Mianmian was born with one red eye and was branded a harbinger of doom, despised by everyone. In her previous life, her family tormented her to death while they were being exiled. Newly reborn, she plans to tell them about their impending exile.
But her family already hates her to the core. They hire a priest to declare her a bringer of disaster, then cruelly abandon the frail five-year-old on a cliff teeming with starving wolves, leaving her to die.
At the brink of death, the foolish third son of the Lu family, a clan of loyal officials for generations, finds her and takes her in.
The entire Lu family is plagued by misfortune. Their sons die in battle, are injured, or leave no heirs, and everyone struggles to get by. Yet in her previous life, they were the only kind people who ever gave her half a warm bun.
If her family doesn't want her, then she'll find herself a better family!
After that, Mianmian unexpectedly awakens the powers of a Ghost Emperor. Her personal ghost-domain space is stocked with mountains of food and supplies, and countless little ghosts obey her every command. She promptly empties the Su family home, the mansion of a corrupt official, and even the imperial palace!
The entire Su family is soon sent into exile, enduring hunger, cold, and hardship all along the way.
Meanwhile, Mianmian, whom they had cast aside like worthless trash, is cherished as the Lu family's darling. She eats well, lives comfortably, and no one dares bully her. What's more, the Lu family's fortunes turn around one by one: the blind brother regains his sight, the foolish brother recovers, and the paralyzed brother gets better... Their lives improve day by day, and they become the richest family in the place of exile!
The Su family tries to ingratiate themselves with her, but the Lu family gathers the little one into their arms. “Get lost! You were the ones who didn't want her! Now she's chosen us as her family!”
Later, the Lu family ascends the throne, and Mianmian becomes the most honored princess. Only then does the Su family realize she was never a harbinger of doom. She was a blessed little treasure all along!
