Looking for High-Quality Farming Novels, From a Veteran Reader With Picky Taste
Recommendations, please!
Rated 9.4 or Higher, No CP. I'll Read Anything
I read all kinds of books, so recommend whatever. Just don't recommend books with terrible ratings in the eights. I only ask that there be a CP. Other than those two things, I'll read anything: schemes for power, transmigration, fantasy, horror, modern, historical, comedy, whatever oddball stuff you've got.
I Love Ancient-Era Flight-from-Famine Stories. A Golden Finger Is Fine, but the Plot Must Be Logically Sound
Looking for books similar to "Zombie Catastrophe: A Survival Guide to the Ancient Apocalypse." Like this one, where the protagonist survives even without a golden finger. I'm looking for an ancient-era famine escape story that's meticulous, meticulous, and more meticulous. A golden finger is fine, but everything the protagonist has must have a clear source, and...
I'm into Farming Novels Lately. Preferably with a Pocket Dimension, Completed, and Not Angsty
Looking for stories about farming, raising children, and building wealth, with few scheming women and a strong, fiercely protective female lead. Ideally set in ancient times.

I Recently Got Into Stories About Transmigrating Into an Old Lady, Any Recommendations?
As the title says, I’ve only read "Old Me Still Has a Young Man’s Ambition" and "Transmigrated into a Top-Grade Old Lady".
Farming Stories, but No Constant Wild Boars and Rabbits, No Inviting People to Dinner, and No Red-Braised Pork
Looking for books similar to In a Year of Famine, the Whole Village Chews Tree Bark, but I Have a System and a Warehouse Full of Meat.
In a Reading Slump, I Came to the Book Slump Forum for Recommendations, Only to Find Everyone Else Was in a Slump Too
Any novel you think is good. I don't care about the genre, only the quality of the writing.
Looking for Stories About a Close-Knit Family or Village, with No Terrible Relatives
Any genre is fine, as the title says. Thanks, everyone. Preferably something where the protagonist helps everyone get rich. No awful people, please, no awful people.
Please Recommend Farming Stories With No Romance!!! Female Lead’s POV, Thank You!
Looking for Ancient-to-Modern Transmigration! Ratings of 9.7 or 9.8, Please!
I haven't found any good modern-day novels on Tomato. Please recommend some high-quality stories with no romance! I don't want anything dumbed down! Thanks, everyone! (bows 🙇)
Farming, No Romance, No Family, Just One Person on Their Own
Taking Modern Supplies to Ancient Times and Bringing Ancient Artifacts Back to the Modern World
Farming Stories with a Pocket Dimension: Put It to Use, Don't Let It Just Sit There!!
Can we get some farming stories where the heroine actually makes good use of her storage space? If the space supermarket has supplies, she should just use them. Don't make the golden finger useless by having her too timid to take even a bit of meat out of the space!! And no self-sacrificing heroines either. I want a satisfying story with a storage space.
Any No-CP Farming, Business-Building, or Food Stories?
Looking for Stories That Connect the Modern Era with Either Ancient Times or a Historical Period
I love stories where someone transmigrates to the modern world to resell things, then goes back and resells things there, too. Sadly, there are so few of them now 😭
No-Romance Farming Stories (If You Don’t Understand What “No Romance” Means, Don’t Recommend Anything)
I want books similar to Owe the System Six Hundred Million, Get Rich Through Farming. The protagonist can be male or female. No ambiguous relationships, no saintly protagonists, no annoying top-tier relatives, no transmigration into an old woman, and no raising children. A System or spatial storage is fine, as are mountain and coastal foraging.
No-Romance Farming Stories (No Female Lead Raising a Bunch of Sons)
Any Stories About Someone Transmigrating as an Old Lady Who Doesn’t Date? No CP, No CP.
I read stories about transmigrating into an old lady because I want to see someone finally break free of the misery of being oppressed in the name of filial piety. No romance for the protagonist: let her focus on farming or building a career. Could we please stop having people transmigrate into old ladies with sons and grandchildren, only to use all kinds of miraculous pills after transmigrating and then fall in love?
Please Recommend Some Fresh, Good Stories
Please recommend new books. I've already read so many of the popular ones, and I feel like I've lost interest in reading. Please, please recommend something new. The kids are on vacation, and I'm so bored.
Female-Led Stories Like My Supermarket Connects Ancient and Modern Times and My B&B Connects to Ancient Times
Stories where a home, supermarket, kitchen, guesthouse, or farm stay connects to ancient times, the future, or multiple planes. It doesn't matter whether they report it or keep it secret.

Overall, it's not bad. It's not a wish-fulfillment story where the characters have unrealistic power levels and their abilities develop. However, the word choice is somewhat lacking. There's a lot of formal language mixed in with colloquial speech, and the ancient characters' speech also incorporates many modern terms.
Up until around chapter 240, it was quite good. The female protagonist slowly awakened, worked hard to earn money, accepted new ideas, left her husband with her children, and found her daughter who had been sold. Both daughters were well-written.
It's incredibly realistic; the pitifulness, hatefulness, and greed of the ordinary people are portrayed vividly. The female protagonist, initially seen as someone whose pitifulness is often accompanied by reprehensibility, gradually matures into an independent and self-reliant individual, slowly finding her way as a mother and ultimately becoming an extraordinary woman.
So far it's not bad. The ratings are too low, so I'll give it my support. I hope the author doesn't abandon the story. The female lead's thinking is very feudal at first, but she gradually changes. The child is also very likable and not annoying to read. The pace of moving supplies is relatively slow because it's quite restrained. I hope it stays that way.
Such a good story, how could it get such a low score?! I read over ten chapters and couldn't wait to leave a comment! The author's skill is profound; the portrayal of the inferiority complex, timidity, and gratitude of women who were exploited in ancient times is incredibly apt! The fear, confusion, and helplessness of being transported to an unknown world are also very well done!
I really like the female lead in this story. You can see her grow step by step, and the overpowered abilities aren't too excessive, which I really appreciate. However, the eldest daughter's character is a bit disjointed, and then a killer boyfriend suddenly appears out of nowhere.
A book rated 9.5 or higher, with excellent writing, strong logic, a female lead with sound values, and several children, each with their own distinct personality, but all sensible and good kids. The supporting characters are a mix of good and bad, showcasing both heartwarming humanity and heartbreaking ugliness.
I've read this far without any major issues, except for the romantic subplot involving Luo Ling and an assassin, which makes it less of a typical farming story. The author's writing style is simple and smooth, avoiding both tedious rambling and melodramatic plot points. The female lead steadily raises her children and gradually builds a good life.
I've read the latest chapter, and it's quite good. The female lead is slowly improving and changing herself, making up for her past mistakes. Although she has a "golden finger" (a special ability to turn enemies into advantages), the overall plot is quite well-structured, and the descriptions of ancient life are relatively realistic.
I couldn't help but comment even before reading further. I really like the second daughter of the female lead, Zhao Lan; she's incredibly filial, sensible, and intelligent. The female lead is also honest but not naive. So far, there haven't been any major flaws. The female lead is a very down-to-earth rural woman, without any superhuman abilities. It's not a mindless wish-fulfillment story, but the pacing is very comfortable. I enjoy watching the female lead's family's life gradually improve.
