Description

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

Tong Xuelu had the nickname Queen of Green Tea.

She was stunning in looks, has a shapely body, and had a lot of suitors, although she had never been in any serious relationships.

By the time she was done being a green tea and was about to be a nice person, her retribution had caught up to her!

She had transmigrated into a book. Into the 70s where materialistic goods were rare and she was a poor soul who was the fake daughter of a wealthy family!

Per the story, she would be face slapped by the real daughter who was rebirthed, be married to an old man who had once been married, and finally die from domestic violence.

Tong XueLu: ……I’d rather continue to be a green tea.

Raise three bosses of the future and be a salted fish such that all she had to do was to lay around and wait for things to be handed to her. [check]

Cheat her way into a government-run restaurant and have good food every day. [check]

Use her agility and wit to avoid being faceslapped by the real daughter. [check]

As far as an excellent green tea was concerned, she would be able to handle any scripts handed to her and still end up the winner.

***

Wen Rugui, a physicist, was young, handsome and had his entire life ahead of him. He had, however, let his research distracted him from starting a family.

All of his bosses were eyeing him to become part of their family.

Until one day.

Wen Rugui brought a charming girl into his research facility and with love in his eyes announced, “This is my fiancee. We are here to report our upcoming matrimony.”

His bosses: Shocked beyond words.

His female colleagues: All hearts are broken.

Tong XueLu: Sorry, all. My charm is but a passive skill.

The story is good and it captures the custom and age of that time really well.

There was no s*x ed at the time so most people are innocent and ignorant of marital relationship.

The ML doesn't appear much at the first half of the story and FL was busy with her job.

... more>> The first half is more about FL vs society and taking care of her 3 younger siblings. Their interaction is wholesome like real siblings. Farts, quarrels, calling ugly, etc

Second half nearing its end FL and ML doesn't spend much time together because they're busy but their interaction is very amazing.

DON'T LET THE ML'S FIRST IMPRESSION FOOL YOU!!!!!!

The first impression of ML is that he's aloof and cold, but it's just him being ignorant of how people interact. ML is just a cutie! He didn't even dare to hold FL's hand!

Quickck witted cunning FL and innocent ML.
Spoiler

Tbh, FL & ML have crush on each other because of the face. Yeah both are beauties of the century lol. But later they developed feelings for each other without hiding personality. Even FL was surprised that she would truly be in love, she thought she would be a green tea in front of her husband but no she's always her true self in front of ML

[collapse]
It wasn't revealed that something was wrong with ML not until the story was nearing its end. Idk maybe the translation split some chapters so it took time for me to find which one was the recent chapter.

Here is a little mtl from the novel chp 126:

Spoiler

"It never occurred to her that he was always ill.

Since the two of them have been together for so long, he has always looked normal, but judging from his description just now, it clearly shows that he is schizophrenic.

That little friend was clearly the him was when he was a child. After so many years, he didn't realize that something was wrong. The little boy never grew up.

Just heard him say that every time the little boy appeared, he was injured all over, and she almost couldn't help crying.

How on earth was he abused by Cheng Xiuyun when others couldn't see it?

She didn't know much about the mental illness schizophrenia, but she knew that it was linked to the environment.

The last time the little boy appeared was when he saw Mianmian being abused by Tong Zhenzhen."

[collapse]

I didn't expect such plot twist because the ML was too cute. He kept blushing and being shy around FL. He wouldn't mind to be under her.

About his problem according to me:
Spoiler

ML is mentally ill and had hallucination. He sees a young boy since he was young and thought it was his friend. The boy often appeared to be wounded because he was beaten by his mother.

Truth to be told, that boy is actually ML. ML lost his memory because of trauma and that memory took shape as his imaginary friend. People with mental illness doesn't realized that their hallucination doesn't make sense. The little boy doesn't age and always like that.

The previous novel I read has ML with the exact same mental illness. So I was surprised to find this ML also has mental illness. People with this mental illness has heavy depression and once they find out about their own mental illness they'd break down and most likely commit su*cide.

The illness is triggered from time to time, it doesn't happen all the time. There's no cure but at least we can reduce its occurrence.

The FL hasn't said anything to ML about his mental illness it's a good move because it's dangerous.

People with schizophrenia, no matter the severity of their illness, have one thing in common, that is, they do not feel that they are sick or abnormal.

Once they realize that it is otherwise, they feel disgust for themselves, panic and doubt the whole world.

To escape from depression the young ML focused his attention to study physics then became a researcher. In the original story the ML actually committed su*cide.

ML hasn't seen hallucination for a long time because he met FL so far.

[collapse]

ML's head was full of romance so much that FL didn't know about his problem and just found out on cp 126. The novel has around 165 chapters if I'm not mistaken. That's almost like 1/3 of the novel before the end of the story.

ML's problem was only mentioned few times and was only mentioned in passing. FL just need to get rid of the cause that triggers his problem and everything is solved! The story isn't about ML's problem and the main focus is how FL solves things.

A little bit of future chapter about his problem:
Spoiler

Chapter 138-139 FL woke up in the middle of the night. This happened during her pregnancy.

When she opened her eyes, she saw Wen Rugui sitting beside the bed and said to the empty chair, "Did you really ask your father to arrange a woman to approach Shi Xiuneng?"

(Shi Xiuneng is whom ML's mother cheated with and her current husband)

Tong Xuelu was shocked and woke up.

Her eyes fell on the chair, there was nothing on the chair, but Wen Rugui looked at the chair as if she was talking to someone.

The atmosphere was eerie and creepy, and she got goosebumps all over.

This time his illness was triggered probably because he was anxious about FL and the baby. Afraid that his mother and her husband would harm them. Also because ML was upset since FL didn't say anything to him. FL had been shielding ML lest his trauma would resurface.

So FL immediately distracted ML to help her with something else and she get rid of ML's mother as soon as possible.... Well, she tried but according to the plot armor ML has to face his mental illness and received a shock and mental breakdown

[collapse]

The story was always funny but the more you read the deeper you go then the darker the road will be. The story isn't simple. It depicts its characters in that age very well. Side characters aren't just NPC they're truly living and their hardships are vividly described.

Most characters are grey, no one here is pure white. You can't tell who to trust. I didn't pay attention much to it before but there are many psychological thing mentioned in the novel. Such as how the FL didn't interfere much with her siblings and etc.

The comedy, mystery, conflict, characters, plot, romance, social interaction, family bonding. Everything mix well and the author put in the amount of each elements, in every chapters.

But of course I always skip parts about FL's cooking. I'd be crazy if I read this part <<less

The story is pretty good and entertaining! I love the MC's wit and personality and how her relationship with her sibling and their acceptance of each other is steady and reasonable. I especially love MianMian, the adorable little sister. She's soooo cute!

I also love that how some characters may seem like the stereotypical bad people, but they might not actually be bad, or more to say that their first impression or introduction in the story may seem bad, but they also have their own moral standing.
