The heroine, Gu Qingci, is a 26-year-old doctoral student in folklore studies and a documentary photographer with a niche following. To complete her doctoral dissertation, Gu Qingci becomes the "invisible person" on the variety show Be a Farmer.
She documents the sweat and growth of ten young men, yet always sees herself as an outsider.
Especially Li Gengyun, who's like a hard lump of dirt and deeply wary of her as someone who got in through connections.
But when she uses her expertise to help them save their seedlings, and her camera captures not their disheveled state but the light in their eyes,
she becomes one of the boys, someone they can trust.
And the man who resisted her most is the one who lights a lamp to guide her home late at night when academic pressure weighs on her.
He teaches her the grounding comfort of having her feet in the soil, and she teaches him to listen to his heart.
What they plant together is not only 142.8 mu of wheat, but also a love that sprouts in the fields and comes to harvest with the seasons.
Pure otome romance! OOC ahead!
