New Modern People
Tiny Times (I haven't seen this)

If you don't mind movies I can recommend 2 of my favorite Chinese movies, they are a slice of life, from everyday rural village settings in China.

Not One Less

The Road Home

Both are heartwarming, simple yet engaging stories.

Whoops, the drama version of Tiny Times didn't come out yet but there are 2 movie versions with subs embedded in them.
I'm not really sure what Tiny Times is actually about but I skipped through the movie and it seems to be able the every day struggles of a group of girls.
Tiny Times
Tiny Times 2

New Modern People

Rent a Girlfriend Home for New Year is a drama about a city girl going to the countryside.
