[Cozy farming + size difference + super sweet romance + family life]
Cui Linrong has spent three years alone while her husband is away. After news comes of his death, she wants to establish an independent household in her own name.
In a poor, remote mountain village, that's practically an absurd fantasy!
She has no money, nowhere to live, a vicious mother-in-law who treats her like dirt, and even her birth family wants to trade her for another bride-price.
With no other choice, Cui Linrong sets her sights on a burly, broad-shouldered man.
He's a little scary, but those fists as big as sandbags can protect a home.
Him it is!
The villagers all shake their heads in secret, saying she's asking for trouble.
But then they watch Madam Cui open a workshop, make pastries, buy a shop, build a house, and help many villagers become prosperous...
The villagers are won over: Shopkeeper Cui, give us a hand...
At the foot of the mountain, in a fenced-in courtyard.
Spring, summer, autumn, and winter. The dog chases the chickens, and the kids chase the dog.
The granary gradually fills, and the household grows.
Their love is sweet as honey.
Some things are not for outsiders to know.
At dusk, the Xie family's dining table is laden with dishes and bowls.
The man comes down the mountain in a hurry, pushes open the courtyard gate, and sheds the day's exhaustion.
"Wife, I caught another big one today. I'll give you the best cuts of meat, hehe."
P.S.:
1. A village-native farming story, no transmigration.
2. The heroine only gets together with him after she's widowed, so there won't be any morally questionable boundary-crossing.

Xiaobao, the heroine was pregnant at the wrong time.
