Dream of the Red Chamber: The Whole Household Hears My Thoughts and Goes Mad

Dream of the Red Chamber fan fiction + eavesdropping on gossip + hearing inner thoughts + laugh-out-loud comedy + an entire cast gone bonkers Hua Qianshuang, a top history student at Imperial University, drops dead after staying up all night reading Dream of the Red Chamber fan fiction. She wakes up as Hua Xiangrong, a lowly maid in the Jia household. She plans to lie flat for the rest of her life, but then she gets bound to a chatty gossip System that spills juicy secrets every day: who hid the erotic pictures in a secret compartment in Jia Zheng’s study, where Madam Wang stashes her private money, and even which imperial consort smashed the emperor’s favorite blue-and-white porcelain the night before... “Host, listen to this! Jia Baoyu sleepwalked to the kitchen yesterday to sneak a bite, then mistook Second Madam’s bird’s nest soup for vermicelli and slurped it up!” “What? Xiren and Mingyan behind the rockery...” Hua Xiangrong sweeps floors and dusts on the outside, while chatting up a storm with the System in her head. She has no idea that everyone in the Jia household can hear her and the System’s snarky comments! On the first day, Grandmother Jia drops three teacups. On the second day, Madam Wang tears up two Buddhist scriptures. On the third day, Jia Zheng sends all his retainers away, shuts himself in his study, and punches the wall. Then one day, the System says in a low voice, “Host, the Jia household will be confiscated in three years. The accounts are already short by eight hundred thousand taels...” Jia Zheng, who is secretly listening, sprays a mouthful of blood across a memorial, and the whole household erupts! From then on, the Dream of the Red Chamber takes a wild new turn: Wang Xifeng starts digging up the garden with a crew to find “the treasure trove the System mentioned.” Jia Baoyu is forced to study A Guide to Avoiding Sleepwalking and Sneaking Snacks. Lin Daiyu records the “System’s Top 10 Revelations of the Day” while coughing up blood... Meanwhile, Hua Xiangrong is still wondering why everyone in the household has been acting so strangely lately. And who keeps putting one or two silver coins under her pillow every day?!
