Any More Realistic Stories Set in a Particular Era? Looking for Recs
A lot of period dramas these days have living conditions better than ours now. It feels a bit fake.
Stories Set in the 1950s, 60s, or 70s. Good Writing, Please. No Transmigration-and-Raising-Kids Plots
The Male Lead Returns to the 1980s or 1990s but Does Not Hit or Scold His Wife and Children
Looking for System-Space Stories About Moving to Beijing from the 1940s or 1950s
Any courtyard stories that aren't Love in the Courtyard? Other courtyard novels are fine, and stories about escaping famine to settle in the capital are good too. Ideally over a million characters. Please 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Looking for Gentle, Heartwarming Stories Set in a Bygone Era
Stories Set in a Bygone Era: Military Wives, Following Their Husbands to the Army, and a Sensible Plot. No Brain-Dead Writing, It’s Infuriating.
Are there any normal stories? I really can’t stomach brain-dead ones.
A Hoarder's Dream: Stories About Stockpiling Supplies and Having a Storage Space, Please
The writing! The writing! I'm emphasizing that I want good prose 👌 Modern or period settings are both fine, preferably with no CP. Either a male or female perspective is fine. Please, no stories where the protagonist starts with hundreds of billions or trillions; I can't even dream of that much money. I love detailed stockpiling scenes, where they happily store food for winter like a little squirrel.
Looking for a Beautiful, Frail Female Lead Who’s Constantly Bullied by the Male Lead, with a Forced-Occupation Romance
I want a story where the female lead is delicate and weak and gets forced into a relationship. The male lead bullies her all the time, and she can't fight back. She should be incredibly beautiful, the kind who makes you fall for her at first sight: frail, delicate, and sweet-natured.

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.
A Period-Era Heroine Works at a State Supply and Marketing Cooperative Instead of Going to the Countryside, Thanks to Her Good Family Background
Looking for Period-Era Stories, No Rebirth or Pocket Dimension
To be precise, I'm looking for something more unusual, not the same old, tired story. Ideally, it should be a romance between the male and female leads. 😊😊

Novels Set in the 1950s, 60s, 70s, or 80s with a Working Heroine
I'd like stories where the protagonist works at a state-run restaurant, steel mill, textile factory, or food factory, works as a factory announcer, keeps score for the production team, or has an office job at a factory. Something like "I Traveled to the 1970s with a Work Ethic System and Earned Eighty-Eight Paychecks".
Looking for a Historical-Era Story Where the Female Lead Won't Raise Someone Else's Child or Be a Doormat
No stepmothers, or anything like that. I can't handle raising kids right from the start.
Female Characters in Siheyuan Stories: The Three Aunts and Jia Zhangshi
Reader comments 19
Translated by Google Translate




















































































































The Siheyuan written by the female author is not so calculated, but still, when you succeed, you will be surrounded by good people.
Good-looking is just two words, harmony and beauty are so good, one day will kill this one and cripple that one. If you go, you won't survive two episodes, day by day.
It's quite good-looking. I felt like there were a lot of shortcomings at the beginning, but I was able to watch it. The disadvantage is that the heroine is too young at the beginning, but there are also many stories from other eras where people are 16 years old, find a partner at 17 years old, and get married at 18 or 19 years old. It feels pretty good too
The writing is quite good, and I am particularly envious of the heroine's golden fingers. It was my dream! When I first read the comments, I saw that the heroine kept giving. I don't even want to watch it. Then I saw the heroine's aunt, who cooked, washed clothes, and took care of the housework for the heroine, which was equivalent to an all-around nanny. I just think it looks pretty good.
I think it's very interesting, and there are very few stories about courtyard houses with female protagonists. This small track was found by the author 🤭 🤭 🤭 It's very good
Everything else is good, except that the heroine got married too early. I also want to read her story in the courtyard, hey
It's okay, but it's too idealistic. The partner came out in a few days and got married directly. The Yan family's work was also solved in three steps. I didn't want to read anymore.
Very good. I hope there will be more updates. It's much better than the same type I saw before.
It's okay, maybe it's not perfect in many places, but I can watch it.
Personally, I think it's pretty good-looking, not so troublesome, and it's a harmonious and warm life.
