Lord Protector Ding, Xie Heng, was the famous bachelor in Dayue Dynasty, also the adoptive father of the male lead in the novel about a reborn woman. He’s the war god in the eyes of the commoner and their protector…..also the poisonous wealthy husband that all females avoid.

At the Dayue Dynasty, everyone thought that Lord Protector Ding would die single, but suddenly, there was a piece of huge news that dominated the gossip in the capital:

It seemed that Jiang family’s fourth miss went mad after her engagement was canceled by Lord Protector Ding’s heir. She said that she wanted to be her ex-fiance’s mom.

The whole capital’s gossip exploded from this news.

Overall, I liked this story but I was a little disappointed that there were not much focus on her being fierce (because it started out that way). Although I did guess that it might have happened because her life just got more and more comfortable.

This novel is more slice of life than anything with an OP MC.

It's quite good at first, as the story goes it become a bit too absurd. The novel's FL is a bit reckless without brain, she keep getting revenge on all people without focus. And the MC mostly will listen news about FL from her servant and told to her husband then he'll deal with it. Not much action or direct face slap from MC, she's like watching a drama and pulling string behind to make FL's plan failed.

... more>>
Spoiler

A lot of not make sense plot like when there are 2 king compete for the throne because current emperor is sick, when the emperor got cured, both faction just lost their backing no rebel or something. Both just accept it that they can't become the emperor and still tried to make each other fall. Also one of FL's sister who got schemed by FL tried to revenge and become FL's maid to get opportunity but she regret it because she need to serve FL and not used to hard work. In the end she just wait until FL got ruined by her own plot.

[collapse]

Overall I enjoyed reading the first part of story before MC married and give birth, after that it's kinda a bit boring until the end. <<less

If I could I would rate this novel a 2.5, so a 2 will have to do.

The FL doesnt focus on revenge, that is cool but she doesn't fight back at all. She constantly gets squeezed like a soft persimmon by the villains and they get away with their bad deeds. When the villains do get f*cked over it barely has anything to do with FL. She just sits at home making magical fairy wine and making babies the ML.

Villains stay around in this story WAY TOO LONG. This wouldn't... more>> be a problem if the villains weren't dumb as bricks and weren't 2D cardboard cutouts. An interesting villain is actually pretty fun... unfortunately this story doesn't have a fun villain.

The author flip flops on multiple details within the story. Makes for a VERY inconsistent read. It mildly annoyed me.
Spoiler

An example of one is: Jiang Ningbao had memories of her past life from birth in one chapter and the next she was just a transmigrated person.

[collapse]

Then we have Jiang Ningabo and the branch family headed by her "grandmother" Jesus... after they did so much terrible stuff
Spoiler

ie: literally plotting to kill her parents and bullying her and her brother

[collapse]
just because of a secret the grandmother holds Ningbao lets the family go and even ends up SUPPORTING them in the end... so basically... this FL isn't concerned with revenge and I like that but shes a damn pushover! If she didn't have a marriage with the Duke and his "evil aura" protecting her I'd be seriously worried the FL would have died within the first 20 chapters. She seems smart enough to plot she just DOESNT DO ANYTHING.

The good thing is the babies are cute and the story has sufficient fluff to satisfy. Also, it's a short read and not 10, 000 plus chapters unlike other transmigration romance novels. <<less

Recommended to those who don't want to invest much emotion and want fluffly

It's an easy read kind of novel

Here you got chilled MC (Jiang Ningbao)

and woodblock at first but actually hornny ML (Xie Dingguagong)

I like their interaction so much, no misunderstanding between them at all, they are that kind of couple who talk to each other so indeed there's no problem or dog blood drama for them

... more>>
Spoiler

It's interesting that author write MC who have been through apocalypes, transmigtate (born as a baby I guess) then live a life with family who help turn her fierced temperament to leisure and soft nature, only to realise later that she actually transmigrate into the book/story of reborn-to-revenge when the plot was already thicken and she almost got tangle in the mess

But don't expect too much, this is just a fluff story ;)

Our Ding Guagong is actually a pitiful person he grew up 28 years of life unable to get close to anyone even his own mother because of the deathful aura (unknown origin; I don't know if author wants to link him with that person who killed the zombie king and commited su*cide because he was infected (?) But it's such a useful gadget, because of it, our ML, even if he's so powerful, he doesn't even have a bed servance, no one except our MC can get close to him, pretty good huh? In the era where 3 wives 4 concubines are normal our ML can not get close to anyone anyway :))))

The original FL is disgusting through and through. she wants to retaliate against those who wronged her in the past, those who interrupt her plans, those who make she feels jealous, actually she turn against everthing anything that she felt like it's an eyes sore to her -_-""

I actually felt bad for her subordinates, they are all suffered because she had so much confident on her own plan and her own knowledge about what going to happened when she should think of the consequence of her action. She's too selfish, self center, greedy and proably never actually love anyone

I kinda feel sad for original ML in the book though, in the end even though he dream of the other life where he lived with original Jiang Ningbao but the Jiang Ningbao in his dream actually doesn't exist in this timeline. I hope his marriage will bring a good closure to him and get rid of the lingering feels he has for our MC.... QAQ...

