Wen Ning transmigrates into a book, becoming a delicate, pampered female intellectual sent to the countryside, someone who'd topple over with the slightest push.
From the start, it's hell mode: she's harassed by a scoundrel and has to help build a dam?
Looking at her own soft, delicate frame, Wen Ning promptly picks a fight with Lu Jin, the village's fiercest, meanest man, who will one day become a tycoon.
The whole village waits to see her make a fool of herself. “That Lu layabout has a terrible temper. The educated youth Wen probably won't last three days!”
But then
Wen Ning complains the road is too long and her feet hurt, so Lu Jin carries her!
Wen Ning says coarse cornmeal scratches her throat, so Lu Jin runs dozens of miles in the middle of the night to buy polished rice!
Wen Ning complains the bed is too hard to sleep on, so the rough-looking man blushes and lies beneath her. “Is it soft enough now?”
Later, the man notorious for his vicious temper treasures her above all else, and can't bear to say a single harsh word to her.
Looking at the mountain of supplies in her storage space and feeling her belly grow rounder by the day, Wen Ning smiles. “A rough-and-tumble man is a treasure. You'd know if you had one!”
