The Down-and-Out Young Master

Updates will begin once the manuscript reaches 100,000 characters! Question: What’s it like to catch the transmigration trend and become a young lady in ancient times? Helan Ci: Thanks for asking. I’m on the run. My father and brother have died, leaving me with a whole family of elderly people, women, and children. I’m already thinking about making a break for it! The Helan family had been a scholarly clan for generations, but gradually fell into decline during the Zhaoxu era. Forced to leave the capital and return to their hometown to survive, they were ambushed by bandits along the way and suffered terrible losses. The thirteen-year-old young master, Helan, managed to evade the enemy’s blades with his intellectually disabled twin sister, but accidentally fell off a cliff and died on the spot. Helan Ci had only just transmigrated when she arrived. Her brother, who looked almost exactly like her, was clearly dead. The surviving Old Madam came rushing over with soldiers and mistook her at a glance. “My poor Ci’er, you were born with an intellectual disability, and now Heaven has taken your life, too!” To preserve the family’s holdings, the Helan family needed a male head of the household in this generation. The family head was dead, and the Helan clan couldn’t afford to lose its young master as well. From then on, the Helan family had no more Helan Ci, their intellectually disabled young lady. They had only Helan Ci, their fallen young master. Theme: When all hope seems lost, a bright future may be just around the corner.
