Description
Su Man-er had transmigrated into a period novel and became the male lead’s newly wedded wife in the ’80s. He had spent every dime in his possession and more to marry her. The little delicate wife had previously heard that the male lead was impotent from the female lead. And so, she made a scene on her wedding day and had an affair on the third day! Su Man-er transmigrated to the point in the story when the original owner was hiding in a hut with a man while the male lead and the villagers were waiting outside to catch them red-handed. As the elite of the flower demon clan, Su Man-er didn’t even hesitate before she knocked the man out. Humph, a man like that wasn’t even worthy enough to touch her feet! *** “Do you want your official female lead back?” asked Su Man-er. For some odd reason, when the words “official female lead” left her mouth, she felt a sense of unease, as though… as though there was a thorn stuck in her heart. Chi YunChen looked at her profoundly and said, “If she was the one that I wanted to be with, I wouldn’t have sided with you during the hut incident. Su Man-er, now that I have married you, I will be responsible for you for the rest of my life. Unless you don’t want to be with me and don’t want to be my wife anymore.” As long as she stayed, he’d be her loyal husband for life. Su Man-er was touched by his words. Biting her lip, she hesitated on what to say. On the other hand, he suddenly reached out, grabbed her on her shoulder, and said, “I have been frank with you. Isn’t it your turn now to do the same?”

My Thoughts on The Male Lead’s Wife in the ’80s
"The Male Lead's Wife in the '80s" promised a transmigration story with a historical twist, and while it delivered on some fronts, I found myself ultimately conflicted about the experience. It's a quick read, perfect for when you're looking for something light, but be warned: it's a bumpy ride.
First Impressions
The initial setup is intriguing. A modern woman transmigrates into the body of the male lead's wife in a novel set in 1980s China. The premise of a flower demon navigating this new life, complete with arranged marriage and scheming relatives, had me hooked. I was eager to see how she would use her unique abilities to thrive.
What Works Well
The female lead is undoubtedly a highlight. Her resourcefulness and cleverness in dealing with the challenges of her new life are entertaining. I especially enjoyed her interactions with the local wildlife, a direct result of her flower demon heritage. The early romance between the MC and ML is also sweet, and I appreciated that they were able to communicate maturely. The quick pacing of the story also makes it easy to read.
Areas of Concern
However, the novel stumbles in several key areas. The villains, as many have pointed out, are repetitive and one-dimensional. Their schemes become tiresome, and the constant face-slapping loses its appeal. The plot also feels rushed towards the end. Character development is sacrificed for quick resolution. The romance, while cute, lacked depth, especially after the initial setup. I was also left wanting more development of the familial relationships, particularly with the MC's father and brothers.

Final Verdict
"The Male Lead's Wife in the '80s" is a flawed but ultimately passable read. If you're seeking a light, low-stakes story with a strong female lead and don't mind repetitive villains and a rushed ending, you might find some enjoyment here. However, if you're looking for depth, complex characters, and a well-developed plot, you might want to look elsewhere. I'd give it a 3 out of 5 stars. It's entertaining enough for a quick fix, but it ultimately fails to live up to its full potential.
