Recently Gotten into Slice-of-Life and Lighthearted Stories
I've recently gotten hooked on slice-of-life and lighthearted stories.
Any Stories Where the Heroine Transmigrated Many Years Ago?
Historical romance. The female lead transmigrated here many years ago and has already built up her own power base. Both leads are strong. Please, please!
Looking for a Slice-of-Life Story About the Daughter of a Minor Official in Ancient Times, With No Golden Finger
Looking for books like A Small-Town Woman's Everyday Journey to Prosperity in Bianjing.
Any Good Historical Romance About Everyday Family and Neighborhood Life in an Ancient Town?
Food Stories About Selling Snacks at a Street Stall
Ancient Setting, Cozy, Everyday Life, and Farming
Are there any warm, slice-of-life farming stories where someone transmigrates to ancient times? Modern settings are fine too. No wars for supremacy and no raising armies.
Transmigrating into the Family of a Landowner, a Small Household, or a Minor Official
I want to read something like "The Transmigrated Female Clerk Becomes a Prison Guard". I don't want a heroine who starts out with absolutely nothing. I'd prefer her to have a little family wealth, and ideally for it to be a food-focused story.
Please Recommend Medical and Farming Novels Like Shanshan Youyao
Looking for books like There Is Medicine in the Mountains. No pocket dimensions, no romance, and no awful characters.

The beginning was very realistic, with the female lead leading her family to set up a stall to make money, encountering all sorts of strange people, which she cleverly resolved. The pace quickened later on, and the male lead, a cunning guy, consistently did his best to help the female lead. The ending was open-ended, suggesting the female and male leads would likely end up together.
The cost of the goods sold is unclear. Back then, chicken feet probably weren't sold separately, and even if they were, the quantity wouldn't have been that large.
So beautiful! So beautiful! Ahhhhhh!
The writing style is good, and the descriptions of the lives of ordinary people in ancient times are quite good.
It's good. Could you please give each episode a title? It would make it easier to read.
It's pretty good. I'm looking forward to Jiang Wang's storyline, haha.
It's a great read, the story unfolds smoothly and comfortably, and the plot has a good balance of tension and release.
A unique perspective, neither overly scathing nor escapist, allowing for a peaceful reading experience – a rare find.
So many awful characters! One minute the female lead's sister's awful ex-husband's family is causing trouble once, twice, three or four times, and the next minute her awful aunt's family is plotting against her.
It's quite good, very down-to-earth, and I really like the female lead's personality.
