Next up: "Father and Son Take the Imperial Exams Together". The blurb is on my profile. Please follow!
When Shi Yi woke up, he discovered that he had transmigrated into a novel about the imperial exams as a cannon-fodder male supporting character.
In the original, the supporting character was a dispensable tool, destined to provide the protagonist with a face-slapping moment after he passed the imperial exams, then make a glorious exit.
After transmigrating and assessing the gap between himself and his enemies, Shi Yi decisively chose the broad road to success: enter the academy, promote the imperial exams, find a renowned teacher, and embark on an official career.
But as he continued on his way, Shi Yi looked back and realized that the original protagonist, who had been entangled with him all along, had now been left far behind. So what was the point of becoming an official now?
Of course, to get promoted, make a fortune, and keep climbing!
[Note]: This story is set in an alternate history, with the Song Dynasty as its reference. Some things will certainly be inaccurate, but I'll do my best to make them logical. No nitpicking, please. Thank you!
*Forthcoming story: Father and Son Take the Imperial Exams Together
Chu Xing transmigrated. When he opened his eyes, he found himself a tiny three-foot-tall child wearing a bellyband. But that wasn't even the worst part. The worst part was that, according to the memories of this body, his parents and grandparents had all died, and he was now living with his eight-year-old youngest uncle.
Even worse, the funeral had just ended, and his seven aunts and eight uncles were already eyeing the three large tiled-roof rooms where he lived.
Just as he felt struck by lightning, he saw his young uncle struggling to carry a bucket of water to the kitchen.
Still bleary-eyed and unsure what to do, he heard the other boy call out, "Xingxing, if you're awake, play for a bit. Dinner will be ready soon."
"Xingxing?" Chu Xing's eyes widened in shock. Wasn't this body's name "Chu Ting"?
He called out uncertainly, "Dad?"
Chu Zhenyuan immediately turned around in shock.
From then on, the Chu family established itself under a new name, sold snacks, opened workshops and a private school, and prospered.
Meanwhile, Chu Xing fed the cats and teased the dogs, herded cattle and caught chickens. He urged his old man to work hard while enjoying his youth as he pleased.
This life continued until he turned six. Chu Zhenyuan, who had passed the county-level exam at the age of twelve, caught Chu Xing trying to sneak out and play. "You're six now. It's time to grow up and start studying!"
Chu Xing: "You're doing this to get back at me!" He felt the terror of being ruled by his father as a child. "It's over! Somebody save me, save me!"
The Chu family producing two top scorers in the imperial exams was unprecedented in the Jing Dynasty. At first, everyone thought Chu Zhenyuan was peerless, devastatingly handsome, and utterly unique. Then they met Chu Xing and found that he outdid even his father.
This story is also known as "My Dad Hasn't Hit Me in Three Days," "My Young Old Dad," and "I Just Want to Be a Rich Second-Generation Good-for-Nothing"

Theme: Face difficulties head-on and love life.
I don't know why I suddenly thought that the woman might be a human trafficker, pretending to be a relative of the child and taking the drowning child away... This is called a game within a game.
Aha? Emperor Jing's operation was to first kill the official's legitimate son to create hatred for the male protagonist, and then recruit a minister to protect the male protagonist? ? ? I always feel that the operations are not like those of a far-sighted emperor, and it is easy to alert others.
Aribadi, this is a very sincere question. Is this chapter really ugly? Where is the lightning point? (The deadline for inquiries is 24:00. If there is no answer, I will delete it after the deadline. If no one answers, I will understand it myself)
What other good thing can you think of that removes the mother and leaves the child?
It sucks, it's too hasty and lacks details. Finally, I'll just end it casually because I'm in a hurry.
Why does the male protagonist brother call the male protagonist eldest brother? His eldest sister also calls the male protagonist brother and eldest brother. Does the author have some misunderstanding about the names of brothers? It seems so confusing.
Why do we keep calling him number one? ? At first, this title was acceptable even if you didn't understand it. After all this time, hasn't the protagonist corrected other people's slips of the tongue? If word spreads about it, it will also affect the reputation. The clan members are calling the number one scholar every day.
Waiting for Shangguan to confiscate the family and exterminate the clan
The male protagonist is taking a step too far. He only takes 10%, which is equivalent to breaking the unspoken rules of rent collection. Moreover, the male protagonist has little power now, so he is a bit worried.
