The Daughter's Red buried beneath the big locust tree in the Li family's back courtyard eighteen years ago turned into Top Scholar's Red when they dug it up.

A month ago, everyone in Qingyun Town said that Li Yuezhi was a fortunate woman.
Her father could barely lift a load or carry anything, and made a living running a small shop selling paper goods. Her mother was frail and sickly, and Li Yuezhi herself was a delicate young woman. Yet she had caught the eye of Yun, a wealthy gentleman, who wanted her as his daughter-in-law.
On her wedding day, the young master of the Yun family left for the capital to take the imperial examinations. Three years passed without any word from him. When news finally arrived, he had placed third in the palace examination.
A month later, everyone in Qingyun Town lamented that Li Yuezhi was a woman of ill fortune. At the imperial banquet celebrating successful candidates, the Third-Place Scholar was chosen to be the emperor's son-in-law. Citing three years without an heir, he sent her back to her parents' home with a letter of divorce. From then on, the Yun family's immense wealth had nothing to do with her. What could she do? She was just unlucky.
Years later, people in Qingyun Town couldn't help wondering: had the Yun family brought misfortune upon the Li family?
In the years after Li Yuezhi was divorced, her father became the top scholar, her elder brother became the top scholar, her younger brother became the top scholar, her new husband was the top scholar, and her father-in-law had also been the top scholar in his youth.
Even she became the top scholar?!
[Reading Notes]
1. This is a transmigrate into a book story, but aside from her modern memories, the heroine has basically no golden finger. She truly studies for the imperial examinations and becomes the top scholar.
2. The imperial examination system in this story is mainly based on the Ming and Qing dynasties, with some original elements.
3. The main couple is one-on-one.
4. More to be added if I think of anything.
Theme: Seize opportunities, study diligently, and become independent and self-reliant.
Oh(?ω?)Hiahiahia
Why is Li Zhaowen so annoying?
Great work? Please update more.
Hahaha, is this Wu illiterate? Haha
Gone? I'm addicted
Damn, are you still updating?
This plot is a bit strange... The dowry was withheld in the beginning, which can be said to be because the ex-husband's family has become arrogant. The sister-in-law's family here seems to be ordinary people and has no support. She wants to take her daughter away from the in-laws who have done nothing wrong and remarry. She ignores the current environment and is like losing her mind.
Hahahahaha, are you dreaming about Journey to the West?
