I Need Ancient-Era Food and Farming Novels!

It's been a long time since I logged in to the writer's side, and I read all your comments today. First of all, I would like to thank you all for your companionship and support, and also for your valuable opinions. This is my first book, and my cultural level is not very high. I wrote this novel entirely because I was too nostalgic for the life I had with my grandparents when I was a child. The writing may be very unfamiliar, and I also lack a lot of common sense. I am describing it more like gossip. I don't want to write anything sadistic or deeper, because I am simple-minded and don't have enough brains. It is impossible to make money from this book, because I know what level I am. This book is my childhood fantasy, a warm family, a harmonious team and neighbors. Everyone has their own way of writing. If you don't like reading, just leave it. I am just simple and want to finish this book [love], thank you
It's pretty good. The plot is simple and very close to life. The plot is a warm one. There are no super relatives or anything like that. The whole story is basically about food. I often stopped to learn how to cook. Haha, I actually made it. It's not bad. I'm a novice. I can't understand it if it's too profound. This book is very suitable for me.
It is a simple and relaxing novel. I saw earlier that food articles should not only be about food, and I was a little confused. Is there anything wrong with food articles being all about food? I like to read this kind of writing that is all about eating. I think it tastes very good and you can learn how to cook. Every time I read it, I want to eat something. Maybe because I am a novice, I like to read this kind of novice article. It is effortless and easy. There are no fights and fights. Come on [blow kiss]
I like it, I feel hungry just looking at it, so greedy
It makes me hungry. At this moment, I want to eat a bowl of warm noodle soup with some sliced meat [I'm about to cry]. I wish there were more, but it's not enough.
I listen to it to pass the time. I'm very satisfied without the best. I feel hungry after watching it at night, so I listen to it while eating. When I feel hungry, I eat [laughs]
The writing is a bit verbose in some places, but the food part is still very good. Keep up the good work, author! ! ! ! !
It's very interesting. The heroine is kind, good at cooking, farming, making the villagers rich, and contributing to the country.
Five hundred thousand words, wow, persistence is victory, come on
Now it seems that there is no best one. The villagers are kind and like to catch up with Haiwen. Come on, come on [Like][Like]
