Looking for High-Quality Historical Romance!
Lately I’ve been looking for an ancient-era romance with realistic, detailed descriptions of everyday life, but it’s so hard to find. I don’t need some grand epic. I just want to read about the daily lives of women in ancient times.
No Romance! No Romance! No Romance! Highly Recommended, Thanks ʱªʱªʱª (ᕑᗢᓫ
Any Stories About Someone Transmigrating as an Old Lady Who Doesn’t Date? No CP, No CP.
I read stories about transmigrating into an old lady because I want to see someone finally break free of the misery of being oppressed in the name of filial piety. No romance for the protagonist: let her focus on farming or building a career. Could we please stop having people transmigrate into old ladies with sons and grandchildren, only to use all kinds of miraculous pills after transmigrating and then fall in love?

Any Good Food or Farming Novels? No Transmigration or Mary Sue Characters
I'm not really into delicate, soft female leads. I'm looking for transmigration-to-a-past-era food stories, but set in a real historical period. The female lead should build her wealth through her own efforts. Most food stories on Tomato Novel involve transmigration 😬

I think the author's writing is good, but they must have been raised in a wealthy city, right? While people in ancient times were less developed, how could they not know about tofu and bamboo shoots? And why the fuss about "how can you eat bamboo?"? They even dared to try poisonous mushrooms, let alone all sorts of wild vegetables growing everywhere.
Of all the time-travel novels out there, the one about traveling to middle age is the best. The plot is exciting and fast-paced, and it doesn't have too many overpowered plot devices. It's definitely worth reading.
This is a rather unique time-travel novel. There's no male lead, and the female lead doesn't have any special advantages. It's like what would happen if you or I were transported to ancient times. It's a bit wordy and drawn out, but it seems to reveal the humanity of people during various natural and man-made disasters. This book also gave me a clearer understanding of those dramatic family reunions reported in the news.
At first, I thought it wouldn't be good because it was a time-travel story and the protagonist was an old woman. I started reading it out of boredom, but it was surprisingly good! It's very long; I haven't read a novel in one go like this before. I stayed up all night to finish it. Very good! ♡
The novel has very positive values. Although the original owner was initially deceived by her eldest son and daughter-in-law, the female protagonist, after transmigrating, exposed the eldest son's actions and thus separated the eldest son's branch of the family. When her long-lost uncle came to discuss their family affairs, the female protagonist easily refuted him, leaving him with no advantage.
I often read stories about transmigrating into the body of a young wife to fight against a wicked mother-in-law. This one is about transmigrating into the body of a mother-in-law to bully a wicked daughter-in-law—simple and incredibly satisfying!
It's so beautiful! So beautiful! So beautiful!
The plot is fast-paced and quite interesting. Thinking about it, I'm really persistent; I just love stories about time travel to ancient times and getting rich. I used to read stories about time travel as young girls, but now I prefer stories about time travel as old ladies!
This story is quite enjoyable, but isn't that just life? The author writes very well, although some parts are a bit wordy, the writing style is still good, and it's quite simple and understated.
It's quite interesting; it uses modern knowledge to educate the ancients and change a family's living environment. The only downside is that the female lead suffers a bit, becoming an old widow. I'm curious to see what kind of adventures she'll have later on, and I'm looking forward to her amazing moves. Definitely five stars!
