Bai Cheng, a woman with a PhD in engineering, wakes up in the body of a poor farming girl in ancient times.
No electricity, no internet, no takeout, just a sick father, a fierce mother, and a little dumpling of a brother.
She rolls up her sleeves, improves the loom, invents new things, and starts a business. Just as life begins to improve, her childhood betrothed shows up.
He hasn't come to break off the engagement. He wants to marry her.
Bai Cheng: “Who are you? I’ll agree to breaking off the engagement, but marriage is out of the question.”
Fu Chen: “No. We have to get married.”
Bai Cheng takes one look at his face and falls silent.
Fine. He passes the looks test. They can talk.
Less than three months into their marriage, the emperor grows wary of the Fu family’s power and designs a frame-up that gets the entire family exiled to Lingnan.
Bai Cheng looks at the family of old, weak, and sickly people and sighs.
“Exile it is. Think of it as starting a business somewhere new.”
In Lingnan, while everyone else despairs and waits to die, her eyes light up.
“There are mines? Land? Water power? This is a natural industrial hub!”
She makes cement, builds waterworks, improves farming tools, and develops gunpowder formulas…
Others wage war with sheer numbers. She wages it with technology.
She whips her good-for-nothing husband into becoming a rebel leader, and together they fight their way from Lingnan back to the capital.
On the day he takes the throne, Fu Chen declares before all the civil and military officials:
“She owns half this empire. Starting today, we rule together.”
Bai Cheng adds:
“And my laboratory starts construction tomorrow.”
I told you from the beginning that you are an engineering student, so everything goes smoothly, so it is not so awkward.
Seeing that the male protagonist's family was in jail, the female protagonist did not intend to break off the engagement. She felt that she was not decisive enough and was a little bit love-minded. She agreed to break off the engagement first and then help develop her own career.
I saw that the middle part is good, there is no stupid text, and it is not a love story!
Yes, I like to see Tuanzi's paintings, they are warm and friendly.
