Su Jinxiu, a modern finance whiz, transmigrates into the stepmother of a sickly hunter in ancient times. She also inherits two “villainous” stepsons, one dark and calculating, the other fierce but adorable. The family is dirt poor, buried in debt, and their original owner has just sold half of the boys to buy food!
Su Jinxiu: “...Is this a hell-mode start?”
She rolls up her sleeves, selling soap, opening an embroidery shop, setting up a bank, and building a merchant caravan. She rises from rags to become a royal merchant, amasses a fortune, and raises her stepsons to become a top scholar and a general. She herself becomes the foremost female merchant in the empire, so influential that even the emperor calls her “Boss Su.”
But why does her hunter husband, who was supposedly “destined to die young,” look more and more like the missing Prince Regent of the capital?
