Looking for Food-Themed Stories Rated 9.0 or Above, with Upright Values
If there are any set in prehistoric times, that would be even better, something like Transmigrating to the Beast World: A Foraging Journal.
Your Number-One Era Novel
Period Pieces! What's Your Number One Pick?
I want to read something like "The Day I Died, My Rough-and-Ready Husband Held Me and Cried All Night".
Looking for a More Realistic Story Set in a Past Era, Nothing Too Exaggerated, With Sensible Characters
Looking for something like "Transmigrating into a Book: A Seventies Gossip Lover's Self-Cultivation". I want a cautious, clever female lead. Period novels need to be a little more grounded, after all.
Classic Historical-Era Fiction

Looking for Food Stories With Braised Intestines and Red-Braised Pork. Ancient or Period Settings Are Fine 😘
Looking for a Military Marriage in a Period-Era Story 🔥 The Heroine Can Join Her Husband at His Posting, and It’s Sweet
Looking for books like "Military Marriage in the 1970s: After Joining the Army, She Takes the Family Compound by Storm". Stories about transmigrating into a book, transmigrating to a bygone era, being reborn, traveling from ancient times to the modern day, or the apocalypse are all fine. I like heroines who can embroider, paint, cook, or write novels.
Any Child-Rearing Novels With Fair, Chubby, Super-Cute Little Ones?
Any childcare stories? The kind with a chubby, adorable little one who's as cute as can be.
Everyday Food Stories, Nothing Too Over-the-Top
Are There Any Foodie Novels on Tomato?
Male- or female-oriented novels are both fine. No harems with three thousand beauties. Either no female lead, or just one. For female-oriented novels, anything goes, since I’m a total hypocrite about this. No brainless characters who get dumbed down!
Any Stories About Raising Kids in a Bygone Era? I've Been Looking for Ages, but Haven't Found a Single One I Can Stick With
Any stories about raising kids in a bygone era? They have to be completed. I've been looking for ages and can't find a single one I can get into. It doesn't have to be a period story; feel-good stories are fine too. Please, I'm begging you 🙏🙏🙏 This kid's going crazy 😭
Recommend Some Period-Era Stories Worth Reading Twice or Three Times
Military Marriage Stories Where the Couple Moves to the Husband’s Posting After the Wedding: Completed Only
The hero is a soldier, and the heroine is no pushover either.
Period Romance with an Established Military Marriage: A Gruff Officer and a Delicate Heroine
The female lead transmigrates into a married woman's body. The male lead is illiterate, so he chose the educated original owner through matchmaking. She was raised by a capitalist grandmother, so she was less affected by the times and had a rather bourgeois lifestyle. I think there was a child too, though I don't remember clearly. The child was called Young Master and was ostracized...
Period Novel: The Male Lead Is a Soldier, and the Female Lead Moves with Him After They Marry

Looking for a Historical-Era Story About Following the Army, Where the Female Lead Already Has a Baby and Raises Them Little by Little
A Period Story Where the Female Lead Stockpiles Goods by the Ton Before She Transmigrates
If that's not what you're looking for, please skip this. I've recently gotten into these. I only want stories set in a past era, no System novels and no stories with obnoxious, shameless characters.
Looking for Stories Where the Female Lead Interacts Lovingly With Her Baby After Giving Birth
I’ve been reading novels about adorable babies lately, and the warm interactions between mothers and children really got to me. The babies’ behavior is just so cute (๑•.•๑). P.S. I’d like the male lead to be there for the birth, and the baby should still be too young to talk.
I'm Out of Things to Read. Looking for High-Quality Stories with Great Writing and a Smooth, Unawkward Plot
I'm more interested in historical settings. Farming, fantasy, palace intrigue, romance, or male-male pairings are all fine, as long as the writing and plot are good. Ideally, there shouldn't be any misunderstandings between the leads. These days I drop so many novels before I even get halfway through. The ratings are ridiculously inflated, and I don't even want to get started on the leads' characterizations.
A Different Kind of Historical-Era Story!
Looking for books similar to "The Unfavored Second Son in a Period Novel Marries into a Military Compound Family (Zuo Ye, Chang Feng)". It's not like your typical period novel! I stayed up all night reading it.

Han Shuang x Zhang Jianmin. ❤️"The bustling streets and alleys, when gathered together, are a scene of everyday life; when laid out, they reveal the human condition." I feel this kind of subject matter is a bit novel. Han Shuang is herself from beginning to end, not a time-traveling woman who is wronged to raise someone else's child.
Overall, it's pretty good. The female lead travels from that era to the post-apocalyptic world and then returns. In the early stages, the female lead, Weiwei, is too kind, unlike someone who has lived in the post-apocalyptic world. Her character development is also a bit shaky. However, the later parts are very well written, depicting everyday family life in a warm and cozy way.
The original female protagonist who transmigrated back from the apocalypse has wood-type superpowers, a spatial ability, superb traditional Chinese medicine skills, amazing cooking skills, a military marriage, two super cute sons, and two adorable dogs. There aren't any extreme characters, and the overall writing style is gentle and heartwarming, which is quite good. The only regret is that it's still being serialized. Author, please keep updating!
The baby and the body belong to the female protagonist, unlike other novels of the same genre where the original owner's body is taken over. Most novels portray the original owner as being like Chu Sheng, which I find unacceptable. Da Bao, Xiao Bao, and Jun Bao are all adorable and very realistic. Da Bao, as the older brother, is also a child at heart, showing his love for his younger brother with a childlike spirit. Overall, five stars!!! Keep up the good work, author!!!
Finally found a historical fiction novel without too many awful characters! The author is fantastic!
It's great! Finally, there are fewer awful characters, and the sisters-in-law also want to eat well. I love it so much! Author, I'm waiting for you every day now!
It's a heartwarming story, without too much scheming and intrigue.
It looks pretty good so far. There's no hostility between my wife's family and my husband's family; they're both quite harmonious. Things were alright after I went to join the army. It's quite heartwarming. This is my type. My personal recommendation is not to use your brain too much when reading novels, it will be very tiring. Don't worry about the logic or background, just enjoy it for fun.
I've been searching for a long time for novels where the female lead has a special ability and there are no villains. This long, flowing novel is so good—not too intellectually taxing, and hilarious! It's just too short; I want to read it again. I hope they write similar novels again, preferably in an ancient setting. I really love this type of novel.
[The original female lead who transmigrated back from the apocalypse + wood-type superpowers + spatial abilities + superb traditional Chinese medicine skills + amazing cooking skills + military marriage + two super cute sons + two adorable dogs] Overall, it's a good story. There's no hostility, and the relationship between the bride's and groom's families is harmonious.
