Song Yunshao traveled from the apocalypse to an ancient mountain village. It was poor and backward, and bandits were running amok.
Song Yunshao: "Who says this place is awful? It's amazing!"
There are no earthquakes, tsunamis, or volcanic eruptions, and no one is fighting over a bite to eat. There's land to farm, food to eat, and work to do. Life here is wonderful!
She decided to enjoy her peaceful life and roll up her sleeves to get to work.
To earn money, she went to work as a maid for the wealthy Fang family in town, only to be unexpectedly dragged into a marriage meant to bring good fortune to a sick man.
Fang Qihe, the groom forced into the marriage, spoke coldly. "Don't think marrying into my family means you'll be dressed in gold and silver. I'll provide you with three meals a day, but only one of them will have meat."
"You'll have to work for two hours every day to earn half a tael a month. My family doesn't keep freeloaders."
"And don't even think you'll bear a child for the Fang family. I'll never touch you."
Song Yunshao almost fell to her knees on the spot. Four hours of work a day in exchange for food, shelter, and money? Even the strongest fortress in the apocalypse couldn't offer terms that good.
She agreed without a second thought and worked diligently every day for her meals.
As time went by, Fang Qihe began to question himself. Had he misunderstood her? Maybe she wasn't greedy for wealth at all. Maybe she'd simply had a hard life before.
But before Fang Qihe could apologize, the entire Fang family was kidnapped by bandits.
When Song Yunshao heard what had happened, she worried that without her employer, she'd have no work.
That night, she put on combat boots and a bulletproof vest, then charged into the bandits' den alone.
They say the bandits' den rang with screams that night, as a young woman fought her way through seven waves of enemies to save her husband.
Song Yunshao, hailed by the people as a hero: "I don't know either. Isn't taking on ten people at once an essential apocalypse survival skill?"
Fang Qihe, brought back safe and sound: "She loves me! That's right, she's madly in love with me!"
Fang Qihe: "I've decided to improve your conditions."
Song Yunshao: Finally, the moment I've been waiting for. Maybe he'll agree to give me an extra chicken leg every day.
Fang Qihe: "Become the one and only mistress of the Fang family."
Song Yunshao: Damn! That's more work. I wonder if there'll be chicken legs.
Fang Qihe pulled out a stack of house deeds, land deeds, and silver. "Spend whatever you like."
