Modern office worker Lin Xiaoman worked overtime until midnight, only to wake up as 5-year-old A Ruan in an ancient mountain village. The village was suffering from a century-long drought—fields were cracked wide enough to fit a fist, grain merchants jacked up rice prices to sky-high levels, and villagers either waited for death by their barren fields or packed their tattered bags to flee. In despair, an "Ancient Rental House System" popped up in her mind: build a system-approved "shared rental house" for passers-by, and she could exchange it for food, well water, or even drought-resistant seeds! But the villagers thought she was a "possessed kid"—her father raised a peach branch to "exorcise evil spirits" from her, and even her favorite grandma偷偷 wiped away tears. Determined, A Ruan used half a bag of millet from the system to get the hunter uncle's help in building houses, then helped Aunt Wang build a rain shelter to get the village's first bucket of life-saving water. Just as the villagers started calling her a "little prodigy" for getting food through "rental houses," a landlord from the neighboring village came with his men to steal the "houses that can produce grain." Clutching the system interface, can A Ruan protect the village's last glimmer of hope?
