After Marrying a Sickly Man, I Raised Silkworms and Wove Silk to Boost the Economy

[I'm a new author and can't keep two books updated at once, so I'll update the other one first. Sorry, everyone.]

Female lead: Feisty, skilled at business, household politics, and managing a household and raising children

Male lead: Devoted, refined, handsome, a genius, and frail

Li Miaomiao, a textile mill worker, transmigrates to the Great Yue Kingdom and uses her own abilities to give her family a better life. But her stepmother has her kidnapped and sent to the home of a wealthy landlord to bring good luck to his sick son.

The landlord's third son, Liu Xingzhi, is blessed with peerless good looks, but is sickly. The doctor says he won't live to twenty, and he's already nineteen.

Li Miaomiao thinks, I'm not about to become a widow!

But her husband protects her, spoils her, and loves her. How could anyone resist?

So in the landlord's household, where feudal ideas are deeply entrenched, Li Miaomiao does nothing but care for her husband and fight against those ideas.

Fortune-telling, exorcisms, ritual sacrifice, being caged and drowned for adultery, and the belief that men are superior to women: all of it, out of here!

Everyone calls her a blasphemer, a rebel, and a woman of loose morals.

Liu Xingzhi holds an umbrella over his charming wife, smiling tenderly.

"Sorry, everyone. She's mine to spoil."

The landlord's family falls from prosperity into decline. While caring for the frail Liu Xingzhi, Li Miaomiao takes on the burden of supporting the family. With Liu Xingzhi's help, she steadily makes her way up, becoming the first female merchant in the textile industry.

She challenges feudal ideas, breaks women's shackles, and leads the whole country to prosperity by raising silkworms and producing silk.

Everyone praises her as loyal and righteous, beautiful and clever, and a shrewd businesswoman.

Liu Xingzhi wraps his arms around his pregnant wife, his eyes full of affection.

"They've got a point."

Later, her husband passes the imperial examinations and becomes the chief minister.

And she becomes the richest person in the country.

They have a son and a daughter, and live in peace and contentment.

Pre-release: "After Being Kidnapped by Bandits, I Took Over the World with a Breeding System"

Female lead (Shen Ling): Farming, animal husbandry, textiles, cooking, and the best logistics manager on the battlefield

Male lead (Gu Beice): A decisive killer who becomes emperor in a chaotic age and establishes an era of peace and prosperity

Winter, the thirteenth year of Jian'an. The prefect of Jiangzhou is getting married, and heavy snow has blocked the mountain passes.

On the wedding procession's way, a sedan bearer slips, and the bride and her sedan tumble into a valley.

That's when Shen Ling transmigrates. Before she can figure out what's going on, the bandits kidnap her.

The bandit chief, Gu Beice, is a madman who kills without blinking and threatens to cut off her hands and feet at the drop of a hat.

Luckily, she has a "Divine Breeding System." She leads a band of bandits in selling fertilizer, growing oyster mushrooms, building greenhouses, raising poultry and livestock...

She somehow turns bandits who couldn't survive even one winter into skilled farmers and livestock breeders, and turns a barren, gloomy, and terrifying mountaintop into a great granary.

Spring, the fourteenth year of Jian'an. The bandits now enjoy a comfortable life with meat at every meal, and even the chief has gradually come to trust her.

But this is a bandit den, after all. She can't stay forever.

Shen Ling thinks she should go find her gentle and handsome husband, the prefect.

Without warning, she runs off.

The bandit chief storms down the mountain to seize her, charging into the Jiangzhou prefectural office with bloodshot eyes.

Shen Ling sobs pitifully. "Husband, it's him! Arrest him!"

The prefect of Jiangzhou glares and slams his gavel. "You audacious woman! Stop sullying my good name! My wife is the Princess of Huarong Commandery!"

Shen Ling: "???" Her refined husband is a scumbag?!

The bandit chief laughs like a madman, holding a long sword dripping with blood. "Will Third Miss come with me now, or wait until I slaughter everyone in this office before coming along?"

Shen Ling: "..." Coming, coming, I'll come right away. You're the boss.

Autumn, the nineteenth year of Jian'an. The realm falls into chaos, and Gu Beice raises an army and unifies the country.

Spring, the first year of Yongchang. Shen Ling becomes empress, yet spends her days running out to the fields in the suburbs.

Gu Beice: "Empress, if you keep going out to plant rice, weed, grow mushrooms, and raise chickens and ducks, I'll make sure you can't get out of bed."

Shen Ling: "Your Majesty, please calm down. I know I was wrong." I'll do it again next time.
