My Rice Bowl Connects Past and Present, and I Spoil the Little General in Exile

[Travel Between Past and Present] [Face-Slapping Between the Fake and Real Heiress] [Stockpiling] [Infrastructure Building] [Exile] [Slow Paced]

Kindhearted, beautiful fake heiress x pitiful young general in exile

Just after Ye Mumu graduates, she's thrown out of her home. When the real heiress shows up, she goes from a pampered young lady to a penniless ugly duckling in an instant.

Having lost her inheritance, she scrapes by in a shabby rented room. But her ancestral rice bowl has started acting strangely: whatever she puts inside disappears, whether buns, steamed bread, chicken, duck, fish, meat, or even bricks...

Then gold, silver, and antiques start falling out of the bowl, making her rich overnight!

In the Great Yu Dynasty, the Zhen Guo General's household has grown so powerful that it threatens the throne, provoking the emperor's suspicion. In a fit of imperial wrath, he confiscates their estate and exiles them. The once-grand household is reduced to commoners. The Zhen Guo General takes his own life to spare his family, leaving the young general Zhong Yu as the backbone of the entire clan.

The road to exile is harsh. They lack food and clothes, and family members fall ill. With nowhere else to turn, Zhong Yu has nothing but an ancestral rice bowl. He wants to throw away the heavy bowl, but suddenly food falls out of it!

Zhong Yu: There's no food left. We'll starve to death. Please, divine being, answer my prayer!

Ye Mumu: I've got plenty of buns and steamed bread.

Zhong Yu: My grandmother is ill, and there's nowhere along the way to treat her.

Ye Mumu: Two boxes of cold medicine. Will that be enough?

Whatever they need, the bowl provides. Without it, this family is doomed to fall apart!

She helps him survive, settle down, build up troops, rise in rebellion, and return to the capital. He gives her a life of comfort and makes her richer than a nation. When a single jade pendant can buy enough food to feed the entire army for a month, Zhong Yu is overjoyed!

Until... the message in the rice bowl turns red, bearing the words: "I offer you my realm as a bride price. Let the sun and moon bear witness to my sincerity..."
