Xu Qinghe spent five years working herself to exhaustion. Just when she had finally managed to save a modest amount of money, she began having a strange dream.
.
In the dream, she transmigrated to ancient times and became an orphaned village girl with no parents and no one to rely on.
.
Unable to adapt to life in the past, she struggled for two difficult years before eventually freezing to death on a snowy winter night.
.
When she woke up, she discovered that she had gained a mysterious spatial dimension.
.
After much consideration, Xu Qinghe decided to spend all of her savings on modern supplies and store them inside the space.
.
At first, she did it simply as a precaution—just in case.
.
She never expected that she would actually transmigrate.
.
Only after experiencing it firsthand did Xu Qinghe realize how difficult life was for ordinary people in ancient times.
.
They rarely had enough to eat or warm clothes to wear. They labored under the scorching sun in summer and survived the bitter winters wrapped in garments lined with paper. Half of their yearly income disappeared into taxes.
.
And beyond that, there were forced labor conscriptions, refugees, bandits, mountain outlaws, wild animals, epidemics, and countless other natural and man-made disasters.
.
Crushed under the weight of such hardships, ordinary people fought merely to survive.
.
Among them, Xu Qinghe was utterly unremarkable.
.
Yet no one knew that beneath her thin paper garments, she wore soft modern cotton clothing.
.
Nor did they know that hidden behind her coarse grains and simple meals were all kinds of meat and delicacies.
.
Guarding her stockpile of modern supplies, Xu Qinghe lives a comfortable and contented life.
.
Alone and free of attachments, she seeks neither wealth nor status.
.
All she wishes for in this new life is peace and safety.
.
Note: This is not a wish-fulfillment power fantasy. The story focuses on the heroine’s ordinary life—farming, observing village gossip, and quietly enjoying the simple pleasures of everyday living.
