[Couple: chubby Golden Crow psychic medium x descendant of the Yi clan and interstellar guardian] Blurb for the new story My Inheritance: An Ancient Poetry Manor: Xu Xiang is a member of a family of war gods. Because he's an exceptionally lazy little chubby guy, everyone thinks he has an intellectual disability. His family is disgraced, and the whole internet mocks him. It turns out he'd been switched at birth. After trading places with the real young master of the Xu family, Xu Xiang inherits his birth parents' run-down manor. He plans to keep lazing around and rotting away, but then he discovers... [You are the sole inheritor of Earth. Carry on the legacy of the Ancient Poetry Manor System.] Xu Xiang: "I'm lazy. I don't want to." [System: It has been detected that you will develop obesity in two years and die of illness in five. Increase the manor's prosperity and earn bystander shock points to gain more days of life.] Xu Xiang: ? Xu Xiang only wants to be lazy, not die, so he starts reciting poetry: "Goose, goose, goose! Neck bent, singing to the sky!" An egg appears in the manor. With great effort, Xu Xiang hatches three geese, and the goslings flap about, honking as they fly. "A small bridge, flowing water, and a family home!" With guidance from the Mohist School, Xu Xiang renovates the dilapidated bridge until it looks brand new. A lively stream flows endlessly through the manor. He collapses, exhausted. At noon, Xu Xiang gets hungry. "A jade platter of rare delicacies, worth ten thousand coins!" The Culinary Ancestor appears and teaches Xu Xiang how to cook. Every dish is a long-lost recipe from ancient Earth, delicious in sight, smell, and taste. Xu Xiang suddenly discovers the joy of having a manor system. The house is falling apart? It doesn't matter. "The carved balustrades and jade steps should still remain!" Daily routine: "The original palace tone shifts to the yu mode; its elegance and serenity reveal a divine grace." Xu Xiang plays the qin, and music from a celestial palace drifts through the air. When Xu Xiang leaves the family of war gods, everyone thinks he's a lost cause and has gone home to scavenge for junk. No one expects to see him again on a livestream: Chubby Xu has built a palace wreathed in immortal aura. He drinks celestial wine and enjoys exquisite delicacies, with celestial maidens dancing around him. He even snacks on a peach of immortality now and then, living more happily than an immortal. Onlookers: ??? Everyone said this fake young master was lazy and greedy, and would come begging for money within a year. So how come, in less than a year, even the royal family wants to visit the manor he's built? Theme: Bringing the deeds and spirit of historical figures back to life
