I Transmigrated Into a Book in the 1980S and Made It Big in the Army Through Farming

Reborn as a cannon-fodder character, Jiang Lanxi is about to be sold off by her stepmother for a bride price. Refusing to accept her fate, Jiang Lanxi writes a letter begging for sympathy and marries into the harshest military camp in the barren mountains. A stern-faced battalion commander, an earthen house, and drought-cracked fields. Wang Caiying blocks her way by the well and sneers, “Not everyone can grow anything in this soil.” Jiang Lanxi doesn’t argue or make a fuss. She slings a hoe over her shoulder and gets to work turning the soil. She digs irrigation channels, plants potatoes, and grafts fruit trees. Three years later, her name is on the county’s list of top seed varieties, and the commander himself pins a red silk flower on her. But then she turns around and gets into an agricultural university. Everyone is stunned. “Has she lost her mind?” She hasn’t. She’s simply bringing back seeds that can survive in dry land and delivering them to the villagers at the foot of the mountain, one household at a time. Years later. Jiang Lanxi is organizing labels for superior seed varieties at the research base. Li Anzhi walks in, his voice hoarse. “Jiang Lanxi.” She doesn’t look up. “Hmm?” “You helped everyone and planted the whole mountain.” He steps closer, lowering his voice. “So when are you going to… help me too?”
