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 Yuan also felt somewhat uncomfortable, having long decided on the betrothal but delaying it time and again. It was clear that they were waiting for Wendong to pass the imperial examination and gain official recognition, which would indeed be more impressive. However, this deliberate and expectant behavior and attitude made her uncomfortable.


Second Madam Zheng beat around the bush asking about Pei Qin's health, speaking sweet nothings to try to get close.


Old Lady Zheng also put on the demeanor of an elder caring for the younger.


Seeing that they were not here to discuss the betrothal matter, Pei Qin had no interest in keeping company with the Zheng family members any longer, "Old Lady Zheng doesn't come by often, so it's best if Ms. Xie and Young Master Xie keep her company and have a good chat! I've just arrived, and nothing at home has been arranged properly yet, so I must be excused!"
