Looking for Good Farming Stories With Smart Characters
Why do farming novels always have princes, heirs, and royal sons? Can't we have something cozier, without a prince or heir as the male lead, and without him constantly having to save people?
Looking for Ancient Times Transmigration Stories About Being Born into the Past and Living a Serious Life. I’ve Always Thought People Back Then Were Smarter Than Us
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.
I Just Love Hard-Mode Famine Escapes! Recommendations, Please, No Pocket Dimension
No pocket dimensions, no golden finger. I like hard mode. That's what makes it exciting.
Looking for a Low-Key, Everyday Love Story Between Ordinary People
I've read lots of books where the protagonist has a cheat. Now I want an ordinary love story and an ordinary, peaceful life. Historical or modern romance is fine, any era. I'm tired of generals, marquises, CEOs, and emperors. I'd like to read stories where their subordinates are the main characters.
Any Quiet, Unassuming Books That Are Still Really Good?
Any recommendations for books that are low-key but really good?
Looking for Farming and Settlement-Building Stories
Looking for farming and world-building novels, preferably with elements like plant spirits, spiritual power, mental power, and supernatural abilities.
Farming, Real Farming
I want genuine farming details: what seedlings to plant each month, how to get seeds to sprout, what to do when pests show up, and so on. I really need this, please!
Looking for Quality Urban Realism and Farming Stories
Looking for books like A Joyful Life Back in 1997. The protagonist isn’t arrogant or affected, and doesn’t live only for themself. They’re always considerate of others, with dreams, passion, and a sense of responsibility...

The real farm text was mediocre, and she did not marry a scholar (haha, I wanted to hook up with a scholar to avoid being forced into marriage, but the other party did not like the heroine, and euphemistically said that if she did not pass the exam, she would not get married. Although the heroine was a little disappointed, she also understood that she met an Orion boy unexpectedly on the way back, and it was a lifetime from then on). Nor did she use the knowledge from her previous life to attract the attention of the government. She made a living growing mushrooms and peonies in the village until she died. There are golden fingers, but they are not thick. They just make the crops grow a little better. It is considered a small wealthy family. The heroine does not have many alternative ideas. Following the trajectory of the ancients, she became a mother at the age of 17 and a grandmother at the age of 36.
Very pretty! I just like this kind of plain farming article, don't meet any princes and generals, there is no overnight riches, only down-to-earth efforts to get rid of poverty and become rich, and you will be safe with a small amount of wealth! It's just too short!
The author records the survival skills of the heroine in detail in a straightforward manner. The short article contains no scum and no fights, a pastoral life without fighting against the world, and simple and warm happiness. After reading it, people feel calm and yearning.
It's very short and the timeline goes by very quickly. Sometimes I dislike the fact that the author has to write five, six, seven or eight chapters for one day's events. But this author writes two or three chapters about someone's events for several years. It's not bad. It's a very dull story. It would be great if the content were richer. The author's strength is there. I look forward to the next book.
The plot is short and simple, and the characters' lives are simple and unrestrained! A favorite book! 👍👍👍👍👍
Ordinary happiness, quite warm
Although it's short, it's pretty good and worth watching.
It is well written and encourages the author.
Traveling through farming, there is no bloodshed, a flat and warm farming life.
The story line develops a bit quickly, but even though it is short, the plot at the beginning is also very exciting. A plain and warm life is quite satisfying.
