Description
Liang Baozhen from Hongqi Commune is charming and universally acknowledged as a beauty. This beauty is about to marry the director of the state cotton factory and move to the city to enjoy commercial food. The people from the production team are envious. However, she has always had a secret she couldn’t share. In her dreams, she is very intimate with a strange man. Liang Baozhen was shocked: Am I really that kind of person? Five days before the wedding, her fiancé gets involved with Dong Jiayan from the same village. Liang Baozhen accidentally catches them in the act, but then she discovers that Dong Jiayan’s match is actually the man from her dreams! She stares at him in shock. He had a stern face and a tall figure. She just didn’t know if there was a scar on his slim waist under his clothes like in her dream? Xu Shengjie, who retired from the army and returned home, was cheated on by his arranged match. Since there were no feelings between them, he didn’t care. But when he met the fiancée of the adulterer outside, he keenly noticed that the look in her eyes towards him was unusual. Xu Shengjie: You might not believe it, but I think I just encountered a female hooligan. The wedding was called off, and the villagers gossiped, thinking Liang Baozhen was worthless for not holding onto the prized match from the city. A perfectly good director of the state cotton factory was taken away by village neighbor Dong Jiayan. However, not long after, Liang Baozhen also married and moved to the city, living in a courtyard house.

My Thoughts on The Little Sweet Wife Arrives At The Courtyard In The Seventies
"The Little Sweet Wife Arrives At The Courtyard In The Seventies" promised a cozy slice-of-life journey, and for the most part, it delivered. It's a relaxing read, perfect for unwinding after a long day. While it has its strengths, it also stumbled a bit in its overall execution.
First Impressions
I was immediately drawn in by the premise: a modern woman finding herself in a 1970s courtyard, navigating arranged marriage and building a life. The early chapters were charming, painting a vivid picture of the era and introducing a cast of characters I was eager to get to know.
What Works Well
The novel shines in its depiction of daily life. The author excels at showcasing family interactions, the dynamics of the neighborhood, and the gradual growth of the main couple. The female lead (FL) is indeed clever and sweet, and her relationship with her family is heartwarming. The male lead (ML) is the strong, silent type, and I appreciated the lack of in-law drama, which often bogs down similar stories. The early romance is quite cute, and seeing the couple develop their bond was enjoyable. Also, I found that the FL's ambition to grow in her business was a good addition to the story.
Areas of Concern
While the slice-of-life aspect is appealing, I felt the plot lacked a strong, cohesive narrative. The initial storyline involving the FL's past and the "cannon fodder" realization seemed to fade into the background, only to resurface briefly at the end. This made the ending feel somewhat abrupt and unsatisfying. The story also becomes very predictable, and the antagonists are not particularly compelling.

Final Verdict
Overall, "The Little Sweet Wife Arrives At The Courtyard In The Seventies" is a decent read if you're looking for a low-stakes, heartwarming slice-of-life story. It's not a groundbreaking novel, but it offers a pleasant escape into a simpler time. However, be prepared for a somewhat predictable plot and an ending that may leave you wanting more. I'd give it a solid 3 out of 5 stars.
