I Told You to Pick Wild Greens in the Mountains, Not Pick Up Money

Farming + gathering herbs and hunting + coastal foraging + System + feel-good story + romance

After transmigrating, Su Ning becomes the lazy, vicious wife everyone loves to hate.

A hellish start: the family has nothing, her mother is mentally impaired, her younger siblings are skin and bones from hunger, and a pack of awful relatives are waiting to laugh at her.

Just as she thinks she’s about to starve to death in the street, the [Everything Recycling System] activates!

"Ding! Recycled weeds. Balance +1 copper coin!"

"Ding! Recycled a pheasant. Balance +100 copper coins!"

"Ding! Recycled a hundred-year-old He Shou Wu root. Balance +10 taels of silver!"

From then on, Su Ning’s life takes off.

She tears into her vicious second aunt, kicks the local ruffians to the curb, and goes from being the village’s most despised jinx to a renowned physician and a little landowner richer than anyone could imagine.

Just as life begins to look up, she happens to bring home a handsome man from the mountains who’s barely alive.

He has amnesia and never speaks, but his fighting skills are off the charts, and he watches her like a hungry wolf guarding its food.

She cooks, he tends the fire. She fights, he hands her a knife. If anyone so much as lays a finger on her, he’ll rip off one of their arms.

Thinking she’s got herself a loyal guard dog, Su Ning takes him along to farm and open a shop, quietly making a fortune.

Then one day, a troop of armored soldiers bristling with killing intent surrounds her little courtyard. They drop to their knees before the man and roar in unison:

"Marshal, we have come to escort you home!"

Su Ning stares at her "wild man," who just moments ago was clinging to her and begging for candy, too weak to fend for himself, and is completely dumbfounded.

How did the live-in son-in-law she signed up for turn into the all-powerful God of War of the North?
