Looking for books similar to *The Matriarch's Daily Life*. I don't want a story that uses the matriarch setup as an excuse for romance. No need for a love story; mutual respect is enough.

Reader note
The queen can be regarded as the mistress. What does it mean to be the favorite concubine of the sixth house? Becoming a queen with power is the ultimate goal. The heroine's ambition has never been to compete for favor in the harem and wait for the love and mercy of men, but to focus on the turbulent waves of the previous dynasty and the turmoil outside the court. The heroine's early battle against the male protagonist and others is just to get the status to intervene in the previous dynasty.

🈸️ The first book is so beautiful! The author is of a high standard, and the obviously bloody and cliche plot is so gripping. Every time someone behaves like a monster, I guess the outcome. But it's so good, I just don't skip the chapter, I just want to watch the process. It's so exciting! The characters are all on point, each with their own personality and temperament 🈸️ The second book. I haven't seen such a novel in a long time. The logic is coherent, and the heroine is very good. She is neither a virgin nor a lover. There are no inexplicable emotions that appear unexpectedly in the article. The heroine's career ambition is always there. I like Lin Zheng's character very much. Step by step 🈸️ The third book has been read 2 times, and now I'm reading it again. It's quite interesting. Compared with those reincarnations who fight with each other every day, and always get framed and then solve the problem, which usually only happens with the help of men, what a waste of reincarnations! The heroine of this novel is reborn, and I will treat you as your enemy's mother-in-law. The key is that you can't resist. It's really awesome. No need to waste words, I will just beat you and you have to thank me. It's really good-looking.

I think these two books, but the second one is not a matron type, but it is also super good. You can tell by looking at the ratings. The two completed books can be followed all night long without the worry of waiting for the plot. The writing style of the whole text is also very good. There are mistakes but they are harmless. I can only say it is excellent. If you look at the reading time on my homepage, you will know that I have a very picky family.

The heroine in the first book is a queen. She does not fight for or seek the emperor's favor. Instead, she treats the emperor as a cowherd. As long as she is not offended, she is easy to talk to. If he is, she will suppress her. The third book is mainly about the battle of wits and courage between the heroine, the mistress of the Hou Mansion, and the young prince of the Hou Mansion. I also think the other books are good.

Reader note
The plot of the book is smooth and relaxed, often making people laugh, but the workplace experiences in it also benefit us readers a lot. (Really!! The gold content!! Very high!!) Although the heroine in the book is a concubine, she is as comfortable as a mistress in this circuit. The heroine is particularly good at talking. Because she is a concubine, she keeps to herself. She is very good at winning people's hearts and knows how to use her workplace experience before time travel in the back house without changing the medicine. The plot of the whole book is smooth (the heroine's soul needs to use her brain to cross the main plot), and the foreshadowing is skillfully used (you can even isolate the very small character in King Su's heart disease) (you can't even tell that it is foreshadowing if you don't read every line carefully). The narrative language can switch freely between God's perspective and the character's inner monologue. The characters are well developed, and I never felt like I felt it was too outrageous to continue reading halfway through. There is no brainless plot in the whole book. As a reader, it is a great blessing to be able to clearly feel the growth and changes of each character, and the second is! ! The workplace knowledge imparted by the author is really useful [crying][crying][crying]
