   This book deserves more than a 9.5, not just a 9.2. First, the plot is tightly woven, with each event building upon the last, avoiding any mundane moments. It revolves around Songjia Village and its children, each with their own distinct characteristics, and feels very realistic. There aren't many grand philosophical themes; the castrated pig is only briefly mentioned. I feel this book could be divided into two parts: Songjia Village and the capital (this part wasn't fully explored before the story ended). It feels a bit rushed, and some plot holes remain unfilled. Towards the end, the math in the lower left corner seems a bit off. Where did the group that left go? It also has a clear focus, avoiding any feeling of being padded, and is much better than some other books about children. I think a second part could be written, divided into Songjia Village and the capital.

   I recommend this one—a heartwarming and healing story of farming and raising children. There's no system cheating, no overnight riches, and no unexpected twists in the world of farming leading to political intrigue. The story follows an uncle and his niece as they steadily cultivate the land, run a small business, and slowly build a good life together with their neighbors. It features adorable children, delicious food, and the lively everyday life of the countryside. If you enjoy this kind of down-to-earth charm, give it a check it out.

   All the posts about male protagonist farming novels without a romantic pairing are just 😠🤦 🥺 They've all been taken over by romance novels featuring male protagonists without a family and female-oriented farming novels 😢 I haven't finished a few of these, but they're all farming and infrastructure-building novels without romantic pairings: ① Apocalyptic male protagonist with family, a cheat code, and not a saintly figure (I haven't read many chapters, just found one) ② A newly found novel with comments saying it's a female-oriented farming novel that transitioned to male-oriented farming with no romantic pairings ③ An ongoing, abstract daily life farming novel without romantic pairings, a bit short on chapters, easy to run out of books to read ④ Also a farming livestream fantasy, not pure, haven't finished it, not necessarily without romantic pairings ⑤ Ancient infrastructure-building novel without romantic pairings, the descriptions of emotions and family are quite light and delicate ⑥ Infrastructure-building sci-fi novels that are still self-consistent, most of them blocked by the system, no romantic pairings
