About this novel

This is the story of a graduate student majoring in Classical Chinese, who had been repeatedly trampled on the road to employment, returning to the mid-Ming Dynasty and entering the body of a young child in a mountain village. A dull father, a shrewish mother, and a whole lot of nightmare relatives—there was no shortage of drama in the small farmhouse courtyard.Show more

Fortunately, I have thousands of years of historical accumulation, the Four Books, the Five Classics, and the eight-legged essay; my major is a perfect fit. Who says it is difficult for a noble son to emerge from a humble family? The national strength was rising, and the empire was governed with a light touch; Laws were lax, and official discipline was sluggish; There were a few treacherous ministers and some unrest from the Wokou pirates; But overall, it could be said that this was fertile soil for the free growth of the scholar-officials. And so, the legend of a humble family's rise began here. I dedicate this work as a tribute to all the classics of the transmigration genre.
