Upon reaching marriageable age, the emperor bestowed upon her a princess's residence, larger than two of the princes' mansions. Her husband was a young general who had just won a battle, only nineteen years old. The emperor personally issued an edict of marriage, with a dowry of hundreds of carts. Along with the dowry, four handsome male concubines personally selected by Wen Yuanzhi were also prepared. On the wedding day, the male concubines were delivered to the princess's residence along with the hundreds of carts of dowry. However, upon returning to her room after the wedding ceremony, she overheard news outside that the husband was making things difficult for her male concubines. Before Wen Yuanzhi could even react with anger, a long sword pierced her chest. It must have been that jealous husband who murdered her! With one blink, Wen Yuanzhi found herself as the youngest daughter of the Wen family in Dahe Village, pampered by her entire family. But in this awful era, food and clothing were scarce, and even a piece of meat was a struggle. Spoiled since childhood, Wen Yuanzhi wished she could strangle herself and return to the Great Qi Dynasty. Then, she saw the officer she had fallen into the water with, who looked exactly like her husband. Wen Yuanzhi laughed in anger. Since her husband had brought her to this godforsaken place, he should take responsibility for her future. (E. G., 1.

    Is this book any good? It's incredibly good! The female lead is intelligent, not a saint, has her own opinions, doesn't do charity work, works hard to get into a vocational school, and refuses to go to the countryside. The rating is a bit low because there aren't many reviewers. It mainly depicts the warm daily life of the main family. A major advantage is its excellent sense of the era; this is the most focused on historical setting I've read on Tomato Book. Prices are reasonable and precise, down to the cents or a few tickets. The details are meticulous, and there aren't many awful characters. It feels like you're truly living in that era. The only downside is the slow pace; there isn't much romance yet. You can read it as a historical fiction combined with a farming/rural story.
