Looking for Masterpieces, but Not Anything on the Recommendation Rankings
Don't recommend anything where the protagonist's surname is Ye or Ling, where the protagonist has a cute little sister, or where the protagonist is a bleeding-heart do-gooder. In short, no stupid novels. The darker and more ruthless, the better! Kill, kill, kill!!!

Please Recommend Engrossing Tomato Novels Without Stupid Plotting
Villain, urban, or fantasy novels are all fine 😊 I'm a seasoned reader of ten years, so please don't recommend beginner-level novels; I can't get into them. I'm older now and hope to read something with a well-reasoned, tightly plotted story. I don't mind power fantasies, but I don't want everyone else to act stupid just to make the protagonist look smart.
Quality Period Dramas for a Male Audience
Era fiction that sticks close to history and has intelligent characters. Do not recommend simplistic wish-fulfillment stories, I cannot read them.

How Can I Search All of Tomato and Not Find a Single Period-Era Novel from a Man's Perspective Where He Doesn't Go to the Countryside???
No going to the countryside, no going to the countryside, no going to the countryside. I'm saying it three times because it's important!!! Working in the city is great. Otherwise, so many people wouldn't refuse to go to the countryside and do hard labor. Preferably no CP. The male lead can have male and female friends, but not in the main story...

This looks promising; it should be able to be written quite a bit longer. Take your time, don't rush it and end up with a bad ending.
It's actually better than those novels about birds and beasts, but the updates are a bit slow. I really like the writing style of your novel. Keep it up!
Simplicity is the essence of life; grand gestures aren't necessary. A true portrayal of life is what makes it engaging; 99% of people are ordinary. Four stars for now.
Yes, there are characters from traditional courtyard houses, but there aren't too many extraneous details. To be honest, I quite like this kind of courtyard house story. I would really enjoy it if it maintained this format.
Putting everything else aside, I'd give it 4 stars just because it hasn't included repetitive plot points from the courtyard house yet. I'd give it 5 stars because I want to see more of your tomb raiding stories; it feels like it could be a long story (most stories about courtyard houses are just similar to the TV shows, which gets boring). (I watched the courtyard house story mainly because of the era it depicted.)
It's over 200 words, a pretty good slice-of-life story. I personally think it's good, with obvious strengths, and plenty of room for explicit content (not being a miser). The aesthetics are on point. The only downside is the slow pace of the timeline; there's a lot of writing about food, but people need to do other things in their daily lives, they can't just eat all the time.
It's quite well-written, with a steady pace. It blends the worldviews of traditional courtyard houses and the Ghost Blows Out the Light series, and the descriptions of daily life are realistic. There are no major flaws, and the opening is well-crafted. The only downside is that it feels a bit flat.
A rare and high-quality courtyard house novel: ① It mainly focuses on daily family life, with heartwarming interactions between the protagonist and his sister, lacking the harshness found in other courtyard house novels. ② The male lead is incredibly shrewd and calculating, which feels perfectly reasonable considering the era.
From the first picture of a thirteen-year-old to over two hundred pictures, is she still thirteen during the Lunar New Year? Is she forever thirteen?
This book is quite well written, but the rating is a bit low. Based on what's written so far, it could reach 90 points. I hope it gets faster and better as it goes on. Keep up the good work, author!
