What’s Wrong with Farming? I’m Not Going Back to Being a Workhorse

[Inspirational / System / Family life / Farming / No saintly heroine / Has awful relatives]

Jiang Chuci had 25 years of mortgage payments weighing on her. When she woke up, she was no longer in her original body. A diligent wage slave, she had worked herself to the bone, delivering takeout right up until she dropped dead from exhaustion...

When she opened her eyes again, what? I'm a mother now?

And a widow?

Being dirt poor doesn't even begin to describe how miserable she is. Penniless might be more accurate.

Floods, epidemics, famine migration: what kind of brutal combo is this? How is a woman like her, with a child in tow, supposed to survive in this patriarchal society?

Wait, bro System? Who gives away Systems two for the price of one? Are they really that cheap?

A farm? Fishing?

Grow something and get something in return?

Catch something and get whatever you want?

Heh, what if it's a handsome man? Can I catch one of those too?

Later, she catches her husband while fishing, builds her fortune through farming, and keeps a low profile. Her business just happens to span the entire Nanzhao Kingdom.

Go back?

Nope, absolutely no way! Life is so good here: her daughter is sweet, her husband is warm, and her wealth is secure. Who'd go back to being a wage slave?
