Poisonous Peasant ‘Concubine’

Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

Ling Jingxuan, a once world-renowned doctor and killer, who saved lives with one hand and killed with the other, was feared by both the government and the underworld gangs solely by his name. During an accident, he had transmigrated to become a man who had nothing but the bare walls in his house and two children who looked like ‘buns’. ‘Why does life always go through such ups and downs? Could this life be more miserable?’, thought him while holding his forehead helplessly.

Yan Shengrui, the only prince with a general title in the Qing Dynasty, suddenly changed his s*xual orientation in an accident when carrying on a mission. A tough man turned into a wife-con. The royal clansmen all felt much regretful. But no one dared to straighten him, since his concubine was an expert both in medical skills and poison.

“What? Thirty copper coins? Why don’t you just go robbing?”

One day, Ling Jingxuan took the two ‘buns’ to the market for necessities purchase. Hearing the price, the five-year-old little bun blushed instantly with his small hands dragging the worn-out money bag. Ling Jingxuan felt too deep for tears. ‘Son, we earn money to spend! Don’t tell me you wanna save the money for your offspring.’

The last of the last, they bought the cheapest goods with the worst quality among all the selection with the two taels of silver Ling Jingxuan had earned. Looking at the two little buns’ filled with laughter, Ling Jingxuan vowed secretly that one day he would raise them into super stuffed meat buns, and the dandy rich second generation!

Seeing as this has hardly any chapters out (aka not enough to read to judge) I wont be rating it yet. I will say, however, so far it seems to be my lovely cup of tea (anything with mpreg and/or childcare usually is) so I'll probably be giving it a high rating later. I've done the favor of adding more tags so more people with my taste can find this potential gem easier, not to mention AlieAHey asked for more tags so that they shall receive. I'll add EVEN more... more>> when we have some more chapters to go through.

Now any one looking for a "nurturing" and or "family" feeling like novels like this that can help fill the time in between these chapters, I can suggest: "Lessons on Raising a Partner" and "Never Marry a Man with Twin Tintins" (yes titans is misspelled in title) to you. The fist one has no actual childcare or Mpreg but its very family feeling. The second suggestion is also family feeling but it actually has Mpreg as well. Hope these help to pass the torturous time in between updates on this one.

P.S. Although I've seen worse wait times, 1-2 updates a month is still not that many chapters to read so I'd hold off until they have more chapters before you start this. Granted the translator could start pumping out more chapters a month later on but I rarely see this happen. When they start out slow like this they usually stay slow in updates or even release slower. It sad how MOST of the really good stories update slowly but on the flip side they seem to be translated rather well. Again, I'd wait to read until more chapters are released, don't torture yourself -cough- like me -cough-... <<less

I don't like how the author brought in modern artillery and camo outfits (too out of place). But the business ideas, poison, harem fights are quite interesting

So the MC is "too OP" because he was originally raised/groomed to be self sufficient (an assassin/surgeon/TCM doctor who can concoct their own poison, make their own medicine and make their own weapons), also he was already a farmer in modern times (after retiring as an assassin) on top he has a "cheat" (not space perse, just a spring). Besides, you can't expect an... more>> assassin to be a sweet little wife who doesn't take revenge on those who wrong him?? MC's bottom line is his family so go figure. He's also loving and loyal to his friends and treats very well those who treat him well. It's not only a rags to riches transmigration farming novel but also has major power plays (at nation level) and also intriguing harem fights

I don't understand why people are complaining about this novel honestly. It's an OP Gary Stu from the very beginning so why would you torture yourself to go through something you don't like???? You don't have to like it but you don't have to READ it either.

All in all, this story stays in my top3 farming transmigration novels <<less

i MTLed the entire novel and I must say I'm a big fan of the works of this author. Even though the MC in the story was lowkey op, I enjoyed it! I loved seeing him expanding his business and fighting with nobles and all the court politics! Anybody who says that the plot of the story is not good is DEFINITELY lying. The story kept me hooked at all times, and I could never put it down. ALSO the novel is pretty easy to mtl so that's another +1.

This novel consists of 3 volumes and 31 extras.

I finished this in 3 months thank you to this novel for accompany me through many up and down.

SPOILER

... more>> .

.

.

.

First Novel
it was really sad for me at the beginning, the children are very thin and the father has gone crazy, I personally feel like life is very unfair to the original Ling Jing Xuan, I thought there would be a explanation of what would happen to him, gave him a little bit of closure.... but it didn't.

in the first volume there is very unpredictable, really surprised me... that not only Ling Jing Xuan but also Chu Chi is transmigrated. I didn't expect the story to be like this, made me more curious... when at first I just casually read this.

