Ever since Miao Yu transmigrated into the Qing Dynasty as Dong'e, Ninth Prince's Consort, her world had turned gray. She knew all too well how Ninth Prince's story ended.
Having been a slacker in her previous life, Miao Yu faced the situation and said, "Don't involve me. I just want to slack off."
Miao Yu rolled right out of bed. Slacking off was one thing, but she still had to make money~
And so Miao Yu began her life of eating, drinking, and making money.
While the women in other courtyards competed for favor, she ate.
While the women in other courtyards bickered, she ate.
After eating, she got to work figuring out how to get rich.
Ninth Prince thought his consort was rather unusual, so he kept an eye on her from time to time and started spending more time in her courtyard. The longer he stayed, the more at ease he felt.
As they spent more time together, they ended up building a happy life, making money and doing business together!
[Ninth Prince has two secrets]:
1. He transmigrated here, but Miao Yu doesn't know.
2. Ever since he arrived, bad luck has followed him everywhere, but whenever he's by Miao Yu's side, good things keep happening.
[A little scene]
The other women in the residence noticed that lately, the prince had become even colder than before. He stuck to his principal consort every day and didn't even spare the others a glance.
At first, some of them tried to stir up trouble and compete for his favor.
But little by little, they realized that even if they weren't favored, the prince wouldn't skimp on their material comforts.
From then on, the women in the household entered full-on fun mode.
Lady Lang: "I used to stir up trouble out of jealousy, but now I think the consort and the prince are perfect for each other. All we have to do is ship them." (Her gaze is resolute as she locks in her favorite couple.)
Lady Wanyan: "Good food, good drink, and a good time are all I need. Sister Liu and I go out every day, and we're so happy."
All the ladies: "Who understands how wonderful it is not having to work so hard to compete for favor?!" (Tears in their eyes.)
P.S.
1. Both leads transmigrate. Both are sexually chaste.
2. A slow-paced, everyday-life story with no golden finger and little inner-courtyard scheming. The other women prefer to take it easy and slack off. A sweet, pampering romance with a bit of silly humor.
3. This story is set in a partly fictionalized world, and Ninth Prince's fate is changed in the end. Some events involving him therefore won't happen.
4. Many details are invented. Readers who want strict historical accuracy should steer clear. The setting is partly fictionalized, so please don't argue. You're free to come and go as you please; no need to announce it.
Here's a preview of another story~
Some people are like rainbows. You only know they're there once you've met them., The film Flipped
Blurb
When Qiu Sese was fifteen, she fell in love at first sight with a boy at the bus station.
In that moment, everything around her faded into the background. Only he shone like a rainbow.
But the only place Qiu Sese could ever see the boy was on that bus.
When she was seventeen, the boy disappeared from her world for good and stopped taking that bus.
Qiu Sese gave herself one afternoon. She sat in a pavilion on a hill in the park, ready to end the secret crush nobody knew about.
Just as she had made up her mind to forget him and turned to go home, the boy's face appeared before her.
He was leaning over a stone table, his hair tousled and his expression languid.
Rain began pouring down from who knew when, and grew heavier by the moment.
Gathering her courage, Qiu Sese looked at the boy and said the first words they had ever exchanged:
"It's raining so hard. Want me to walk you down the hill?"
The boy sat up straight and smiled, his eyes curving. "Sure."
*
After walking the boy down the hill that day, Qiu Sese finally learned his name: Qin Nanzhi.
On her eighteenth birthday, Qiu Sese didn't invite anyone. Instead, she went back to that pavilion and sat there quietly by herself.
At some point, Qin Nanzhi sat down beside her.
"I want to give you a birthday present."
"What?"
"I want to give you myself." Qin Nanzhi quietly moved a little closer.
Qiu Sese's heart raced. Her face flushed, and her eyes grew red.
The sun was bright, the breeze gentle, and a rainbow had finally entered her world.
*
On the day of the college entrance exams, Qiu Sese stood outside the exam hall, trying to calm herself down. A glance in passing caught sight of Qin Nanzhi among the bustling crowd.
Overjoyed and surprised, Qiu Sese walked up to him and asked softly, "What are you doing here?"
Qin Nanzhi leaned in and whispered, "Me? I skipped class to keep you company."
His voice was deep and pleasant. Qiu Sese blushed from her ears to her cheeks.
[I didn't fall for you on a whim. I've been planning this for a long time. What you thought was a chance encounter was carefully arranged by me.]
[May everyone with a secret crush eventually get the person they wish for.]
"But every once in a while you find someone who's iridescent, and when you do, nothing will ever compare. Some people are like rainbows. You only know they're there once you've met them."
The film Flipped
P.S.
1. Both leads are sexually chaste, each other's first love, and have secretly loved each other. The male lead pursues the female lead.
2. The male lead is one year older than the female lead. Because he repeated a grade, he is one grade below her, so he accompanies her during her college entrance exams first, and then she accompanies him.
Theme: Keep striving to live
Did the male protagonist travel through time? When did you wear it? Why do you still have so many concubines after traveling through time? Is that not as good as the ancients?
"I'm so lucky that I fell down" is a big thorn in the side of the author~ Do I follow? Me and? Choose one
"I want to take a small bite" is a big bug for the author~ next bite
This dumbfounded chicken has appeared several times... If I like it so much, why not change Ruo to Yes... I can't understand the purpose of repeated emphasis, to reflect the protagonist's foolishness and wisdom and to express his homesickness.
I laugh so hard that I want to die, but society is afraid of being like
