An Internet Celebrity's Guide to Raising Kids and Making a Fortune in Ancient Times

[Complete. My new novel, “I Got Rich After Getting a Life Skills System,” launches next door on April 5. Please add it to your reading list!] Chen Meifang, an influencer specializing in traditional cuisine, transmigrated while watching a livestream. She woke up as the worst kind of country wife in an ancient town. A young unmarried girl in her prime had become a mother of three overnight. A little girl before her had been spoiled rotten, while a little boy silently sat in the corner drawing circles. There was also a plain, honest shopkeeper for a husband. Her country family occasionally came around to mooch off her, and there were plenty of awful people and conflicts in her husband’s family. At least her biased mother-in-law was biased toward her own family. System: Host, hurry up and watch videos to learn skills. Get the shop up and running, and take care of your food, clothing, housing, and transportation. “Ding-dong! Congratulations, Host, on making braised pork. You’ve earned a portion of red chili peppers.” “Ding-dong! Congratulations, Host, on successfully making brown sugar. You’ve earned cotton seeds.” “Ding-dong! Congratulations, Host...” A sweet little girl’s voice sounded beside her. “Mama, Mama, hurry up! Let’s go buy butterfly hairpins!” A boy hid in the corner, his eyes brimming with tears. A chubby one-year-old was bawling in bed. Enough talk. She’d better raise the kids first. * 1. Men and women are equal. Treat everyone fairly. 2. This story is entered in the “Science and Technology Make Our Country Strong” writing contest. If you have any nutrient solution, my dears, remember to send me some! [Reason for entry: Guided by the System, the heroine spreads modern cuisine and advances culinary development in ancient times, introducing advanced production techniques and boosting productivity.] Blurb revised on September 2. “I Got Rich After Getting a Life Skills System” launches April 5 Zhao Jingwan woke up one day as the laziest, most gluttonous woman in Zhao Village. Her house was a mess, her kids were filthy, and the family rice jar was empty. Luckily, the life-simulation game she used to play had come along with her. “Ding-dong! Sweep the floor once to earn half a jin of rice.” “Ding-dong! Wipe the table once to earn half a head of Chinese cabbage.” “Ding-dong! Wash one piece of clothing to earn a small piece of braised pork.” “Ding-dong! Give a little one a bath to earn a small mirror.” The people of Zhao Village noticed that Zhao Jingwan, the laziest woman in the village, had recently started keeping things clean. Her house was bright and tidy, her kids wore clean clothes, and the rich aroma of meat often wafted from her home. Zhao Jingwan’s family grew rich. * Zhao Jinsheng was rushing home after a long business trip. He thought the family rice jar would be empty and that his wife and son must be starving. But when he opened the door, he saw: His wife eating a steaming bowl of rice, and his son gnawing on a braised pig’s trotter. Zhao Jinsheng, confused: Has the world turned into a fantasy story? Zhao Jinsheng, who always thinks his family is poor and that he needs to work hard to earn money, x Zhao Jingwan, who does little chores every day and somehow gets rich. Theme: When you come to a river, a bridge will appear. Only hard work can solve the problems in front of you!
