Updates at 9 p.m. If there isn't an update, I'll ask for a leave of absence.

Blurb One:

As an emperor, Chu Yue felt he had done a fairly decent job.

He rose at the mao hour and went to bed at the zi hour, conscientiously fulfilling his duties every day.

As a result, he managed to die young. TVT

When he opened his eyes again, he had become an unfilial son in the 1970s.

As luck would have it, he had been kicked out of the family the day before, leaving with his wife and children and nothing to their name.

A thatched hut, a thatched bed, and a drafty window hanging on the wall.

Not enough to eat, not enough to wear, and two mouths to feed besides his own.

Chu Yue: I can't bear this hardship!!!

Wait, what?

Maybe there's still hope. He can still enter his own imperial study!!!

Blurb Two:

The late emperor has appeared in a vision!!!

The new emperor, Chu Yuan, discovered that the memorials he left behind were all approved by the next morning and arranged neatly on his desk. The handwriting was unmistakably that of his imperial father!

But it seemed this wasn't free. His father was asking for payment?!

Fortunately, the things he wanted weren't anything unusual.

Just ten jin of white flour, a few plates of pastries, and a few chickens and ducks. Even if Chu Yuan supplied them every day, he could easily afford it!

So Chu Yuan happily coasted through his life as emperor and enjoyed a blissful little life!

Then his father gave him a terrible scolding. QAQ

Blurb Three:

There's big news in Chu Family Village!

The family of Chu Yue, who had been kicked out of their home, was doing better and better!

They ate and drank like kings every day, and were even moving into town!

Chu Yue: Good grief, there's nothing to envy. It's just that in my previous life I had a useless son. =.=

Chu Yuan: QAQ

P.S.

1. This is a lighthearted slice-of-life story. The author's logic is terrible, so just read it for fun.

2. The protagonist is not perfect! The protagonist is not perfect! The protagonist is not perfect!

3. There are many personal liberties taken throughout. Readers who care about historical accuracy should proceed with caution.

4. Please be gentle if you spot problems. I'll read the comments.

Upcoming novel:

Jiang Yuxiu is the belle of the cotton mill. As the factory director's youngest daughter, she was spoiled growing up and became a notorious prima donna in the factory community.

She won't eat coarse grains, wants sugar water to drink, and will only eat lean meat, turning her nose up at fatty meat because it's too greasy.

The only thing anyone can praise is her cooking, which she learned because she couldn't stand the food at home.

Factory Director Jiang couldn't take it anymore. Worried his pampered daughter would never find a husband, he packed her off overnight to marry the soldier son of an old comrade-in-arms, the childhood betrothed of Jiang Yuxiu.

Jiang Yuxiu was so worried that night she couldn't sleep.

Her comfortable life was about to be over. What a worry!

Han Chen knew the childhood betrothed he was supposed to marry was a notorious prima donna from the cotton mill. Before the wedding, his father repeatedly told him to treat his new wife well. She was the youngest daughter of an old comrade-in-arms and had never suffered a day in her life.

Han Chen readily agreed, but made up his mind that whether she was the youngest daughter or a little demoness, she would have to be as strong as steel and as resolute as iron around him.

A prima donna? He wasn't going to indulge that bad habit.

After they got married,

Jiang Yuxiu wanted water chestnut pastries from the Friendship Store? Buy them!

Jiang Yuxiu wanted clothes made of dacron? Buy them!

Jiang Yuxiu wanted a cotton quilt? Buy one!

Jiang Yuxiu wanted to trade him in for another husband? No way. Absolutely not!

Qin Xiulian had a dream that she was living inside a book.

She knew that the male lead, Han Chen, lived next door with his family. She also knew that in less than half a year, Han Chen would divorce his prima donna wife because he couldn't stand her anymore. And she knew that Han Chen would eventually earn military honors and become a high-ranking official, with his career soaring ever higher.

Qin Xiulian put all her effort into making herself noticed by Han Chen, hoping that after he divorced, she could become his second wife and the future general's wife.

But as time went on, Qin Xiulian discovered that Han Chen not only hadn't divorced his prima donna wife, their relationship had actually grown stronger.

Not only was Han Chen's career going from strength to strength, his prima donna wife had also opened several restaurants...

Qin Xiulian:

What happened to the divorce?

The divorce???

The wonderful life she'd imagined was gone just like that...

Theme: Strive to improve and build a better life.
