    These books are all quite good. The writing style is consistent, which is reassuring. The endings are all happy endings, and none of them are bad. I've read them all myself. The first book, "Chinese People Don't Lie to Chinese People," is quite good. The second book is also quite good. The third book might require a little brain-teasers later on because it's a bit silly, but the ending is good and fits the original poster's description. The fourth and fifth books are quite good. I remember the sixth book very well; I read it at least three times. It's a slow-paced, excellent self-cultivation book. The seventh book is a no-brainer purchase.

    Reader note

    The first book perfectly fits the original poster's requirements. It's not exactly about raising someone from childhood, but it definitely took several years. The second book is genuinely good; the beginning is a sweet and fluffy story, but it quickly turns into a crazy, yandere tale. The fourth book was read a long time ago, but it was quite good. I remember the writing style was a bit awkward in the beginning, with a lot of descriptions of expressions, but I really loved it. The third book is also a yandere type and very good. Anyway, as someone who likes yandere characters but is picky about what they say, I was completely captivated.
