As a result, after reincarnation, she became a thin, small, and ugly child bride, but she fought back with perseverance. The novel was not too long, but the male and female protagonists and supporting characters had their own personalities. The plot was full of ups and downs, especially the female protagonist who never gave in despite being in adversity. Her personality and thinking were very unique, and it was very worth reading.
