Please Recommend Good Historical Farming Stories, Even Ones Focused on Everyday Life
A sweet, sugary story about a village girl marrying a village boy who pampers her to no end.
No-Romance Farming Stories (If You Don’t Understand What “No Romance” Means, Don’t Recommend Anything)
I want books similar to Owe the System Six Hundred Million, Get Rich Through Farming. The protagonist can be male or female. No ambiguous relationships, no saintly protagonists, no annoying top-tier relatives, no transmigration into an old woman, and no raising children. A System or spatial storage is fine, as are mountain and coastal foraging.
Looking for Completed Historical Farming Novels About the Imperial Exams, with a Transmigrated or Reborn Lead
Preferably starting at an academy, with no angst and a golden finger. Most importantly, it has to be completed. Any recommendations, ladies?~~
Any Stories About Older Women?
Historical romance.
No CP, Fleeing Famine, Cultivation, Farming, Transmigration, and Older Heroines
These are all books I’ve read myself. The first four are finished, and the rest are still updating. I think they’re pretty good, but feel free to recommend your own too. Just a reminder: no romance, please.

I really liked it. Although it's short, it felt quite realistic. The children are filial, and everyone has their own path to success. The female lead has her own career, and there are no awful characters. However, I felt that each of her children's lives were too smooth, which is quite different from reality. But after all, it's a novel, so I understand.
This is the most realistic story I've ever read of all the time-travel novels. There's no omnipotent female lead who knows everything, nor does she make money effortlessly, like snowflakes falling into her door. Frankly, making money is just as difficult as in modern times, and the imperial examinations are even less rigorous than in modern times, at least requiring a second or third-tier…
I'm only reviewing this book after finishing it. The rating is a bit low; I'd give it an 8.1. It's well-written, without any wildly imaginative plots, omnipotent characters, or overpowered abilities. There are no awful family members/relatives who hold you back. Instead, it focuses on the elderly woman leading her family to prosperity.
Very good! The female lead transmigrates into the body of an old lady and leads her family to wealth. There's no romantic pairing or ambiguity, and it ends abruptly, but it's definitely worth watching. ୧((•̀ꇴ•))૭⁺✧
Lively, heartwarming, and carefree, without excessive constraints or a toxic female lead, it's all about doing what you love. The ending was so sudden; so many things were still unfinished. I was really getting into it, and then it was gone! 🤦🤦🤦
I love stories like this where the female lead is clear-headed, independent, and focused on her career. The plot doesn't drag, and the family lives a peaceful and simple life together. The storyline is simple, and I read the whole thing in one go—it was so captivating! The only downside was the ending was too rushed.
Just like stories where the protagonist is single-mindedly focused on their career, this short story is extremely vivid. The author clearly put in a lot of effort, consulting numerous sources; the logic is strong, and the writing is excellent. In short, I really enjoyed it.
I skimmed through it, and the female lead seemed quite detached, essentially living her own life. Unlike other stories where the protagonist arrives at her family penniless, this one is quite wealthy. The eldest son and his wife are good in every way; the eldest son worked in the fields with his father from a young age and took on the family responsibilities after his father's death.
In real life, I run a small business. I understand that competitors are often rivals (let alone relatives). Aside from its slightly skewed values and somewhat shallow and capricious approach to life, this book is still quite good.
While it may not boast the superpowers and speed at which most transmigrators amass wealth, I personally find the female protagonist's business acumen and money-making progress more realistic. A simple, ordinary life, but steadily building a career—that's the true essence of life. 👍 A mundane life combined with a passionate career can also make for a very interesting book 👍
