    The plot is historically accurate, depicting a genuine farming life. The protagonist has a special ability but still struggles to make ends meet. The multiple female leads aren't like a typical harem novel where the protagonist leaves his seed everywhere; there's genuine emotional development between them, and the characters are believable.
