I really enjoyed the beginning of the story. The MC transmigrates into a girl in a difficult position, as written in the synopsis. Quickly, she makes a plan on how to solve all her problems and gets to work. She's able to maneuver around the complicated family dymanics with ease, securing the best advantage for herself and leaving with much heavier pockets and a better relationship with her family than the 'original' ever had. Good for her! I thought that this type of scheming would lessen once the MC moves... more>> out to the countryside. But it just. Keeps. On. Happening.

The MC always knows how to make people like her and how to make them do what she wants. She can see right through people's hearts. She views them as 'connections' that she can make use of in the future. Although she has good intentions and may genuinely like some of these people, their interactions feel so fake because of all her calculations. <<less

I very much looked forward to this novel and the mini summary kinda excited me to read. Initially, it felt very fresh and FL is strong, cheerful and optimistic but the thing is I'm too impatient to see how see uses her 'cheerful and optimistic personality' to make good connections.

I agree for her to realise her past life passion and dream, she chose to go that way- where being a cadre was all about charm, connections and a positive work attitude towards PPL (this is portrayed in the novel... more>> btw but couldn't be sure how true it's in the reality)

But her passion for developing a rural commune is a good dream but the way she does it felt like manipulation to me (and as chisaki mentioned fake to some extent).

She would subtly instigate her grandmother to beat her second uncle, and make use of it to be accepted into the family in the commune (this was the first straw for the impatience and there two and three and more😑)

But there a some good things she did too. I might not read it now but it's in my list to come back and read it again only because how far she made it. <<less
