    A blend of historical fiction, fantasy, farming, hunting, and power struggles, this book is worth reading. A young lady from a wealthy family becomes a political sacrifice, assigned by the court to a poor hunter's household to pay taxes. Faced with their impoverished circumstances, she opens a school to teach children, while the hunters relentlessly venture into the mountains to hunt nuts, ferrets, and even snow leopards to protect their prey. Despite facing difficulties from the villagers, the two manage to build a home amidst wind and snow. It's lighthearted, heartwarming, and realistically portrays everyday life! The very first chapter will immediately grab your attention! It's not about a reborn villain; both the male and female leads have strong moral principles! It's very slice-of-life and heartwarming! High quality! Single female lead!
