[Farming + father and daughter transmigrate together + everyday fortune-building]
The eldest daughter-in-law of the Jiang family in Daliushu Village has been married for fifteen years without bearing a son. Her mother-in-law torments her every day and even eggs her eldest son on to divorce his wife and sell their daughters.
Jiang Wan, who transmigrated from the modern world, takes on her scummy grandmother and kicks the matchmaker, vowing to protect her poor little sister.
Then she turns around and sees her foolishly filial scumbag father coming home
Jiang Dashan is famous in Daliushu Village for being a “dutiful son.” He listens to his mother about everything, big or small, and even silently approves when she tries to sell his daughter.
But after he falls into an irrigation ditch and is rescued, he unexpectedly starts standing up for the wife and daughters he used to look down on, insisting on splitting the family with his two younger brothers.
Jiang Wan, who had been all set to make a scene, is completely stunned. “Comrade Dashan?”
“N-Nannan?”
…
After the family splits up, Jiang Dashan’s household has neither money nor food, and the second and third branches are waiting to laugh at them.
Instead, Jiang Dashan takes his wife and daughters to reclaim wasteland and farm it, then starts a small business. Their lives grow better and better.
When famine strikes, every household is eating bran and wild greens, but his family feasts on meat at every meal. The smell of rice and meat makes the second and third branches drool.
Jinbao from the third branch comes to their door. “Uncle, Grandma says she wants some meat.”
Jiang Wan shuts the door in his face. “You didn’t give us a single grain of rice when we split the family, and now you think you can freeload? Dream on!”
