   First on the list is this highly-rated historical novel! The female protagonist's experiences in the 1970s are nothing short of legendary. Instead of going to the countryside, she entered a university in Shanghai, and just a month later, her exceptional talent led to her being recruited to a university in Beijing. Her outstanding English skills made her a valuable assistant in translating foreign technical documents, silently contributing to the nation's scientific and technological development. Later, she embarked on a study abroad journey, navigating the British and American stock markets with remarkable skill and keen insight, amassing a fortune. Recognizing her talent, the government confidently allocated funds, allowing her to earn substantial foreign exchange for the country through the stock market. Such a captivating story is not to be missed! The second book features a vividly portrayed female protagonist, devoid of any saintly aura, without any experience of going to the countryside, and detached from the black market. Her family seems to be born actors; how will they portray a unique life in that special era? Many exciting plot points await your discovery!

   The story doesn't involve rural life, black markets, forced marriage, or extreme characters—it perfectly meets all the requirements. Although the title is "Quick Transmigration," the author writes in great detail, just like a normal novel. The female lead is the only daughter of a single mother and a single father. She's very capable, gets accepted into a machinery factory, and marries someone who takes care of her daily needs (she's the breadwinner). There are no major cheat codes, no spatial abilities, and no system.

   This novel features a female protagonist who doesn't go to the countryside and has no romantic partner. She transmigrates to the 1960s, possesses a system and a spatial ability, and can sign in for resources.

    The first book: unfinished. Judging from the title, it's about the daily lives of five siblings, with the third child being reborn. It uses multiple perspectives and portrays the children's daily lives realistically and humorously. The second book fits the bill perfectly! There's very little romance; it's mostly about the female lead's career and her highlights. The third book is about a reborn brother who brings back his swapped sister, and how the sister is healed by her family, which in turn heals their family as well.