The author likes to write a spoilers about what will happen next in the future, make me crave for more.

There is a lot of evil female characters, and they punished them very cruelly.
sometimes I think the punishmen is to much.

in the first book it is more about building the family from zero, and everything slowly became better.

Their love story is very strong... they always support each other, but don't expect to much romantic story in here because this novel more focus on family.

The first novel ends with the family leaving the village and heading to capital.

Second Novel

Tells about how they adapt to a royal life.
How they killed them all who got in the way.

You will begin to understand the background story of several characters such as Yan Sheng Rui, Chu Yun Han and many new characters are introduced that are quite interesting.

There is more battle for the throne problem, and it finally become clear why Chu Yun Han was punished for seeing Yan Xiao Ming's death in his past life.

The end of the second book successfully brought tears to my eyes.

Third Novel

Third novel is very funny, Xiao Thuan Zi is 3 years old now and very cute... He made this novel much more interesting..... made me laugh so many times.

I really enjoy this one,

Tells what happened after Yan Xiao Ming became emperor and finally Chu Yun Han and Zheng Shao Qing love was united.

How they built an abandoned city and win the war...

But out of all that, the best main character is still the 3/4 year old Xiao Thuan Zi who always makes me laugh.

The book ends after they finally win the war.

EXTRAS

There is 31 extras,
Tell the story about Ling Jing Han problem before getting married, what happens after the children growing up to be teenagers and want to married their love one.

And finally we have a cute little baby sister but my heart already got stolen by Xiao Thuan Zi who is now 11/12 years old, He is not fat anymore but still a funny boy, and last but not least all animal is having a family dan baby too.

CONCLUCION

I enjoyed reading this, most importantly it made me forget the problems that I went through in these 3 months.

This novel successfully make me curious even though it didn't make me addicted. This suit me well, because when you got addicted you can't do anything else.

I continued to read each volume without getting bored.

My favorite character is Xiao Thuan Zi and all the cute animals.

After finished reading this, I am still reread some chapter that is so funny and so cute...

For those of you who want to read this, I suggest you to give it a try, it is about a family love, a couple who support each other.

Love that makes you survive...

Love that accompanies you in life..... <<less

I decided not to read the Extra, so I ended the book after the actual end on Shubaow. Net. There's more but I was satisfied with what I read. Any longer may ruin it. Shubaow. Net is in Chinese, but I translated the page to read it because the book started so well, I was desperate and it was worth the Google translation of the page. Although some meaning can be lost; hopefully someone with a good understanding can finish this book on one of the sites that are listed... more>> on Novelupdates. I loved this novel and the whole supposed "rape" issue is actually a non-issue, so please don't be deterred from reading this story. It is NOT what you think at all. It's a cute story and thrilling, action-packed, with family love, community, struggle, determination, and success. It is every bit worth the read. I gave it 4 stars, mainly because it wasn't completely translated, but once it is it's worth 5 stars. <<less

This is one of those novels you like at first, but after reading it a second time, let's say a year later, you find so many faults you can't believe you liked it at first.

MC was a former assassin and doctor. Author could have just said doctor who's also ever killed people. Assassin is not a job. Not that many people need to be killed for it to be a profession. And this just makes me look at him as a mu*derer, which is not what I was looking for... more>> when I chose this genre.

Author does a pretty terrible job of making him a loving caring mother and virtuous son and at the same time a cold mu*derer. To me he just seems to have a split personality. And I swear if I read one more "Daddy I'm scared..." I'm flying to China to operate assassin activities on the author!

Even before the ML being introduced I'm sure he's finna be some 2D "listen to my wife, cold to others" character. Actually I've read this before anyways so I'm pretty sure I'm right.

I just knew this book wasn't it when the author wrote' :having come from the 21st century, (insert MC name here) wasn't afraid of hitting women.: Like- with so many domestic violence issues going on, you really thought this was a good thing to write?! And I'll mention I was in favor of said woman getting hit in the incident, that statement was just unnecessary, so misogynistic!!

