I Get Rich by Farming with My Cooking Skills

The novel is complete. The next novel is "The Ultimate Temptation."

Blurb: Ruan Mian had only just earned the title of Culinary Goddess when she was swept up in the transmigration craze, going from top chef to an ancient peasant girl.

Her parents had died young, her elder brother had been conscripted, her sister-in-law had not yet finished her month of confinement, and two little nephews were waiting to be fed. When she checked the rice jar, there was not a grain left.

The original owner had been doted on by her family since childhood. Now that the family had fallen on hard times, Ruan Mian gritted her teeth and decided to shoulder the burden and become the family’s mainstay.

Fortunately, she had a farming System. Every completed task earned her a reward.

Task 1: Get milk for her newborn niece.

Ruan Mian put her culinary skills to work and entered a cooking competition hosted by a city restaurant. She won first place, earned her first pot of gold, and cooked a table full of milk-boosting dishes for her sister-in-law.

The System rewarded her with an acre of fertile land, an especially precious gift in a time of famine.

Task 2: Give the refugees a filling meal.

Ruan Mian rolled up her sleeves and started planting. Before long, she had a bumper harvest. With her clever hands, she found ten different ways to prepare a single meal, helping refugees fleeing the famine.

The System rewarded her with several dairy cows and flocks of chickens and ducks. The Ruan family farm gradually took shape.

Later, Ruan Mian made full use of the System’s functions, and her family business continued to grow. She also acquired several more secret identities: farm owner, grain merchant, tea shop owner, restaurant owner...

In a chaotic age, the Ruan family name made its way through thorns. She was generous and charitable, and everyone praised her.

Now that she had achieved success and fame, Ruan Mian thought she could finally lie flat and enjoy life as a carefree slacker.

System: New task. Host, find your ideal husband and settle down for good.

Ruan Mian, a workaholic in both her lives: You might as well kill me.

System: Look, the man outside seems pretty good.

Ruan Mian peered out the window. It was the pharmacist from the neighboring clinic.

Over eight feet tall, with wheat-colored skin, a strong build, and a handsome but stern face, he looked less like a pharmacist and more like a rough martial artist who could crush her with his bare hands.

Ruan Mian shook her head repeatedly. Rumor had it he had a bad temper and liked to hit people. I value my life.

Not long afterward, Ruan Mian watched the man carefully stitch up her wound with hands as delicate as a needle, and her heart stirred.

"What was it you asked me just now?"

Bai Jian: "If you marry me, I will risk my life to protect you for the rest of yours. Will you give me that chance?"

Ruan Mian smiled radiantly.

Not long afterward, Ruan Mian became the general’s wife, admired by everyone.

Completed novel: "I Became the Male Lead’s Green Tea Stepmother"

Blurb: Zhou Rang was tossed by a System into a melodramatic coming-of-age novel where everyone gets a bad ending, becoming the male lead’s green tea stepmother and the story’s biggest villain.

From the start, she was a winner in life: a son without the pain of childbirth, a gorgeous celebrity, a wealthy wife, doting in-laws, and a husband who never came home!

As long as she did not cause trouble, she could enjoy this life until the end.

System: "Fill your startup progress bar, or your lifespan will run out!"

To stay alive, Zhou Rang put her old fashion-design skills to use and embarked on the grueling road of building a business from scratch.

When it came to business, Zhou Rang’s ability was below zero, and losing money was a regular occurrence.

With over a million followers on Weibo, she thought that posting a single message ought to sell at least a few outfits. Instead, the next morning she was trending: #ZhouRangHackedByHomespunClothing.

Her greatest consolation was getting into her own Aston Martin after a miserable day and returning to her billion-yuan home for a hot bath.

Just when she thought building a business was a distant dream, the clothes she designed became a sensation!

All because her celebrity son had strutted around on a show wearing the outfit she had sewn for him.

The next day, her inbox was flooded with emails asking to work with her!

She casually designed a little bracelet, which her daughter wore to a school performance. A few hours later, the internet was full of posts asking where to buy one!

Later, Zhou Rang went from a washed-up celebrity to a top-tier star, and the brand she founded became an international trendsetter.

Zhou Rang wept with joy. I may be a slacker, but I have two genius kids. What a bargain!

After Leng Chen died, he was reborn in his five-year-old body with just one goal: to get rid of the source of his tragic life, his stepmother Zhou Rang.

Then he suddenly heard her thoughts.

"So this is what the tragic male lead was like as a kid. So adorable, so handsome, so cute. I want to kiss him bald!"

"Good boy, come to Mommy. Mommy loves you."

"It’s time to vote for my son!"

Leng Chen: "..."

How was he supposed to get his revenge now?! (Throws a tantrum.)

Little Theater:

Leng Ting was a workaholic who had no interest in romance. To him, marriage was just an arrangement made by his parents, an accessory to life.

On Valentine’s Day, he stood Zhou Rang up for work, leaving her alone on a luxury yacht to admire the moon and stars.

That night, his computer system was attacked, and he could not get any work done.

His five-year-old son, Leng Chen, stood in the doorway holding a computer, his face icy. "Go spend the holiday with Mom and make her happy, or I’ll destroy your business."

Leng Ting: "???"

Coming soon: "Stop Bothering Me"

Blurb: When Su Yimu was thirteen, she gathered all her courage and traveled alone from the northern frontier to Nanyang to find her mother.

Her striking, beautiful, exotic features attracted a shady follower. She picked up a stone and hurled it wildly, accidentally injuring a boy.

His gaze was cold as ice. She apologized in fear and trembling.

The boy wiped the blood from his forehead and cut off her sobs, sounding casual and impatient. "Be quiet. I don’t eat people."

He was taciturn, almost cold, yet he went with her to look for her mother.

As it happened, her mother’s home was right next door to his.

Ji Yansheng was a famous figure in Nanyang. He loved developing cutting-edge intelligent technology, became famous at a young age, and won numerous awards. At the same time, he was a troublemaker: arrogant, cold-blooded, and fond of breaking conventions. People admired him, feared him, and found him exasperating.

On her first day living with the Su family, Su Yimu received all kinds of advice from her new relatives.

Her mother: "Don’t go bothering the Ji boy next door. He has a strange temper and hits people when he’s in a bad mood."

Her stepfather: "He treats everyone with indifference. If he ignores you, don’t take it personally."

Her stepbrother: "If anyone at school asks whether you know him, deny it. Otherwise, you’ll be cursed with bad luck."

Later, Su Yimu discovered that...

When she got caught in the rain without an umbrella, he came to get her.

When she got lost on a field trip, he came to find her.

When her grades were poor, he tutored her.

When she got into a fight, he took care of the aftermath.

He seemed to be annoyed by everything in the world, with one exception: her.

*

At eighteen, she finally worked up the courage to confess the crush she had kept secret for years.

After a long silence, he looked at her coolly. "Stop bothering me."

Her smile and all her hopes shattered in an instant. Then she saw a stunning girl, beautiful as a painting, walk out of his room wearing his clothes.

That day, she finally understood that the special connection she had treasured was all in her head.

*

Several years later, the research team led by Su Yimu won numerous international awards.

At the same time, Ji Yansheng was framed by a trusted aide, and his company was on the verge of bankruptcy.

Everyone around her urged her to seize the opportunity and buy it out, but she said, "He’s too proud to accept."

That night, they met by chance.

She put on a distant air and tried to walk past him, but he grabbed her wrist.

"President Su, please take me in."

*

Only later did Su Yimu realize that his supposed bankruptcy had all been part of a plan he had been laying for a long time.

Theme: Fear no difficulties, and press bravely forward.
