New stories coming soon: I Have No Choice but to Save the Villain Squad and A Substitute Bride, but I'm a Couch Potato. Please take a look QAQ. Your bookmarks are what motivate me to start writing~

The life of the renowned owner of a major cloth shop can be summed up in a single sentence: After her family was destroyed, she married a farmer, abandoned her husband and child to make a comeback, then died after spending all her wealth.
Everyone lamented her tragic fate, but only Yan Lan knew it was destiny. Just before she died, her trusted maid told her that she had transmigrated into this world and knew the story. No matter how hard Yan Lan worked, she was only paving the way for the protagonist.
Suddenly, all the conflicts of the past seemed like a joke. What would have happened if she'd simply lived a quiet life in that little village? It seemed she had never really understood that tall, thoughtful man.
*
There were always gossips who mocked Cheng Xingyun for marrying a wife with nothing but a pretty face, who couldn't tell one grain from another and wouldn't lift a finger around the house. They said the marriage was bound to fall apart.
Yan Lan didn't care. Money could solve every problem.
She was confident that few could match her skill at running a cloth shop. She could recite hundreds of embroidery patterns by heart: outline stitch, chain stitch, French knots, colored embroidery, relief embroidery, couching in gold and silver. It was time to show the neighbors some marvelous new creations.
It would take only half a year to go from selling a little handkerchief to becoming a major shopkeeper again.
With overflowing coffers and a happy life, she'd waited a long time for this day.
1. An important supporting character transmigrates into the story.
2. The male lead appears midway through. He's a nurturing, all-around powerhouse. Click to see a bashful, devoted puppy get teased and blush.
3. A story written to feed my own niche tastes. Please don't throw things at the chef just because it's an unusual dish, thank you orz.

I Have No Choice but to Save the Villain Squad
After Zong Shuzhu died suddenly, she transmigrated into the body of an extravagant princess.
System: You need to save all the villains. Their love will sustain you and keep you alive.
Zong Shuzhu: Easy.
Then the System pulled a brooding, villainous deposed crown prince, a cold and disabled top scholar, and a blind, violent commander out of its pocket.
Zong Shuzhu: That's a problem.
*
The officials of the capital all said the princess had gone mad. She had fallen out with the emperor and Grand Tutor Wen for a bunch of lunatics.
At first, they despised the ridiculous princess just like everyone else. But when Zong Shuzhu actually died, the three of them turned the world upside down searching for her body.
The top scholar and the commander joined forces to slaughter the ministers who had once petitioned for her execution. The deposed crown prince clutched her jade sash, his words steeped in blood and tears:
"You said you wanted lots of love. Was what I gave you not enough?"
*
Zong Shuzhu faked her death and crawled out of her grave, only to find Wen Yuzhou sitting on her tomb, drinking alone before her epitaph.
Perhaps the wine had gone to his head. The usually restrained, proper, and composed Grand Tutor Wen glared at her with bloodshot eyes and demanded:
"You saved them, so why didn't you save me? Do you know how long I've waited for you?"
System: System malfunction. Important character omitted. Save the ultimate villain, Wen Yuzhou.
Zong Shuzhu: I've been fighting him this whole time, and you're telling me I have to save him too? Things are already this messed up. Shouldn't we just start over?
Only later did Zong Shuzhu learn that the proud Grand Tutor Wen had stood on the palace walls time and again, gazing toward the Princess's residence until dawn.
He watched her reach out and pull them from the mire, while leaving him there alone.
Sometimes he wondered when his turn would come. But standing against her, all he could do was pass her by.
--She is a pearl, but she doesn't belong to me.
A Substitute Bride, but I'm a Couch Potato
Yu Donglu was born into the body of the youngest illegitimate daughter of the Vice Minister of Rites. She spent sixteen blissful years lying flat.
One day, her legitimate elder sister threw a fit over an arranged marriage and cried herself blind. The Vice Minister of Rites, already an old man, was so anxious he nearly fainted several times.
The bride was to marry a cruel, crippled prince who suffered from a serious illness. Everyone said he was impotent, unlikely to have children, and not long for this world.