And honestly he should have just left the ML to die when he first found him. I'm curious to see how the novel would have progressed with that plot. Instead now we have the "you saved my life even, I owe you, now I fell in love with you and our kids" cliche kinda thing🙄 <<less

Very nice story with strong ukes <3 The only thing that I didn't like is how the author put guns and cammos in the story and why so much marriages..? Even the children all got their partners, and there's A LOT of children... Even the author in the final extra just skipped the last 2-3 cerimonies cuz she "felt" that she wrote too much marriages like "do you think?" XD But besides that the story is really nice, also people complain about how is not credible that everyone balmes the... more>> uke and try to hurt him, but for me that have a family really similarly I confidently say that yae, it is credible, Definitely be putting it the reread pile. <<less

Ling Wen is the most irritating little sh*t I’ve ever seen, he has only one defining, singular characteristic, he’s stingy. And the MC? Yeah, go save your horrific, mu*dering rapist when you’re supposedly a cold assassin🙄 IT MAKES NO f*ckING SENSE WHATSOEVER!!! just... the whole thing is terrible, read the other reviews because I agree with the other low rated ones and I won’t bother repeating it all

First of all I'm sorry if my words or grammar is bad, because English is not my mother language. And this is my first time to make a review lol.

I mtl this novel and read it until the end, and actually I'm very like this.

Maybe everyone things that the MC is too much with everything he do, but I think it's actually what he must do according to his past life... But, everyone has their own opinion.

Yes, this novel a bit boring when it comes to the Southern Xinjiang Arch... more>> (MTL based) so I recommend you to skip it hshshs.

This novel is a good one for you if you like cute buns, poor to rich, harem's fight (lol what's this), face slapping, overpower MC, and etc. It's too much? Well then I think I am a sad*st person then.

But well, you can try to read this first to know how it's actually going on. <<less

This is a novel with a good rhythm, it can become addictive when you start reading, many things are repeated here and there many times in the arguments that move the story forward, if that is ignored maybe things bearable... It has a good character development especially the secondary ones, MC and ML are a bit meh their relationship becomes solid and vigorous but predictable... MC's attitude was spot on at first, fighting for his family and keeping the distance of an ML with no memory, but then, then Ugh... more>> it all becomes "revenge, revenge, revenge!" Act like everything can be solved with vengeance, if you like drama in the palace maybe this will be entertaining for a while, strategies and conspiracies are things, I kept reading this for, but then when everything becomes the same and the only variable is the enemy, this becomes a bit boring and repetitive...

As for the buns, they are nice, cute and funny, even if they make me desperate sometimes, they are cute, Other buns are also cute and adorable, who is not cute and adorable is the smallest bun, he just makes me desperate It seems that it is so spoiled that I dislike it...

It may be an interesting novel but I don't think it's for everyone... As for reading the rest of the story mmm maybe that won't happen, For me it was enough to read the 2/3 books that make up this novel, 1st book 1-290 and something approximately, 2nd book 290 and something - 510 or something like that, 3rd book: the rest of the story. In the first book is MC's struggle to survive himself and his family, as well as his growth little by little; in the second book there is revenge and strategy. In the 3rd book is the exploration of another kingdom, sharing in much of the above, that book is not so interesting for me, I can live by omitting it...

Only 3/5 because although I loved the story, the repetitive thing gives me a headache <<less

Like how the MC doest give a sh*t and just clears his path. The Buns are ok for now. The ML, cant wait to know him more. And if in future there will be palace fight that will be hilarious.

The TL becomes more difficult to read as you get further along. Plus, it's mostly drama and face-slapping. I was hoping for more business management and poor-to-rich development, but that was a side thing... well, anyway! The premise of the novel is very similar to your usual "MC-Transmigrates-into-Ancient-China-and-Makes-A-Lot of Money" story. He has a 'cool' background that enables him to make everything from jam, to wine, to improved steel, etc. with this, he makes a lot of money.

Of course, just like any novel of this type, there are countless cannon... more>> fodder villains getting in the way (shrews, shameless family members, etc). And, in the process he creates a big family and falls in love. Though the romance is rather potiable. The development is awkward af. If I had to rate this novel (I'm not going to because I didn't even read half of it), I wouldn't give it a very high score. Barely 2-3 stars (maybe 2.5/5) at the highest. Even then, that's mainly because I enjoy poor-to-rich developments. If that's not your think, I think you wouldn't like this novel very much. <<less

I'm not going to rate this yet because I haven't read it but god is the summary bad and it makes me not want to give this a shot at all... Like seriously? It's incomprehensible. It says a lot without saying anything...

I hope the story is better than this and if it is, whoever it is that writes (or translates) these summaries, you're doing this story a huge disservice.

