Carrying a Hoe to Cultivate

Description

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

Xia Yi had transmigrated, with a cultivation system into a farming novel. Orz

Mission: Becoming an apprentice in the Qi Shan Sect to obtain a mythical beast.

With his hoe on his shoulder, Xia Yi gazed at the large area of farmland in front of him, he almost blacked out: How am I going to complete cultivation missions in a farming novel?

System: It’s fine. There is always a fix to a problem…

And so, Xia Yi was forced to go between the two worlds, farmed a bit here, cultivated a bit there.

Although the rubbish missions were torturing him to death, there was always a loyal doggie beside him…

Xia Yi: Cultivating is so hard.

Gu Wen Zhu: I’ll teach you.

Xia Yi: Farming is so exhausting.

Gu Wen Zhu: I’ll help.

Xia Yi: I don’t want to have a child.

Gu Wen Zhu: Yes, you want to.

As the worlds mixed up, the characters in the cultivation novel frequently appeared beside him.

The whole thing was a mess, traveling between two worlds. Claiming to be relatives with people, arranging a marriage, becoming sworn brothers with others…

Why not let his dog at home join the party too!

When I started reading this novel, I dropped it at around chapter 15, but later I picked it up again. I fill skipping those chapters, I finally reached the point where it ignited my interest. Now, my mind has totally changed about it. Here is my final thoughts on this novel 😊

Loved everything about it, especially the fact that MC kept his modern life mindset and attitude throughout the whole story. I loved this consistency of his character the most. Nice plot, nice MC and ML, nice side characters, mwuah... more>> 😙👌 (chef kiss) !

I would like to thanks the translator for the hard work as well ❤️❤️❤️ <<less

The premisse is unique, the ML is doting, everywhere is sweet and funny and the system is precious.

The drama is very low, is more like a feel good sweet funny novel with a twist of mystery waiting to be revealed.

Completely worth reading it.

This story has many ups and downs to the point of being confusing at times mainly because of the multiple glitches/transmigrations the characters experience. In the end though it’s worth it to read to the end because by the end everything is explained. I loved how Xia Yi and Gu Wen Zhu proved they were meant for each other since their reborn selves still fell in love even without knowing their past.

... more>>
Spoiler

Xia Yi and Gu Wen Zhu were originally a couple but in order to heal and revive they had to be reborn. And the reason why the system couldn’t fix the glitch was because of Gu Wen Zhu’s dad opened a portal between the cultivation and farming world unknowingly interfering with the system. I liked how by the end both worlds were able to coexist and the entire family of MC and ML was able to reunite with everyone having their memories complete. Especially how the person behind Xia Yi’s death was punished.

Also the translation was great <<less

Pretty good, very fluffy but also humorous throughout. The story did feel a bit fast, like a condensed or summarized story as many elements seemed to have progressed super quickly.

Despite it being a short story, it is very jam-packed with content. In a way, I wish the author had taken more time to slow down crucial scenes or development.

Nevertheless, I have a great impression of this author and greatly enjoyed their other works as well.

This one is like their other stuff, quirky, intentionally breaking cliches, and just a fun time... more>> overall.

Pretty good translation. <<less

Love this one! Would I recommend it to others? Yes, surely! Will I reread? Probably, maybe just the ending and the extra but anyways.

I would recommend this to certain type of people bcs mind you, the MC is brain-dead no thinking just happy-go-lucky person. And that is exactly why I like it lmao. Irl he would be so f*cking annoying bcs he’s always crying and dependant onto ML, but for fiction? That’s my cup over there.

It was quite boring for the first few chapters but the MC and his system... more>> interaction is what makes me stay. Also, even if it is boring I wouldn’t drop it bcs I’m waiting for the mpreg (><”)

It was a bit pity that the story doesn’t have that much extra bcs I would love to hear more about their daily lives with their big family TT

anyways, stan kirin!! /Srs <<less

This is simply a parody novel with a touch of drama and plot xD. The plot is not its strong point but I think the touch of mystery unraveling is done well. For me, it's a novel that is made for the laughs and fluffs. So I don't feel disatisfied with the not-so perfect things and just treat it as something to pass the time and enjoy.

Imo, MC is not that annoying. Yes, he cried a lot and sometimes having a bit of unreasonable side, but it was understandable. I... more>> think that's what makes him cute and funny. And remember, this is somewhat of a parody novel xD.

Spoiler

I'd like to specially mention the pregnancy episode. I think MC's reaction is a realistic representation of what a real life men's possible reaction knowing that they could give birth as a man in a strange world. Plus, pregnancy accompanies high and unstable moods, so given the stress and difficulties, it was a reasonable reaction. Also, he did reflect on it after some time and accepted his situation. So it was okay and I don't find him unlikeable.

[collapse]

Overall, it was a good read. <<less

Sweet and funny, then a gut punch, but a good ending. Development towards the end was a bit too hurried, with not enough foreshadowing. But you will enjoy this overall.

This is a cute transmigration novel with a mix of a farming and cultivation world.

