Transmigration + reborn + farming + infrastructure + everyday life
【Fictional setting; readers who insist on historical accuracy, stay away. Focuses on everyday life, with no awful relatives, no golden finger, and a female lead who grows over time.】
In her previous life, Shen Qingtang, a fake heiress raised by a marquis’s family, died a gruesome death after their real daughter returned. In this life, she’ll do whatever it takes to get away from those wretched people and stay alive.
Shen Qingtang leaves the capital and retreats to a remote mountain village, where she keeps her head down and lays low.
She only wants to live a quiet life of her own, but the villagers are so useless in a fight that she has no choice but to step in herself.
Before long, meat that they could afford only at New Year is on the table every meal. Houses that used to leak whenever it rained are now solid brick-and-tile homes, and the once-dilapidated village has been completely transformed.
The villagers want to add her to the clan genealogy and erect a monument to her good deeds. Shen Qingtang says, “No, no, no. What matters is that everyone is doing well.”
She wants to shut out the world and sing about finally turning her life around, but someone please tell her: if that man is supposed to be too weak to lift a chicken, why can he knock out a burly fellow with one punch, then look at her with a chilling smile and ask, “Touched?”
Shen Qingtang: I’m not touched. Not one bit.
