The moment she opens her eyes, she's a convict slave being exiled.
Half a sack of coarse grain is all she's worth. Anyone left unchosen gets sent to the rear camp to serve as a military prostitute.
She can only take a gamble: stop the strongest man there and offer herself as his wife.
"I know medicine. I can cure your mother's illness."
The man looks at her, then turns and runs.
"This is bad! He doesn't want me. Now I can't escape."
"Here, half a sack of coarse grain. I'll take her."
And just like that, he trades for her and takes her home.
The house is bare, her father-in-law is long dead, there are younger siblings to care for, and her mother-in-law has been bedridden for two years. The villagers wait to see them make a fool of themselves: what can you do with a scrawny convict slave bought for a bit of grain?
Xu Ning rolls up her sleeves. She gathers herbs, farms, practices acupuncture, and writes prescriptions. With her medical skills and medicinal herbs, she saves lives, using the knowledge from her previous life and her pocket dimension to prop up this crumbling household.
Her mother-in-law can walk again. The rice jar is full. The barren hills have become fields of medicinal herbs.
At last, the villagers realize that Qin An's half sack of grain was a bargain. He brought home a wife fit for the immortals.
Later, war breaks out on the frontier.
Qin An dons his armor and heads to battle while she commands the rear. He fights the enemy; she saves lives.
Everyone knows that General Qin's greatest asset isn't his military achievements. It's his peerless physician of a wife.
