Our Little Treasure Brings Good Fortune: A Bumper Harvest in a Year of Famine

The fourth son of the Lin family, the son of a God of War, died for his country, leaving behind a daughter yet to be born, Lin Fubao. One night, Old Madam Lin dreamed of a golden phoenix settling into her arms. From then on, the once destitute Lin family saw their fortunes turn, and their lives took an unbelievable turn for the better.

When they were hungry, a nanny goat showed up to feed them. During a famine, a tiger dragged a wild boar to their door. When plague struck, birds brought them precious medicinal herbs. When war broke out, the enemy’s warhorses switched sides... Blessed by Lin Fubao’s good fortune, the Lin family rose from utter poverty to become the richest household around.

But the whole family was worried sick. The future emperor, famed for his ruthlessness and his power over the court, had somehow started camping out at their home and refused to leave. Every day, he fixed his burning gaze on the fresh-faced “little cabbage” they had raised, Lin Fubao, and declared that he would marry no one but her.

The Lin family was close to tears, praying that Heaven would hear them. Please, can someone lure away this “golden pig” who keeps trying to root up our cabbage? We just want to farm in peace and raise our children!
