Looking for books like "Siheyuan: Uncle Yi Has a Son". Something along these lines. I searched and found that almost all stories set in that era have female protagonists, with hardly any male protagonists, so I wanted to ask if anyone knows of similar books.

Transmigrating into a Book, School Setting, Cool and Aloof Background Character
The heroine transmigrates into a school-life novel, minds her own business, and pursues scientific research. Absolutely no beloved-by-everyone heroine!!! And no being doted on by the whole family either!!! I really can't stand that.

Looking for Household-Intrigue Novels Where the Heroine Becomes the Principal Wife or a Concubine and Fights for Herself and Her Children
I want palace-intrigue household drama. Nothing where the heroine simply lies flat or clings to someone's coattails. If clinging to someone's coattails lets you be treated as an equal, then you might as well not write an ancient-setting story at all: how fake is that? Life before marriage and scheming for a marriage alliance are fine, such as the perspectives of Lin Xiaoniang and Molan in The Story of Minglan.

The more I read, the more interesting it gets! The Lin family can pull off such a comeback! Don't let Lin Ruhai and Jia Min pretend to be so affectionate. Keep writing!
I think it's very well written, and the descriptions of human nature are also very good. For example, Jia Min clearly doesn't like her husband taking a concubine, but because of her reputation, she has no choice but to let her husband take a concubine. Then she uses all sorts of methods to harm the concubine and her child. I think that feels very realistic.
If the author follows this writing style, then if the female protagonist treats Lin Daiyu well after Jia Min's death, then she is the reincarnation of a saint.
The ratings are extremely polarized, but I feel the flaws don't outweigh the merits; overall it's quite good. The story is also known as "How to Survive Under the Hands of Two Perverted, Love-Obsessed Men." The development is a bit too outrageous.
That makes a lot of sense. That's probably how Jia Min was in the original book. Otherwise, how could a man who could father children and have several concubines end up with only the naturally weak Lin Daiyu surviving? Even a six-year-old boy could die of illness?
It's a very good read. Although the female lead is a concubine, men in ancient times were supposed to be like the male lead—respecting their principal wife, valuing their offspring, and weighing the pros and cons for the sake of the family. The villain, Jia Min, is rather dim-witted, but it's precisely this dim-wittedness that makes her less hateful. The female lead relies on her special abilities to survive; it's a story of hardship followed by happiness. A super exciting read.
This is a different kind of Dream of the Red Chamber fanfiction. It doesn't make Lin Hai fall in love with the female lead, since she's just a concubine. Isn't that normal in a world where concubines are bought and sold? From another perspective, isn't this just the legendary sweet romance novel? The male lead is Lin Ruhai, and the female lead is Jia Min. Alas, my beloved Lin Daiyu!
Daiyu's experiences in *Dream of the Red Chamber* are indeed difficult for someone like me, who only skimmed through the novel, to understand. Although her parents died early, her father's family was a prominent clan with high-ranking officials, yet none of his relatives cared for her.
There aren't many writers on this site who write about *Dream of the Red Chamber*, and even fewer who write it well. This article is quite good; I look forward to its continued development. [Requesting more updates!]
It all depends on your perspective. Those who are favored often act with impunity. Lin Ruhai's treatment of his principal wife was truly remarkable for that era. While his treatment of his concubines was somewhat cruel, wasn't that normal? The principal wife is the true wife.
