Blurb 1
He Zhou unexpectedly transmigrated to a strange land and had a disastrous start from the start, with a dilapidated house to rebuild.
As if that weren't enough, women ruled this land.
Having arrived in this world, He Zhou could only take up the life of a chosen farmer. She cleared land and farmed, made a living and grew wealthy, gradually building a thriving life for herself.
Just as He Zhou thought her future was looking bright, she met a man with a wicked heart and ended up giving him her whole life.
In the Great Rong Kingdom, there was a young man named Pei Yin. He became famous across the land while still young, unmatched by anyone. What young man wouldn't want to emulate Pei Yin, and what young woman wouldn't adore the young master of the Pei family?
Unfortunately, the young master of the Pei family would smile gently and say, "There is no woman in this world who could stir my heart."

That day, the dreaded bandits attacked. He Zhou had no time to escape, so she dragged Pei Yin under the bed with her. The space beneath it was cramped, and He Zhou had no choice but to press close to him. After apologizing, she positioned herself on the outside to shield him.
The bandits came in force. One of them kicked the door open, and they scurried around the room like rats. He Zhou couldn't stop herself from trembling. She knew the bandits were utterly inhuman: they killed everyone they came across, sparing neither the old nor the young. How could anyone not be afraid?
But Pei Yin's mind had gone completely blank. The warmth in his arms, their skin touching... Who would have thought that the woman who was always so composed could have this side to her?
He hesitated for a moment, then raised a hand, gently pressing He Zhou's head against his chest as he turned to look outside.
The bandits entered the room and naturally found the two of them beneath the bed. They were excited, but also somewhat surprised.
How could they not be delighted? Their bandit chief, who had been missing for days, was right in front of them. Though the boss seemed a little strange at the moment. What time was it to be embracing a woman and getting up to something improper?
No, wait. Weren't improper things supposed to happen on the bed? Why were they happening under it?
No, wait. The bandit chief, who appeared gentle but was actually ruthless and cruel, was getting married?
No, wait. Why did the boss look so strange?
Pei Yin's expression turned cold. Without moving a muscle, he furrowed his brow and gave Bandit A a meaningful look. Bandit A suddenly understood.
The boss was saying:
"Wherever you came from, get back there!"
The bandits retreated in terror.

Reader's Guide:
1. A slow-burn farming story set in a fictional world. Please don't nitpick the historical details. I don't read the comments while the story is ongoing, so please understand.
2. In this story's setting, women have higher social status than men. Women marry men, and women give birth. The scenes between the male and female leads are written like those in a conventional story, since I don't know what category this setting falls under. Consider it a matriarchal story, but the setting in this book takes precedence. If this bothers you, please read with caution.
3. No content warnings are provided, so proceed with caution if you need them. None of the characters in the story are perfect.
Theme: Justice may be late, but it will come in the end.
