Pure Farming or Transmigration Stories, No Reincarnation, No Pocket Dimension, and No Ridiculous Cheat Powers
I don't like ridiculous cheat powers. There's no such thing as a free lunch, after all.

I like things grounded and earned!

It's quite good. It's rare to find a transmigrated female lead who remembers to avenge the original owner of the body. Her values are also quite positive. She doesn't have any overpowered cheat codes, and there aren't many truly exceptional characters. Making money takes time and effort; the key is to get my nephew and his wife offline as soon as possible…
It's great! I stopped reading after chapter 333. There are still about 40 chapters left, so I'll save them up before continuing. I don't understand why the rating is so low. It's the best farming novel I've read on Tomato (a popular Chinese author) in all my years of reading.
It's a really good read, one of the few genuine farming novels out there. There aren't hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of taels of silver; the protagonist makes some food and earns only about 70 taels in half a year. There's no spatial ability, no system, no infrastructure obsession, no money-making machine, and no hints or premonitions.
It's quite a good read. It's a pure farming novel, without any outlandish cheat codes, sudden windfalls, forced children to take the imperial examinations, or any connections with royalty or nobles aiming to advance their careers in the capital. Many of them are stories of everyday life, flowing gently and uneventfully.
A very warm and peaceful story, it feels like it depicts ancient life under a modern system 🤭🤭🤭🤭 Because the most wicked people in the whole village are probably Liu Dacheng, who wanted to sell his cousin, and Zhao Dashu, who stole his sister-in-law; the most wicked person in the whole town is probably Chef Sun, who beat someone to death 😄 The food business is booming, there are family members…
Great! I love stories where there's no magic formula, but the protagonist gradually turns hardship into prosperity. Keep up the good work, author!
I finished reading it, and it was quite good. The handling of difficult situations was swift and decisive. The entire story revolves around building a fortune in a small town, without ever aiming for larger territories or even the imperial court, which made it enjoyable to read.
The author of this book demonstrates skill by writing about everyday life in a rich and varied manner and creating multifaceted and three-dimensional characters. Even though the time travelers didn't bring any special spatial abilities, they were still able to live a fulfilling and successful life. Their lives weren't spectacular, but they were ordinary yet extraordinary. This book consistently reflects Grandma Yu's goals for her retirement, and how those goals were achieved.
It's a great read. It's rare to find a farming novel with so many "golden finger" advantages. The female lead is just an ordinary person with decent cooking skills. She gradually teaches her children and leads her family to wealth. Although some prices are a bit outrageous—for example, an average person only earns 25 coins a day—the things she sells are generally quite expensive, like zongzi…
This novel is heartwarming. The family and the villagers all get along well. Even when there are difficult characters, they are quickly resolved without much drama or unnecessary conflict. These difficult characters don't take up too much of the storyline or the protagonist's plot, which is great. What's most comforting is the female lead's approach to raising her children.
