One Little Tug, and the Pure-Hearted, Rugged Man Turns Bright Red

[Dual rebirth for heroine and supporting character + military marriage + marriage first, love later + joining the army + no golden finger]

Being a woman with a doctorate is hard. Being a woman with a doctorate in agriculture, forestry, and animal husbandry is even harder.

Near graduation, the hybrid chickens she had painstakingly bred for her thesis are snatched by a scavenger and cooked.

Xu Nian can’t take it and dies of anger in the lab.

When she opens her eyes again, she has transmigrated into a book, a period novel about a rugged man, as the vicious supporting character Xu Nian, who shares her name.

The original Xu Nian married the male lead, Zhou Meng, then mistreated her father-in-law and three orphaned children of fallen soldiers. She was cruel to the Zhou family, while constantly sending money to her own family and best friend. In the end, she died miserably in a thatched hut.

Reborn, Xu Nian thinks: “I like having such a handsome military officer for a husband. I’ll cherish these three well-behaved kids. I don’t need a friend this manipulative, and my terrible family can stay out of my way.”

This village doesn’t know how to raise livestock? That’s right up my alley.

The place where I’m stationed with the troops is in the middle of nowhere? No problem. I can clear land and grow crops.

My cold military officer husband is too blunt? Doesn’t matter. I love flirting with pure-hearted men who say one thing and mean another.

In the future, Xu Nian, the livestock queen who owns hundreds of farms, says the person she’s most grateful to is the hybrid chicken that got cooked.
