Su Qinghe, a top student at an agricultural university from the 21st century, accidentally died due to a leakage in the instrument while sequencing the gene of salt-alkali-tolerant rice in the laboratory. His soul traveled to a peasant girl with the same name in an ancient barren village.
The original owner's biological mother died young, and after her father remarried, she became a "thorn in the side" in the eyes of her stepmother Wang. She was squeezed to do the hardest work every day, ate scraps, wore patched old clothes, and was beaten and scolded for the slightest carelessness. Three days ago, the original owner was deliberately pushed into the river by his stepmother's daughter Su Lan'er. He had a high fever and nearly died, only to be reborn as modern Su Qinghe.
After waking up, Su Qinghe faced the difficulties caused by her mean stepmother, the hypocritical calculations of her stepsister, and the tragic fate of being used as a "betrothal tool". But she is no longer the original owner who resigned herself to the situation. With modern agricultural knowledge and the calmness and sharpness of life and death, Su Qinghe secretly made up her mind: first take good care of her body, understand the situation, and then use her own hands to change her destiny. Even if she is in a barren land, as long as she has land and wisdom, she will be able to tear through this suffocating predicament and find a different way of life for herself. And this rebirth is destined to cause different waves in this barren village because of the existence of "Su Qinghe".