So Yu Donglu, the lazy illegitimate daughter, was pushed into the bridal sedan chair as a substitute bride.
No one knew that beneath her veil, she was grinning from ear to ear.
A big house, good food and drink, a short-lived prince, no sister-in-law or mother-in-law problems. She could keep lying flat.
This was the peak of life!
After marrying into the prince's household, Yu Donglu ate and drank to her heart's content, living the good life as she waited for Xiao Zijin to die.
But after waiting a long time, she didn't get news of Xiao Zijin's death. Instead, she heard that his chronic illness had been cured, and that he was returning after defeating the barbarians and earning military honors.
Yu Donglu: Huh? Wait, this puts me in a really awkward spot.
Theme: Work hard with your own two hands.
I passed by and took a look at the pre-release collections of "I Have to Save the Villain Group" and "Substitute Marriage, But Salted Fish". The collections of the QAQ little angels were the motivation for me to write this article. "I had no choice but to save the villain group" After Zong Suzhu's sudden death, he transformed into a proud and extravagant eldest princess. System: You need to save all the villains and feed on their love to survive. Zong Suzhu: It's a trivial matter Then the system took out the darkened and gloomy deposed prince, the disabled and indifferent Tanhua Lang, and the blind and violent commander from its pocket. Zong Suzhu: big problem All the officials in the capital said that the princess was crazy, and she turned against His Majesty and Taifu Wen because of a group of lunatics. At first they were as disgusted and dismissive of this ridiculous eldest princess as others. But on the day Zong Suzhu died, the three of them searched the world again just to find her body. Tanhualang and the commander teamed up to slaughter the ministers who had asked for her death. The deposed prince held her jade belt and cried every word: "You said you want a lot of love, but am I not giving you enough?" Zong Suzhu faked his death and climbed out of the grave to see Wen Yuzhou sitting on her grave and drinking alone in front of the inscription. Perhaps because of the drunkenness, Mrs. Wen, who had always been self-restrained and polite, calm and self-possessed, actually asked her with red eyes: "Since you saved them, why don't you come and save me? Do you know how long I have been waiting for you?" System: The system failed and missed an important character. Please save the ultimate villain Wen Yuzhou. Zong Suzhu: I have been fighting with him for so long and you tell me that I still have to save him? It's all collapsed like this, why don't we reopen it? Later, Zong Suzhu learned that the aloof Taifu Wen had stood on the palace wall several times, looking in the direction of the eldest princess's mansion until daylight. He watched as she reached out to pull them out of the mud, leaving him alone in it. Sometimes he wonders when it will be his turn, but the only thing he can do is to pass her by. ——She is a pearl, but she doesn't belong to me either. "Substitute Marriage, But Salted Fish" Yu Dong exposed her fetus and gave birth to a daughter in the family of the Minister of Rites. She lived happily for sixteen years. One day, my sister-in-law lost her temper because of her marriage. She cried blindly at home, and the Minister of Etiquette fainted several times because of his age. Just because the person she was marrying was the crippled prince who was seriously ill and cruel. People said that the prince was not healthy enough to have children and he would not live long. So Yu Donglu, a salty fish concubine, was pushed onto the sedan chair for the substitute bride. No one knew that her mouth under the hijab was grinning from ear to ear. A big house, good food and drink, a short-lived prince, no problems with sisters-in-law, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and he can continue to live peacefully. The pinnacle of life! After Yu Donglu got married, she enjoyed the food and drink so much that she just waited for Xiao Zijin to die. But after waiting for a long time, there was no news that Xiao Zijin died, and that Xiao Zijin recovered from his stubborn illness and returned with military merit in his hands. Yu Donglu: Huh? No, you are making it difficult for me.
Is this Jin Wu a flute?
This beast deserves to die, a good death
Congratulations on Kaiwen! I really like the big "Tea House Lady"
Does the male protagonist have another identity?
Zhang Laizi didn't do anything to Ling Niang, right 😭
I beg you, please update more.
Will there be war again?
It seems that doing embroidery requires delicate hands and no calluses. If the back of Aunt Peng's hands is described here as rough, the fabrics Aunt Peng will make in the future may have snagging.
Come on, come on, come on
