[Born Into the Past] [Raising Children] [Farming] [Famine]
Bai Manjia worked herself to death in her previous life. After transmigrating to ancient times, she wants to make it up to her former self and lie flat like a lazy fish.
The System wants her to stir up trouble and collect Grudge Points. Sorry, she's not about to compete or work herself to the bone. She'll stir up trouble once in a while, and as long as she has enough supplies to get by, that's good enough.
Then one day, she meets Zhou Yuzhao, the most handsome man she's ever seen in either life. He leaves her dizzy with infatuation. She has to marry him.
They get engaged, marry, and she becomes pregnant.
Her first pregnancy brings triplets, putting immense pressure on Bai Manjia. Her second brings quadruplets, and a famine strikes. Bai Manjia can no longer lie flat.
She takes over household management from her spendthrift, spiteful in-laws.
She earns Grudge Points, trades them for secret recipes at the shop, does business, gets seeds, improves farming tools, makes life better, builds wealth, and raises her children to a comfortable life.
Fortunately, no matter how exhausted she gets, seeing that handsome face gives her strength again.
It's just that everyone in the family seems to be more than they appear.
Her mother-in-law is an expert at music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and reads and writes better than even the old scholar.
Her father-in-law is strong enough to kill a wolf with one punch.
When bandits arrive, the father and son don't show the slightest fear facing a group of burly brutes armed with knives.
What kind of family has she married into?
Many years later, with the imperial family running low on heirs, they come searching in this remote mountain backwater.
They say her husband has imperial blood and must return to inherit the family legacy.
Well, somehow she's ended up rising to glory right along with him.
The imperial family struggles to produce heirs, while its enemies have no successors.
Jiajia gives birth to triplets, and her in-laws beam with pride, grinning from ear to ear.
Then she has her second pregnancy: quadruplets. Her in-laws' smiles slowly vanish.
Soon after, famine strikes, and they can't smile at all.
Seven children in four years, and now there's a famine and war. How are they supposed to feed them all?
