How should I describe it? It's very realistic. Unlike those clever and witty transmigrated/reincarnated girls in most historical light novels, the FL in this one is a common woman who has trouble seeing through the schemes of the inner courtyard and just wants to keep her head down, do a good job, get paid and get out. She doesn't want to become a concubine or a man's bed toy; she just wants to start her own business. It's such a small and unassuming ambition for us in the modern world. In that way, it is just a little suffocating to read, as she spends her time fearfully holding her breath and tiptoeing around her masters as they smile and plot against each other.The ML is best described as "good... for the standards of the era". He's thus far quite difficult to read, even to the reader who has the benefit of objectivity.
