Coming soon: Everyday Life of a Farming Girl
Jiang Nan, a food blogger who had been pushed into lying flat by the entire internet, earned herself a transmigration package with one burst of hard work.
She opened her eyes to find herself in the middle of a family separation: an ancestral house ready to collapse, a gaunt young brother-in-law, her own frail body, and a gravely ill mother-in-law.
Jiang Nan: Some people may be alive, but they're not far from dead...
Everyone in the village lamented that the Shen family's eldest branch had been treated cruelly. Sent away like this, the whole family probably wouldn't survive the winter.
Jiang Nan refused to believe that. If there was a mountain, she could live off it; if there was water nearby, she could hardly starve.
She waded into the river to catch shrimp and fish, went into the mountains to gather mushrooms and dig for ginseng, cleared wasteland, and planted melons and beans.
Her food stall had everything: cold noodles, fried crab, braised pig's trotters, tofu and tofu pudding, fragrant flatbreads, hot pot, fried skewers, and spicy chicken in a bowl. Customers came in wave after wave, and her roadside stall soon became a fine dining shop.
The family's savings steadily grew. Their shabby house became a brick-and-tile home, and their rough clothes became fine silks.
Their roadside stall had become a fine dining shop, their shabby house a brick-and-tile home, and their rough clothes fine silks. Most important of all, their purses were getting fat!
Relatives who came begging for a handout and grandparents who expected free meals all showed up, and not one of them got away unscathed.
Business kept growing and expanding. The wealthy were willing to spend a fortune just for a table of custom-made home-style dishes.
After Shen Que's father died, Shen Que himself was driven out to work. He married in haste, hadn't even memorized his wife's face, and was sent away to work again.
When he finally returned home, everything had changed. After making a scene, he nervously went back to the ancestral house.
But the scene before him was nothing like what he had imagined.
The broken-down house had been renovated, his younger brother wore new clothes, and his mother was drinking nourishing medicine.
His wife even gave him money.
The family's restaurant had become famous far and wide. Customers from all over were curious about his wife, and their gazes were as hungry as wolves. Every day, he had to fend off eight hundred admirers and flirtatious rascals!
Everyone who frequented the restaurant knew that Jiang, the proprietress of the Delicious Eatery, had a foul-tempered, dark-faced husband.
Coming soon: Everyday Life of a Farming Girl
Gu Yuan, a worker ground down by the 996 work schedule, finally quit and returned to her hometown to enjoy a peaceful country life!
But she passed out from heatstroke while tending vegetables. When she woke up, she had transmigrated into a notorious lazy wife in an obscure ancient village!
She was also forcibly bound to a system called the "001 Well-Off System."
She hated working :)
The System told her that completing missions would earn her points, which she could exchange for the supplies she needed.
Gu Yuan: Don't even think about making me work!
But then she looked around: hardworking parents, a drafty house, an empty rice jar, a frail little sister, a simple-minded older brother, and her own terrible reputation.
Gu Yuan almost wished she could pass out again, but things didn't go as she hoped. She was still here.
With the thought that a wretched life was better than a good death, she began clearing the mission list.
[Reclaim wasteland to receive a set of farming tools!]
To get the reward, Gu Yuan decided to work the fields.
When she saw that the wasteland was covered in nothing but hard rocks, she tossed aside her hoe... and quit!
The next moment, she felt as if she'd been electrocuted, and passed out again!
The Gu family was scared half to death.
When Gu Yuan came around, she tried to toss the hoe again, and promptly passed out once more!
Gu Yuan finally behaved!
[Planting complete. Congratulations, player, on making spicy mixed vegetables. You have received a packet of Chinese cabbage seeds!]
[Fertilizing complete. You have received...]
She cleared the missions one by one. The dilapidated house gained a complete roof and walls, and even her thinnest little sister grew plump and rosy-cheeked.
Everyone in the village said, "Mrs. Gu has changed her ways. She even knows to reclaim land and farm for her family now!"
Gu Yuan looked at her hundred acres of good farmland, feeling incredibly pleased with herself. She was even thinking that maybe someday she could find herself a farming son-in-law who'd marry into her family.
Then the neighbor boy, who was always helping out, suddenly showed up at her house with their childhood betrothal agreement. His eyes were red as he stared at her. "Yuan Yuan, are you going to be a heartless man?"

What poor people fear most is getting sick, and so do I. I look down upon it and look down on it at all.
A very gentle and restrained article. Free for thanksgiving only
I paid to read part of it, but I don't know what it is about. Every chapter is the same. I can't stand it anymore, I gave up.
Even though this family is rich, they never thought about sending their children to study?
When it's finished, I'll be writing. I will definitely order all of them. I think it's hard to write quickly and I'm afraid you'll give up. It's very well written. You must finish writing it, come on.
Madam, please pay attention to your health and don't stay up late and get more rest. I also had chest pain before, which scared me so much that I went to bed immediately.
🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 My wife looks at my profile picture.
Speaking of stir-frying brown sugar, I once made sweet and sour pork ribs on a whim. I also stir-fried the sugar, but then the sugar became mushy and the ribs were so bitter that I cried to death.
How old is this brother? I didn't notice it before, but I felt that he could always help with cooking. I always thought he was six or seven years old. Now he has to cook alone and he must be ten years old. Isn't he the same age as the heroine, but he doesn't seem to be the same.
Corn wine? Corn can also be used to make fermented glutinous rice. I always thought that fermented fermented glutinous rice was the only sweet fermented glutinous rice. It seemed to be glutinous rice.
