Looking for books like Making Others Happy? I'd Rather Make Myself Happy. Historical-era story with a female lead. It doesn't matter whether she transmigrates or has a golden finger, but it shouldn't be brainless or too showy.

Any No-CP Historical-Era Stories? No Quick Transmigration, I’m Sick of Those

No CP + period setting, female lead stockpiles supplies, not a naive protagonist, and she has a golden finger! It absolutely must have no CP. No more quick transmigration! Out of the 180 books on my reading list, 150 are quick transmigration. Please don't recommend any more! I'm begging you! I don't like quick transmigration, but I dislike romance even more.

I'm Tired of Stories About Sent-Down Female Youths or Rich Heiresses Pairing Up With Rugged Men

A beautiful, wealthy heiress with money, connections, and a doting family, but she's always forced to move to the countryside for one reason or another. Then she's too pampered to do anything, so she has to find some rough country man to do it all for her. I'm so tired of this trope. I used to like it, but now I think they're completely mismatched. They're from different worlds.

Everyone’s Favorite Stories, Especially Period Pieces with a Four- or Five-Year-Old Little Darling

Historical romance, or modern romance is fine too. The heroine just shouldn’t act like she’s three years old. Cultivation stories are fine too. I want her to be adored by everyone! The moral outlook has to be upright!!

Are Modern-Era Stories All Military Marriages Now? Anything Without a Military Husband Is Rough

No rugged men. Apart from those, all I get are military romances. I'm looking for science and research stories, not military romances.

I’m Out of Books to Read! Aaaah! 😱

Modern romance, historical costume dramas, or period pieces are all fine. I'd prefer a period piece, but stories where someone from ancient times comes to the modern day or ones set in the Qing dynasty are fine too.
