Lucky Treasure of the 1970s: Great-Grandpa Takes Me Cultivating Immortals

Three-and-a-half-year-old Ruan Tangtang opens her eyes to find she has become a doomed side character in a period novel. The original owner was sold as a child bride to a fool and died at five. She is about to run away when she realizes this family is not what it seems: her good-for-nothing father flies through the night on a sword, her grandmother smashes a stone mill with one palm, and her three older brothers are respectively destined to become the capital's future richest man, a medical authority, and a military big shot. Most outrageous of all, in an era when people favor sons even when there's barely enough food to eat, her grandmother tells everyone she meets, "In our family, the girls are the most precious!" Ruan Tangtang waves her little hand, and wild boars run into trees while fat fish leap ashore. The whole village calls her a lucky star. Watching a line of young masters from the capital's grand estates bring her gifts, Ruan Dameng sharpens his knife and declares, "Anyone who dares set their sights on my daughter, I'll send their whole family soaring to immortality!"
