Blurb:

Du Xirong has no parents. At twenty-two, she signs a contract with the Earth Transmigration System. Under the terms of the agreement, she'll be sent to the planet Altamu in the depths of the Milky Way. If she manages to stay there for three months, she can return to Earth and receive a substantial sum of money.

Du Xirong: Is that planet nice?

System: It's great.

As she breaks rocks for hard labor in Altamu's endless mines, Du Xirong says, "Great my foot! I want to go home!"

System: Stay for three months and you can return. Please be patient.

Du Xirong: I'll endure it for the money.

At mealtime, another miner tells her, "Don't listen to the System's nonsense. I've been here half a year and still haven't gone home."

Du Xirong: Dies.

Not long afterward, Du Xirong finds work under Prince Xiu'erlisi. Altamu is in the grip of famine, and its most important food source, the red-veined fruit tree, is dying in huge numbers. Unless they find a new food source, everyone on the planet will starve to death. Xiu'erlisi takes responsibility and, persuaded by Du Xirong, sets out with her to find food in the primeval forest. Deep in the forest, in a valley, Du Xirong looks at the sea of green and bursts into tears.

Xiu'erlisi: Alien, have you never seen grass before?

Du Xirong: That's not grass. That's a whole field of rice!

Xiu'erlisi: What's rice?

Du Xirong: Hah. Country bumpkin.
