During the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, in the rural areas of Jiangnan, Su Wanqiu, a modern female agricultural student, traveled through time and became Su Wanqiu, a peasant girl whose family was in decline. Her father died young, her mother was weak, her younger brother was young, and the family only had two acres of thin farmland. She was forced to "adopt" her younger brother by her mean uncle (who wanted to swallow up the land). Looking at the open space in her backyard and the reeds by the river, she recalled the "ancient farm survival skills" she had learned in her previous life, and decided to start with "increasing revenue and reducing expenditure": growing "fast-growing vegetables" (such as spinach and Chinese cabbage, which can be quickly converted into money in a short period of time) in the backyard, weaving "straw mats and baskets" from reeds to sell, and teaching her mother to make "pickles" (to extend the shelf life of vegetables and eat them in winter). Faced with her uncle's troubles (stealing vegetables and spreading rumors that she was "not a woman"), she did not show weakness, sought out the truth, and used the money from selling vegetables to weave baskets to ask someone to testify. Later, she also engaged in "fish farming in rice fields" (to increase the income per acre), teaching other farm girls in the village to weave straw and making money together. From a farm girl who was bullied by others, to "Sister Late Autumn" who was able to support the family and raise money for her sisters, she lived a life of her own in the rural areas of Jiangnan during the Ming Dynasty, using her female tenacity and knowledge of agricultural techniques.
