    A historical fiction. A transmigration-themed farming novel that subverts typical tropes. Su Wan's body is possessed by a transmigrated woman for three years. During these three years, the transmigrated woman's antics are outrageous. First, she plots "my father marrying into the family and I becoming rich," tricking her father into marrying a wealthy woman, then forcibly taking the wealthy woman's son, the future richest man, into her possession. Her eldest sister marries the transmigrated man's older brother in his place, and her married life is miserable! She marries her second sister to the future beverage tycoon, her fourth sister is betrothed to the future scrap king—a paper tycoon, and her fifth brother learns from the transmigrated man to get rich together. Her sisters all become pawns in her marriage alliances, tools for her future wealth accumulation. Not only that, she also raises a pond full of big fish... The two biggest of which are the transmigrated male protagonist, Yu Xiangdong, who started from scratch and is destined to become incredibly wealthy. The other is her husband, Huo Chenxiao, whom she married not long ago. Although a supporting character, he will inherit billions in assets. The book describes him in only one sentence: angering him will only lead to death.
