   Reader note

   I've read each of these books at least three times. I read them whenever I don't know what to read. They're among the few I really enjoy, with extremely high ratings. The first book, *Lin Du*, features a disciple who is ranked number one on the talent list, possesses incredible strength, and remains calm and collected in the face of adversity. He transmigrates to save his sect, only to be abused and heartbroken by scumbags. It's a very good read; there is a male lead, but the romance is minimal—99% of the story is plot. The second book, *Li Xiaoya*, tells the story of a girl whose mother has passed away and whose father has run away, leaving her alone with her grandfather. She unexpectedly encounters Sheng Yuxiao, who is recording a TV show and forces him to stay at her house, helping her solve many problems. It also helps her find her real home. This is a novel similar to a nurturing romance, with a very cute female lead, almost a beloved character. The female lead has a romantic subplot after reaching adulthood, but in the last few chapters, the third book, featuring Jiang Tingyun, inherits her grandfather's sect after his death and becomes the sect leader. Unfortunately, the sect is so poor it's unbearable. The female lead awakens her talent for growing vegetables and cooking, becoming a rare culinary cultivator. The sect is transformed into a restaurant. It's a cooking-themed cultivation novel, with most of the plot revolving around cooking. Romance is very limited, and although it's mentioned in the last few chapters, it doesn't explicitly state that the male and female leads are together.

    This is a very good book. The female lead isn't love-struck; she has everyone under her control, giving off a sense of strategic brilliance and decisive victory. It's primarily a Qing Dynasty time-travel story with a child-rearing system, so those who dislike such stories can skip this one. It's not entirely virginal; some male leads are not, and I remember in one small world, the female lead even kept several male concubines at the end.
