The Daily Life of an Eldest Brother in Ancient Times

After transmigrating, Lin Yu's father died and his mother remarried, leaving him to live a life where he only had to feed himself. The world was peaceful, and the neighbors got along. Lin Yu planned to wait until he came of age, then slowly build a business, make his fortune, and enjoy a quiet life. Who could have guessed that life would take an unexpected turn? His stepfather was suddenly exiled, and four little rascals appeared at Lin Yu's door, one, two, three, four. They included his younger siblings from the same mother, as well as his stepfather's other children. Raising children wasn't easy. Lin Yu had to earn money while bringing up and educating his younger siblings. He never expected that a tiny seed he planted would eventually yield so much... P.S. A slow-paced farming and childrearing story. Two of the children are not related to the protagonist by blood, so please keep that in mind. Here's a peek at my next story, currently in preparation: The Royal Clan's Everyday Gossip As the saying goes, even emperors have a few poor relatives. Shen Lan was one such relative, a distant cousin of the current emperor, far enough removed that they were no longer within the five degrees of mourning kinship. He'd thought spending money on the reincarnation System would get him a good deal, but it was all just for show. Fine clothes and good food? No such luck. Throwing his weight around? Forget it. The whole family's greatest hope was to scrape together enough for a decent meal. So Shen Lan could only grip his gossip System tightly, pricking up his little ears and wandering everywhere in hopes of completing his missions. Hmm, should he spend his rewards on chocolate or soda? Who would have thought that step by step, he would carve out a path of his own? Theme: Children are the hope of the future.
