Reclaiming the Wasteland With My General Husband

Also titled: The Youngster Is Always Worried His Family Will Go Bankrupt, So He Loves Farming

After three years of marriage, Gu Xuan had become the poor old wife everyone pitied for having a husband like the great general Meng Huaishi.

When she heard that the great general had been demoted and sent to reclaim wasteland in the desert, Gu Xuan immediately asked her father-in-law to submit a petition on her behalf. She wanted to follow her husband to the frontier and stand by his side!

At last, an imperial decree arrived, granting her permission to go to the frontier. Gu Xuan ignored everyone's attempts to dissuade her and gleefully prepared to leave. The noblewomen of the capital were moved to tears by her devotion, and even the emperor thought her character noble, granting her the title of Sixth-Rank Lady.

The great general watched as she showed her true colors just two days after getting out of bed, busily clicking her abacus, and wanted to cry. You've all got her wrong! She's not that devoted! She doesn't love me. She even calculates the value of my underwear!

Gu Xuan looked at him coolly. Who said I have feelings for you? I'm a money-making machine without a heart.

Three years later, the frontier's crops had flourished, and goods from north and south converged there. The place was bustling and prosperous, transformed into the heartland.

"Travelers from north and south, come take a look! Sichuan gold-thread brocade, just a thousand taels per chi! Don't miss out as you pass by!" When she felt someone tug at her pants, Gu Xuan kicked out without hesitation, then realized something was wrong.

A little dumpling of a boy was squatting on the ground, his jade-white face full of hurt. He was so angry he was about to cry.

"Waaah... Mother is picking on me again!"

Gu Xuan felt a little bad, so she deliberately put on a fierce face to scare him. "Keep crying and I'll sneak out and pull up the corn you've planted!"

The little dumpling froze, looking completely disbelieving.

Gu Xuan smirked triumphantly. You're so young, and you think you can get the better of your mother? You're just a little kid, but you already want to farm and accuse me of profiteering...

Volume One: I'm getting older, so I'm going to have a baby. Gu Xuan packs her bags, runs to the frontier, and sleeps with her husband.

Volume Two: The young boy has loved farming since birth. Gu Xuan sells grilled skewers and sneaks bites of the fresh corn her son grew. It really is sweet.

Volume Three: It's so satisfying to livestream ancient and modern times and sell goods. "Ma'am, one horse costs thirty taels. You want ten? Great, we'll ship them tomorrow..."

Volume Four: Is that legendary husband really just a tool?

The young boy was the little son of a landlord who died young in his previous life.
