Natural disasters, stockpiling grain, hunters, foresight, land reclamation, devoted one-on-one romance, no household infighting
A nightmare gave her a glimpse of the human devastation two years in the future: a thousand miles of barren land, locust swarms devouring everything, epidemics running rampant after the floods, and every member of her family dying.
Wen Zhisu woke drenched in cold sweat and immediately resolved to stockpile food, dig a well, reclaim land, and prepare seeds.
The Zhao clan was hostile to outsiders, and newcomers had no one to rely on. The only person worth entrusting herself to was Wen Qiao, a hunter who lived in the back mountains.
He wasn't good with words, but he was willing to work hard at everything. She planned their future while he got down to work.
When the village gossips freely spread rumors about the two of them, their parents simply arranged a marriage, so the families could band together and support one another.
They reclaimed land and planted sorghum and millet, went into the mountains to stockpile game, and built a stone courtyard on the hillside to keep out floodwater.
When famine struck right on schedule, other families were gnawing on tree bark and digging up edible clay, while Wen Zhisu's extended family had full granaries, a well that never ran dry, and the forest at their backs, with no shortage of food or clothing.
It turned out the best way to spend the rest of your life was to prepare for trouble before it arrived, with someone by your side to weather the natural disasters and chaos.
The author's words are very gentle, like the sunset in the evening, warm 🥰🥰🥰
It's very interesting. Please give it a try, the author. 😘
From ancient times to the present, hardworking people will not starve to death. These books are good, but there are no fairy tales for the time being.
It's very well written, keep up the good work
