I am a voracious reader. Though I like paperbacks, I have really started liking webnovels. I like romantic thrillers and I've liked a lot of stories on this site.

That's not how to persuade them. They must know the reality of this cruel world, but seeing cruelty done on those prisoners need not be the one you ask them to see.
"Don't be scared." Lin Ziyin gently patted his back. "Yanzhi and Uncle are both boys; don't let a little blood scare you. In the future, I will be relying on your protection."

Voluntariness- Willingness to do something without being forced.
In selecting people, Shi Dayou considered many factors. The first principle was voluntariness. Some households, with fewer laborers, were barely managing their own lands and couldn't take on additional work.

Ah! The relief after the pain subsides is like coming back to life after dying a gruesome death.
The feeling of no more stomach pain was truly blissful!

Well, she turned out to be as paranoid and scheming as her brother(the Emperor) when she knows the truth in the near future.
"It's fine." Princess Rong Xin waved her hand. "I've enjoyed everything I should and shouldn't have until now. I probably won't live long, and I don't want to live long either." Her voice gradually trailed off. "After all… there's nothing to live for anymore."

Xiu Yaojun said, "Nothing, just letting you know that you're not as exceptional as you think. You don't have to portray yourself as an lofty and intelligent woman all day, it really bothers me!"

Upon hearing that Xiao Changyi had married into An Jing's family, the Xiao Family Elders were so angry that they almost toppled over.

An infertile woman, who, Lin Wanli? As a caretaker, isn't it general knowledge that only a woman who has given birth can nurse a baby?( It's not impossible for a woman who hasn't given birth to produce breastmilk, but it's not that common).
"I'm sorry. Although it's a little presumptuous of me to ask this, Miss Lin, have you ever been a mother?" The helper was really too curious. How could an infertile woman do this to her child?

"Yes." Nenya nodded. "Master is so good to Madam. My father has never hugged my mother before."

Ah! Now comes the real reason why you are so anxious. 😤
She had always wanted to marry her daughter to the Crown Prince if he was found!

Indeed heartless of him. 🤣🤣🤣
She had taken an arrow to save Xiao Jinyan; surely, that counted for something. Shouldn't she at least be rewarded with some nourishing meat?

Based on a previously paragraph, I thought Duan Huai was already present when Prince Yi coughed out blood.
When Duan Huai heard about it, he hurried back from the military camp.

Everytime I see 'Jingyue', I keep reading it as Jiang Yue and wonder why is the sentence not able to make any sense for me. 😂😂😂
When they checked in at the inn at night, Xue Sifu would bring the two children out for a stroll. It was really fun. Jingyue was like a city that never sleeps. The nightlife was extremely lively at night. It was brightly lit and bustling with people. It was incomparable to Yiran.

Well, 15 is an age where they're ready to be married. So, it's already almost too late to start studying.
Mrs. Yun then added, "But Ruoruo, you're not young anymore, this is the time when you should be studying. I was planning to let you study with Mrs. Li once your etiquette is reasonable. I wanted you to go to the Magistrate's house to study with Wanwan and others, the Magistrate's wife has agreed too."

Well, for these women from aristocratic families, as long as they're well fed and keep up the appearance of the rich, it's the end of their thinking process. Why care about how poor and how distressed the other citizens of their county are?
Mrs. Yun didn't want her husband to concern himself with such minor matters.

Her mother.
After much reflection, Wei Ruo decided to visit Yun, who lived in Cangyun Garden.

There's a loophole in her statement. She can always say that she learnt a few characters from someone in their village, enough to read what's written. In a county, in any of these aristocratic families, there's more to studying rather than being able to recognise characters or read letters. It includes poetry, playing chess, playing guqin or some musical instrument and the art of steeping tea. So, she's technically uneducated/illiterate as far as these stuck up women from the county are considered.
The situation of the wasteland to the south of the city was explained in a letter by the wet nurse to Wei Ruo, indicating that land belonged to no one and was by law the property of the Government Office. If the common people wanted to cultivate it, they would require approval from the government.

Aww, poor guy! He has fallen for Xiaoqi head over heels. He hasn't realised it yet. Although he's still not giving me the ML vibes, for a change, I would really want him to be Xiaoqi's life partner, rather than some stereotypical cold, overbearing and powerful ML.
Zhou Gu felt embarrassed, "Yes, just about this. I felt rather unwell these past few days but couldn't help myself. My older brothers are not at home so I couldn't talk to them. As for my paternal grandparents and mother, well, you know. One of them loves to lecture me, and the other two, well, they love to make fun of me. Ah, so, I had no choice but to come and see you."

Wipe her face with lipstick?
Ye Muyu was not surprised that Chu Heng was not there. She put on her clothes, washed up, and did not forget to wipe her face with lipstick.

A dentist who has in'dentured' slaves? A broker house/ a broker will have those. Why would a dentist have them?
"You may rest assured while using these people. However, they might not have a particularly good reputation. If you want to hire people, you can go to the city and find a dentist. There are also indentured servants for sale there, which are much better to be seen with than these individuals." Si Jinhan gave her a side glance as he chuckled tellingly.
