The Spicy Farm Girl: A Little Landlord in the Countryside

When Gu Yu opens her eyes again, she finds herself facing a household of five: an old widower, three bachelors, and her, an “overage leftover woman” with a tarnished reputation. On top of that, she owes the imperial court a huge “single tax.” She accidentally gets involved with a man who’s notorious as the village thug in all the surrounding hamlets. Worse, the thug has the emotional intelligence of a rock. Who else would pine after a girl and beat up all three of her brothers? What a headache!

With no other choice, she sets out to make changes: new farm tools, new seeds, better soil, and improved farming techniques. She’ll cling to the biggest power in the empire, become the greatest landlady of them all, and, while she’s at it, turn the village thug into a loyal, devoted husband!
