The First-Rank General's Concubine-Born Farmer

[A heartwarming farming story + HE] After transmigrating into the body of an official's concubine-born daughter, Shuniang set her place in life from the very start: keep a low profile and live quietly. Even so, trouble found her, and her legal mother abandoned her deep in the mountains. When Shuniang woke again, she discovered that a hunter had rescued her. She had felt safe around him from the moment she laid eyes on him. As they spent their days together, they fell in love and became a couple. Shuniang: I don't know how to do farm work, and I can't stand the sight of blood, but I'll do my best to adapt and get used to it, for your sake. Dalang: I know you're the daughter of an official, and that being with me is a hardship for you. But I'll make sure you have a good life. And so, in a little mountain village far from scheming and deceit, they built a happy life together: they put up a new house, raised chickens and ducks, brewed wine, and welcomed a pair of little dumplings. Then war erupted. A vassal prince rebelled, and uprisings broke out everywhere. There was no escaping the chaos of the age, so Dalang took up his blade to protect his wife and children. Dalang: I promised I'd give you a good life. Shuniang: Even if it's to the ends of the earth, through barren mountains and harsh waters, I'll follow you. The borderlands stretched beneath endless yellow sands. Shuniang gritted her teeth and endured, while Dalang fought bravely on the battlefield, slew the vassal prince, and was rewarded with a marquisate and a general's rank. They thought that once they'd reached the end of their troubles, better days would follow. But after they returned to the capital, the real trouble began. Shuniang's father: I didn't know back then that you'd been abandoned in the mountains by that wicked woman. Shuniang, can you still accept me as your father? Shuniang: If I'd stayed in the household back then, wouldn't you have sold me off to your superior? Her childhood sweetheart, now a lovely young widow, came looking for her family. Little Dumpling: Mother, is that the girl outside the one you called a white lotus? Dalang: Shuniang, you're the only one I'll ever love. The truth behind the old case finally came to light, and Shuniang's birth mother's identity turned out to be... Their hair grayed with age, and they stayed by each other's side until the end. Dalang: Shuniang, do you regret meeting me all those years ago? Shuniang: No. I'm glad I did.
