The Once-Powerful Duke’s Household Has Fallen!... more>>

The only remaining young master, Shen Xuan, was taken back to Yunshui Village by his wet nurse. He accidentally fell into the water and became a half-witted little fool!

Without the Duke's Mansion as his backing, Shen Xuan became a burden living under someone else's roof. He was tormented by the wet nurse's Wang family, his skin rough and dark, living worse than a beggar!

People in the village all said that a ger like Shen Xuan wasn’t even good enough for the old bachelors in the village!

Unexpectedly, in his eighteenth year, people from the Xue family of the Marquisate, who hadn't been heard from in many years, suddenly arrived.

They presented a marriage contract, declaring that Shen Xuan had been betrothed to Xue family's eldest son, Xue Fenglin, in his childhood, and they were here to take him back for the wedding!

***

Xue Fenglin, the elegant and distinguished young master, was actually being forced to marry a foolish ger!

Countless noble daughters and gers in the capital had their hearts broken!

Everyone knew that the current Marquiss’ wife was not Xue Fenglin’s biological mother and had been at odds with him for years.

Clearly, she had dug up this marriage agreement with a “foolish ger” just to humiliate him!

Facing this arranged marriage set by his birth mother when she was alive, a glint flashed in Xue Fenglin's eyes, but no emotion could be seen on his face.

He made time to go to the separate courtyard, quietly circling to the back of Shen Xuan's room. He was just about to poke a hole in the window paper to secretly peek at this little ger-

Creak—

The window opened from inside. Shen Xuan, clutching a small bundle, was halfway out the window when he bump into Xue Fenglin, terror written all over his face!

Xue Fenglin: ...

Shen Xuan, who was about to sneak away: ...

***

After falling into the water, Shen Xuan’s soul had transmigrated to the modern world, where he was raised with love and care by wealthy, prestigious parents and even graduated from a top university.

When Shen Xuan woke up, he found himself transmigrated back again, and was about to be used as a tool for a family power struggle! And marry the young master of the Xue family!

Shen Xuan: Being single is great. Actually, Young Master, you don't necessarily have to marry me...

Xue Fenglin: The marriage contract is proof, it's a match made by our parents and the matchmaker. You are my fiancé!​ <<less

Lin Xiaohan transmigrated into the body of a ger whose parents had both passed away. Trapped by scheming relatives, he was married off to a poor countryside scholar, Lu Qiucheng.... more>>

Upon seeing Scholar Lu’s home, he finally understood what it meant to have bare walls and an empty house! No wonder the original host had thrown himself into a well—how was he supposed to survive like this?

Fortunately, although Scholar Lu’s family was poor, he was a man who cared for others. He slaughtered the last old hen in the house to nourish Lin Xiaohan.

"Eat up, don’t worry. Your health is the most important. I will study hard and make a name for myself. I’ll make sure you have a good life in the future!"

Another day, Lu Qiucheng pawned his family’s ancestral jade pendant for two taels of silver to buy Lin Xiaohan a new quilt.

Lin Xiaohan couldn’t sit still any longer—if Lu Qiucheng spent all their money, wouldn’t they both starve to death?

A person’s life becomes much easier with money! The key to financial stability had to be in his own hands!

Later, Lin Xiaohan made money, bought chickens and farmland, and built a better life…

Then, he returned to his old profession—writing storybooks.

Many years later, Scholar Lu became Official Lu. Yet, everyone knew that the one who truly ruled the Lu household was still that ger surnamed Lin… <<less
