[Exile + Whole-Family Transmigration + Ancient-to-Modern + Background Actors’ Rise + Two-World Operations + Feel-Good Power Fantasy + Time Gate]
The Yong’an Marquis household is confiscated, and the entire family is exiled to the northern frontier.
The old madam grits her teeth and shoulders the burden of the whole family, only to be carried through a battered old door to a place called “the modern world.”
Because she’s dressed in ancient clothing, she’s mistaken for a background actor and hired to film for a day. When work wraps, she’s paid with a boxed meal and two hundred yuan.
The whole family stares at the braised pork, eyes wide.
The eldest madam is the first to prick her finger. “Mother-in-law, I’m going too! One more person means one more boxed meal!”
They use their blood to activate the door, and the whole family joins in. From then on, the women of the marquis household begin their careers as modern-day background actors.
At first, they think they’re just scraping by with meals on set.
But when the old madam steps in front of the camera, the director cries out, “That presence! She was born to play an empress dowager!”
One look from the eldest madam, and the assistant director makes the call: “You’re perfect for the role of the wicked matriarch!”
The second madam lands a flying kick, and the fight choreographer drops to his knees. “Teach me, please!”
A single tear from the eldest daughter, and the director adds a scene on the spot: “She’s the perfect unattainable first love!”
They earn more and more, and their lives get better and better, while the Duke of Anguo’s household, which framed them, can’t sit still:
“How can this family be living better and better the farther they’re exiled?”
[They can cross over only once a day, and each trip can take the whole family: save money, free their relatives, and overturn the verdict!]
Have you abandoned the article? It's very beautiful.
