Review:
The writing is okay, plot is okay, I just can't feel any emotion when reading it. There're some conflicts but it just didn't feel any crisis when reading it.
MC was wine maker in republic china era. MC married and seems like her husband died early, she then was killed by the family elders because she is skilled at making wine and they want her recipe? It's not clear. MC then transmigrate to novel in ancient era. The novel is written by MC neighbor, a foreign. OMC was married to ML brother, who died protecting the king. Both ML and his brother are guards. The brother was summoned to capital and died. In the story, OMC hook up with a medical merchant and the merchant gave her poison saying it was medicine for ML. ML is saved then he also went to capital, OMC then married off ML sister to wealthy man but she died in 1 month. ML become duke then he took revenge, torturing OMC. Later ML also died miserable because of OML, the 7th prince.
MC transmigrate to when she is about poisoning ML. She then threw the medicine. ML suspect her want to kill him. MC is afraid of ML and avoid him. She then began making wine and make the store famous. ML slowly trus MC and began to like her. MC knew there is well with good spring water in the store backyard, she use it to make wine. MC father is also a wine maker, both MC and ML family compete and have close relation in the past. But ML father died and no one can make wine so ML family store declined.

MC stepsister knew there was spring well in ML wine store so she tried to buy the store cheaply but MC refused. Then she repeatedly make trouble to get the store. With OFL help, MC then move to capital, she threw snakes to the well so it become fishy and can't be use to make wine. The stepsister also went to capital and become apprentice of famous wine maker. Her teacher also threaten MC to give him her recipe. MC refuse, he then listed MC wine as inferior so everyone won't buy her wine.
ML is close to 3rd prince, he got news there's plague. MC then told the way to cure it. OML also got the plague, OFL tried to cure him with MC medicine but he got worse. She then force MC to meet her and accuse her, MC said that OML have blood deficiency and not because of her medicine.
