idiots too. They have their own backstory and personality. I like that not everything is always black and white. I also like that there is no unnecessary violence for revenge like some novels. The bad guys get their just rewards but they don't get r*ped or beheaded and so on so forth like a lot of other novels.

Medical aspects of the novel were also pretty accurate so it wasn't too jarring to read. Of course there are some fantasy elements but it wasn't too over.

Really enjoyed this story and the translation is stellar!! Can't wait to reread when its completed.

edit: I forgot to add stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Imagine almost every cliche plot for a female lead historical novel and then put them in one story.

Beginning with a transmigrated secret agent, whose talents include, but are not only; martial arts, assassination, cooking, medical skills, knowledge of advanced weaponry, technology such as metalworks etc oh and she naturally has a golden finger, in this case it is a medical kit that caters for her needs at any particular moment.

Then, her husband has a secret, but this time is not a secret general... more>> or Prince, but is very scholarly and may or may not be the illegitimate child of a noble household.

There's a whole swapped at birth added and the uncanny ability to meet many V.I.P's and get in their good books... sounds terribly OP, right?

And yet somehow, I am completely engaged (after getting over the early chapter's 'oh another secret agent OP female lead' moment). The characters, even the female lead, are engaging, there are too many funny moments, poking holes at the tropes and several times where I am desperate to know what happens next, but fortunately as it updates pretty much everyday, I am not waiting too long.

I think the female lead manages to become likeable due to her interactions with close family and friends and indifference about others. It's not so much the don't bother her, she wont bother you, but rue the day you poke the wasp nest more that your tricks against her are not worthy of her attention. However, try to hurt a family member, she won't necessarily kill you, but she might make you want to die. But she's also not so vengeful that she'll never let you ever go or anything.

But it's the comedy value that cuts through randomly when it's unexpected that's the real gem for me. <<less
