    "The Young Man with Flowers in His Hair" perfectly captures the transmigration trope.

    The writing style isn't amateurish, and the author's track record guarantees no bad endings. The premise of this book is very interesting! The female protagonist works a day job in modern times and then returns to ancient times to raise a child. There's no romance; it's purely about farming and daily life! It's a very enjoyable read! The updates are very frequent, every day!
