Lucky Little Farm Girl: Rebirth Brings Prosperity to the Whole Family

Song Yanyan is a young girl from a poor farming family in a village at the foot of Mount Qi. After falling and remaining unconscious for three days, she awakens with the memories of a previous life, having lived through the tragic death of her entire family in a past dream. In that vision, her family was slaughtered by hidden guards after they took in a girl named Luo Jinyu, who was revealed to be the true daughter of a noble Princess. Luo Jinyu, having been switched at birth, used her time with the Song family to fabricate stories of abuse, leading to her family's execution upon her return to nobility. Determined to prevent this catastrophe, Song Yanyan resolves to protect her family from the disaster that Luo Jinyu represents.

Shortly after Song Yanyan wakes, her mother brings home the unconscious Luo Jinyu, who claims to have escaped human traffickers. Song Yanyan, unable to move initially, watches in horror as her mother shows compassion for the girl. Realizing the danger, Song Yanyan fabricates a story about a dream in which a white-bearded Daoist warned that Luo Jinyu has a fate too grand for their poor household to bear. When Luo Jinyu confirms her surname is Luo, Song Yanyan’s mother believes the prophecy and decides to send the girl away to avoid bringing ruin upon them. Luo Jinyu, disguised as a humble servant, is escorted to the county town by Song Yanyan’s eldest brother, where she is taken in by the wife of a county registrar, effectively removing her from the Song family’s immediate vicinity.

With Luo Jinyu gone, Song Yanyan turns her attention to preventing other tragedies foreseen in her dream. She discovers that her eldest sister-in-law, Qi Lian, is nearly two months pregnant, a pregnancy that in the previous timeline ended in miscarriage due to a cursed talisman. Song Yanyan ensures Qi Lian receives proper medical care and avoids the sorceress who would have sold the harmful talisman. Simultaneously, she intervenes in her second brother’s romantic entanglement with a girl named Cuihong, exposing the disrespect shown by the Zhai family and helping him realize the imbalance in the relationship. These actions stabilize the family’s immediate future and secure the well-being of her siblings.

Seeking to improve the family’s financial situation, Song Yanyan ventures into the mountains to gather firewood. There, she encounters Li Qiyi, a young man injured and unconscious, who is the son of a high-ranking official. Unlike Luo Jinyu, who would have saved him for romantic gain, Song Yanyan treats him pragmatically. She bandages his wound, provides food, and explicitly asks for silver in return for her help. Li Qiyi, impressed by her directness and honesty, gives her a significant amount of silver. Song Yanyan returns home with the wealth, which her mother uses to plan a small business venture for the spring, providing the family with a new source of income.

Later, Song Yanyan and her mother encounter Luo Jinyu in the county town market. Luo Jinyu, now living comfortably as the registrar’s goddaughter, attempts to reconnect with the Song family, using the dream narrative to enhance her own mystique. Song Yanyan plays along politely but internally hopes that Luo Jinyu remains firmly attached to her new, wealthy patrons. The encounter reinforces Song Yanyan’s resolve to keep Luo Jinyu at a distance. As the story progresses, Song Yanyan continues to navigate her new reality, using her foresight to secure her family’s safety and prosperity while avoiding the fate that befell them in her previous life.
