    1. The female protagonist is an interstellar traveler, and the Lin family ancestors were also interstellar travelers who traveled through a wormhole to this ancient era. The female protagonist is exceptionally fertile. The Lin family has had only one son for seven generations, and by the time of Lin Ruhai, he was over thirty and had no children. This caused the old lady of the Lin family immense worry. Previously, she respected her son's wishes; he refused to take concubines and only doted on his legal wife, so she didn't interfere in his marital affairs. She thought her son was a sensible man and would never allow the Lin family line to die out. But? A problem arose: she fell seriously ill and dreamt of her deceased husband. Her husband said that the Lin family line would end with Lin Hai, and if she didn't want the Lin family to die out, she should find a way to make Lin Hai divorce his wife and remarry. 2. In Chapter 155, the female protagonist will later become the legal wife, and her three sons will all become legitimate sons, becoming Daiyu's brothers.

    1. Transmigrating into the body of Lin Daixi, the eldest daughter of Lin Ruhai, the Salt Commissioner of the Ming Dynasty, she was raised by Jia Min, the legal wife, as her own daughter from a young age, and even raised her younger sister, Lin Daiyu. Knowing the fate of the Dream of the Red Chamber, she endured fourteen years of hardship trying to change the plot, but her personal system and space were sealed by the Heavenly Dao. She could only barely manage to improve the health of Jia Min and her daughter, but ultimately could not stop Jia Min's death. At the funeral, she broke down and questioned the heavens, when her fourteen-year-old cheat ability suddenly reached its maximum level and was unlocked! Her space came with a divine spring and a weak water from the underworld, granting her the power of life and death at will; the system allowed her to exchange everything, and all tasks were voluntary, with no coercive penalties. Starting at her peak, she wielded a god-level cheat and vowed to protect the Lin family and rewrite Daiyu's tragic end. To pave a path to heaven for her sister, at the age of fourteen, she accepted an imperial marriage and married Zhu Jingchen, the powerful Ninth Prince who always wore a mask. The entire capital laughed at the Lin family for marrying above their station, until the wedding day when the mask fell—the face was even more stunning than Prince Bei Jing's, and the man was incredibly doting on his wife and possessed immense wealth. The Jia family wanted to manipulate Daiyu and exploit the Lin family? She retaliated by using mountains of gold and the Grand View Garden to teach them a lesson. A doting sister-protecting woman, together with the powerful Ninth Prince, navigates the Dream of the Red Chamber in the Ming Dynasty, slapping faces and punishing villains—a hilarious and exhilarating adventure!