I have a mix feeling about the ending though, it kind of good and bad at the same time, maybe it was because I don't want it to end yet

The story is so good and a very enjoyable read. Just note about the villainess. I really cannot understand her character why is she so fixated on her so called revenge on people who has not harm her or do anything harmful towards her, i.e. The MC amongst other characters. I thought that as she had been given a second chance that she would do her best to have a good life and improved her next future life, but no she still went to her road of destruction.

No rating yet since I was originally going to drop it after the first chapter, but Skite's (frankly insane) spoilers convinced me to give it another chance. This is just because I wanted to share why I was turned off by the first chapter.

To be blunt, the writing (or TL?) of the first chapter is bad. Doing this kind of cold open with information overload can be really good for reincarnator/transmigrator/returner plots, but I feel like it was really mishandled here. There's too much random information that is shared in... more>> a way that doesn't feel natural at all, and MC's reaction (or rather non-reaction) doesn't work at all for her. If she was the reincarnator/returner it would make sense, but for a transmigrator it's too calm and accepting. And going back to the information overload, some of the stuff is completely unnecessary details that feels awkward to read.

I can't help but compare it to novels like Greetings, Ninth Uncle or I Became The Stepmother of My Ex-husband. Those also had immense information overload, but the way the characters gained the memories, despite being really unrealistic, felt natural. The flow was also very good- you get dropped into an important pivotal event right from the get-go, then an intial setup where MC goes over the basics of the plot, her life immediately moves on, and more details about the plot is slowly revealed. MC of IBTSOME was also a reincarnator, and she had some actual issues adapting to the new body from the start, unlike this MC who wakes up and already knows what to do.

I'm sorry to compare, but it's really all I can think of to properly explain my POV here. <<less

Spoiler

the main evil girl did many evil thing but in the end she kept her life and her punish isn't really punishment thanks to her husband the prince since in the end she become servant in the palace and should suffer but thanks to him she serve in good area that she will not be bully by other. The MC grandmother also in the end will pull reverse uno card in the MC by telling her secret about the MC FATHER that the MC had to help her and her evil family

Definitely worth the time. The thing that makes it different from other ancient novel is that there's not third party bit*h that would make the story 3000+ chapters. Its the MC with her baby boo back up ML against the antagonists.

It's simple and fluffy. Not so much angst and bloody stuff. I would definitely recommend this to everyone.

A good, not much draggy drama or too dog blood story. It could be just a very smooth sailing romance for MC and Ml. But this plot have brainless villains though. Anyway its a good read not too much up and down. With a satisfactory face slap. There maybe some “grievances “ not “revenge “ with great fanfare as most novels (usually they will eliminate or fall to a very miserable states) But here because of fate and and intelligent villain and wise side characters, they manage to save... more>> themselves. Lol. So its kinda slice of life story with some political drama and a brainless villainess and some good plots, the book is quite a good read. I like the MC no nonsense straightforward, and ML cute stoic and innocent sometimes character. So this book considers a wife pampering story too. Lol. Thank you <<less

Not the best; not the worst. Could use a LOT of improvement. Translation is pretty good, though it could use some editing.

FL is the most passive and divorced from the plot that I've ever seen. If there's drama, 7 out of 10 she's in the audience with us, which is kinda boring, as she's doing more watching than face-slapping, especially as the story goes on.

Time moves strangely in that it gets sped up a LOT. When I got to chapter 100, it still felt very unfinished, but a lot of... more>> the side plots were just explained away in vague summaries, which was a letdown.

This story is basically just watching the OGFL run out of halo/luck on x10 speed as FL sits back and does nearly nothing.

It's around a 3.7 for me, but definitely not worth rounding up, considering how unsatisfying it felt towards the end, so I'm rounding down to a 3. <<less

It's finally finished and I'm happy about that. Not because it was bad but because it's nice to see a story I'm happy to read get an ending.

The story itself is not that long, when you compare it to those 1000 mammoth stories out there. It's not complicated either. There is hardly any conflict, and what little there is gets resolved fairly quickly that it doesn't seem like conflict at all. There are multiple people that "know the plot" even if they are not part of the original story, like... more>> the MC. She comes from a post apocalyptic world that dies and enters the story. She is very laid back, hardly gets flustered throughout the entire story. Some may find it boring but I liked her level head.

The ML is also pretty boring when you compare him to other love interests. He doesn't do a whole lot and doesn't seem to have much of a personality. The story gives you his personality traits rather than show it. The same can be said of the ML's adopted son and MC's former fiance. He was there but not really. He wasn't bad. He didn't go out of his way to make himself disliked. He wasn't mean. He was just dumb but he realized what he did wrong and that was mostly thanks both to his girlfriend and the fact that he started to get past memories. He sort of vanishes into the background and wasn't heard from toward the end of the story.

The bad guy, or bad girl in this case, was one denominational. She was focused on revenge but dug a hole for herself. The MC hardly felt threatened by her which speaks a lot about the type of villain she was. She had a very sad ending that I can't say she deserves but she served her purpose for the story, I suppose.

