Gu Yin fainted after working overtime. When she opened her eyes, she had transmigrated into a farmer’s daughter-in-law. That daughter-in-law had a tragic life. She was sold as a child bride when she was young. After a few years, she finally had a happy life when her man was called by the court to be conscripted into the army.

Gu Yin did not suffer herself, she set up a stall and opened a store relying on her family’s craftsmanship, and still lived a prosperous life.

Seeing that life was getting better, her mother-in-law advised her to remarry while she was young, and she also found an honest and handsome poor scholar for her.

Until a man who should have died in battle suddenly came back on the Ghost day.
……
Wu Qingyi dedicated the first half of his life to his family, his mother, younger brother and wife… and dedicated the next half to the world.

He was named the military marshal of the world. The first thing he did was to go back to his hometown to build his family’s grave.

Unfortunately, the day he went back happened to be the fifteenth day of July.

“Daughter-in-law! There’s a ghost!” His mother was still the angry old lady in his memory.

“Sister-in-law, help!” The younger brother was the younger brother who grew up in his fantasy.

“Where did the shameless rat come from, dare to pretend to be a ghost in front of my Wu family?!” The sweet wife in memory rushed over with a kitchen knife…

“Don’t bully my mother!” A boy about five or six years old also rushed over…

Wu Qingyi:? ? ?

Who would explain to him, how when he was eight years away from home, his wife had a five year old child? What was the situation?

I like the characters; the female lead, male lead, and even the side characters. The female lead while smart and crafty wasn't perfect, which I appreciated. The male lead was an endearing mix of serious and sweet which I found adorable. The kids were cute and not irritating. The mother-in-law wasn't a greedy harpy. The father-in-law was generous to a fault.

This story was for the most part a family/slice of life drama. The romance really is just a subplot and he doesn't make a reappearance until way into the story... more>> (I mean like past chapter 200).

My main gripe (and the reason I did not give it a higher rating) is that it just abruptly stops, it doesn't even feel like an end. I would have liked to have had a more definite conclusion or maybe some epilogues. Not just about the main characters but about some of the side characters; and even about the main antagonists of the lead characters.

Other than that, it was an enjoyable and kind of mellow story. <<less

Lots of things were annoying, only recc if you don't really have much desire for anything, and are just real bored and have 10 other things in circulation too, including tv shows and anime and movies not just other reading material. Starts of sorta ok but just falls apart the more it goes on. I actually have a lot of bad things to say so I will refrain tbo, because there is no balance of some compliments, but I did read till the end so at least it does have... more>> that going for it. <<less

4.2 it's indeed peaceful novel, with a lil bit friction and no so generous amount of romance.. Although is not bad.. Our MC ia not something like over popular with man make it 1 or 2 men reminiscing her.. Just focus on ML and her.. But I guess their first step.. Is kinda.. Forced by author.. Well at least the later part they became a bit sweet everything is soo soo litle.. :) Except the food and restaurant development :'' and the ending? Idk if it still in the extra... more>> but they just ended it.. Well we have many likeable char here.. So it was a plus <<less

It's a charming story but not really romance. The romance is really slow, but I guess it's understandable with the title, she is basically happy with out a husband. There is a lot of food p*rn because of her business and focuses more on her relationship with her mother-in-law and her adopted son. The romance has a lot of potential. Although it was late in the story, their first meeting was really climactic, it's just that the author didn't focus on the romance part.

Low rating, granted I also dropped early so take it with a grain of salt.

The premise has potential but the dog blood family drama ruined it for me.

... more>>
Spoiler

Mc's supposed adopted mother easily gets fooled and played around with by her natal family. Despite suppsoedly being strong and mighty, easily goes weak even when wronged.

Case in point, aside from almost getting sold off alongside MC. Said Mother is reluctant to actually fight back against her natal family even when they keep in constantly picking up a fight against her. Like, refusing to ruin their reputation yet let them ruin theirs.

Can't stand the s*upid ab*se and dog blood clashes.

Might get better later but decided not to take my chances given the sloppy drama. <<less

Finished all free chapters linked above so far, and will either try to check for another translation or finish through MTL.

I think I'm on a roll, this also suits my preference well. Even though there's no romance at the moment (This is around 1/3 of the story so far), it is quite an enjoyable read. Other slice of life stories I've read mostly tend to be on the more depressing side, which emphasize the adversity the characters are going through, this one doesn't and it's quite refreshing that way. Even... more>> the biggest conflict,

felt quite watered down and not very depressing as other writers may write it. The main characters are adorable, the FL is quite good, and this has a good dose of fluff and comedy with a ton of teasers for foodies like myself. An easy binge-read which made me snort a few times in the middle of the night.

So yeah, I'm enjoying it so far and will look for resources to finish it. Will give another update if necessary.

EDIT: Soo, I finished it after 5 more days after my initial review. I originally read a translated one which went up to Ch125, at times the translation was actually quite rough and hard to understand. Then switched to Google webpage translate for the last few chapters, which apart from a few interesting word translations, were quite easy to understand.

The last arc,

which I call "Conquering the Capital"

, isn't to my liking, but it is ok. At times it felt like I was suddenly reading a different story. There were a lot of characters that were introduced, and the writer weirdly set the story's official ending at perhaps one of the story's highlights. The extra chapters continued it though, but another weird thing in the extra chapters are the side stories and supporting characters that the writer chose to focus on. They were not my favorites and I'd rather read more about the children and have more fast forwards than what I thought was quite a lukewarm ending. <<less
