A Whole Family Transmigrates into a Spoiled Brat

An epidemic sent the busy Chu family back to their old house in the mountains. They hadn't even finished eating through their stockpile of food when they and the old house, its walls shedding plaster in the wind, transmigrated together. They had transmigrated into a family of good-for-nothings in Shoushan Village, the sort who would sell their grandfather's fields. The whole family had squandered their ancestral fortune and become notorious in the village for looking prosperous on the surface. They were wondering how to sell the run-down house and make a getaway when they found a ledger inside. They could only return to their technologically advanced world if they paid off their ancestors' debts. Faced with a mountain of astronomical figures, the Chu family had no choice but to roll up their sleeves and work hard to repay what they owed. In his previous life, Chu Huamao could only make wobbly wooden stools. He scratched his head. "I can do carpentry." Fu Huaying, who had only ever grown ginger and garlic on the balcony, mumbled, "I can farm." Eldest sister Chu Ling said, "Don't look at me! I'm a hairpin maker, but my skills aren't any use here." Second sister Chu Zhen timidly raised her hand. "I can wash, cut, and style pets... I can do a few other things, too..." Little cabbage Chu Huai wondered: Does rolling up our sleeves and working hard have to be my job again? Chu Zhen blinked and assigned him a task in a booming voice: "All you have to do is study... We'll take care of the rest!" Though she was a jack-of-all-trades and master of none, she had a golden finger, useless as it might be. If she didn't know how to do something, she'd study until she did! One person can't shoulder a thousand-jin load, but many people together can move ten thousand mountains. This is the story of a family of fake good-for-nothings rediscovering what it means to be a family and to live! Reader's guide: 1. The dynasty is fictional. Please don't compare it to real history. Just enjoy the story. 2. Chu Huai also has plenty of viewpoint chapters, so he should count as a protagonist, too. 3. The male lead appears late and has a small role, so read with caution if that bothers you.
