The young lady is always lacking ambition.
"The so-called Taisu Pulse is the art of physiognomy; it can discern status, predict fortune and misfortune, and calculate calamity and blessing. Good sir, would you dare to let me feel your pulse? A single pulse is worth ten thousand gold!" See? Making money is so easy. Is it a good way to make a living? Bah! A person lives two lives. Qin Liuxi's ideal has always been to just drift along. After all, there are always people in this world willing to be salted fish, seeking no progress. And if such useless tasks are needed, let her do them! But when a whole family appeared before her in a state of misery and sorrow, Qin Liuxi's days of being a salted fish ceased to exist. Facing the precarious and crumbling Qin family, and with her maid holding an empty money box begging for business, Qin Liuxi had no choice but to shoulder the heavy responsibility of the eldest young lady: managing the household, supporting her elders, and aggressively raising the children! Qin Liuxi: I clearly had a "salted fish" script; who swapped it for this? The cousin, who was being scolded by the eldest young lady to the point of questioning her existence: "I feel like Big Sister looks at us like we're a nuisance!" The third Young Master Qin, who was beaten by the eldest young lady to learn a lesson: "Be bolder! Remove the 'I feel like'!" The fifth Young Master Qin, who was nagged by the eldest young lady into social withdrawal: "Big Sister is mine, biologically mine! No one else can take her!" Later, someone asked Qin Liuxi: if you could live your life all over again, what would your dream be? Qin Liuxi fell silent for a long time: "To seek no progress and just survive for a hundred years!"
Ninth Lady is a rebellious soul, and a wild one at that.
Lang Jiuchuan, the ninth young lady of the Marquis of Kaiping's estate, has returned to the capital to attend a funeral after more than a decade of recuperation away from home. However, upon their reunion, she finds her biological mother dislikes her, her family is distant, and they all despise her as a troublemaking menace. Upon her first entry into the capital's elite circles, the nobility mock her for being raised in the countryside, claiming she looks short-lived and acts crudely—like wild grass in the mountains that could never grace a grand stage. Lang Jiuchuan, however, thinks wild grass is perfect: full of vitality and growing rapidly with the wind. It suits her perfectly! Just as everyone is secretly placing bets on when this "mediocre, short-lived ghost" will meet her end, they forget that she is actually a menace—the kind that can plague a lineage for a thousand years. That's right. She may look delicate, soft, and easy to bully, but go ahead—try touching her. Do you lament that I have no one to protect me? What a joke. I can grow my own wings; why would I need a ladder to reach the clouds? Severing the sun by day and the moon by night, her divine powers are known throughout the world. While crowds offer heavy sums to beg for her services, Lang Jiuchuan only wants to accumulate merit to reshape her body, extend her life, and find her soul—and perhaps settle a few scores along the way. So what if it's a hellish start? I will eventually fight my way out! Fan Group: 544256853
