I Just Want to Farm. Why Are You All Kneeling?

[Strong heroine + no System + no pocket dimension + taking on shameless relatives + farming + family life + slow burn]

After struggling to survive for ten years in the apocalypse, Shen Yue finally transmigrates into a farming novel and spends her days diligently working the fields.

Then she discovers that her family are all a bunch of troublemakers: her father is blindly filial, her mother is weak, and her domineering grandmother wants to rule the roost.

They expect her to toil like an ox and horse and give everything for the family. As if she would stand for that!

She immediately teaches each disobedient family member a lesson and makes them reflect on their behavior.

Under her firm hand, her family gradually starts acting like normal people.

At last, she thinks she can farm in peace. But disasters and calamities keep coming, and bandits and robbers brazenly steal her crops.

She sends them flying with a slap and, while she’s at it, puts them all to work in the fields.

Then refugees come looking for free food and lodging, so she puts them to work too.

It turns out that many hands really do make light work. Her fields are getting too small, so naturally, she has to expand her territory.

Shen Yue keeps buying land and planting crops, occasionally driving off thieves who covet her fertile fields.

Then one day, she discovers someone has draped a dragon robe over her shoulders, while everyone kneels before her and cries, “Long live the emperor!”

She’s dumbfounded. She was only farming. Why is everyone kneeling?
