    These are all rare farming novels. The first one is about a female protagonist who transmigrates to the 1970s and goes to the countryside for her sickly younger brother. Although she has a cheat ability (a special advantage in life), she rarely uses it in real life. It's a book that focuses on living life seriously. So far, there are no romantic pairings.
