[Food + Farming + Laid-back Daily Life + A Little Showbiz]
The sun is high, but I sleep alone. Who's an immortal? I'm an immortal.
Scoop up a handful of mountain spring water, watch the ducks paddle by, pick mushrooms after the rain, and catch grasshoppers at harvest time.
Su Tang, who transmigrated back from the apocalypse, received a "welcome package" and finally gave up on the 996-007 grind. She decided to stop competing, go home, and open a guesthouse!
Turns out, people actually do come to this godforsaken place.
But... why are all her guests either physically or mentally unwell?
...What a headache.
A top-tier star, thin as a sheet of paper and suffering from anorexia for three years, stayed at her place for half a month and polished off six free-range chickens and five pots of wood-fired rice. By the time he left, his face had gotten rounder. Reluctantly, he asked, "Sis, do you need help in the vegetable garden? I don't need pay, just feed me."
Su Tang: ...Get out.
An actress who got too deeply into her roles had won countless awards, but had nearly fallen into depression. Here, she farmed, weeded, raised chickens, walked the geese, wove baskets, and stoked the heated brick bed all day. At last, she could lie on it at night and, after a long silence, say, "It's good to be alive."
A writer with chronic insomnia came after hearing about the place, claimed the lounge chair under the jujube tree, and slept all day. Even the dog couldn't wake him.
A famously arrogant, aloof, and antisocial director put up trellises for tomatoes, staked the beans with bamboo, and in his spare time went down the mountain to play chess and chat with people.
With a special knack for growing premium fruit and vegetables using spring water, Su Tang's little guesthouse didn't just heal her. It also helped a group of people who had briefly lost their way and joy in life.
This is a story with a little bit of everything: food, farming, country life, showbiz, and even a little street vending.
