Gu Qingqing wakes up one day and finds she has transmigrated into the body of a young widow in a poor ancient village. Her husband died early, leaving her with crushing debts and a pair of frail twin children, a boy and a girl. The village is so poor that people can barely afford to eat, and her own household is in constant turmoil. They can only scrape by on borrowed food.
But Gu Qingqing discovers that she has unexpectedly unlocked a mysterious medicinal recipe. It not only lets her prepare herbs to treat illnesses, but also greatly improves the fertility of the soil, allowing her to grow bumper crops. With the recipe and the “Divine Farmer System,” she begins treating the sick and helping the villagers through their hardships.
Faced with one disaster after another, Gu Qingqing refuses to back down. Instead, she cleverly uses the System to buy urgently needed supplies and leads the villagers through years of famine and in rebuilding their homes. Little by little, she makes a name for herself in the village, accumulating wealth and prestige until she becomes the village boss whom everyone admires.
