Suddenly finding herself in a rural setting, Lin Caisang became the village's renowned 'Star of Wealth and Honor'. Surrounded by unique relatives, they treated her as if she were a rare panda—held preciously in their palms for fear she would fall and gently kept in their mouths lest she dissolved. Meet the exceptional relatives: The Powerhouse Father, who declared, "You want Sangsang to get married? You'll have to get past me first." The Stingy Mother, questioning, "What does she need a husband for? She can have all the fine food and a carefree life with me!" The Sly Grandfather, suggesting, "Girls shouldn’t have to do the dirty, tiring work. Quick, call over your brother!" The Majestic Grandmother, fiercely proclaiming, "Who dares to bully Sangsang? Let them face a fight to the death with me!" The Protective Brother, assuring, "Little sister, all the good food is for you. I am not hungry!" Holding her flabby flesh, Lin Caisang wept without tears: "Let me go! I need to lose weight!" Meanwhile, the strikingly handsome, icy man next door not only protected and spoiled her in secret but also had a not-so-simple identity.....

Peasant Woman's Decreed Life as a Wife

Ye Muyu, an elite of a modern company, got married and had children directly after transmigrating. She became a talented scholar and the mother of two children, and she also found out that she had a husband who hated her very much. Not only that but there was also a reincarnated female supporting character, Tang Rou, who coveted her position. "Your position is mine, and I will be his rightful wife," Tang Rou uttered. Ye Muyu looked at the man in front of her who had a solemn expression on his face. She nodded calmly. "Sure." The man instantly became defensive. "You're my wife. Don't even think about leaving me behind. Other people will have to get lost." Her son wrapped his arms around her thigh. "Go away. My mother is a good person. If you bully her, I'll bite you to death." Her daughter grabbed her arm. "You're a bad person. My mother is the best in the world. If you say anything bad about her, I'll report you to the police." Tang Rou looked at the Ye family, who all seemed happy and content, and she secretly clenched her jaws. "This shouldn't have happened. Everything's changed!"

A really interesting start. It gave me the feeling of what Japanese Light novels with a slice of life aspect would usually give. It is a fresh read. And I enjoyed the first person POV used here. It is quite well done if I say so myself.

For the loves of the slice of life genre. Slice of life is everywhere. In the best tradition of long chinese novels (which this isnt), the story takes a loooooooong time to wind up. But the hints of what it WILL wind up are very very promising.

The daughter of a favored general

"Your name is Chang Ning?" The young master in embroidered clothes smiled faintly like the sun in the clouds." Chang Ning can't compare to Chang Ning. How about I call you Chang Ning from now on?" The year she first met Jun Yihan, Yu Changning was only twelve years old. She was in the prime of her youth, and the gentle young master had bestowed her with a name that made her live half her life for him. The path she had walked in her life was too long and too full of twists and turns. It was impossible to describe the thousands of sails she had seen in a few short sentences. In her later memories, the past was too complicated, and some of them were even unclear. Other than that gentle young master who kept her by his side in the name of love, it seemed that there was only a young man in red who was always vivid and lively in her heart. She shook her head regretfully. Let love, hate, anger, and obsession go with the wind. This life was so sloppy and absurd. Don't miss it, don't think about it. Let's take advantage of the time to live in the present. Only then can we be free.
