My Old Family Home Connects to the Underworld

The Xia family ancestral home has a passage to the Underworld. On the day its doors opened, a crowd rushed up to Xia Tong and asked whether the old house with the sign "Tongtian Temple" belonged to her. Xia Tong nodded. They immediately arranged her employment, then hurriedly paid her a month's wages in advance to show their sincerity. They were practically on their knees begging her: "Ancestress, please don't leave us!" She hadn't even graduated from college, and she already had a steady job passed down through the family. Could life get any better? Dressed in a white dress, Xia Tong stood at the entrance to the old house. Behind her, a crowd waited eagerly for her to open the door. She gave a soft laugh, delighted to have landed a steady job, and pushed open the gates of the old house. The moment the gates opened, a golden beam shot into the sky, like a sharp sword cleaving heaven and earth. The Three Realms stirred. Evil spirits in the Underworld howled, myriad demons soared into the sky, and cultivators in the mortal world bowed with clasped hands, paying their respects from afar to the master of Tongtian Temple! Next Book: The Beauty of the Seventies Reaches for the Stars Blurb: When Zhang Hui woke up, she had returned to the moment she was being pressured into marriage at eighteen. Should she defy her family and marry a poor young man for love, or listen to her parents and marry a mama's boy with a government job? Zhang Hui: ...I'm marrying neither of them! In her previous life, she had admired Zhou Zhen's capabilities and how well he treated her. Despite his predicament of supporting a family of six on one salary, she married him. Raised as a cherished daughter by her parents, she suffered greatly in the Zhou household. Her younger brother-in-law wanted to take her job. Her older sister-in-law was jealous of her beauty and went around telling people she was promiscuous. Her in-laws called her a barren hen. At last, the times improved, and she helped Zhou Zhen go into business, building a fortune together. Then the Zhou family all fought to adopt a son so they could claim her property. Zhou Zhen went even further. His mistress showed up at their door with a baby bump, and Zhang Hui was so furious that she took her daughter and moved far away. Zhang Hui: If I fall into the same trap twice, I must have something wrong with my head. * Her parents: If you're marrying neither of them, who do you want to marry? Zhang Hui: Jiang Mingyan! Jiang Mingyan was a privileged child born into a military compound. He was an expert seconded from the capital to the machinery plant in Yunding County. In her previous life, she had only thought of marrying Zhou Zhen and hadn't noticed Jiang Mingyan's feelings for her. When she needed a technical expert for her company, he helped connect her with the right people. When she went to night school to study accounting, he used his connections to help her. When she needed to find buyers for her company's products, he recommended distribution channels. Even when she died far from home, he was the one who saw her off on her final journey. This man did more than he said. This time, she didn't want to miss out on him. * After Zhang Hui and Jiang Mingyan got together, people around her started looking at her differently. A female coworker gossiped about her: Zhang Hui's gotten herself another new dress this month. Zhang Hui: I'm beautiful, so of course I should dress well. Zhou Zhen: You're just a gold digger. Zhang Hui: That's right, that's right. Not only am I a gold digger, I'm also fickle. A handsome man like Jiang Mingyan is the perfect match for a great beauty like me! Zhang Hui's parents: Sweetheart, it's not quite appropriate to spend his money before you're married. Zhang Hui: We're going to get married anyway. There's no need to stand on ceremony between family. Zhang Hui's parents: Don't be so domineering. Let Xiao Jiang say something. Jiang Mingyan held his fiancee's hand and smiled the whole time. "I'll do whatever Huihui says!" Jiang Mingyan's friends: ...Beauty has blinded you, Jiang Mingyan. Wake up already! Theme: Work hard, and live happily!
