Flowers Bloom on the Other Shore [Dream of the Red Chamber Crossover]

If you could become anyone in Dream of the Red Chamber, who would you choose to have a good time?

Wang Xifeng, who lost her entire dowry and eventually had her own daughter sold?

Lin Ruhai, who left behind an orphaned daughter after his family line ended, leaving her at the mercy of the cruel world?

The disgraced crown prince, who never got to show his face and whose coffin was even given away as a gift?

Or Grandmother Jia, trapped in the Rongguo Mansion day after day?

Lin Xi transmigrates into each character in Dream of the Red Chamber, with every role having its own distinct traits. The different points in time at which she enters the story also have different effects on the characters.

To quote a reader's review: “This is a leisurely novel worth reading quietly, and a good book worth reading among leisurely novels.”

A note: This story has a golden finger, a small one; there's some angst, but not much... Its original title was Survival in Dream of the Red Chamber.

After Dream of the Red Chamber comes Water Margin, with Hu Sanniang as the protagonist. The empress version of Hu Sanniang overturns the history of Liangshan and the Northern Song dynasty.

Investiture of the Gods features a fox-spirit version of Empress Jiang helping King Zhou of Shang, who becomes a ghost cultivator, get revenge. (A short transitional story.)

In Three Kingdoms, the real Wu Guotai, with a different soul, helps Sun Ce, the Little Conqueror, ascend the throne. A host of famous Three Kingdoms characters make brilliant appearances, with Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang shining side by side.

The final story is a mostly historically based tale set in the final days of the Ming dynasty. The Carpenter Emperor, the Tianqi Emperor, starts by executing Wei Zhongxian, then leads Ming officials, all real historical figures, through one disaster after another and toward a golden age.

In short: No matter where you end up, live well, no matter how many hardships you face.

This is a disguised female-empowerment story about a recently retired older woman who transmigrates into Dream of the Red Chamber, inhabits both male and female identities, and works hard to stay alive, live well, and earn merit.

The complete 3.08-million-character novel is finished. It once made the featured list and spent several months at the top of the rankings for derivative fiction. I hope you'll enjoy it.

This novel won me the 2018 Year-End Banquet Award for New Author in the Derivative Fiction category. There were 12 winners in 2018. (Secretly feeling rather pleased with myself.)

My next novel, A Little Distance Between Us, is complete.

Through the growth of several young female doctors just starting their clinical careers, especially female surgeon Li Min, the story

vividly and realistically records the everyday lives of a group of clinicians in a provincial hospital in northern China in the early 1990s.

Their joys and sorrows, and what is and isn't worth it in life, are all condensed into these millions of words.

A labor of love refined over many years, it depicts the daily lives of three generations of clinicians in the early 1990s, during that special period of great historical change.

Their efforts to build happy lives, their conflicts, cooperation and mutual support, and their marriages.

Read it closely, and you'll find this is a different kind of Jinjiang novel.
