Title: [Dream of the Red Chamber] The Duke's Mansion's Legitimate Eldest Daughter-in-Law

Zhang Yuanzhi had only just come to terms with the fact that she'd transmigrated when her engagement was broken off on the grounds that she had observed mourning for too long.

Fine! No problem!

She had no interest in a fickle lover who was already entangled with someone else despite having a fiancée.

Two years after her mourning period ended, she heard that her newly chosen fiancé was Jia She, heir to the Rongguo Mansion...

She spat out her tea.

The serious blurb:

While everyone in the Jia family was exhausting themselves trying to curry favor with Prince Beijing and Prince Nan'an, Lin Guanyu had already broken a prince's leg.

While Xue Pan was still afraid of being disciplined by his maternal uncle Wang Ziteng, Lin Guanyu had already become chummy with Wang Ziteng's only son.

Daiyu: You bullied me! I'm telling my sister!

Baoyu jumped in fright: Spare me, Sister Guanyu! QAQ

Lin Guanyu: ...Am I really that scary?

Wang Qi: Not at all. My wife is the cutest! Mwah!

Lin Guanyu: ...Get lost.

Wang Qi sighed: Alas, if I leave, who else could marry you? The emperor has berated the seventh, eighth, and ninth princes for having less spirit than you, a young woman. Do you know what that means? No man in the whole capital is as handsome as you.

Lin Guanyu: Are you saying you're not as handsome as me either?

Wang Qi: I'll take care of looking pretty, la la la!

Lin Guanyu: ...

In one very long sentence: The heroine is the most handsome person in the story, while the hero is pretty as a flower.

Notes: The male and female leads are both original characters. The author writes without much thought, so please don't nitpick. Characters may be out of character. No score-settling.

Warnings: This story has many original settings, original characters, and original plotlines, so many that fans of the original may want to hit someone. Lady Wang is portrayed negatively, Daiyu is paired with an original character, and Lin's future brother-in-law won't pursue an official career. Also, neither lead is particularly lovable at the beginning. If you don't like it, let's part ways here. Thanks.
