Why Are There So Many Romance Stories in Female-Oriented Fiction? Any High-Quality No-CP Novels?
Any genre is fine. No romance, and please don't have every guy fall in love with the protagonist at first sight. Please!

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.
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?

The female lead got into character so quickly! But the character setting is quite interesting. I've seen so many stories where an old lady can become beautiful again, have a bunch of grandchildren, and remarry. This kind of story without a male lead is pretty good.
The writing is quite good, but in chapter 38, when Miaozhen was tipping off Zhu Damao, the author used the word "soft" twice to describe how Zhu Damao accidentally bumped into Miaozhen, which felt very uncomfortable. After the series ended, I had a good sip and realized that Miao Zhen was indeed still with that Zhu Damao 😅
Beautiful, wonderful, absolutely wonderful! First of all, the female lead has no romantic partner; she is a natural god who pulls out an axe. Secondly, the author's writing style is good, humorous yet not overly dramatic, and the characters are all well-developed.
Overall, this is a well-written author, and this is probably the second farming novel I've read from cover to cover since I started reading Tomato (a popular author). The key is that there's no romantic pairing or ambiguity. The protagonist is kind-hearted but not a saint, which is a particularly good quality. There aren't any truly awful characters, though I don't know how to describe them.
I've finished reading it all. Since joining Tomato's fan club, I've read no fewer than a hundred time-travel novels. This book's setting and imagination are refreshingly unique, avoiding many of the clichéd and overused time-travel plot points. 👍[OK] The author's writing style is humorous and interesting, the setting of the space is also good, and it promotes positive energy in terms of merit.
I've read almost 60 chapters so far, and it's pretty good. I'm not reading anymore. I'm deducting one point because the author's descriptions of the female lead's son farting after eating too many sweet potatoes and the mentally challenged man needing to use the toilet after eating chili peppers were too detailed. It was ridiculous, the imagery was too vivid, and it made me sick.
The process of fleeing the famine was essentially a process of recruiting a group, so the escape itself wasn't arduous at all. The main advantage was the female protagonist's clever time travel; she transmigrated into the body of a tall, strong, and powerful female butcher, making her entire family incredibly skilled in combat – a huge advantage in ancient times. In short, this is a satisfying and enjoyable read.
Although the details are trivial, they are vivid and relatable, making it very engaging 👍. It's worth looking forward to; hopefully, it won't disappoint later on.
There are only two words: It's very beautiful.
It's a great read! The main characters are vividly portrayed, and the writing is excellent! Please update soon!
