Description
Su Ting transmigrated into a novel. She found herself in a novel set in 70s, becoming the stepmother of the handsome, strong, and tragic male protagonist. However, the “handsome” and “strong” parts were innate to the male protagonist, while the “tragic” side was caused by her actions as his stepmother. In the novel, the original owner schemed to marry the male lead’s father, but after marriage, she grew resentful when her love was met with indifference. When the male lead’s father unexpectedly passed away, she took out her frustration on the young boy, leading him to become increasingly paranoid and vengeful. Eventually, as he grew up, he sought revenge, successfully sending her to prison. Fortunately, Su Ting transmigrated early enough—before the father’s death and before the male lead suffered. Right now, the male protagonist was just an adorable, soft little bun. Su Ting: …As long as I can survive until the novel’s ending, shutting off my emotions and staying out of trouble doesn’t sound too bad. — When He Dongchuan returned from a mission, he discovered that his new wife seemed like a completely different person. She had become cheerful, smiled more, and—most notably—her gaze toward him had turned indifferent. But what truly shocked him was overhearing her tell his young son: “Don’t worry, even though my marriage with your dad is temporary, our mother-son relationship is forever.” Son: “Then if you and Dad get divorced, I want to go with you.” He Dongchuan: “?!?!”

My Thoughts on The Soft Stepmother and Her Cold Husband (70s)
First Impressions
Okay, let's dive into "The Soft Stepmother and Her Cold Husband (70s)." The premise definitely hooked me: a modern woman transmigrating into the 1970s and becoming a stepmother. It's a recipe for heartwarming family dynamics and potentially hilarious culture clashes. I went in expecting a feel-good story with a touch of historical charm.
What Works Well
The relationship between the MC and her stepson, He Yan, is definitely a highlight. Their interactions are undeniably cute, and watching their bond grow is one of the most rewarding aspects of the novel. The author does a great job of portraying the MC as a "salted fish" type of character – someone who's laid-back and doesn't get easily ruffled by the drama around her. This makes her reactions to the challenges of the 70s feel refreshing and realistic. I also appreciated the flirty banter between the MC and the ML; it adds a fun dynamic to their relationship and keeps things interesting. The author’s choice to include the MC’s drawing comics as a way of supporting herself was a great way to show her independence and her ability to thrive in a new era.
Areas of Concern
While I enjoyed many aspects of the story, I can see why some readers might find the pacing a bit slow. It's definitely a slice-of-life novel, so don't expect a whirlwind of action and plot twists. The focus is more on the daily lives of the characters and their relationships, which can sometimes feel a little uneventful. Additionally, while the MC and ML's relationship is fun, it can also feel a bit bland at times. I think the author could have explored their individual personalities and motivations a bit more to create a deeper connection.

If you're looking for a lighthearted slice-of-life story with a focus on family and romance, this might be right up your alley. Just be aware that the pacing is slow, and some elements could be more fleshed out. I'd recommend it as a relaxing way to pass the time, especially if you enjoy historical settings and cute kid interactions.
