Good Farming and Self-Support in the 1970s

Ye Xin was living her life as a diligent office worker when, after a bike accident, she found herself transported to a time where food was scarce and had also gained a skinny fiancé. The original owner of her body was a young, weak, and ill-natured “educated youth” sent to the countryside. She was not well-liked and was currently in a dispute with her fiancé over breaking off their engagement… Ye Xin felt troubled, thinking, “What a mess!” But she couldn’t return to her old world, so she had no choice but to adapt and survive. First of all, she decided to stop arguing—her fiancé was handsome, hardworking, and quite capable. Secondly, she would use her golden finger (a mysterious power) to grow crops, earn food, and take good care of herself, while also helping her fiancé out. She was sixteen, he was seventeen, and they would eat their fill, grow taller, and their future would be full of possibilities. Farm work in the countryside was tough. During the day, she was busy, and at night, the space she had access to was even busier. There was no way she could finish all the farming work. But the harvests were always rewarding: rice, vegetables, fruits, meat, eggs—more than they could ever eat. The only thing she wasn’t happy about was that while she had only grown a few centimeters, her fiancé kept growing taller and more handsome… He was almost at the level of a male model! And the way he looked at her became less and less restrained. “We’ve grown up, shouldn’t we get married now?” “I think… I can still grow a bit more…” The once quiet, weak young man was now tall and strong, still cold in public, but when alone, he would bend down and gently coax his fiancé.
