A Peaceful Life in a Yanjing Courtyard, Beginning in 1945

Historical-Era Fiction

Any good completed novels set in a particular historical era? Completed, please.

Male-Lead Period-Era Fiction + Portable Space + System. No Female Leads

I've read pretty much all the courtyard-house stories.

Period-Era Stories!!! Period-Era Stories!!!

Can anyone recommend some good stories set in a particular historical era? Thanks, everyone!

Period-Era Story, Male Lead Transmigrates, Has a Pocket Dimension

Looking for Realistic Republican-Era or Period Dramas

I like calm, everyday stories without awful relatives: just a happy family working hard to earn money and improve their lives. Keep the golden finger subtle, not overpowered.

Period-Era Fiction from the Male Lead’s Perspective

From the male lead's perspective, preferably with only one female lead.

Stories Set in the 1950S, 60S, or 70S. Good Writing, Please. No Transmigration-and-Raising-Kids Plots

Period-Era Stories with No Rural Relocation, Black Market, Unrequited Devotion, Military Marriage, or Terrible In-Laws

Reborn in a Bygone Era, Rising to Leadership

Siheyuan Stories Set in Beiping Around 1945

A large detached courtyard house bought around 1945, woodworking, a built-in personal space, an eye for antiques, and carving.

Stories About Being Born into the 1940S or 1950S

A Typical Period Novel With a Small Golden Finger and a Logical Plot

Deal-breakers: stories that dumb down the characters, lavish black-market trading, or lovesick characters.

Please Recommend Novels Set in Beijing in the 1960S and 1970S
