Starting with a Basket of Wild Duck Eggs

Starting with a Basket of Wild Duck Eggs Plot:

Lin Xiaoman, a 996 office worker, quits her job to inherit her grandmother's failing duck farm after the elderly woman is hospitalized. On her first day, she finds a basket of wild duck eggs by the river, seeing them as her "start-up capital" to save the farm. But Gu Heng, the new village forest ranger in camouflage, blocks her door—claiming the eggs belong to the nationally protected spot-billed ducks and demanding their return. Xiaoman bursts into tears: her grandma's surgery fee depends on these eggs! Gu Heng softens and offers a deal: he'll help her revive the duck farm if she helps incubate the eggs and return them to the duck mother. From constant bickering to repairing the duck shed together, chasing away weasels that steal ducks, and even raising money for grandma's surgery, their relationship warms. But just as the wild eggs are about to hatch, the duck farm is suddenly targeted by developers for demolition…
