Up next: Reborn as a Legitimate Daughter in a Historical Romance, The General's Reborn White Moonlight. The blurb is at the very bottom. Spinning and leaping, please add it to your reading list~
[Blurb]
Rong Ke transmigrated into a household-intrigue novel, becoming the true-born daughter and supporting character of a duke's family who had been abandoned in the countryside. Right now, she was living in a village, penniless and with nothing to her name.
The duke's family sent a steward to fetch her, coaxing her, "Come home, young lady, and you'll enjoy riches beyond your wildest dreams."
Rong Ke had read the original novel and didn't believe a word of it. What awaited her was a world of melodramatic misfortune. In the book, after she was brought back to the duke's residence, she had to marry a mute prince in place of the false daughter. She repeatedly lost the household battles and was humiliated, and ultimately was exiled and starved to death.
She decisively refused to return and fight over the household, choosing instead to raise pigs and make a fortune with her own hands.
Why bother with household intrigue? Roast suckling pig, crispy pork bites, sweet-and-sour ribs, and braised pork knuckle with rock sugar were much better!
#Raising Pigs Beats Household Intrigue#
#Better to Be a True Millionaire Than a True-Born Daughter#
Rong Ke started by raising piglets, then opened a restaurant. Later, she even established a nationwide chain of pork specialty stores, bringing in silver like snow year after year.
Meanwhile, the duke's family, who had once mocked her for raising pigs, had their title revoked and their estate confiscated. The once-superior false daughter became so destitute that she had to calculate whether she could afford a bowl of meat soup.
The duke's family and the false daughter were green with envy. They had once looked down on her, but now they both came back to beg.
The duke's father: My dear Keke, come home. I'll help you run your business.
The false daughter: I'm the daughter of the Rong family. Let's switch our identities back.
Rong Ke: Don't @ me. This year's sausages haven't been smoked yet.
[The Male Lead]
Xie Xun was the seventh prince of the current dynasty. Although he suffered from a speech impediment that made him seem mute, he commanded the empire's secret guards and had information on the private affairs of every court official. No noble or minister dared not fear him. His power had grown too great, so to earn the emperor's trust, he planned to marry the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Weiguo, who had been abandoned in the countryside.
But this young lady, Rong Ke, would rather raise pigs than return to the capital to marry him.
Could he, a dignified prince, really be worth less than a pig?
Xie Xun grew more and more invested, and fell deeper and deeper in love.
People in the capital said Rong Ke was a crude, rude country girl who schemed for money. But he knew his betrothed was a kind-hearted young lady with great ambitions.
Though it came late, the truth was that Xie Xun, a dignified prince, eventually began competing with the pigs for her affection.
A Few Friendly Notes:
1. A bright, sweet girl x a black-lotus (pretend) mute prince. The male lead is faking his speech impediment.
2. A fictional setting with plenty of authorial liberties.
3. Updated daily.
Up Next: The General's Reborn White Moonlight
In her previous life, Pei Rong lived a miserable life and died an absurd death.
Before marriage, she was the legitimate daughter, yet she listened to her aunt's provocation and constantly fought with her stepmother. After marriage, as the proper wife, she personally welcomed her husband's concubine into the household as his second wife. Yet when disaster struck, her dear husband and dear younger sister abandoned her, gravely ill in bed, and fled.
At the brink of death, the only person who came to save her was a young general who called her Auntie.
Reborn, Pei Rong only wanted to avoid wicked people and repay her benefactor.
After searching everywhere, she found her benefactor in her maternal uncle's stable. In her previous life, he had been a valiant warrior who rode with a sword at his side. Now he was merely an abused child, with only a pair of bright, star-like eyes revealing a wolf's gaze.
Pei Rong led him out of the stable, gave him a name, taught him to read, and sent him to learn martial arts, all to repay his kindness and help Wei Xuan make something of himself early.
Wei Xuan worked hard to rise in the world, but what he really wanted was to marry his young aunt once he had made something of himself.
Later, Wei Xuan, the mighty General of the Cavalry who shook the world, had once been no more than an illegitimate son confined to a stable. During his bleak, sunless youth, the only warmth he ever received came from that young aunt from the Pei family.
Wei Xuan spent his life fighting across the four seas, crossing mountains of blades and seas of blood, all to seize supreme power and cherish the woman he loved as his most precious treasure.
*
Pei Rong was prone to feeling cold. Every winter, her hands and feet turned icy, so after she got a cat, she held it every day as a living hand warmer. Wei Xuan was terribly envious.
One morning, he tossed the cat out of the room and nestled in Pei Rong's arms, refusing to go to court. "Being a general is no fun. I'd rather be the cat in Auntie's arms."
Coming Soon: Delivering Takeout in a Mecha
Food blogger Wei Qinglan accidentally transmigrated into an interstellar world. To get living expenses, she enrolled in a military academy, and her unconventional training methods made her a freshman sensation. In short, at the military academy, while everyone else fought, she ate.
At the academy's freshman selection trials, everyone else was trying to win the championship by killing a sixty-four-legged, S-rank star beast, the octopus.
Wei Qinglan: This octopus has so many legs. They'd make great takoyaki.
At the academy's mecha competition, everyone else aimed to win and bring glory to their school.
Wei Qinglan: There are so many people watching. If I set up a stall and sell fried chicken strips, business will be great.
Before long, Wei Qinglan's cooking conquered the entire interstellar world. Her food was not only delicious, but also enhanced mental strength. Humans and nonhumans from across the stars all scrambled to take a number and line up for a chance at her love.
Before ending his engagement to Wei Qinglan, the son of an interstellar fuel tycoon declared that she was worthless after losing her noble status. But after trying chicken frames once, he announced across the interstellar network, "Noble status is trash. Chicken frames are the only thing worth loving."
A contemporary mecha master had refused to take an apprentice his entire life, and his top mecha-manufacturing techniques had nearly been lost. But after trying spicy bullfrog once, he offered his life's work with both hands, asking only for a lifetime membership at Wei Qinglan's shop.
The imperial crown prince's motto for the first half of his life was, "I will cast aside anything that keeps me from becoming stronger." For the second half, it was, "I will cast aside anything that keeps my wife from eating."
The only one whose attitude never changed was Leo, who appeared to be a robotic cat but was actually a shard of the crown prince's soul. Before a meal, he told Wei Qinglan, "Wifey, hug me." After a meal, it was still, "Wifey, hug me!"
Theme: Escape poverty with your own hands and build wealth through hard work.
King Duan: I'm here to withdraw money for my wife, so happy! I'm awesome
In fact, I think this ending is good. Both the male and female protagonists stick to their ideals, but it is not very realistic and too idealistic. Moreover, the emotional scenes are relatively blunt, but it's okay, just like a flower.
The emotional line is a bit stiff
Is this ending fucking crazy? The cerebral palsy prince treated the male protagonist like this, and in the end the male protagonist gave up the throne to the prince because of the female protagonist? It's so fucking disgusting. It's a waste to spend 3 yuan to read this kind of article. After all, time is money, you idiot.
It's a little unreasonable. The scale is so big. If swine fever really happens, wouldn't you lose all your money?
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah
Not many people see it, it's quite beautiful... The chase is over! Although it is short, it has a very happy ending. The male protagonist's ideals and choices are a plus! The heroine and I are truly soul mates!
The pork shop is really delicious!!!
It felt like it ended a little too quickly, but it was okay and fun.
Ahhhh! It's an update!
