Facing a scumbag father and stepmother, she quickly finds a new, devoted father and finds solace in her grandmother. It's a heartwarming, gentle, and healing story. The only plot hole I noticed is the 5-2-2 academic system used to arrange her university education. Some details are a bit unclear, like how her 62-year-old grandmother was able to arrange a job in the city and work until she was 67 before selling it. Back then, it was impossible to work until that age for a regular job, right? Before her transmigration, the protagonist was raised by her grandmother. Her parents were extremely patriarchal and wanted to exploit their daughter. The protagonist has a rebellious spirit but is also very lonely. Her cat, named Sangbiao, was also abandoned. They find solace in each other! After transmigrating, the protagonist quickly adapts to her new role, doing a lot of farm work and showing great resilience! She helps uncover two Taiwanese connections, helps catch human traffickers, and rescues many abducted children! He invented tools for threshing corn kernels and drilling wells. During the three years of food shortages, he used grain from a supermarket to save many people in the surrounding area, and the supermarket subsequently disappeared!
