Shen Wanqing, a master’s graduate in agricultural science, opened her eyes to find herself in the body of Shen Suihe, a pitiful girl from a farming family.
Her father had died early, her family’s property had been seized, her little brother still needed raising, and her awful relatives were watching like tigers.
Fortunately, she had a brilliant mind.
Improving soil, selecting superior seeds, making sauces and brewing wine: she drew on modern agricultural knowledge to start from nothing and carve out a path to prosperity in the middle of nowhere.
Just as life began to flourish, trouble arrived one thing after another.
Her greedy step-grandmother, a scheming wealthy merchant, and corrupt officials all wanted to take a bite out of her.
Shen Suihe welcomed every challenge and deftly countered every move, growing her business from the countryside all the way to the capital. Even the emperor marveled at her talent.
There was only one person she couldn’t handle.
Pei Jin, the taciturn hunter, always appeared when she needed him most, bringing game, mending fences, and chasing off hooligans. The way he looked at her grew more and more ardent.
“Miss Shen, when will you finally give me a chance?”
Then, one day, enemy forces invaded. He donned his armor and stood at the front lines, alone with a spear.
Only then did Shen Suihe realize that the man who pestered her every day to let him marry into her family was actually the great general who guarded the north, a man whose very name terrified the enemy.
She asked him, “What is it you want from me?”
He replied, “I want you. I want your heart. I want there to finally be room for me in your eyes alongside your crops.”
This is the story of a heroine who rises to noble rank through farming, while being pursued by a general who wants to marry into her family.
A satisfying, sweet romance with two powerful leads who dote on each other. She’s all about her career, and he’s all about love.
