It’s Harder Than It Looks to Coast Through Life

Mu Zhaoning transmigrates as an abandoned five-year-old, eating grass at a nunnery. When she opens her eyes, she discovers an extraordinary ability: she can see an attribute profile above everyone’s head!

For the price of a pork-and-scallion bun, she promptly clings to the future villain’s leg. “Big brother, I can tell fortunes. Just feed me!”

Who knew that after saving him, she’d jump into Medicine King Valley and become the Valley’s most troublesome human test subject?

Her senior brother chases her around with acupuncture needles, she steals Senior Brother Xiao’s poisonous pills and eats them like candy, and even lazy Senior Brother Yun opens his eyes and grabs a knife for her!

“Mu Zhaoning! You little menace! Causing trouble again!”

“Shh, I’m helping everyone test the medicine!”

When the Mu family finally remembers their ill-omened daughter and comes to make her take someone else’s place in a marriage, they realize they’re in trouble:

The pitiful little girl of the past has become the Medicine King Valley’s favorite, with a lucky male lead, a best friend who’s an imperial chef, and a Grand Commandant’s legitimate grandson all showering her with mountains of gold.

A member of the Mu family arrives. “Eldest Miss, it’s time to come home and reunite with your family, ”

Mu Zhaoning gnaws on a goose leg. “Who are you? What, you know me? The consultation fee is ten thousand gold coins, double for old acquaintances!”

The Mu family knows she is destined to become empress, yet still has a second child, hoping to use the younger daughter as a substitute. But they fail to account for the prophecy: “Two phoenixes descend upon the world, one false and one true!”

They want the true phoenix to face the calamity and the false phoenix to take the throne?

Ha! Just watch as her senior brothers expose their scheme and help her defy fate. She’ll eat all the food people chase after her to serve, and somehow end up being doted on by the cold-faced commander Ye Yanqiu!

Acupuncture needle warnings? Poisonous snacks? In Mu Zhaoning’s life philosophy, there’s nothing a good meal can’t fix!

And if there is, then make it two meals!
