[Farming + infrastructure building + pocket dimension + superpowers + feel-good story + gradual development + love that grows over time + devoted romance] A sweet-looking heroine who kills without batting an eye vs. a fearsome hero of absolute strength who dotes on his wife
Song Wan is a powerhouse of the apocalypse. Just as the apocalypse is about to end, she's sliced up for research.
After dying, she transmigrates into the body of a pitiable concubine-born daughter in the Prime Minister's residence of the Xia Dynasty, where she's been bullied and abused.
The moment Song Wan opens her eyes, she shoves her legitimate elder sister's head into a water vat.
Song Wan sneers. "Picking on people? You look so happy doing it, and it really pisses me off."
Rumor has it that Xiao Yechuan, the fearsome fiend, has returned to the capital, and the Prime Minister's legitimate daughter is to be granted in marriage to him?
Her younger half-sister sobs and transfers the marriage to Song Wan. Song Wan says nothing.
After their wedding, Xiao Yechuan leaves the capital with his troops, preparing to return to the border.
As it happens, Xiao Yechuan is also investigating her scumbag father. Song Wan takes advantage of the opportunity and has her fiancé submit all the evidence of the Prime Minister's household's crimes over the years to the emperor.
Song Wan calmly watches the once-glamorous Prime Minister's residence fall from grace overnight. Some are executed, and others are exiled.
On the way, bandits try to rob them. Song Wan kills swiftly and fights as if she doesn't care whether she lives or dies.
Xiao Yechuan stares in astonishment, his heart pounding with attraction.
Xiao Yechuan's subordinates: Madam looks even more fearsome than our prince!
The borderlands are poor and barren. With her wood-element powers, Song Wan improves seeds and pairs them with soil enhanced through practical means, making the crops better with every passing year.
Xiao Yechuan: "My lady, these seeds..."
Song Wan: "Pay me, and they're yours."
Only a fool would turn down a chance to make money!
They tame the shifting sands, use her pocket dimension to stockpile supplies, and face natural and man-made disasters together. The borderlands gradually prosper, and everyone has enough to eat, money to spare, and leisure time.

It's still watchable so far, and I can't really say if it's good or bad. I personally prefer stories with strong female leads, but this female lead isn't particularly strong or weak. You could say she's weak, since she killed the bad guys who kidnapped her; you could say she's strong, since she only killed a few people before collapsing from exhaustion.
It looks kind of funny. I, as a writer, give this novel a thumbs up 👍.
It's pretty good, a bit funny.
This book is pretty good.
