Can I Get Some Normal Stories Set in a Particular Era?
No silly, naive heroines and no characters suddenly getting stupid. The male lead should be loyal and virtuous. Kids are fine, as are rebirth, transmigration into a book, transmigration, or native-born protagonists. Please, recommend something normal. I'm losing my mind trying to find a book.

This is a relatively positive novel, unlike other online novels that are all filled with nonsense and selfishness. The protagonist, living a luxurious and ostentatious life in a tenement, detached from the lives of ordinary people yet still interacting closely with them, wouldn't survive more than two episodes.
This is a sci-fi thriller disguised as a traditional Chinese courtyard house story. Perhaps it's a matter of personal taste, but the courtyard house chapters are indeed few. If you came specifically for the courtyard house, you might be a little disappointed. The rating is low; I personally think it should be around 8.5.
I enjoy reading this kind of story. Regardless of whether I'm doing well or not, this is my country, and I will always love it. No matter what I encounter, if things aren't going well, it just means I haven't tried hard enough. I can't blame others or take my anger out on the country; they don't deserve it. The country doesn't owe me anything.
It's a story disguised as a traditional courtyard house, but it's not bad. It's about seriously developing oneself and the country, and deserves five stars.
The storyline is vivid, and the fan fiction not only captures the essence of the original work but also reflects the author's creativity.
In my personal opinion, the book is well-written, with good writing style and technique. However, the outline and plot need careful polishing. Some plot points feel abrupt, and others are not well-developed. I hope the author can achieve a more perfect pacing in their next book.
There aren't many courtyard novels left that I can sit down and read with a calm mind.
It's a pretty good novel about a courtyard house, without too many unnecessary twists and turns.
A very good novel! It lacks the harshness of traditional courtyard houses and instead offers a more down-to-earth, human touch. Definitely worth reading! 👍👍👍
Good looks are just bad for your eyes and brain.
