Beneath the beautiful rural scenery and fantastical adventure plot lies the creative team's modern attempt at a Chinese pastoral idyll—a longing and reflection on an innocent, carefree childhood.
The rural countryside in Wheat's world is no longer a wartime utopia à la Hayao Miyazaki, but rather a 'Stardew Valley' for contemporary urbanites—adults and children alike—where, under the weight of daily life, they can be themselves, catch their breath, freely explore, and discover the magical glimmers hidden in ordinary living.

Wheat's Field 4: Master Frog Monk, the Panacea (Making choices) — A strange frog monk claims he can cure Wheat's toothache, but the price is turning into a frog?

Six-year-old Wheat is a bold and curious girl. Her father is an agronomy Ph.D., and the family has moved into an old house in the countryside to cultivate a sweeter variety of bitter melon. At first, Wheat doesn't quite adapt to country life, but her courage and curiosity soon lead her to a new friend—the pedestal stone of the old house, which can actually talk! It is "Little Stone Pier," a longtime resident of the village. Under Little Stone Pier's guidance, Wheat begins her adventures in the countryside.
Each volume introduces a mysterious "new friend," corresponding to a theme of growing up. Follow the brave and curious girl Wheat as she embarks on wonderful adventures in the beautiful rural fields!
