Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

Lin Wei Xi found out after she died that she was just a cannon fodder in a novel, used as contrast to the gentle and considerate and virtuous female lead.

The male lead was her ex-husband, the dignified heir of Yan Wang, his family were superior and brilliant, but the female lead was not her.

The female lead was her concubine-born younger sister, and her husband’s white moonlight, his cinnabar mole, no wonder! After Lin Wei Xi died, her husband finally married her sister as he wished.

She watched coldly at the two like honey in the oil, in love and harmonious, everyone using the success of her younger sister to contrast the impropriety of the original wife.

Lin Wei Xi sneered, okay, since your love moves the world, then this sister will come back and be your stepmother!

So she married her ex-husband’s father, the father-in-law she never met in the previous life, the country’s God of war, who has not remarried after losing his wife, the one that hold military power, the brilliant Yan Wang.

Later Yan Wang, who was in his prime years and used to act decisively, looked at his small, delicate, much younger wife, and had a headache.

No matter, she is still young, he have to spoil her, indulge her, teach her.

Loved it. Unexpectedly realistic faulty/human characters. Not all is black and white.

The main couple communicates! Not always to perfection but this story is mostly free of unnecessarily misunderstandings.

5/5 no regrets reading till the end

This is good but the translation is a bit blunt also the author didn't write an explanation how Yan Wang and his son know that Wei Xi is Gao Xi. I mean they were in ancient time and the idea of someone rebirth again is strange. How can they be so calm about that

And by the way I wish in another universe his son end up with Gao Xi

This novel was so good. Unlike many cliche transmigration novels, this was unique. The plot line was amazing and the flow of the novel was well balanced.

It was really nice reading how the ML indulged the MC, his very young wife. Further more, the MC had a strong backbone which was really refreshing unlike being bullied always under vicious schemes.

The title of the book was really eye catching and was kind of disgusting but made hopeful for the content at the same time. It was proved later that giving this... more>> book a chance was a good decision. <<less

This is a very very good story, but be aware of tags before reading.

I felt so much emotions while reading it. There was enough rod drama, but somehow it didn’t get bored and angry with it. There is a revenge and face-slapping.

I’m really very happy for MC to be able to find ML in the end. They are a good couple, and age is not the issue here, imho.

... more>> This story made me think of many stuff and also gave me some new view on some other. Quite an enjoyable read.

Totally recommend. <<less

I quite like the attitude of the MC and I really enjoyed the relationship between her and the ML! It was also interesting reading a novel where the MC is reborn after her death as someone else not long after, rather than a long time skip of some sort.

Ok so, firstly its about 3.5 but I'll give it a 4.

The translation quality is... So-so, and that's mainly the reason for this rating.

I agree with someone who said that the MC was full of slip ups. Like, what normal lady from countryside, orphaned and neglected by her family would behave like she did, like a full fledged noble lady she was on her previous life.

... more>> I don't personally mind the age gap between them, its not like I never saw couples like that in my life, who were happy together.

The novel is also not that engaging (maybe because of the translation quality) I sometimes skipped some parts. At least it didn't drag and thus was an enjoyable read.

Overall, I don't dislike it and if you like, then go ahead and read it. It will not be a waste of time. <<less

Beautiful story.

They were really meant to be together, and all the karma was delivered timely and justly. The side characters were pretty plain and straight to the point, you could clearly see their ending from the very beginning, which is not a bad thing.

Really shows how the personality of a person, regardless of transmigration or not, would still not guarantee their success like in every other novel.

I thoroughly enjoyed the interactions between ML and FML, they were cute, romantic and peaceful unlike in other stories where there is so much... more>> drama and misunderstanding between the main couple that is tiresome, the author really pulled off the mature responsible older man with the stubborn, tsundere younger girl. <<less

edit: I wanted to rate this novel 3.0 but im not sure if it was successful.

I loved moonjelly's translation but alas its been months since this was updated so I went forward and finished this novel.

A lot of the reviews Ive seen are similar to my views on this novel. A quick read, but nothing too unexpected happens its not a bad thing, this novel was interesting enough but I feel it focused more on other peoples lives... it wasnt really related to the MC or her relationship... so I... more>> guess just the misfortunes of the villains.

The initial chapters were fun though, especially the cute moments of MC interacting with the subordinates.

