transmigrated into a book, double rebirth, ancient times, farming, poor to rich
In her previous life, Li Qinghe married into the Xu family with pomp and splendor but was treated coldly and ignored by everyone in the household she married into. She eventually died of an illness to make way for her husband's white moonlight.
However, she woke up again, this time with prior knowledge of herself being just a cannon fodder in a sweet romance novel. In the original novel, Qinghe had saved the male protagonist's life and then asked him to marry her as repayment. She then made the lovers' lifetime a hell because of her jealousy. Now that she had returned to the past and been given a second chance at life, Li Qinghe decided to change her way of living. She resolved to stay away from the male and female protagonists. It was still important to save his life for the story to continue, but that kindness would be exchanged for silver, and she would leave instead.
But unexpectedly, the original male protagonist was not reconciled to this and rushed to become entangled with her ruthlessly. She had a violent temper and rolled up her sleeves, intending to hit him. Another man beside her saw this and felt very distressed. Hurriedly taking her hand and squeezing it gently, he said, "Be good. If you're not careful, your hand will hurt. You should stand aside and let me do such menial work."
...
In his last life, Zhou Chengkang had built and maintained a large tombstone in front of Li Qinghe's grave for his entire life after her death. He regretted not expressing the feelings in his heart to her many times. He then died, still carrying that regret.
When he opened his eyes again, he found that he was reborn and had returned to the time before she had gotten married to Xu Changjie. The beautiful lady was again alive and graceful, drawing at his heartstrings. He couldn't help but want to take her into his arms.

This time, he won't miss his chance again.
Hmm... its very peaceful with almost no drama. Although there are a lot of things happening with the male lead/female lead, their relatives, neighbors etc., but the MC & ML couple just live their lives happily and generally does not participate in it.
Our MC was reborn. In the first life, she married the male lead after she saved his life. But male lead has a TRUE LOVE so even if they are married, they did not consummate the marriage and MC was just treated like a maid by her husband's family all her life. In the end, when she got sick, she was intentionally given the wrong medicine by his husband and after she died, him and his true love finally got together.
Then there was ML, who was also reborn. He's been inlove with MC and after she died, he built a a house near MC's gravestone and guarded her for a lifetime.
After dying, MC found out that she was just a cannonfodder in the book that got in the way of the male lead and female lead.
This time, as repayment for saving the male lead's life, she didn't want to marry him but she wanted money. After that, the debts are cleared. MC uses that money to buy some land and then make a fish pond (first step of poor to rich!). In this life, ML actively approach MC instead of being in unrequited love. MC knows ML's feelings for her so she waits for him to propose. She also wants to be with ML cos she knows that ML's feelings for her is real. ML is the fourth in his family and he has to wait for all three brothers above him to marry before its his turn. Anyways, things happen and MC and ML eventually get married. a lot of things happen in the village, sometimes its related to their relatives (ML's brothers or their wives, or MC's stepmother, stepsiblings etc.) and MC and ML also gets caught up with it but they are quick to draw a line. Anyway, as long as their own family is living well.. For poor to rich, aside from the pond, they also contracted the mountain behind them to plant medicinal plants.

Although both MC and ML are reborn, they really did not take advantage much of their previous life knowledge. Speaking of which, MC is also an amnesiac transmigrator, but her impression of her previous life is very vague, just men and women are equal, the Chinese characters are not the same as ancient times etc. NO FOOD PORN or interesting business ideas, they just stayed in their village and lived a good life.
Overall, like I said, its very peaceful. MC and ML are resolute to be happy in this life. In fact, many things happen in their village/relatives, and I really like that both MC and ML don't let it affect them. This is why its no drama, cos the drama isn't really happening to MC and ML, they are more like...audiences watching the show or just listening to gossip. So if you want a sweet couple but also complicated family relationships then you might like this. Ending was a bit abrupt. lol. And there are no Extras.
