   Reader note

   The serialized novel, "Daily Life of Raising Children in Ancient Times," tells the story of two modern-day people who are both unmarried and childless. Due to a shared elevator accident, they are transported to the ancient world and inhabit the bodies of a married couple. The novel vividly portrays the psychology and thoughts of two modern people experiencing ancient life for the first time. The original male protagonist was a scholar who, along with the original female protagonist, had two sons and a daughter: a four-year-old son, a two-year-old son, and a six-month-old daughter. Upon their arrival in ancient times, the two are overwhelmed with the prospect of becoming parents. From initial chaos to becoming familiar with everything about their original lives, they experience the warmth and everyday life of family, growing from strangers to lovers. They strive to give their three children the love of parents and ensure their healthy growth. Later, after passing the imperial examination, they have twins. The male protagonist, in his previous life, was a high school politics teacher who had no interest in officialdom and politics. After passing the examination, he went to teach at Bailu Academy. The female protagonist, in her previous life, graduated with a degree in agronomy and became a university teacher, planning to improve ancient planting techniques. Both of them adhere to ancient rules, which is very important—adapting to the circumstances.

If you're looking for a power fantasy, this isn't for you. It's about an ordinary person's life, not a story about an overpowered female lead. There is a golden finger, but it barely appears.) A girl who had kept a low profile for fourteen years was discovered by accident, then killed by her arrogant and domineering half-sister. She thought that was how her life would end.

    The protagonist travels from ancient to modern times, has a spatial ability that is rarely used later in the story, possesses exceptional embroidery skills, has weak parental bonds, and is quite independent. Five stars.

    This book is absolutely hilarious! The older cousin, Qin Ruyue, is reborn and meticulously plans a marriage, even begging her grandmother to arrange a marriage between her and her younger cousin, the seemingly aloof and indifferent Lord Jiang. The female lead, Qin Ruyin, thinks: "No interest in women? A peaceful household? No difficult mother-in-law? This is a marriage tailor-made for a lazy bum like me who just wants to relax!" She happily marries in with a generous dowry, ready to live a quiet, unassuming life. But what happens? The promised apathy is a lie, the promised indifference to women is a lie—this Lord Jiang is like an old house on fire, burning brightly and passionately, spoiling his wife without any limits. The female lead wonders every day: "I just wanted to be lazy, but instead of being lazy, I'm being pampered to the point of ecstasy!" I couldn't stop smiling like a doting aunt the whole time. This older man-turned-love trope combined with the arranged marriage-to-love story is just too sweet! Thank you so much, cousin! The man you sent isn't a cold-hearted husband at all; he's clearly a doting husband.

    A fellow villager is here to lend you a hand. This is a Stardew Valley fanfiction, one of the four major survival games, that you can read regardless of whether you've played the game or not. It's slice-of-life, slow-paced, with some magical elements (from the game), a single female lead (Sophia), well-developed characters, a smooth plot, and a rare combination of SVE and RPG elements in Stardew Valley fanfiction, featuring a single female lead.

It's currently in the recommendation period, with 10,000-20,000 words updated daily, absolutely no breaks! Perfect for reading while taking a dump at work—it's super fun! She wakes up to find herself back a year before Honghui's untimely death. This time, she completely sheds her "love brain," ensuring Honghui's survival, securing her position as the principal wife, and personally uncovering the shocking truth hidden behind countless lies from her past life! Chun Yuan is not a foolish, purely evil woman, and her naiveté is no excuse for the harm she caused. There are still rivalries, resentments, and undercurrents of suspicion among the sisters. But when the fog clears, Yi Xiu realizes: the culprit who pushed all the women in the harem step by step into the abyss has always been Yinzhen on the dragon throne. • From calling her "Xiao Yi" to the mutual loathing of "Yi Xiu." • All the romantic relationships collapse, and true feelings shatter! Zhen Huan, Chun Yuan, and Yin Zhen—none of them met a good end! In this life, Yi Xiu disdains to beg for even a shred of his affection. She wants to see, when the women of the harem are no longer there to bear his infamy, and all his shields are gone, who can the high and mighty emperor blame for his cruelty and ruthlessness? [I highly recommend it!]
