Description
In the modern world, corporate elite Ye Muyu experiences a drastic change when she time-travels and finds herself in ancient times. Skipping over marriage, she directly becomes a mother and transforms into a wife of a scholarly gentleman from the past, raising two children. To make matters more complicated, she discovers a ‘husband’ who harbors a particular animosity towards her. Not only that, but there’s also a ‘reborn’ supporting female character, Tang Rou, constantly eyeing Ye Muyu’s position. Tang Rou: “Your position belongs to me; I will be the official wife of a first-rank titled gentleman in the future.” Ye Muyu calmly nods, looking at the stern-faced man in front of her. “Sure.” In an instant, the man shields Ye Muyu and declares, “You are my wife. Don’t even think about getting rid of me. Outsiders, scram.” Their son clings to Ye Muyu’s leg, saying, “Get lost. My mother is amazing. If you dare to bully her, I’ll bite you to death.” The daughter holds Ye Muyu’s arm, stating, “You are a bad person. My mother is the best in the world. If you dare to speak ill of my mother, I’ll report you to the authorities.” Observing the harmonious ‘Ye’ family, Tang Rou, who has returned from rebirth, grits her teeth in silent resentment: “It shouldn’t be like this. Everything has changed!”

My Thoughts on Peasant Woman’s Decreed Life as a Wife
"Peasant Woman’s Decreed Life as a Wife" is quite the sprawling historical fantasy romance, clocking in at thousands of chapters. I went in expecting a lighthearted, comedic romp, but I quickly discovered it's more of a slice-of-life story with some heavier elements woven in as the male lead's career progresses.
First Impressions
The premise is intriguing: a modern woman transmigrates into the body of a peasant wife in ancient China, while her husband is reborn with memories of a past life where his wife's "foolishness" hindered his ambitions. His initial plan to divorce her sets the stage for some interesting conflict, especially as the MC begins to change things.
What Works Well
I found myself enjoying the early parts of the story, where the MC and ML are building their lives and businesses from the ground up. The novel shines when it focuses on the family dynamics and the MC's interactions with her in-laws and children. I appreciated how she uses her modern knowledge to improve their lives, sharing her knowledge and helping them thrive, even if it stretches believability at times. The relationship between the MC and ML, once they start to understand each other, is also a definite highlight.
Areas of Concern
However, I did find some aspects of the novel less appealing. The political intrigue that comes later in the story wasn't my favorite, and I noticed that some plot threads seem to get dropped along the way. The male lead's initial coldness and ruthlessness might be off-putting to some readers, although he does eventually warm up. I also have to admit that the MC's seemingly endless knowledge and skills can feel a bit Mary Sue-ish at times, even for me.

Final Verdict
Overall, "Peasant Woman’s Decreed Life as a Wife" is a lengthy but engaging read, especially if you enjoy slice-of-life historical romances with a touch of fantasy. While it has its flaws, particularly in the later arcs and some inconsistencies in the plot, I found myself invested in the characters and their journey. If you're looking for a novel with depth, complex relationships, and don't mind a few dropped plot points, this might be worth checking out.
