A Maid’s Flight from Famine? While Everyone Else Eats Grass, I Eat Meat

[Natural disasters and the Apocalypse + fleeing famine + farming + clever heroine + strong, tragic hero + satisfying revenge + no naive do-gooder]

When she wakes up, Jiang Sui, a master's graduate in agricultural science, has become an eight-year-old servant girl in the final years of a drought.

It's a catastrophe from the start: she's burning with a high fever, near death, and about to be thrown out by her master's family to feed the wolves!

While everyone else wails in despair, she silently searches the courtyard and digs the last life-saving shepherd's purse seed from a crack in the wall.

Dry sowing and wet sowing, composting, pest and disease control... The modern agricultural knowledge etched into her DNA is her only trump card for survival.

While everyone else waits to starve to death, she somehow cultivates a miraculous green oasis beside the foul ditch behind the kitchen!

From then on, this quiet little servant girl becomes the “lifeline” of the entire southbound migration.

Running out of water? She reads the birds and the terrain, leading her family to a life-saving spring!

Found something poisonous? Reciting the rhyme “Red umbrella, white stem,” she spots a deadly mushroom at a glance!

A flood is coming? She reads the clouds and the heavens, getting her family to higher ground just before the waters swallow everything!

The sickly second young master, whom the whole family says they can't keep alive, always looks at her with clear, cool eyes and stands up for her time and again.

“If she says we can survive, then we can.”

“If she says it's poisonous, then it's poisonous.”

“We'll take the road she chooses.”

Jiang Sui only wants to farm in peace, find her missing younger brother, and quietly make a fortune.

But who could have guessed that along the way, she'd not only keep her whole family alive, but accidentally save the entire realm as well, while turning the sickly, tragic young master into a regent with power over all?
