Dream of the Red Chamber: The Jia Family Is Wiped Out, and the Real Heiress Starts Her Own Family Tree

[Dream of the Red Chamber + Strong Female Lead + Secret Identity + Fake Heiress and Real Heiress + Satisfying Face-Slapping]

Yun Yi was the legitimate eldest daughter of Jia Zheng, the second master of the Rongguo Mansion, and Jia Zhu’s twin sister.

But just after she was born, a bald, lame monk declared that she was “born under an ill star and destined to bring misfortune to her family.”

The Jia family believed him and sent her away to the countryside in Yangzhou, abandoning her there. For over ten years, no one gave her a second thought.

Meanwhile, they raised Tanchun, the daughter of a concubine, as a pampered darling, enrolling her in the family register and presenting her at the ancestral hall, treating her just like a legitimate daughter.

What they didn’t know was that in those ten years, Yun Yi had become “Boss Yun,” the richest merchant in Jiangnan Circuit, with shops spread across the empire.

Now, at Lin Ruhai’s request, Yun Yi has quietly returned to the mansion to protect Lin Daiyu.

The Jia family servants laugh at her, calling her a country bumpkin;

Tanchun sneers that she has no right to enter the ancestral hall;

Madam Wang blames her for Jia Zhu’s death;

And the pedantic Jia Zheng accuses her of sullying the reputation of a duke’s mansion...

Yun Yi: What’s so special about the Jia family ancestral hall? Who cares!

She turns around, seizes the treacherous servants’ property, delivers face-slapping to the masters one after another, and brutally tears away Madam Wang’s hypocritical mask.

The Jia family wants to use Daiyu’s property to build the Grand View Garden?!

Yun Yi: Dream on!

The Jia family has embezzled Daiyu’s dowry?!

Yun Yi: They’re asking for death!

She simply adds another zero to Daiyu’s dowry.

By the time the Jia family falls into ruin, Tanchun is married off to a distant land, Wang Xifeng lies dying, Madam Wang has gone mad, and Jia Zheng is beheaded, the whole household is in turmoil and weeping as they beg for help...

Yun Yi calmly produces the deeds to a thousand acres of fertile land at Yun Manor, her title of Lady Who Protects the Nation bestowed by imperial decree, and one astonishing identity after another. She starts her own family register and draws a clear line between herself and the Jia family.

“You cast me aside like a worn-out shoe back then. Now I’ll make your whole family kneel and beg me to acknowledge my roots!”
