Su Wanwan, a modern agricultural sciences PhD, transmigrated into a living hell. Three months after her wedding, she was cast out, and now she faced a famine trek across a land scorched for miles. Alone, she ventured into a waterless, foodless ghost town in the northwest. To survive, she put her expertise in underground water veins and drought-resistant crops to use, telling the cold-faced general, "Give me a marriage certificate, and I'll make sure your frontier never runs short of food."
Everyone thought she was talking nonsense. But before long, spring water surged from a dried-up ancient well, improved drought-resistant crops covered the wasteland, and even the Xiao family troops, abandoned by the imperial court, were eating steaming hot meals!
General Xiao Lie had already resigned himself to dying in a besieged city. Instead, he watched as this woman turned the yellow sands into Jiangnan. She planted grain, but also kindled a home in his heart. When powerful ministers in the capital tried to plunder the city once more, they were met by the Xiao family troops' iron cavalry and the resolve of the entire city.
