The Fake Heiress from a Rich Family, the True Phoenix from a Poor One

The Fake Heiress of a Powerful Family, the True Phoenix of a Humble Home

In her previous life, Lin Wanyi was adopted by an official's family and helped her adoptive father rise to the highest ministerial post. But her biological elder sister, Shen Qingyao, grew jealous and framed her, leading to her wrongful execution. Meanwhile, Shen Qingyao was adopted by a farming family, where her laziness and greed dragged the whole family down until she froze to death on the streets.

They were both reborn, returning to the time before they were adopted at the age of twelve.

Scheming Shen Qingyao snatched the chance to join the official's family, vowing to recreate the favor and glory Lin Wanyi had enjoyed in her previous life. By a twist of fate, Lin Wanyi instead joined the humble Lin family: two honest, down-to-earth parents and three brothers who doted on their little sister to an absurd degree. They cherished her like the apple of their eye.

Within the powerful family, Shen Qingyao schemed at every turn, battling legitimate and illegitimate relatives, courting the powerful, and vying for a place in the palace. But she took a wrong step at every turn, ultimately becoming a pawn discarded in the game of power.

In her humble home, Lin Wanyi used the memories of her previous life to pickle vegetables, open workshops, and build a business network. She led her family to prosperity through hard work, while her three brothers joined the army, went into business, and passed the imperial examinations, becoming her strongest support.

As the fake heiress loses herself in palace intrigue, the true phoenix is already stirring up the world with her wisdom. She is a business magnate richer than a nation, a living bodhisattva who improves people's lives, and a hero who turns the tide in times of crisis.

Each keeps herself pure, surrounded by a family that dotes on her. After returning from death, who will prove to be the true phoenix who controls her own destiny?
