    [Double Cleanliness] [Spoiling Wife] [Happy Ending] [Pastoral Life] Shangguan Qingyue, though not possessing stunning beauty, is still quite pretty and charming. Her greatest strength is her clear-headedness and lack of greed. She transmigrates into a family plagued by misfortune—her father suffers a stroke, her mother is weak, relatives are indifferent, and even the entire village dislikes her. To make matters worse, her mother couldn't give birth to a son, leading to her being looked down upon by everyone. Handed a bad hand, Zhou Qingyue quickly accepts reality and actively tries to save herself. She leads the villagers in planting medicinal herbs, opening workshops, and building wealth. She loves nature, enjoys raising pets, and revels in pastoral life. Xuan Yuan Yan, who aspired to great things since childhood, didn't fall into the hands of his enemies, but he couldn't recover with Shangguan Qingyue. He gave up the struggle for power and accompanied her back to rural life. From initial resistance to final resignation, it didn't take him long. There was no way around it; Shangguan Qingyue was like a poison tailor-made for him—he couldn't quit and didn't want to quit; he even found it sweet. Since I can't let go, I'll keep her firmly by my side. I'll indulge her every whim. If she wants a pet, I'll buy her an estate where she can raise whatever she wants; if she wants to grow flowers and plants, the entire backyard of the mansion is hers to cultivate; if she wants to help more people, then work hard to earn more money, which she can spend as she pleases…
