[Frontier life + raising kids and building wealth + villainous mother’s redemption + dual powers + claiming mountains and opening wasteland + infrastructure development + face-slapping rivals + powerful couple]
One wrong move, and Shen Qinghe, who had barely managed to survive the apocalypse, transmigrates into a book as the wicked mother of five future major villains.
To keep the grown-up villains from stabbing her to death, Shen Qinghe decides to turn over a new leaf and become a gentle, loving mother who works hard to earn money and raise her kids.
Luckily, she has dual powers. The spiritual spring water in her space improves wild fruits, while her wood-element ability helps her locate plants. The taro balls with fruit and ice, braised meats, and other delicacies she makes sell out in no time.
As she works hard to make money and give the children a better life, the son of a wealthy merchant confesses his love to her. But to her surprise, her husband, who was supposedly killed in battle, comes home!
Xiao Li: I’m not dead yet, so who dares covet my woman!
Shen Qinghe had thought Xiao Li was nothing but a brute who knew how to fight. It isn’t until nightfall that she discovers another side of him.
From then on, Xiao Li becomes a fiercely devoted husband.
She wants to claim a mountain and clear the land to plant fruit trees and medicinal herbs, and Xiao Li immediately offers up his military pay.
She wants to buy land and grow crops, and Xiao Li takes care of it at once.
He fights the enemy to defend their homeland, while she clears land, farms, and raises the children.
When the frontier army runs short of food, she sends supplies to help.
Her stepsister tries to copy her path to wealth, but only ends up losing more than she gains.
Under Shen Qinghe’s careful guidance, all five children grow up to be exceptional.
Xiao Li rises from an obscure junior officer to a renowned God of War.
Shen Qinghe’s small business grows from the frontier to the whole country, making her the most famous woman merchant in the land.
The heroine likes to eat other people's leftovers
