The Tu Shan family has always had only one child per generation. Their ancestors passed down an unremarkable jade pendant, along with a family instruction: it would only unlock on the day a pair of twins turned fourteen.
Her parents dismissed it as idle talk from their ancestors, until a boy and a girl were born as twins, reminding her of the old instruction.
The year Tu Shan Yueying turned fourteen, the pendant, dormant for a hundred years, suddenly lit up. Inside was a growth-oriented pocket dimension left behind by an immortal cultivator among her ancestors!
The dimension came with cultivation techniques to guide the whole family in tempering their bodies and building their strength. It also held improved crop seeds and books from a thousand years in the future.
Just then, the borderlands were barren and the soil difficult to farm. Tu Shan Yueying was entrusted with a mission in a time of crisis and became a county magistrate on the frontier.
With her parents and elder brother by her side, and the pocket dimension to aid them, she trained their bodies, improved crop varieties, opened up wasteland, expanded the fields, and brought water to irrigate the land.
Gradually, thousands of acres of fertile farmland flourished along the sandy frontier, and remote villages grew prosperous. She led the people of the borderlands step by step out of hunger and hardship, turning a bitterly cold region into a thriving home.
After earning merit, the jade pendant began to unlock...