But I wass sastified by the extras cause the ending of the novel felt... underwelhming still fun read, wont be rereading again <<less

This is good read!

Not much super power, only a bit of dog blood drama

The real important: Xi'er & Yan Wangye never fight or even had a separate way! Of course there are misunderstanding & miscommunication, but it won't flow too long, that makes you pissed at them 😅

The villains ugh just say bye!

Thanks so much for translated this story!

I have read many of the novels by the same author, I must say that I really liked Gu hui yan's character, but while reading, I always felt that the author tries to make Gu Huo Yan see as someone capable, a leader, a strategist, someone with a lot of experience, but personally, he was a terrible father, not that he sympathizes with Gu Cheng Yao, gu cheng yao was not very good when making decisions, especially in personal ones such as choosing a wife, and This is partly the parents' fault, Gu hui yan's fault for letting things go to his first wife, for not talking to her, in the end the one who paid for the lack of communication between the parents was Gu cheng yao, in that aspect gu hui Yan loses many points, personally I expected him to have a boy with Lin wei xi, because in general this author always makes the FL in his novels have first-born boys or twins, in short, of all the novels of this author Finally, I thank the translator, because this novel could not be I found it in Chinese and I had to look it up in English. Thank you

Im glad that lin wei xi and gu hui yan found their happily ever after, but im saddened with gu cheng yao ending. He is the real victim in all this. Born with an absent father, delusional mother and manipulative caretaker and wife for his entire life. Yes, he did abandon gao xi, leading to her death, but at that time he himself was a teenager and still under the manipulation of his nanny. Even gu hui yan himself did s*upid things at this age, which is to entangle with... more>> his delusional first wife. I wish that as a father, gu hui yan will at least have some reconciliation with his estranged son before leaving him all alone again. <<less

An excellent story that resolved a lot of plot holes. The growth of all the characters are just amazing and vivid, even the antagonist had a moment of recollection before her final breath. Although there is a big gap between the ML and FL, the primary focus was on their growing relationship that gives a good comparison to the relationships that the secondary ML (ML's son) had.

I highly recommend it! Thank you, translator Ollie, for being consistent in releasing these chapters. Despite several grammar error that caused slight confusion, I... more>> think the translator's work was quite good and got better later on. Just like how the ML and FL are not perfect, but because the efforts led to finishing the translation of this novel we should appreciate the translator's dedication. &Lt;3<3 <3 <<less

I really love it! Transmigrator vs Reincarnator, I never thought this kind of plot exist lol. The 1st translator did a really good job, even though the grammar is confusing in the few first chapter but it gets better. The 2nd translator is amazing, I only read chapter one but it translated so well and much more easy to read. Overall, great novel and great translators. I would definitely reread this in the future.

Totally good and highly recommended.

Thank you for the author making this good story and for the translators translating this novel for us to read easily.

I'm not really a fan of historical c-novels but surprisingly this one got me hooked and made me binge reading it in one day. I really loved the ML and the FL interactions. Do not mention about their age gap, I really forgot about their age gap fact when reading this novel because of how they are perfectly suited to each other. Love them ❤️

Totally hooked.

It is a satisfying novel with plenty of contrasting moments (cute, dramatic, fluffy, sad, etc) so get ready for a sweet journey with heavy memories, dramatic moments and a HE.

Liked the main characters almost from the beginning (strong but cute MC and impassive, doting and heroic ML) and the interaction between them is really dynamic and lovable, which is trully enjoyable. Plus, the ending is just right.

So...

Recommend!!!!!

Not bad of a story, it's enjoying to read when you had nothing to do but not very much plot wise for me.

I would say the ex-ML is ignorant may be because of the ML himself. He never really care about the house fare and went along with everything.

It's funny to read the convo between MC and ML, it's cute and light. At first I was really weird out, like MC and ex-ML's dad??? But later on, reading the backstory of the dad, I could understand a bit that ... more>>

he's still young, not that old but still old.

I really like this story. It reminds me of the Rebirth of Malicious Empress of Military Lineage where they have to deal with a scheming household and a scummy ex-husband. I like that the ML is very good to the FL and always protect her. Definitely a good read and will satisfy you.

The only thing is the translation is a bit bad, like it is MTL. I recommend you read the newer translations first for smoother reading so you understand, then when you cannot wait anymore just read the old... more>> translations. <<less
