Back to 1993 to Make a Fortune

Main story blurb 1:

Xia Wan wakes up inside a historical novel set in the 1990s, as a disposable female side character who is hopelessly obsessed with the male lead and eventually dies of depression over him.

Looking at her penniless family, her tearful parents, and her starving younger siblings, Xia Wan waves a hand and declares: Who needs a man? Obviously, she’s going to build a career!

It’s the golden age of the 1990s, with money lying everywhere. She won’t let a man and a few tears slow down her hustle.

She heads south to work, opens a shop, starts a clothing factory, establishes a company, creates a homegrown brand, and helps revive the national industry...

The curious onlookers from the surrounding villages: The Xia family’s eldest daughter went south to work and made a fortune. Maybe we should go too!

Xia Wan’s parents, now rolling in money: Ever since our eldest stopped grieving over that Xu boy, she’s become a whole different person.

Xia Wan’s little brother: Big Sis is so cool. Being rich is great!

Xia Wan’s little sister: Whatever Big Sis says to do, I’ll do!

Blurb 2:

Zhao Weize, Duke of Ying, is twenty years old, tall, poised, and handsome. A cousin of the reigning emperor, he is a promising young man praised throughout Dongjing for his refined looks.

Yet he can’t stand the female physician assigned by the Imperial Medical Academy. First she runs into him on the road and won’t leave him alone, then she sneaks into the academy and barges into his manor to get close to him. Her smiling eyes are full of admiration and affection. How utterly improper!

Being an imperial physician is hard. Being a female physician in Great Song is even harder.

Ever since Miss Zhang accidentally offended the powerful and beloved Duke of Ying during a house call, she’s had no end of trouble. She can’t shake him off, but she can’t afford to offend him either. When necessary, she has to smile every three sentences, nod every five, and offer a compliment every ten. After an hour of hard acupuncture work, all she gets in return is:
