Transmigrated into a book as a villainess who despised the poor, Lin Wanqiu opens her eyes to find the original owner packing up and fleeing, all because her newlywed husband, officer Gu Changfeng, injured his leg and became the “cripple” of the village.
Lin Wanqiu looks at the half-acre of overgrown land in the yard, then glances at the man crouched silently in the corner like a rock, and suddenly changes her mind.
Run away? Why bother?
It’s the 1980s, and opportunity is everywhere!
People laugh that a man with a bad leg has no future? She’s staying!
She improves the soil to grow out-of-season vegetables, digs a pond to raise fish in the rice paddies, and turns wasteland into a gold mine…
At first, Gu Changfeng watches coldly, assuming this pampered young lady will lose interest in three minutes.
Until he sees her slap her hard-earned money down on the table and say, hands on her hips, “Gu Changfeng, work with me, and I’ll have you living in a tiled-roof house by the end of the year!”
Later…
Zhang Cuihua, who used to mock them, blocks the doorway. “Wanqiu, can you teach your auntie to grow some crops too?”
Grandma Gu counts the money with trembling hands. “My grandson’s wife is a walking fortune!”
Changfeng watches the girl laughing brightly on the field ridge and quietly slips her knee pads into her bag. The ice in his eyes melts away.
No one ever expected that the once-scorned, lame officer would end up with a little gold mine, thanks to his wife who transmigrated into a book!
