Building a Tiled House in the Mountains During Famine, Making a Fortune by Gathering Treasures

Synopsis

[Cute kids + farming + stockpiling with a System + face-slapping power fantasy + no CP]

Zhong Qing transmigrates and becomes the notorious shrew of her village. She picks fights with her in-laws, bullies her sister-in-law, and throws her weight around the village.

Her husband has barely been dead a day before she’s planning to sell her children and remarry. She’s raised her four kids until they’re as skinny as dried chickens, all while using the family’s food to support her own parents and siblings.

Zhong Qing cries out: No! I want to be a good person!

Luckily, fate is kind to her, and she has a System with her wherever she goes, stocked with everything imaginable.

[Ding! Wild mint detected ahead, worth 30 copper coins.]

[Ding! One wild rabbit detected, worth 20 copper coins.]

When the leeches from her own family come causing trouble, she chases them off with a big stick.

“Big Aunt, have you got the money for my school fees ready?”

“Ready my foot! My eldest son needs to go to school too.”

“Your niece, the rich Wang next door wants your eldest daughter as his concubine!”

“Concubine my foot! Why don’t you send your own daughter to be the concubine of some old coffin-dodger? Your whole family can be concubines!”

Zhong Qing throws herself into making a better life. Her days get better and better, and she helps the whole village prosper. The villagers all give her an admiring thumbs-up.

With the System in hand, happiness is mine to command. Life is pretty great!
