Jiang Cha was surrounded and eaten by zombies in the apocalypse. When she wakes up again, she has become the village simpleton in Jiang Family Village.
She goes from a simpleton who can do nothing to an all-around expert, capable of hunting, making medicine, brewing wine, forging weapons... There’s nothing she can’t do.
The man she casually fishes out of the lake turns out to be the imperial commissioner, the young master of the Ning’an Marquis Household, and a close friend of the emperor. Not only is he devastatingly handsome, he’s also gifted in both letters and arms. He cherishes her like a precious treasure, afraid she’ll fall if he holds her too tightly, or melt if he keeps her in his mouth.
Her father is a gambler, her mother plays favorites, her younger sister is vicious, and her younger brother is selfish. The whole family wants to take advantage of her.
Her father gambles? One more bet and she’ll wring his neck. “Daddy’s so scared!” He hurries off to hunt obediently.
Her mother plays favorites? Then Jiang Cha will show her what it means to see something but never get to have it. She won’t let her take advantage of her, either!
Her sister is vicious and has her eye on her handsome brother-in-law? And she badmouths Jiang Cha in front of him?
Ha! Her brother-in-law, Lu Yuzhang, kicks her flying!
Her brother is selfish? Oh, no big deal. Boys should have to suffer a little. The more hardship they endure, the greater their achievements.
The child she rescued from human traffickers turns out to be the emperor’s own son?
The old lady she met at the clinic is the empress dowager?
From then on, Jiang Cha rises to the top. The wife of the Ning’an Marquis Household looks down on her? Well, Jiang Cha looks down on that household too.
Lu Yuzhang: “How about I marry into your family?”
Jiang Cha: “I’ll think about it.”
