Fleeing Famine and Farming from the End of the Sui Dynasty to the Start of the Tang

Zhou Zhou transmigrated to the famous period at the end of the Sui dynasty and start of the Tang. She thought she was incredibly lucky: at last, she could witness the birth of the renowned Tang dynasty with her own eyes and see just how prosperous the historical Reign of Zhenguan had been. But what awaited her was one famine after another, endless roads, and a stomach that never stopped aching with hunger. She truly experienced the words from Du Fu’s poem: “The rich feast on meat and wine behind red gates, while frozen corpses lie by the roadside.” In the end, fed up, she decided to flee into the mountains and live as a wild woman. She cleared the land and farmed it herself, and somehow ended up with the title of reclusive master.