3.59 Stars On-Hold: C822

Writing/Translation: 3.3/5

The translation I read is from Flying-Lines Guy Gone Bad. As expected of a Flying Lines TL, it isn't exactly good. I would say above MTL but way below good. There are wrong pronouns and wrong names that the translator keeps missing. So sometimes, especially when the author does this info dump in a dialogue by someone in the capital, I have no idea who's related to who or what their goals are until a good deal of chapters later when I get more familiar with... more>> the new people. I love farming, poor to rich, family-type stories, though, so this didn't faze me.

Pacing: 3.5/5

Most of the time, I thought it was fine. But sometimes, after some long events happen, the author will cram lots of stuff that the characters did in like a couple of paragraphs. It's a little jarring but it doesn't happen all that often. Also, some of the torture stuff the MC did felt a bit too fast to get results but eh.

Plot: 3.5/5

Hmm, how to say? I love the first half when the MC is just a villager and everything is purely about how to get rich for his family and close people. It was heartwarming and I love reading about all the stuff the MC does to get rich. I also liked reading how they designed a big home to live in, all that stuff. Then, well, they had to go to the capital and get thrown into all the political intrigue and all the face-slap scheming. There are still those setting up shops and stuff but it's like 10% of the story now. I still enjoyed it because the heartwarming stuff is still there. But I would still love more farming stuff than fighting lol.

Romance: 3.5/5

The romance is not bad for a BL novel haha. The main romance is surprisingly, the most “healthy”. The couple thinks about each other's views a lot when doing stuff and never force the other to do anything. The development of the romance is a bit iffy where it felt like for a while the MC was in wait-and-see mode and overnight, he suddenly decides that the ML is a good catch and he probably had long-developed feelings for the ML. Kinda out of the blue, I didn't see the building up of feelings but eh. Just roll with it. The other couples are kinda of weird, though. Like the two princes from the Xi kingdom and the MC’s disciple as well as the MC’s nephew and the shadow guard. Wow, kinda toxic relationships in there “side eyes” but eh, just roll with it “laughing face”.

Setting/Worldbuilding: 3.5/5

The setting is typical of ancient China, which I like. I learned a lot of new stuff, like medical things from the MC and stuff like salty land not growing anything XD. All that was fun haha. After we reach the capital, there is a lot less new knowledge and more about the different families and the other kingdom’s movements. Not much detailed world-building, I must say.

Characters: 3.7/5

The main character is definitely vibrant, has a strong personality, is smart and adores kids. So the adores kids part I really like because it adds a lot of family and heartwarmingness to the story. While I am not a fan of most of the Mc’s decisions in how to raise the kids logically (1000 eyes for an eye and ruling through fear than respect, and teaching this to the kids kind of just make them another arrogant bully, well, this isn't that type of fluffy rainbow of a story hahaha). The ML is a typical adoring strong male lead with a powerful background. The kiddos are all noiooce except the big brother when they were still at the village scale. Gosh, he was so annoying then. The whole nagging the MC thing about money got old pretty fast. Luckily, the author mostly stopped it at the capital part.

Personal Enjoyment: 4.1/5

I am enjoying myself quite a bit haha. Especially because it's so long. I completely forgot it wasn't completed after I started it, so now I have to wait hahaha

All this 1 star reviews just because an impoverished kid has a stingy nature makes me laugh; these people prolly grew up with a silver spoon and can't relate with people on the lowest end of the financial spectrum. It also shows the cultural difference since I recon that 'almost all' Asians with strict parents or on a tight budget can relate to.

Anyways, I'm currently at chapter 31 and the story is progressing similarly to other Transmigration novels with a similar theme so all is well atm (not gonna read... more>> the mtl cause I don't want to suffer a headache). <<less

Ehh, if you end up reading other reviews spoilers about kids being a little bratty.. I'd say it's not enough context.

If you like the MC within first 50 chapters, you won't really feel that he goes out of character.

Thought ML contradicts him a bit once or twice over a chapter or two in regards to parenting, they actually end up having a discussion so it's realistic. You can clearly see they are trying to give the kids the right kind of values so they can thrive in this world... more>> setting. I feel like that's more realistic than anything else. About the R*pe Victim Becomes Lover tag I usually avoid like the plague, I'd say it's not really that big of a deal in this context.

Spoiler

The victim is really original host and ML was hopped up on extra strength aphrodisiac, so it's really bad timing.. O

Original MC was already depressed (because of the whole inters*x thing) and that plus extend family broke him, seeing as he was a 14 year old, it's understandable. Now that our guy took over he's more than willing to try to see if he can make it work considering exceptional circumstances. I think it works. I doubt ML could like original host. He needs someone pragmatic like our current MC.
