The Female Side Character's Career in Raising Poisonous Insects

Irreverent blurb: I'm the best at Gu among the younger generation in my village. The moment I decided to write this book, I also decided to share all the Gu-raising techniques I've learned in my life with the world!

Serious blurb: Chen Nian had just opened her own pet shop when she transmigrated to a completely unfamiliar world.

Here, Taoist priests could drive corpses, cultivate the Way to extend their lives, and even ascend to immortality.

The Tujia Tima could perform the Three Seizures witchcraft, earning everyone's reverence.

The Miao Badai could use Gu to control people's hearts and protect Miao villages. They could even make someone's bowels rupture without sending a single soldier.

Chen Nian had transmigrated into Siyu, a nobody in a Miao village who caught bugs, planted herbs, and made Gu. She was the lowliest of underlings.

The original Siyu had ambitions as high as the sky. She wasn't content to spend her whole life catching bugs. She wanted to make Gu, raise Gu, and then use Gu, becoming the greatest Badai of all. Instead, she died at the hands of a poisonous insect.

Now that Chen Nian had become Siyu, she had no interest in learning Gu or becoming a Badai. She'd rather finish her bug-catching tasks on time and spend her free time growing flowers and herbs. What could be more relaxing?

Who knew the poisonous plants she grew would flourish so well, producing all kinds of powerful insects? Put them in a vessel and they'd become Gu, loyal only to Siyu...

After winning a few Gu battles, Siyu's insects proved unbeatable, and she somehow became a famous Miao Badai far and wide...

After winning a few rounds of witchcraft and Gu duels, Siyu came out on top again. Even the Tima from nearby Tujia villages treated her with respect...

Onlookers were all curious: how could a bug catcher like Siyu always raise Gu that produced a Gu King, raise Gu with such incredible power, and even use Gu from a thousand miles away?

Siyu: You might not believe me, but all I wanted at first was to grow flowers, keep pets, and take it easy.

Blurb: Dong Jiarou married a man who married up, and her life after marriage was a complete mess.

She woke up as Dong'e Jiarou, the legitimate wife of the Ninth Prince, Aisin Gioro Yinzhen, and a pitiable woman everyone in the palace shook their heads over.

The Ninth Prince doted on his side consort, Wanyan. The Ninth Prince was often away all night. The Ninth Prince loved spending money but hated managing the household. She could spend as much money as she wanted... She'd successfully achieved the life of a beautiful, carefree woman with money to spend and a husband who never came home.

On top of that, when she went to the palace to pay her respects, her parents-in-law showered her with gifts. They were the dream in-laws she never dared hope for!

History was proceeding along its original course. Jiarou realized she couldn't just sit around and wait for trouble. She needed to keep a fallback option, so she began seriously running the shops under her management.

She'd only planned to secretly save up some private funds, but things got out of hand. Her business grew bigger and bigger, and her fortune kept expanding. Even the Ninth Prince stopped by to learn from her, holding her in the highest regard...
