Second Marriage Chapter Completed Discussion

It's not bad for historical.

I think one big issue is I keep forgetting how most mediocre-writers of historical tend to villainize all the women in them as if it was one gigantic harem intrigue battle. The way every woman of the MC's age behaves in this novel is just ridiculously one-dimensional... Literally EVERYONE is out to get her, not a single positive relationship or friend or person in the same age-group who isn't insane (except the MC's own servant)

Spoiler

EVERY ONE OF HER COUSINS who she's NEVER EVEN MET??? SUDDENLY have a bad impression of her from literally having never met her and snipe at her at like literally the FIRST DINNER/BANQUET she's ever even met them at, and then proceed to scheme against her with literally NO BENEFIT?? makes no sense

not to mention her aunt is a huge like villain who like ? for some reason? hires ppl to kill her for her dowry? after her husband personally promised to send her away WITH THEIR OWN PEOPLE? while also saying that her dowry must be really small / cheap / poor cause they dont have a lot of money???

like bruh, there's even that popular chinese saying "kill with a borrowed knife" why would you implicate yourself / your family when literally everyone and their dog knows that those servants belonged to your family?

AND WHAT IS THE POINT of doing these things for a supposedly negligible dowry literally not even worth it???

Answer: There is no point, just author's inability to create believable plotlines and reasoning that doesn't involve drinking koolaid and turning off your brain.

TL;DR, author has some huge brain issues and likes to start everything with female side characters even when their actions make zero sense.

Translation was pretty good, just a few hiccups here and there (more in earlier parts of the novel).
