I didn't like that the author constantly refer to her as "very smart" as she isn't or else what happened in her first life wouldn't happen. It just that her capacity + knowing the future allowed her to plan ahead. This is further shown when she couldn't stop her cousin's reputation being ruined as she never knew about her personal life.

I also personally don't like her, she is pitiful but I didn't like that she was starting to become the same as her enemy- not caring if innocent life is affected so long as it reach her goal. Poor Yin Canwen, I initially shipped them until MC use him as a bait and didn't feel that much guilty.

I personally didn't like him. First off I understand this is ancient times so I wasn't that surprise from learning that MC is around 15 years old. But an ML nearing 30 years old? Even in their standards that is considered 2 generation different- ML could literally be a father of someone close to MC's age if he had a harem. And somehow the people surrounding them just bat an eyelid on this fact. Had author focus on the fact MC's mental age is technically the same maybe I would close my eyes but nope.

Another thing I hate is how their romance work. MC literally just walk and ML started simping how "her eyes are not like her fellow generation" and yada. Instead of feeling sweet at their scenes, I just feel like reading a pe*vert man trying to lure a minor kid.

1. MC's eldest brother. Initially introduced as a stern and smart man but fail to notice the disharmony in his harem THAT ONLY CONSISTS OF TWO MEMBERS??? Provided, he was ignorant as his father only had 1 wife and no concubines and doesn't seem to like gossiping, but common it's happening in your own house. He even hear reports of it but always favor the concubine. I wasn't that suprise to find out he had miserably ending knowing how naive he is. MC had to wipe his bu*t after rebirth. And I personally didn't like that MC had to tell a kid that his dad doesn't show affection to him and ignore his wife's plea because of "tough love". 🙄

3. The Duke Family's granddaughter and her lover. She's one of the antagonist, who although doesn't actively target MC, is part of the Wei family that had a lot of hands destroying MC's family and friend with the dumb antagonist who constantly attack MC. Also, her lover is the ex-husband of MC's now close friend. I pity the two as at the end of the day there are also victims of being part of a political family, although they "won" in MC"s previous life, it wasn't what they wanted- it was what their family wanted. That's why although I pity MC's close friend, I didn't hate the man that much for divorcing her when he could. I even cheer for how they could finally marry each other, a pity that they ended miserably in this life despite all that.

4. The wen siblings. Also antagonist. They are cousins of MC's first life husband. Being poor, the sister wanted richness and stick to influential figure while ruining those she hates. But the moment she learned her brother's future prospect would be ruined if they continue to stay in the capital, she threw all that thought and suggest to run away together. 🥺 And I like how by the middle, after being oppressed, one became more obsess with power and the other hated it. By the end, they got mix into the power struggles.

The funny thing is that the Bai family illegitimate son is a white wolf most likely because his parents upbringing is sh*t with him being an accident.
