The Daily Life of a Commoner Daughter Fleeing Famine

Du Yuetang, a top student of modern agriculture, transmigrates into a book as the same-named disposable concubine-born daughter in a scheming romance novel.

In two days, rebel forces will breach the city. Her biological father abandons her as if she were worthless, taking along only her and her twenty-fourth elder sister because of their pretty faces. Within six months, her sister will be offered up as a plaything. Three years later, Du Yuetang will take a fatal blow meant for her legitimate elder sister, the novel's heroine, and may even lose her chastity.

Du Yuetang wants to live. She immediately gathers their money and flees with her five-year-old younger brother.

The moment she climbs over a wall, she lands on a little beggar.

Qin Xiao was kidnapped at the age of three and taken to Wuyuntai, where the imperial family trained its death soldiers. When the realm fell into chaos, he joined the rebel army, relying on his extraordinary martial arts. Though young, he distinguished himself with his courage and loyalty, earning countless merits.

He even fought his way through enemy lines seven times and rescued the commander’s family.

But the young lord fell in love with a woman and was willing to give up five provinces and surrender his military command for her sake.

As the commander’s trusted aide, Qin Xiao was naturally viewed with suspicion. He was set up and died horribly in a gorge.

Reborn, the first thing he does is find the wicked beauty who threw the realm into chaos and kill her!

But just as he reaches the wall of the magistrate of Qingshi County’s home, someone tumbles off it and knocks him unconscious.

1. No golden finger. This is a slow-paced, slice-of-life story, not a power fantasy, with farming, imperial examinations, and a childhood-sweetheart romance that unfolds at a gentle pace.

2. The male lead died at just thirteen in his previous life.

New novel: Chen Baozhu's Farming Life

Chen Baozhu opens her eyes and finds she has transmigrated into a book, becoming a daughter of the Chen family's fourth branch in Shancun Village.

Her family owns a large tiled-roof house and used to be the richest in the village.

But her father was injured on the battlefield, leaving him unable to have more children. With only one daughter, he sold the house to buy her a little child husband.

The family moved back into a shack.

Being so poor they have nothing but bare walls is not even the worst of it.

The heroine is her third cousin. She saves a marquis in distress, and he takes her as a concubine, doting on her in every way. His wife grows jealous and takes out her anger on the Chen family, wiping them out. Even the little child husband Chen Baozhu just bought does not escape.

The male lead is about to appear, and Chen Baozhu does not want to die. In a panic, she takes her little child husband to lie in wait, hoping to get to the male lead first and kill him to save her family.

The bad news: she is too late.

The good news: the male lead is rescued by a widowed woman from the same village.