Overall, the story is nice and easy to read. It doesn't have many highs or lows. It's a smooth read and good for anyone looking to detox after reading something particularly stimulating. The translation was very good and I appreciate the work done by the translators. <<less

It is great at first but after 70+ I do not enjoy it as much in the beginning. Many unnecessary details and scenes. At first the counterattack from FL is great and it's become lame after that. The author seems drag the ending. It could reach the ending around 80-90. Also I do think details about the zombie is unnecessary. The story would be fine without it. And I unsatisfied with Yang Shu 's ending. She needs to pay more. In the end the one who lost the most is... more>> Prince Qin. This s*upid prince. Love is blind and the Prince is blind.

The plus of this novel is it fluffy. <<less

Not a big fan of this novel but I appreciate the work done by translators so far.

My biggest problem with the novel is the INCONSISTENCIES. The author seems to be writing on a whim and never plans the story well. It fails in the aspect of romance, fails in the political intrigue and is really boring.

I liked the concept of an older, rugged man with an ominous air marrying a cute small lady.

MC is transmigrated or in her second life?? Who knows. The author initially mentions that she transmigrates from... more>> the zombie world when her engagement is about to be annulled by Xie Jingyi. Then suddenly in the other chapters, its mentioned that she has been in this world since she was born??? Suddenly it goes back to only recently transmigrated. She even has memory of her older brother (translated to shouta older brother) and her teaching him to make origami stars at the age of 4. One chapter mentions that she cannot learn martial art due to her mother saying no and suddenly in the next few chapters she’s so good at martial arts and can defeat distant cousin Zhang Zhan and spar with ML Xie Heng. Suddenly there is mentions of her using a whip when she was a child and being good at it. Confusing much??? She also mentioned that in zombieland her personality is tough and straightforward and carries this attitude to her current life but then there are also mentions of how MC was timid and soft previously. So what gives? Is she reborn into a second life or transmigrated I don’t even know. Made me mad as hell when reading.

ML is a tough guy who has an ominous air from birth and cannot get near people. Which is why he didn’t marry and just adopt an older child which is Xie Jingyi. A buddhist monk says he’s going to die at the age of 30 unless he meets his fated person who surprise surprise is MC. However the story of his ominous air and impending death is forgotten towards the end of the story. Its mentioned that s*x reduces it but not forever but after that it is simply forgotten this subplot. It doesn’t say if he has ever recovered fully or not.

The story focuses alot on the foolish antagonist Yang ShuQing the reborn girl who strives for money/fame and a man who only loves her. She steals Xie Jingyi from ori Jiang Ningbao only because in her last life XJY was true to JNB and loved only her and they had a happily ever after. She wanted that and ruined JNB just for that. YSQ is also a weirdo who obsesses over JNB despite JNB not having to do anything with her in the last life.

XJY having memories of his happy life with JNB also cannot control his emotions and ends up marrying a woman who looks similar to MC. But any further stories about this is not written.

The novel ends abruptly in the middle of a subplot which is s*upid as hell and I wonder if the author just got bored and decided to end it that way.

The Emperor’s fight with King Jin and Qin was boring and his two wives that were about to give birth is not mentioned in the end. Alot of missing storylines. <<less

hmm it's not bad but it's not that good either. FL doesn't have to do anything cause good thing will come naturally and ofc the bad villainess is just unlucky all the way. ML fall in love with FL literally instantly. The book is too smooth. The translated chapters are really short because the translator spilt a chapter into 2 parts. I read MTL which was readable. Overall 6.7/10

what a let down! Started out fun and interesting, despite the obivious novice style of writing by the author. I had liked the villian and the fl's nailbitting encounters. The women have decent motives behind their actions. They weren't evil for evil's sake, especially the grandma whose actions were explained.

i enjoyed it enough that I even pushed through the mtl.

gosh what a waste of time! The resolution was just lackluster! Not really satisfying at all.

we went through all of this sh*t for nothing?

Currently at the real chapter 49 (chapter 155 in translations).

This story is leaning more on romance with hint of family intrigue. The MC looks smart and the villain become more s*upid each day. MC and ML is already OP so it all seems smooth sailing. It's a good story but just seems unreal.

A simpleton story. Everyone is beautiful, the protagonists are good and powerful, and they get the justice they deserve. It is simply too plain, one gets bored reading it. Too OP. If you were starting to read c-novels, or even novels, that would be good. But it is simply too lacking. The characters are all made of cartoonboard, flaws non-existent, there is simply no depth.

The translated chapters are only up to chapter 49 really and it seems to be abandoned? Anyways, I MTL'd the rest (really painful, I gotta tell ya...).
I enjoyed reading it a lot more than the other novel by the same author. When reading these kinds of stories, one has to be cognizant of what they're reading -- a fantasy. Don't nitpick. At least the antagonist isn't so rampant in this story. In the other story, OML, she was just off the hook! Another reason I enjoyed this story is... more>> the family relationships of the FL and ML were good -- no dog blood plot lines within the family. <<less
