   No romance, family-oriented, quick transmigration, all featuring brothers. The first book is a female-oriented quick transmigration novel, the protagonist is Ye Wuque, but the story mainly revolves around Ye Changlan (the protagonist's younger brother). To summarize it in seven words: "Eat, sleep, and play with beans (Ye Changlan's nickname)." Each small world has 1-2 side stories; the first side story is a sequel to that world, and the second is a short story about the three brothers' adventures. However, for me personally, the main text is quite similar. I recommend reading the second book during leisure time. I'm currently on volume four, and the tone is good, though there are some angst. The protagonist is Su Yue, a member of a world-maintaining organization. His older brother is Su Xun. Each time he transmigrates to a world, he gains a new brother, each brother being an independent individual, usually a cousin who died young. However, volume six features two brothers and the involvement of friends, making it a two-person mission. I haven't read volume six yet.

    This is a story about brotherly love with no romantic pairing. The older brother has old injuries and a stomach ailment, with pain described in almost every chapter. However, despite his illness, he's not weak; he exudes a powerful aura. The author's motto is, "Enduring hardship is the essence of battle-worn and sickly characters!" The brothers' mutual affection is incredibly captivating. The older brother is a domineering family patriarch, but his younger brother is an exception. In the first three chapters, the younger brother is captivated by the beauty of a female supporting character, but she essentially disappears from the story. The author also promises that neither brother will have a romantic subplot, so you can read with peace of mind. The story begins to focus on the older brother's illness from the fourth chapter onwards, with extensive and detailed descriptions of his condition. He's incredibly resilient, making it a truly compelling read! Fans of battle-worn and sickly characters shouldn't miss this! I'm recommending it extensively on various relevant platforms!
