After Becoming the Golden Finger for the Villain of a Farming Novel

Li Shu transmigrated into a farming novel built around contrasting characters, becoming a little pear tree growing deep in the mountains behind the protagonist's village. The protagonist came from a wealthy family with vast farmland and had been sent to study in town as a child. A single outfit cost several taels of silver. The antagonist was born into poverty and took odd jobs everywhere, earning less than ten copper coins a day. He could not even afford thread to mend his clothes. The protagonist had a loving family and doting parents, with a servant boy tending to him at every meal. The antagonist's parents might as well not have existed: his father was a gambler, his mother played favorites, and the slightest displeasure earned him a vicious beating. The protagonist was generous and popular with everyone. The antagonist was gloomy, cold, and petty, said to bring misfortune to his kin, so the villagers avoided him like the plague... Having just read the plot where the antagonist met a tragic death before he transmigrated, Li Shu thought, "...That's just too awful." / After Liu Xianxue was driven out of his home by his parents, he had nowhere to go and stumbled into the mountains, where he unexpectedly came across a slender little pear tree. The sapling was no thicker than his wrist, yet it brimmed with vitality, utterly unlike someone as numb, cold, and brokenhearted as him. "A tree this skinny wouldn't even be worth chopping up for firewood." He collapsed beneath it in a daze, feeling someone gently lift him. When he woke again... he found several pears beside him and snow-white pear blossoms scattered all over him. He took a few bites of the sweet, refreshing fruit, then dug up the sapling and brought it home. / Liu Xianxue rose from poverty to become a man of immense wealth, building grand new blue-brick houses with tiled roofs. Everyone said Master Liu was an odd sort. Though he possessed a fortune, he cared nothing for fine wine or beautiful women. The only thing he doted on was the pear tree in his courtyard. During a break from their house-building work, villagers happened to see Young Master Liu standing beneath the pear tree. He lifted a soft branch and pressed a kiss to it, his gaze intent. A breeze stirred the blossoms, and the branches rustled softly, again and again, as if answering him. ★ Transmigrate into a book / human x tree spirit.
