The Jiang family of Xiaogu Village has a daughter, as lovely as a little jade doll, but she cannot laugh or cry, nor can she speak... Born dull and wooden, she is just like a lifeless wooden doll.

The Jiang family says the Mountain Goddess took their daughter's soul to teach her special skills, and that she will be fine once she has learned them.

The villagers mock her behind their backs: "Hmph, she's obviously an idiot!"

Who could have guessed that the face-slapping would come so soon? The Jiang family's little fool really does get better!

Her cooking is astonishing, she comes up with one moneymaking idea after another, and she can read and write. Before long, she leads the Jiang family to prosperity!

Porcelain in My Heart [Blurb]

After her father's death, Wen Ci seeks refuge in a general's household under the terms of a marriage contract.

Wen Ci knows that the general's protection saved her life.

She also knows that the general has no feelings for her, and that this marriage contract was secured at the cost of her father being condemned for trying to repay a favor by exploiting it.

On her wedding day, Wen Ci has already made up her mind.

She will keep to her place, play the role of the general's wife, and take care of all the general's worries. If he ever falls in love with someone else, she will not cling to her position as his lawful wife. She will take the initiative and ask to leave.

She will do this both to repay the general and to clear her father's name.

Wen Ci has thought everything through, but later, when she hears that the general has someone in his heart, her eyes still redden with hurt...

-

Zong Yue, the famous young General Who Guards the North, has long had someone in his heart. The only problem is that his pursuit of her has never gone well.

Later, when he finally manages to marry her, he is overjoyed, until one sentence from the woman he loves chills him to the bone:

"To repay the general, one day I will ask to be dismissed."

Repay him? Ask to be dismissed?

Zong Yue grits his teeth in anger.

Other people repay a debt of gratitude by pledging themselves to their benefactor. How come in his case, she wants to leave?

I Run a Farm in Ancient Times [Blurb]

Long Jiaojiao brings a box of grain seeds from the barren apocalypse to ancient times, where the soil has never been polluted.

So she clears land, tills the fields, and plants seeds...

Fine seeds from the apocalypse meet the fertile soil of ancient times:

From then on, the harvests are bountiful, the fruits and melons abundant, and the livestock thrives.

Hm? The livestock thrives?

Can animals grow out of the ground, too?!

Long Jiaojiao: Of course not! It's not the land doing it, it's my supernatural ability.

Care to learn about an ability that makes all the beasts bow to her?

Snakes and rats help her till the soil, birds help her sow the seeds,

Even a passing bear helps her break off ears of corn...

Chickens and ducks fly into their pen, and fish swim into the pond.

Even the big tiger on the mountain needs her help raising its cubs.

Long Jiaojiao: Protecting animals? I wouldn't dare!

Big Tiger: The things this human grows are so delicious. I'm never leaving!

Theme: Hard work and unity are the secrets to a family's prosperity.
