After Binding to a Farming System, This Lazy Fish Was Forced to Get to Work

Blurb:

In her previous life, Mo Wenqing was forced by her parents to study agricultural science, a subject she hated. She planned to scrape by with just enough points to graduate, but then everything changed: she transmigrated.

Her stepmother didn't care for her, her scumbag father didn't love her, and now they were going to sell her and her younger brother to gangsters to pay off their debts.

Mo Wenqing: A hellish start? I'm tired. Let's just destroy everything.

Ding! Congratulations, Host. You are now bound to the Farming System. Complete the face-slapping and scumbag-punishment missions at once, or you will be erased.

System: Erasure countdown: 10, 9...

Mo Wenqing: Wait, I can do it!

The siblings had nothing to eat and lived in a bare, empty house.

Ding! Host, research high-yield crops and lead your family out of poverty.

Mo Wenqing: I hate agriculture.

System: Die!

Mo Wenqing: Fine, I'll do it myself.

She encounters villagers being oppressed by the county magistrate. Burdened by taxes, they live in poverty.

Ding! Host, drive out the county magistrate and lead the villagers to prosperity.

Mo Wenqing: The people shouldn't fight the officials.

System: Do it or die.

Mo Wenqing: I'll damn well do it!

Just then, drought strikes the northwest, leaving the land strewn with the dead from hunger.

Ding! Host, go to the northwest, cultivate rice, and help the country through this crisis.

System: You have ten seconds left to live... Wait, how did you complete the mission?

Mo Wenqing had thought she was just an outsider, and that all she needed to do was survive.

But this time, she had seen old wives weeping by the roadside in the depths of winter, dressed in thin clothes; she had seen rich men's gates reeking of wine and meat while frozen bodies lay by the road; she had seen Jiangnan struck by drought, and the people of Quzhou resorting to cannibalism.

From then on, she could no longer stand by and do nothing...

Rumor had it that Qi Mu, the elegant and illustrious Prince of Ningbei of the Li Kingdom, famed for his unmatched courage in battle, had been ambushed by treacherous enemies and disappeared without a trace.

When drought struck the northwest, Qi Mu, missing for over three years, traveled to Qilian with a woman.

The northwest, the borderlands, the deserts, the snowy mountains... Their footsteps carried them across the land, and peace and prosperity followed wherever they went.

Whether in brothels and pleasure houses, along willow-lined streets and flower-filled lanes, or amid endless yellow sands and emerald mountains, he always held her hand.

He told her, "You are my wife. I'll accompany you as we travel across every river and mountain."

Theme: Cherish food. Every grain is hard-earned through the sweat of the brow.
