    Both are novels about sons-in-law who marry into wealth. They're both strong-willed and tender-hearted, very enjoyable. One features a transmigrated woman who is forced into a marriage of convenience and raises fish, while the other, returning to her former life, wins without effort. The transmigrated woman's actions are constantly outrageous, even involving the trope of her father marrying into the family and her becoming incredibly wealthy. It avoids the cliché of a simpleton in a courtyard house struggling to settle accounts, but does feature a story of an old house burning down, a wrong marriage leading to a happy ending, and the emotional turmoil of a man who has ruined half her life for her. Very enjoyable. The plot is fresh; if you don't like it, contact me.

    Meets the requirements. The first book is set in a historical period; the male lead is mute (but otherwise incredibly kind), and the female lead is reborn as an only child. In her second life, she dotes on the male lead and they live a sweet life together. It's still being serialized. The second book is a dual-male lead novel in an ancient setting (I only recommend good ones; if you don't accept dual-male leads, just buy it). It features a male lead (ge'er), the male lead is thin and sickly, and the female lead is sunny and cheerful. He's a standard modern handsome man who transmigrates, and he has a spatial ability. The third book is a female-centric novel; the female lead is strong and the male lead is weak. The male lead is undeniably handsome, and the female lead is very attracted to him. It's an incredibly satisfying novel; watch how the female lead dominates and slaps down the villains.
