Looking for books like "Smiling at the Locust Blossoms, I Ask About the Past". A golden finger is fine, but it shouldn't drive the plot, and I especially don't want the protagonist sneaking off to the black market every day to sell things from it.

Looking for Quality Love in the Courtyard Fics, Not Written by Al
So many books written by AI these days make no sense and don't understand human nature. If they're all written by AI in the future and churned out in huge numbers, humanity will be the one left speechless. I get tired of AI books after just a few chapters. What a waste of time. Please recommend something good.

Fellow Courtyard Novel Fans, Recommend Some Books That Actually Make Sense
Honestly, those courtyard-house novels use the period as a thin cover for an alternate-history setting. They're not really about what happened in the courtyard itself. A lot of the writers still haven't grasped the point.

It's just a matter of personal preference: I don't really like the "perfect victim" trope, where the female lead has to be flawless and suffer endless injustices before she can retaliate. There have been too many of these kinds of plots in recent years, so it inevitably feels mediocre and lacks a bit of originality. I neither dislike nor hate it; it's decent and worth following. I wish the author continued success with updates, and hope the rest is even more exciting!
It's okay as a lighthearted, enjoyable read.
