Mu Xiaochun was lured away by a soul-snatcher and taken to the underworld. Black and White Impermanence said it was an accident, but her body had already been cremated.
Black and White Impermanence: We'll find you somewhere new. Consider it compensation.
Mu Xiaochun: Come on, turn my mic back on. Let's see if I don't curse you both out.
Then she was shoved into the body of a fourteen-year-old girl named Muchun in ancient times.
Her father was gone, her mother was gone, and all they'd left the five sisters was a dilapidated house with a leaky roof. Her four younger sisters were lined up, starving and crying.
Mu Xiaochun stood up and stretched her bony new body.
"Fine." "I'm supposed to raise four kids, right?"
"I can work three jobs at most to support myself. Four kids? That'll be even easier!"
The neighbors bullied the orphaned girls? She let rip at them until they had no answer.
A shrew came to pick a fight, calling her fatherless and motherless? Mu Xiaochun verbally tore into her until she questioned her whole life.
A local bully tried to block her way? She was even more wicked than him...
Outsiders said she had two sides.
One was forged from iron, impervious to blades and spears. Whoever touched it would be the one to shatter.
The other was made of cotton, soft and warm, and shown only to those who treated her and her sisters well.
