Description
Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.All Chu Lian had done was to read a book where the female lead had cheated on her wonderful husband. While wondering why, before she knew it, she was waking up in the body of that very same female lead!
Wait, did that mean the handsome husband from the book was hers now? Chu Lian decided to welcome him with open arms!
However, what she got wasn’t the kind husband she had been expecting. Instead, his personality seemed to have been completely flipped! He left her all alone on their wedding night… and just five days into their marriage, her dear husband abandoned his loving wife and left to enlist in the army!
Fine! Be that way! She could pass her days perfectly well somehow, even if she had to do it alone!
Chu Lian put her household in order, charmed the rest of her new family, and did a little business on the side. She even opened up some new trade routes! Her days passed peacefully and leisurely… Until her dear husband got into trouble at the frontline of the war.
Hmph, isn’t he crawling back to me for help in the end? Forget it, I’ll go save him myself!

Mutual feelings starts at around chapter 283.
While this is story is tagged as "romance, " I firmly believe that the male lead/love interest tanked the story's quality. Frankly, all of his scenes are unpleasant, but it was fine because he's not actually a major component of the story for several chapters. Like, over 100 chapters, actually? Honestly, BOTH of the male leads in this are pretty uh... They're F-tier men. The male lead (the one the MC is married to and sees in the beginning) has his reasons for his awful behavior, but that doesn't make him any less irritating and unpleasant-- it's possible he improves past the point I read, but like... I was 400+ chapters in. There's a line between "tormented, complex, and interesting" and "tormented, complex, and irritating" and this guy is the latter. I don't know if I would even describe him as complex. He's like a highschool bully, except he's a full grown man.
He's also just... gross. TW for assault and noncon:
He physically assaults her (choking her right in the first chapters!) and when they finally reunite again dozens of chapters later, he gropes her while she's asleep and feels entitled to her body. Most of the time, he's just incredibly uncharitable towards her (stealing her food, spying on her, etc) The OTHER male lead is also similarly gross, kissing her without her consent and just generally being your standard creepy yandere.
Outside of the main character, I wouldn't say the MC has many strong connections to other characters. A lot of them are boiled down to "She makes good food, and she's nice" OR "I hate her!!" These shallow relationships particularly disappoint me, as I was hoping the story would feature strong female friendships. In particular, I agree with one of the other reviewers here on how one female in-law was handled.
Madam Zou's characterization is so bad!! MC saves Zou's life (though Zou does not know this) so I mistakenly thought it was a lead up to a heartwarming friendship, but in the end it turned into some sort of one-sided rivalry/competition!
The romance was quite awkward because the couple didn't communicate their thoughts to one another like ever, and even when Chu Lian (FL) goes to find and save ML/sends him food/saves ML's mom's life because she knew where a certain plant she needed to cure her illness was from reading the novel, IT WAS STILL AWKWARD! Hella annoying and their relationship status was almost always stagnant and even quite shallow at times. yes, like 99% other reviewers have said, there was a lot of inappropriate touching without CL's specific consent. They're actually basically strangers married to one another, except with one hatiNg the other lmao. So yeah that kinda made me feel weirded out. suggest reading to c150 max because after that it kinda just goes downhill lol :/ excellent translation, as expected from volare ?? Thats actually one of the reasons I stayed aboard for so damn long lol. Twas new to the translations scene when I first started reading and only found crappy quality TL no matter where I looked, so in my desperation I took this semi-turd (wrapped in gold by volare) and swallowed it whole.
1. Almost every single man in this novel is a meanie. A man, I refer to, is a male aside from the servants of the MC. In other words, any male described 'handsome' and 'sexy' (according to the author) enjoys pushing the MC around to the extent that I got to think that males in that universe are all mental. Examples are the third prince who throws unjust insults to the MC whenever he has the chance. MC's husband who strangled MC's neck from the first day of marriage yet demanding more attention from the MC. MC's bodyguard who abandoned the MC in such a convenient manner that as a result made the MC almost killed, and of course the antagonist who bulges out of the blue storking the MC. The MC i.s really an angel. She doesn't care to tell anyone that she is harassed! Even when the servants see the interaction (bullying), they 'put a smile on their corner of their lips' and think "Oh, madam and master is so lovey-dovey!" What are they, blind?!
2. The second factor is Deux-ex-machinas. The stories are quite forced and I can actually feel the author trying to bend the story to her convenience. For example, the servants in the story are all useless! There's a servant named Weylan (or something like that) sent to keep an eye on the MC in case the MC does something s*upid. Aside from that, the servant was sent as a bodyguard and she herself boasted that she can take up to five men and trained in martial arts. But every time the insane male antagonists do something idiotic or try to harm the MC she fails to protect the MC. But not only her, but every servant are also useless in this story! They're mere background to make all the MLs under the sun to save the day again. The world evolves around the MC to make her even more OP or more like, the author keeps the MC busy.
3. Aside from the background characters, chemistry in romance is also quite forced. The romance scenes mostly consist of the insane male leads harassing the MC. (Funny, haha.) In order to justify the unjust ML (after all what they've done) harassing the MC, the MLS comes to save the MC in every-convenient-moment he could catch. The world of fiction bends itself to give way to the MLs under the sun to save the day. Aside from that, oh yeah, the ML is very 'handsome'! On the other hand, the male leads are attracted to the MC by how well she could cook! Now of course, every normal human Isekai-ed protagonist knows thousands of secret recipes. I'm joking ㅠㅠ. Just keep in mind that this world has a mysterious force; if a male lead is within one-mile radius around the smart MC, the MC suddenly becomes a monkey doing s*upid stuff and the male lead comes to save the day.
And also, the romance scenes are boring as hell. Many readers would agree with me that there is no actual reason for our MC to like the ML, but she likes the ML because of the Deux ex makinas. She acts all wimpy and allows the ML to touch her body. Kiss her. FEEL her, erk. I couldn't care less if the scenes just turn out in every 20 chapters or so, but the ML just could't, nono, the author couldn't wait to start harrassing the FL.
I had to endure the ML at the start because he was bad, even though it wasn't his fault, and the only thing I took really bad was the 360° change between the female lead and the grandmother in law;
