She stayed up late reading The Story of Minglan. When she woke, she had become Sheng Molan.
Made to kneel in the ancestral hall, she heard her mother plead through tears, while the whole household waited to laugh at her, a daughter born to a concubine.
No one knew that the woman whose face she now wore would one day meet Liang Han in secret and drag her mother into a deadly trap.
She remembered every pitfall in the original story, but did not dare step into a single one.
This time, she first helped Lin Qinshuang, who was weeping her heart out.
"Mother, don't beg. We'll make our own way."
A little shop and a pot of candied hawthorns became the mother and daughter's way out.
Her legitimate mother watched for her to slip up, while Rulan waited to laugh at her.
But she was determined to live in the Sheng household as no one in the original story had dared to write.
It's very beautiful and has a strong sense of immersion!
