Description
Strong but Sweet Heroine × Cold and Handsome Military Officer Mu Mian returned to her hometown during the Qingming Festival to honor her ancestors. While there, she overheard a few elderly women talking about a story from their childhood. One of them spoke of a tragic family from the neighboring brigade. That family used to be one of the most well-off in the area, but their happiness came to an abrupt end when their youngest daughter was kidnapped. The grandmother passed away from the shock, the eldest son—who was a soldier—died in action, and the devastated parents quit their jobs and went mad searching for their daughter. It wasn’t until their later years that they finally learned the truth—she had died from a high fever shortly after being taken. Mu Mian felt a tightness in her chest as she listened. But when she woke up the next morning, she found herself inside a human trafficker’s den—having transmigrated into the very girl who was supposed to have died from a fever. — Recently, the Qingfeng Brigade had been buzzing with news—Mu Mian, the kidnapped youngest daughter of the Mu family, had been found. Rumors had it that she had personally taken down the traffickers, beating them so badly that they were left searching for their own teeth—only to realize they had been shattered. Everyone marveled at her strength. “As expected of the butcher’s daughter! She’ll definitely take over her father’s job in the future—one punch, and even a fat pig would go down!” Mu Mian: “…” Actually, she just wanted to be a delicate little fairy. — At the border military district, twenty-nine-year-old Commander Wen Zhan was about to get married. His bride was his comrade’s younger sister—nine years younger than him. She was the daughter of a rural butcher, and if not for her marrying into the military compound, she would have likely inherited her father’s legacy. The entire military family compound was stunned. A woman like this must be something special. Later, when they saw Commander Wen leading a sweet-looking girl with a baby face into the compound, everyone was shocked. Everyone: !!! So the real catch turned out to be Commander Wen. P.S. The female lead is the original owner.

My Thoughts on The Butcher’s Daughter Who Died Young in the 1960s
"The Butcher’s Daughter Who Died Young in the 1960s" had me intrigued from the start, promising a blend of reincarnation, family warmth, and a touch of historical slice-of-life. While the novel delivers on some fronts, it also stumbles in others, leaving me with mixed feelings.
First Impressions
Initially, I was drawn in by the premise of a protagonist transmigrating into the 1960s with her adult memories intact. The idea of seeing the world through her eyes as she navigates childhood again was definitely appealing, and the humor sprinkled throughout the beginning chapters kept me engaged.
What Works Well
The novel shines when it focuses on the family dynamics and the protagonist's journey of growing up in a different era. I appreciated the emphasis on building a strong and supportive family, especially given her past life. The author paints a heartwarming picture of their relationships, and the absence of internal family conflict felt refreshing. The protagonist’s unusual strength and resourcefulness, combined with her sweet demeanor, create some genuinely funny and memorable moments. I also enjoyed the way she approached making money, which felt less cliché-ridden compared to other novels in this genre.
Areas of Concern
However, the novel falls short in terms of character depth and romantic development. The characters, while likeable, tend to be one-dimensional and remain static throughout the story. The "romance" tag feels misleading, as the love story is relegated to the background. The male lead, a military man, is often absent, and the romantic connection between him and the protagonist feels underdeveloped. The lack of significant conflict or drama might also be a drawback for some readers seeking a more intense narrative.

Final Verdict
Overall, "The Butcher’s Daughter Who Died Young in the 1960s" is a relaxing and feel-good read that prioritizes family warmth and a slice-of-life experience. If you're looking for a story with minimal conflict, a strong family core, and a protagonist who overcomes challenges with a bit of luck, this might be a good fit. However, if you're hoping for layered characters, a compelling romance, or a plot with significant depth and conflict, you might find yourself wanting more. I'd recommend it as a lighthearted palate cleanser between more intense reads.