I didn’t really like the ML at first because he was always thinking ... more>>
Spoiler

that MC had ulterior motives with getting close to him, I get his mindset because he lives in like the old times but still, that kinda put me off

[collapse]
but after maybe chapter 10 or so I grew to like him as well

Sometimes I feel like the MC is pretty unreasonable but it’s still an okay level

Plus points for the plot twist! I didn’t think this novel would have one, it was kinda predictable but the plot twist is still good <<less

I love farming novels, but only if they are decently done.

This...

For one, I found the MC to be ridiculously annoying. Yes, I like silly characters, but not s*upid one.

... more>> Just like a previous review, the MC basically seem like a freeloader. He doesn’t seem to have an important existence in the story aside from being a MC with a system.

You would expect a more interesting MC and plot because of the title and summary, but nope. It is disappointing.

I will still continue reading it because it SEEMS to be getting better, but this novel will never be something I would actively recommend to anyone. It will not be something I would actively follow reading too.

I might just wait for it to be completely translated before continuing my read. <<less

I dropped it at 48 so nothing has been solved yet. The most progress is prob the relationship of MC en ML.

The story start of with the MC complaining and mooching of his housemate the Ml. After knowing a bit more information he's still as clueless as ever. Staring at women and men... who does that. He does work a bit harder later.
The MC characters is pretty much comparable with a coquettish mistress mixed with the MC of the Omega Vampire.

Carrying a hoe to..., MC doesn't carry it that... more>> much, harder works mostly go to the ML. The farming elements are quite light but if the autor focus on that the story won't be ending anywhere close to 70 chapters.

It's easy and light, so ppl who like those might like this. It kinda have the same tone as the General Omega Vampire. <<less

This is a novel that starts off kinda lame and cheesy, and at the half way point you're wondering 'WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON?!'

The story itself kept me reading rather than the MC and ML, who are a bit generic. The story however starts of generic but goes in places you don't expect. I started with low expectations but this was more fun then I expected. It helped too that I didn't read the tags and went in from the summary, so I didn't get spoiled too much.

Very fun read, though MC is a bit annoying/dumb at times. Like leaving fire unattended levels of dumb. There wasn't as much farming as I'd like but their domestic life was really sweet. ML is honestly too sweet and hardworking. I liked how it looked a bit of fun at common drama tropes. The interaction between the MC and the system were very funny, and the flashbacks could be a little sad and heavy (a bit gore-ish with the torture.

Everyone and their mother (quite literally) are transmigrating in this novel.... more>> For the most part it was fine, it's a short novel so it has a small cast and most characters are fleshed out. There are some I'd have liked to see more of, heck i'd have loved to see more farming & cultivation but they really glossed over both. It's just enough to brush the basics but I'm used to more details.

I think the only thing I had a problem with was a side CP,
Spoiler

with the OCD cultivator and the village guy. The cultivator was a bit of a snob using the guy but the village guy kinda schemed him to knock him up, telling him to lock up the herb that would have delayed his heat and then proceeding to [redacted] him. Also MC kept the whole ger pregnancy thing not exactly a secret but left things vague and didn't explain much to the OCD cultivator bc of the guy's snobbish attitude. TBH I don't always like the kids in extras bc they're so limited you don't get to know much and the things they do aren't as endearing bc of the time limited appearance.

A fun mix of farming, xanxia, ger universe, transmigration with a system and a small cast of wacky and funny characters and plenty of fluff. It is just light fantasy reading, with plenty of comedy, no need to analyze further. Really enjoyable read.

There are quite a mixed plot here but it a good short read. Of course with a cliche plot spoiling your wife rotten is a must. Lol, I think many ppl don’t like MC, cus he is really spoiled by ppl around him and sometimes he a bit bratty. But this because of his circumstances is kinda quite normal. ML is typical serious, cool type but only spoil MC, there’s a little mystery and twist with their story, which is kinda interesting. The system is quite funny, can be considered... more>> very helpful with all the cheats and yet not very powerful. And sometimes it’s very human and act like a gossipy aunty too. Lol

Even it’s a short story it’s kinda have everything in it, the mysteries, the twists, the fluff and wholesome ends. Thank q. <<less

Is this novel worth your time? Is this novel interesting? The simple answer is yes, the long answer is I am worried but still invested. At the half way point I am still not too sure how this novel will end (which maybe a pro and not a con). The MC and ML are cute together and they work. They kind of the classic doting ML and silly spoiled kitten MC on paper, but they are more. They play off each other and do challenge their respective tropes well. The... more>> side characters are transient, but you can infer personality and story by how they act and what they do which is more than I expected but it is nice. I am look forward to how this story end. <<less

Just super cute. The epitome of fluffiness (so far anyway). It's what I'm in the mood for and if it's what you're in the mood for too it will hit the spot. I really enjoy the tr*sh system and its inability to get anything meaningful done, its commentary on the ML/MC relationship is great. If it wasn't a spoiler I'd share some choice lines.
