So far, I'm really enjoying it, but I'm only on chapter 18, so I'm still at the very beginning of the story. I'm really excited to see what happens next because the main character did something that other main characters with spaceships wouldn't do, and I think the story has the potential to be quite cute. I hope the translator keeps up with the translation and starts uploading regularly, ideally more than one chapter at a time (◕ldr౪ldr✿)
Read the mtl to the end. It's a pretty cool and likable story with a compelling main character (MC). The narrative is rich with a diverse cast of characters and engaging interactions. The MC is overpowered and comes equipped with numerous supplies from the modern world, which significantly aid their journey. The male lead (ML) starts off as quite unpleasant but evolves into a more likable character, embodying a bit of wish fulfillment. He is portrayed as a charming prince, strong, wealthy, and deeply infatuated with the female main lead (fML).
The story primarily focuses on the MC's struggle to rise from poverty, highlighting the numerous obstacles encountered while climbing the social and economic ladder in historical China. These challenges often stem from human vices such as pride, resource hoarding, and selfishness. With the aid of their unique space and advanced knowledge, the MC ultimately overcomes these hurdles.
My biggest gripe is the pervasive misogyny. The setting is ancient China, where women are treated as literal slaves, bought and sold, which can be difficult to read. Misogyny is a constant theme, and while it serves as one of the major obstacles for the MC to overcome, I wish it were less prominent. If you can overlook the significant amount of misogyny, this novel is a great read.
As of chapter 190, they have successfully escaped the famine. The remaining 1000 chapters appear to focus on making money and dealing with drama. Additionally, there has been no significant development with the main love interest, and only minor developments with the second love interest, which is frustrating because it's clear that the relationship with the second love interest won't lead anywhere.
It’s a laid-back story with minimal drama. The main character (MC) is overpowered but not irritating. At first, I was intimidated by the sheer number of chapters, but the novel is surprisingly easy to read.
What sets this work apart is that the MC doesn’t fully conceal her magical abilities. Those close to her are aware of her powers and occasionally receive assistance from them in extraordinary situations.
As the novel begins with a sudden shift from a zombie apocalypse to ancient times marked by famine, I found myself less than thrilled. The female lead is injured, imprisoned, and struggling to access any food from her magical storage space without drawing attention. She has confided in her father, but it’s clear that their path forward won’t be an easy one.

While some readers might find the cliché plot elements annoying, I recommend just turning off your critical thinking and reading it for pure fun.
She was a servant, so she must have been sold before for the Duke's mansion to buy her as a maid, right?
Then her family, who initially sold her, comes back to buy her later when she has nothing and they have been suffering from famine for three years?!
If they cared so much about her that they could buy her back during a famine, why did they sell her in the first place?
