After transmigrating into the legitimate son of a wealthy and powerful family, he hadn't even had time to marvel at his good fortune before he heard the family matriarch give him the childhood nickname Baoyu. His surname was Jia.
Jia Lang: ...At least I'm the protagonist.
At first, Jia Lang only wanted to live the carefree life of a happy young wastrel. But life was never that easy.
To keep Jia Zheng from chasing him around and forcing him to study for the imperial examinations, Baoyu worked hard to push his elder brother to better himself. He brought him food and drink every day, and even shared his exercise routine: radio calisthenics.
To solve the Rongguo Mansion's financial crisis, he got into illustrated stories, storybooks, and opera troupes. Turns out the entertainment business was very profitable!
To win the emperor's favor, Jia Lang put his old skills to use and researched organic farming. He introduced fertilizer, and crop yields shot up!
Every so often, he also tinkered with something new, making life quite fulfilling (and chaotic).
Watching the Jia family grow more prosperous by the day, Jia Lang was delighted. Surely they wouldn't be confiscated and sent into exile now.
But then an imperial edict came down, ordering him to become a prince's study companion.
Jia Lang: ...Good grief. He hated studying.
The Jia family was overjoyed. Their Second Master Bao had finally secured a bright future.
Jia Lang could only go to the palace in tears. To his surprise, he not only avoided getting into trouble, but even came home with a wife. Life was blissful (*^▽^*).
[Upcoming Novel] The Duke's Estate's Little Chef
Synopsis: Gu Yan was born into an ancient world as the third daughter of the Duke's household. She had both parents, and even came with a little brother.
Her father was fair-skinned and handsome, but apart from his looks, he was good for nothing. He spent all day at home living off his parents. Her mother was as beautiful as a flower, and loved nothing more than doing her makeup and spending money. Her little brother was fair and adorable, but didn't seem very bright either.
Gu Yan sighed and rolled up her sleeves. Looks like this family is counting on me.
The perfume and beauty cream she concocted were adored by the noble young ladies of the capital.
Even the desserts and delicacies she whipped up on a whim had beautifying effects!
Milk tea and hot pot were huge hits in the capital, too!
As life grew better by the day, Gu Yan was looking forward to quietly enjoying her retirement. Then her unreliable father went and brought home the irresistible young man from the neighboring estate.
Her wastrel father crowed, "Daughter, I snatched a little husband for you!"
The irresistible young man, looking meek and sweet: "Wifey~"
Gu Yan: "..." She was considering murdering her father in broad daylight.
Lu Cenxiao was the legitimate grandson of the Duke of Zhenguo, as well as the nephew-grandson of the Empress Dowager. He was cherished by the powerful people in the palace, which had made him rather proud and pampered. Yet people still flocked to him.
The male lead grew up surrounded by flattery and sweet talk. When noble young ladies tried to approach him and curry favor, Lu Cenxiao never fell for it. He would even lash out at them, turning into a troublesome menace who annoyed everyone. But as soon as he saw Gu Yan from the neighboring estate, he became obedient and gentle.
Lu Cenxiao: Waiting to be fed (good-boy.jpg)
Theme: To survive, refuse to lie around like a salted fish.
To harvest rice in paddy fields, you should first release water to catch fish, and then harvest the rice when the soil is dry, otherwise the rice will fall into the water and you will not be able to harvest it. Does the author really know what it is like to grow rice? Very few people let rice soak in water until harvested...
Judging from the setting, this prince has been defaulted as the next emperor, so who gives them the courage to settle down? The emperor personally collected the debt and still didn't pay back the money. It's okay if you have the ability to fight with powerful officials. Personally, I think this bug is too unreasonable.
It would be good if Yuanchun was not blessed with such a fate. At least he could save his life.
This emperor is really mean and ungrateful. He is too harsh on his ministers.
I think the title of Aunt Lin is super weird. Uncle Lin is a normal title, but Jia Min is the daughter of the Jia family, and it's not like Aunt Xue and the Jia family are just related by marriage, so just call her aunt. There is no other aunt anyway! The same goes for Sister Lin. None of the distant relatives in Xiangyun are called Sister Shi, and Baochai is not called Sister Xue. Only Daiyu, who is truly related by blood to the direct branch of the Jia family, is called Sister Lin. Instead, she becomes an outsider. She was not regarded as a serious relative from the beginning! It can be seen that the so-called dearest aunt and uncle are just empty words.
Will there be many updates after entering V?
Haven't the male protagonist watched Dream of Red Mansions? Don't you know why Jia Jia ransacked her house? Don't you know that Jia Jia didn't pay back the money she owed?
You have to work hard to update one chapter every day. I have been studying for more than a month, and you actually updated me one chapter. My heart aches so much and I really want to read the rest of the story.
You have to work hard, I haven't updated for several days.
I saved up for several days and then it was all gone.
