Blue Bull

Pei Qin, upon transmigration, was instantaneously drenched in a basin of misery.
The Scholar father was murdered on his way to the exams, and eldest uncle Jian Shen had two households.
There was a son from the second wife, but neither grandparents nor villagers liked him, and he was also a thorn in the side of eldest aunt.
Valuing sons over daughters, they wanted to sell her to buy land.
Malnourished and poorly clad, her mother and siblings toiled like beasts of burden.
Before she could strive for a better life, that already deceased Scholar father came back to life.
He'd married a rich man's daughter? Sired two sons?
Life was so hard, yet it drove his wife to her death.
Pei Qin looked at her emaciated younger siblings, her hands trembling: To the mountains!!
————————
Lived in caves, built a hut, ate wild vegetables, gathered wild fruits.
In poverty-stricken days, Pei Qin led her siblings to quietly amass wealth and silently prosper.
Just as they were about to thrive, another wave of misfortune was thrown their way!
Pei Qin with hands on hips: If you want to play the scoundrel, I'll make sure you're reduced to nothing!

The Eldest Daughter of a Rural Family

Pei Qin glanced at the roof... The roof was too high, and she coughed softly, "This one and this batch of bullets can go to the Emperor!"


"I see you seem reluctant to part with them!" Emperor Chu Wen's eyes flickered with satisfaction.


"Not at all! Both can be given to the Emperor!" Pei Qin gritted her teeth.


Emperor Chu Wen smiled and graciously said, "With your modest skills, you should keep one for self-defense!"


"Thank you, Emperor! Thank you, Emperor!" Pei Qin eagerly took one and secretly pocketed the bullets as well. Damn it! Having to be grateful for keeping her own things!


"You may leave. Follow me to the early court tomorrow!" Emperor Chu Wen took the handgun and let her off.


Before she reached the door, Emperor Chu Wen added, "Tonight, think carefully about the Crown Prince's candidates, as I will ask you at the early court tomorrow!"


Pei Qin tripped over the threshold and fell flat on her face in a dog-eating-dirt fashion.
