I had high hopes for this but the fl just rubs me wrong. I thought she was this headstrong, intelligent woman, but she's just this generic, pushover fl who makes a plan to "help out" the ml & run away when he comes of age. & when I mention "help out", it's literally her doing EVERYTHING from paying off the family debts, developing the land, marketing, improving status/relations, conducting trades, etc. The list goes on. & what does the ml do you may ask? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING besides acting all smug while reaping the benefits. She's indecisive & "selfless" (bc she doesn't want to die). & spoiler, she doesn't run away! SHOCKER. The plot is original, but the author should've fleshed out the characters more.
