Who Gets into Research Just to Be Lazy?

[Period setting + face-slapping + adored by everyone + getting rich + cuisine + wish fulfillment + black technology]

[High-IQ princess vs. capable, wild burly man + a whole family of rebellious "lazybones"]

Shen Jiaojiao, a top 21st-century PhD with dual degrees in mechanical and chemical engineering, transmigrates into the frail, helpless "good-for-nothing" educated youth of the 1970s. From the start, the whole village looks down on her and refuses to take her in?

What a joke! If you can solve a problem with your brain, why get your hands dirty?

To legally slack off, Shen Jiaojiao decisively moves into the village's most notorious nest of layabouts!

Who says laziness is a sin? We call this high-quality human living!

While villagers strain their backs hauling water from the well, she draws up a plan for a pulley system that lets her lift water with one hand, stunning everyone!

While commune members rub corn until their hands bleed, she invents a foot-powered thresher. Corn kernels shoot out like a Gatling gun, leaving the brigade leader dumbfounded!

Even the hardest thing to clean, pig intestines, are no match for her fully automatic washer. She turns them into state-banquet-quality braised delicacies, making the neighboring educated youth office drool!

Village women mock her as a sickly weakling? The Gu family dotes on her to no end!

Educated youth Lin Xue reports her for profiteering? The provincial supply and marketing cooperative director personally comes to ask for a partnership, and orders top 100,000 in a single day!

While the whole village is still struggling to pull plows, Shen Jiaojiao has already repaired a broken tractor and sits in the back counting the little goldfish Gu Zhou hands over to her.

With reddened eyes, Gu Zhou corners her beside the haystack. "Jiaojiao, this kind of strenuous work is still better left to me..."

Villagers: Please, Expert Shen, hurry and teach us how to slack off too!
